Patent ID: 11071337

Abstract:
A virus protection device 16 for protecting a user from a virus 14 includes a first flexible electrode 22 and a second flexible electrode 24 both formed of graphene and connected to a battery. The electrodes 22,24 are configured in a fractal arrangement and define a fractal-like structure 25 comprises a main branch 27 of electrodes 22, 24 and a plurality of side branches 28, secondary branches 30, tertiary branches 32, and subsequent branches 34 extending outwardly from the branch 27. The branches 27,28 30, 32 and 34 together form multiple nodes of flexible opposed positive electrodes 36.1 and negative electrodes 36.2 which are spaced an equal distance apart from one another, to define predetermined spaces there between, through which electrical current is capable of flowing between the electrodes 36.1, 36.2 for incapacitating viruses contacting the device 16 or passing through the spaces between the electrodes 36.1 and 36.2.
