Patent ID: 11633513

Abstract:
To provide an ultraviolet ray irradiation device which, when an operator inserts a glove to the device, prevents irradiation of ultraviolet rays to the outside thus further enhancing safety. An ultraviolet ray irradiation device includes: a sterilization chamber housing having an insertion opening through which a hand on which a glove is mounted is inserted into a sterilization chamber; an ultraviolet ray irradiating unit which irradiates ultraviolet rays to the chamber; ultraviolet ray blocking elastic bodies disposed so as to traverse an insertion direction of the hand, and allowing the hand to penetrate the elastic bodies; and a frame body supporting peripheral edge portions of the stacked elastic bodies. A plurality of cuts are radially formed in the elastic bodies. A plurality of elastic members are formed between the cuts. The respective elastic bodies are mounted on the frame body such that the cuts are displaced from each other.
