Purifying apparatus using photocatalytic sheet

摘要

Provided is a purifying apparatus, which includes ultraviolet lamps and an ozone lamp having different wavelengths from one another and disposed in tubes to remove bacteria, VOC, bad odors in water or air, and these tubes are arranged in a serial or parallel way. Folds are formed at inner ends of the spiral photocatalytic sheets which are in contact with the lamps and the respective lamps are inserted into to increase the contact area with air or water and the one with the lamp, thereby preventing the lamp from being damaged. The purifying apparatus includes: an outer case having an inlet and an outlet; a spiral photocatalytic sheet to be inserted into the outer case; a UV lamp to be inserted into the spiral photocatalytic sheet, wherein folds are disposed at an inner side of the spiral photocatalytic sheet where a space for inserting the UV lamp is formed.

主权项

1. A purifying apparatus using a photocatalytic sheet comprising:
an outer case having an inlet and an outlet; a photocatalytic tube disposed within the outer case, the photocatalytic tube defining a longitudinal axis; a fan disposed adjacent the outlet for controlling a fluid or air flow through the purifying apparatus; a photocatalytic sheet inserted into the photocatalytic tube; and an ultraviolet UV lamp inserted into the photocatalytic tube and extending along the longitudinal axis; and wherein the photocatalytic sheet has a thickness less than a width of the photocatalytic sheet, and the width is less than a length of the photocatalytic sheet; wherein the photocatalytic sheet spirals to form a spiral body extending along said longitudinal axis, the spiral body having an axial passage along said longitudinal axis and within which the ultraviolet UV lamp is located; wherein the spiral body is in a shape consisting of: an outer edge extending the length of the photocatalytic sheet, the outer edge having a smooth spiral shape for an entire length of the spiral body; an inner edge extending the length of the photocatalytic sheet trending spirally for the entire length of the spiral body while undulating along the length so that the inner edge elevates in an undulating manner from the smooth spiral shape; and a plurality of folds causing deviation from the smooth spiral shape, wherein each fold among said plurality of folds originates as an undulation at said inner edge and extends in the width direction from the inner edge toward the outer edge while ending before reaching the outer edge, and wherein all deviation from the smooth spiral shape of the spiral body consists of said plurality of folds.
