About Aurora 携帯電話除菌ボックス

Auroraは、携帯電話向けの除菌ボックス2機種からなるシリーズです。N1モデルは12個のUVC LEDを用いて、スマートフォンの表面と裏面を除菌します。モーター駆動の昇降プラットフォームが上部の開口部から端末を内部へ引き込み、除菌サイクル終了後に再び上昇させて戻します。M1モデルは、紫外線による除菌に加え、フランネル生地で覆われたモーター駆動のクリーニングクロス部品を2つ備え、端末の両面を拭き取ります。クロス部品は取り外して洗濯でき、M1の上面はワイヤレス充電にも対応しています。Auroraは、家庭や公共空間、医療機関での使用を想定しています。

Tags: Ultraviolet disinfection, mobile phone, cleaning，UVC LED
Production Technology: N1 has high-intensity ultraviolet rays. M1 The surface of the cleaning component is wrapped with flannelette, which can be used for a long time, and the flannelette can also be cleaned separately.
Design Challenge: Disinfection of the front and back of mobile phones is equally important. In many cases, the disinfection box on the market can only disinfect one side. It's troublesome to open the cover manually. Many mobile phone covers are opaque, which will bring inconvenience to answering the phone and affect the use. However, N1 can easily solve these problems by using the shape of the upward opening.
The flexible structure can fix the cleaning cloth components of M1, which can ensure to be suitable for the phone thickness of 7mm~14mm on the premise of completely fitting to the mobile phone. The cleaning cloth is driven by a motor can realize automatic cleaning without human intervention.
We can also take out the M1 cleaning cloth components separately for cleaning or replacement, so as to ensure the cleaning efficiency.
Research: Due to the worldwide rampage of COVID-19, people start to focus more on their personal hygiene, since it not only belongs to their own personal problems, but also will influence their family members and colleagues. According to our research, it is found that a lot of bacteria will be produced on mobile phones as the necessities of us, some of which are our own and some of which are others.
Inspiration: According to our research, it is found that a lot of bacteria will be produced on mobile phones as the necessities of us, some of which are our own and some of which are others. In particular, the bacteria in the air can easily adsorb on the mobile phone due to the touch of things by the hands in the public environment.However, the more terrible thing is that people rarely disinfect mobile phones, so mobile phones become a hotbed of bacteria.
Project Duration: The project was initiated in Guangzhou, China in July 2020 and was completed in December 2020
Operation Flow: He ultraviolet disinfection for the front and back of the mobile phone can be provided by N1, in which the high-intensity ultraviolet radiation is constituted by the 12 Uvc Leds inside. In the opening of N1, it contains a lifting platform with a motor, so that the platform can move down and inhale the mobile phone for ultraviolet disinfection when the user puts the mobile phone into the opening. After finishing, it will lift up the phone to restore, which works like the a toaster.

With 2 motor-driven cleaning cloth components, M1 can wipe and clean the front and back of the mobile phone after it is placed in. In addition, the 2 Uvc Leds containing in M1 inside can clean the phone and the cleaning cloth. Besides, people can take out the cleaning cloth component separately for cleaning. The top of the M1 can also provide wireless charging function.
