Disinfectant system
View Patent ↗A disinfectant system including a pouch enclosing a first reagent, the first reagent releasing a disinfecting vapor when exposed to moisture. A moisture transfer element is included engageable with the pouch.
1. A disinfectant system, comprising:
a pouch enclosing a first reagent, the first reagent releasing a disinfecting vapor when exposed to moisture;
a moisture transfer element releaseably engageable with the pouch, the pouch being removeably insertable within a portion of the moisture transfer element; and
the moisture transfer element defines a slit, and wherein the pouch is removeably insertable within the slit.
2. The disinfectant system of claim 1 , wherein the moisture transfer element is a sponge.
3. The disinfectant system of claim 1 , wherein the pouch includes a second reagent different than the first reagent.
4. The disinfectant system of claim 3 , wherein the first reagent and the second reagent are isolated from each other within the pouch.
5. The disinfectant system of claim 1 , further comprising a container, and wherein the pouch and the moisture transfer element are received and enclosed within the container.
6. The disinfectant system of claim 5 , wherein the container defines a plurality of apertures.
7. The disinfectant system of claim 6 , wherein the container defines an opening, and wherein the container includes a hatch sized to releaseably close the opening.
8. The disinfectant system of claim 7 , wherein the hatch defines the plurality of apertures.
9. The disinfectant system of claim 7 , wherein the hatch is pivotally coupled to the container.
10. A disinfectant system, comprising:
a pouch enclosing a first moisture activated reagent, the first moisture activated reagent releasing a disinfecting vapor when exposed to moisture;
a moisture transfer element defining a slit, the pouch being removeably insertable within the slit; and
a container defining a plurality of apertures, the pouch and the moisture transfer element being received within the container.
11. The disinfectant system of claim 10 , wherein the moisture transfer element is a sponge.
12. The disinfectant system of claim 10 , wherein the container defines an opening, and wherein the container includes a hatch sized to releaseably close the opening.
13. The disinfectant system of claim 12 , wherein the hatch defines a plurality of apertures.
14. The disinfectant system of claim 13 , wherein the hatch is pivotally coupled to the container.
15. The disinfectant system of claim 10 , wherein the pouch includes a second moisture activated reagent different than the first reagent.
16. The disinfectant system of claim 15 , wherein the first moisture activated reagent and the second moisture activated reagent are isolated from each other within the pouch.
17. The disinfectant system of claim 16 , further comprising a moisture absorbing membrane within the pouch, and wherein the moisture absorbing membrane is in fluid communication with the first moisture activated reagent and the second moisture activated reagent.
18. A disinfectant system, comprising:
a pouch enclosing a first moisture activated reagent releasing a disinfecting vapor when exposed to moisture;
a sponge defining a slit substantially though a midpoint of the sponge, the pouch being removeably insertable within the slit, the sponge transferring moisture to the pouch when the pouch is inserted within the slit; and
a container including a pivotally coupled hatch, the hatch defining a plurality of apertures, the pouch and the sponge being received within the container.
