Abstract

An elevator capable of sterilization includes sterilizers disposed on an upper and lower side of the elevator, respectively. The sterilizer may constantly operate for germ sterilizing each corner in a longitudinal well, where may not be reached by a human hand and a machine, in which the elevator moves, with the aid of the elevator moving up and down. Since a germ illuminating process is constantly made by the sterilizers, germs may be prevented from being bred and thus the purpose of sterilization of air within the longitudinal well being made prior to entering into the elevator.

Claims

1. An elevator capable of sterilization comprising an elevator body having a fan for drawing air into the elevator body and moving longitudinally within a longitudinal well in which the elevator moves, characterized in that sterilizers are disposed on an upper and lower side of the elevator body, respectively and a control panel is disposed in the elevator body and controlled by means of machine control, automatic control with time set, elevator body transmission and intellectual control, whereby the longitudinal well is sterilized by the sterilizers at normal time with the aid of the elevator moving up and down.

2. The elevator according to claim 1, wherein said sterilizer is an ultraviolet ray or optical-catalyzer.
