<p>Air cooling means useful in conjunction with UV processors, i.e., apparatus for treating products with ultraviolet light, is adapted to impinge relatively high velocity cooling air onto the product being treated while minimizing contact of the cooling air with the lamp providing the ultraviolet light. The air cooling means comprises oppositely spaced alot-like nozzles and an exhaust channel to remove the air without contacting the ultraviolet lamp. In preferred embodiments, the nozzles direct the air angularly away from the ultraviolet lamp and toward a longitudinal exhaust channel positioned between and above the nozzles. It is preferred that the UV processor have a plurality of ultraviolet lamps with air cooling means adjacent to and following each such lamp.</p> |
