Claims

1. A baby product sterilizer having a breast pump, the sterilizer comprising:

a body having a plurality of ultraviolet lamps located at an inside of the body to sterilize and dry baby products accommodated in the inside of the body;

a cap disposed on a front surface of the body;

a cover located at outer surfaces of the body; and

the breast pump disposed between the body and the cover in such a manner as to be controlled by a controller mounted on the cover.

2. The baby product sterilizer according to claim 1, wherein the body comprises a breast pump storage recess formed on a top surface of the body, wherein the breast pump is located in the breast pump storage recess.

3. The baby product sterilizer according to claim 1, wherein the body comprises:

a plurality of shelves located at the inside of the body to put the baby products thereon;

an inner circulator disposed on a back surface of the body to circulate air in the interior of the body;

an exhauster located below the inner circulator to move the air in the interior of the body to the outside; and

the ultraviolet lamps disposed therein to sterilize and dry the baby products put on the shelves.

4. The baby product sterilizer according to claim 3, wherein the ultraviolet lamps are located on the upper and lower portions of the left and right sides of the body.

5. The baby product sterilizer according to claim 3, wherein the ultraviolet lamps are located on the upper and lower portions of the back surface of the body.

6. The baby product sterilizer according to claim 1, wherein a front surface of the cover is open in such a manner as to be slidably coupled to a back surface of the body, while a space is being formed between the cover and the body to induce flow of air therethrough, and the cover comprises a controller mounting recess formed on one side of a top surface of the cover, wherein the controller is inserted into the controller mounting recess.

7. The baby product sterilizer according to claim 1, wherein the controller comprises:
