Abstract:
1. A mobile UV Sterilization Unit connectable to an internally generated source of electrical energy and an externally generated source of electrical energy to destroy infectious material located on a surface comprising: a wheeled carriage having a frame with wheels depending therefrom and a device attached thereto to guide the carriage across a surface; a first portable lamp module having a first position removably located on said frame when said carriage is moved across a surface to be sterilized and a second position located remotely from said frame when the surface to be sterilized is located remotely from said carriage, said module has a lamp housing with a first housing open bottom; a first set of ultraviolet lamps removably mountable in said lamp housing and positioned to shine downwardly through said open bottom of said housing to shine against a surface to be sterilized, said lamps having proximal ends and distal ends; a control on said frame selectively connectable to an internally generated source of electrical energy on said frame and an externally generated source of electrical energy located remotely from said frame, said control connected to said lamps when said module is in said first position and said second position providing electrical energy to said lamps; first mounts receiving said proximal ends of said lamps and supporting said lamps in said housing; second mounts receiving said distal ends of said lamps and supporting said lamps in said housing; a second lamp module located on said frame when said carriage is moved across a surface to be sterilized, said second lamp module having a second lamp housing having an second housing open bottom; a second set of ultraviolet lamps removably mountable in said second lamp housing and positioned to shine downwardly through said second housing open bottom to shine against a surface to be sterilized, said lamps having second proximal ends and second distal ends; third mounts receiving said second proximal ends of said second set of ultraviolet lamps and supporting said second set of ultraviolet lamps in said second lamp housing; and, fourth mounts receiving said second distal ends of said second set of ultraviolet lamps and supporting said second set of ultraviolet lamps in said second lamp housing with said second set of ultraviolet lamps connected to said internal electrical energy source; and wherein said first portable lamp housing has a first length and a first width, said frame includes a pair of side walls spaced apart a distance approximately equal to said first length and at pair of cross walls extending between side walls approximately equal to said width so said first portable lamp housing being forced in between said side walls and cross walls which is releasable and frictionally held on said frame, said first portable lamp housing, has a handle thereon for grasping to exert upwardly lifting force when moving said first portable lamp housing apart from said side walls and cross walls.
