A pressure water lever 11 for inserting the air, a reverse valve valve hole 12 for sucking air by expansion and contraction of the pressure water lever 11, a pressure air bag 13 for storing air when the pressure water lever 11 is extended, and when the pressure water air bag 13 is contracted A pressure air air passage 14 for sending pressurized air to the water supply tank 2, a water supply port 15 through which external water can be supplied to the water supply tank 2, and a water vapor backflow prevention plate 16 that prevents the steam heated by the combustion catalyst 5 from flowing in. The heat insulating layer 17 prevents heat from being transmitted to the outside of the sterilizer 1.
[0014]
In the above configuration, when the sterilizer 1 is turned on, the combustion gas in the combustion gas tank 6 flows into the combustion catalyst 5 and burns at 400 to 500 ° C. on the catalyst. By combustion, the lower part of the water supply tank 2 and the steam generation pipe 3 are heated, and the combustion exhaust gas passes through the steam backflow prevention plate 16, passes through the exhaust mixing path 10, and is discharged from the spray port 4.
[0015]
The operator puts his / her hand on the pressure water lever 11 and holds the pressure water lever 11. The air in the pressure air bag 13 containing the air supplied from the reverse valve hole 12 by gripping is sent to the water supply tank 2 through the pressure air path 14. The air sent to the feed water tank 2 compresses the water in the feed water tank 2 and introduces the water in the feed water tank 2 into the heated steam generation pipe 3. The introduced water is heated in the steam generation pipe 3 to become steam. Further, the water vapor is mixed with the air exhausted by the combustion catalyst in the exhaust mixing path 10, reheated, and injected from the spray port 4 onto the object to be processed.
[0016]
FIG. 2 shows the shape of the spray port 4. Since the spray port 4 directly injects heated water vapor to the microorganisms to be processed, the shape of the spray port 4 is conical.

[0017]
In general, the size of bacteria and molds adhering to the object to be treated is said to be 0.6 to 100 μm or more. In the sterilization apparatus 1, since the particle diameter of the heated water vapor is 0.3 μm or less from the spray port 4, the spray port 4 has a minimum size of 100 μm or more and is larger than the microbial surface area of the object to be treated.

Obviously it can be.
[0023]
From Table 2, it is clear that by operating the sterilizer 1 for 5 seconds or more, the number of bacteria is drastically reduced, and the stamp spray attached with bacteria can be sterilized.
[0024]
The sterilization apparatus 1 has a structure in which a heat insulating layer 17 is provided inside the sterilization apparatus 1 so that heat is not transmitted to the outer frame of the sterilization apparatus 1 because the operator holds it. In addition, as objects to be treated, there are house building materials such as walls, ceilings, wallpaper and window glass in the house, cooking utensils such as cutting boards and tableware, bedding, clothing, microorganisms attached to the inside of showcases and containers, etc. Can be sterilized.
[0025]
Moreover, since the structure of the said sterilizer 1 is simple, it can be produced in a handy type and lightweight by reducing the size, and can be used for portable use. Further, sterilization can be easily performed without the size of the object to be processed and the movement of the object to be processed.
