Sterilization lamp module integrated in vehicle and vehicle comprising a sterilization lamp module

1. An integrated sterilization lamp module in a vehicle, comprising:

a sterilization lamp configured for emitting sterilization light rays to sterilize surfaces in the vehicle onto which the sterilization light rays are projected;

an attachment device configured for attaching the integrated sterilization lamp module to the vehicle;

a controller configured for controlling the sterilization lamp so that it can perform a sterilization operation;

a reflector which is configured for reflecting the sterilization light rays which are emitted from the sterilization lamp toward the roof of the vehicle, back to an interior of the vehicle to sterilize the surfaces within the vehicle; and

a lampshade through which the sterilization light rays emitted from the sterilization lamp being irradiated onto the surfaces to be sterilized,

wherein the lampshade comprises a peripheral portion and a central portion, the central portion being formed with grooves extending in an extending direction of the sterilization lamp,

wherein integrated sterilization lamp module further comprises:

a frame; and

leaf springs, each of the leaf springs comprising a substantially plate-shaped base portion and a curved portion extending from the base portion,

wherein, at opposite ends of the sterilization lamp, fasteners are inserted through holes formed in a lug of the reflector, holes formed in the base portion of the leaf spring, holes formed in the peripheral portion of the lampshade, and holes formed in the frame, to package the sterilization lamp within a space formed by these components to form a modular unit.

2. The integrated sterilization lamp module of claim 1 , wherein the integrated sterilization lamp module is attached to a roof lining of the vehicle or along a rooftop interior of the vehicle by the attachment device.

3. The integrated sterilization lamp module of claim 1 , further comprising a damper configured for providing dampening and cushioning protection for the sterilization lamp.

4. The integrated sterilization lamp module of claim 3 , wherein the damper comprises silicone members provided over the sterilization lamp at opposite ends of the sterilization lamp.

5. The integrated sterilization lamp module of claim 1 , wherein the reflector is provided, at a reflective surface that faces the interior of the vehicle, with a reflective coating.

6. The integrated sterilization lamp module of claim 1 , further comprising an indicator indicating whether the sterilization lamp is performing the sterilization operation, wherein the indicator has a first state indicating that the sterilization lamp is performing the sterilization operation and a second state indicating that the sterilization lamp is not performing the sterilization operation.

7. The integrated sterilization lamp module of claim 1 , wherein the attachment structure is defined by the curved portion.

8. The integrated sterilization lamp module of claim 1 , wherein the controller is integrated into an electronic control unit of the vehicle.

9. A vehicle comprising at least one integrated sterilization lamp module according to claim 1 , the sterilization lamp module being detachably or permanently attached to a roof lining of the vehicle or along a rooftop interior of the vehicle.
