Fig. 2 shows a disinfection cabinet 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Above which is a hopper 11 that is in communication with the uppermost one of the plurality of rails 15 in the sterilizer 10. The objects 5 to be disinfected (hereinafter referred to as coins 5) enter the disinfection cabinet 11 from the hopper 11, roll downwards on the rails 15, and ultraviolet rays emitted by the UVC lamp tubes 7 arranged at two sides irradiate two sides of the coins 5 in the process, so that disinfection and sterilization are finished. Finally, the coin 5 is discharged from the outlet of the lowermost one of the tracks. The illustrated cabinet is provided with a coin outlet 19 at the lower side thereof, which is associated with the lowermost track outlet for collecting the sterilised coins 5.

The disinfection cabinet 10 is provided with a cabinet door 13, and the components in the disinfection cabinet can be maintained by opening the cabinet door. In other embodiments, instead of the coin outlet 19, a storage box (not shown) may be provided at the bottom of the disinfection cabinet, and the coins 5 or chips discharged from the rail may fall into the storage box and be taken out by opening the cabinet door.

Fig. 3 shows the core, the transfer part and the disinfection part of the present invention, and shows the partial three-dimensional schematic diagram of the present invention, so as to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention. The frame 17 is the main frame, and a plurality of rails 15 are sequentially and meanderly mounted on the frame 17 end to end. Two rows of UVC fluorescent tubes 7 are arranged respectively in track 15 both sides. The upper inlet 11 'of the track 15 is connected to the hopper 11 and the lower outlet 19' is connected to the coin outlet 19. Figure 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view taken along the plane of the mid-line of each track. It can be seen that the coins 5 roll down the track 15 one by one.

Fig. 5 further shows a cross-sectional view of the rail 15, the cross-sectional position being referred to as position a-a in fig. 4. The rail 15 is of a groove structure and is formed by stamping or punching a metal sheet (such as a steel plate). The width W of the groove is slightly larger than the thickness of the coin 5, which facilitates the smooth rolling of the coin and prevents the coin 5 from being excessively inclined in the groove and being stuck at a certain position. The width is typically selected to be 120-150% of the coin thickness. The depth H of the groove is selected between the radius and the diameter of the coin 5, so that the gravity center of the coin 5 always falls into the groove and cannot be turned out; at the same time, the coin 5 can be easily pulled out of the slot by hand when jamming occurs. The upper edge of the side wall of the groove shape is provided with a flanging 14 which plays the role of a reinforcing rib and prevents the hands of operators from being cut. The flanges 14 at the upper edges of the two side walls are opened to both sides so that the disk-shaped coins 5 can easily fall in. Also shown is a guide ramp 18 at the entrance end of the track 15. As may be further seen in fig. 6 and 7, the guide ramp 18 facilitates the passage of coins 5 down the slope into the body of the track 15.

Fig. 6 and 7 also show the side wall openings 12, which openings 12 reduce the physical area of the side wall of the track 15, allowing the uv disinfection light emitted by the UVC light tube 7 to pass through these openings 12 and impinge on the surface of the passing coin 5, improving the efficiency of disinfection. Thus, the size of the opening 12 should be as large as possible while meeting the structural strength requirements of the track 15 and ensuring that the items to be disinfected do not fall out of the track 15 during the rolling disinfection.

Referring again to fig. 3, 4, 6 and 7, the track 15 and the bracket 17 are provided with a catch 16 and a bayonet 20, respectively, by which the track 15 can be easily fixedly coupled to the bracket 17. Of course, it can also take other mechanical coupling mode, for example welding, riveting, screw etc. the utility model discloses do not add the perplexing.
