First Claim
Patent Images
1. An apparatus for hand disinfection comprising a rigid body provided with:
- a recess for hand insertion;
an electrochemical cell provided with a timer, configured to produce an oxidant solution by electrolysis of an aqueous electrolytic medium during a predefined time;
a device for nebulizing the oxidant solution inside the recess for hand insertion;
at least one probe suitable for detecting hand insertion inside the recess;
an electronic control board configured to initiate upon activation the steps of;
uploading a predefined volume of the aqueous electrolytic medium inside the electrochemical cell,subsequent timed execution of the electrolysis inside the electrochemical cell until a concentration of the oxidant solution containing from about 20 to about 300 ppm of active chlorine is maintained, andsubsequent nebulization of the oxidant solution;
wherein the activation of the electronic control board is based on the detection by the probe or consecutive triggering of an actuator a predetermined number of times, independently from the detection by the probe.
