Vibrating liquid disinfectant container
A disinfectant liquid cleaning box is provided that includes a box having an interior space formed therein to received contents to be cleaned and a cleaning liquid, an opening at the top of the box in communication with said interior space, a cover rotatably connected to the box and adapted to be selectively moved between an opened position and a closed position in order to open and close the interior space of the box, a vibration motor connected to the box for causing vibration of said cleaning liquid, a light connected to the box, and a controller that controls a predetermined cycle to activate the vibration motor for a first predetermined time to disinfectant contents to be cleaned that are placed in the interior space of the box and to activate the light for a second predetermined time.
1 . A disinfectant liquid cleaning box comprising:
a box having an interior space formed therein to receive contents to be cleaned and a cleaning liquid;
an opening at the top of the box being in communication with said interior space;
a cover rotatably connected to the box and adapted to be selectively moved between an opened position and a closed position in order to open and close the interior space of the box;
a vibration motor connected to the box for causing vibration of said cleaning liquid;
a light connected to the box, the light when activated generates light to illuminate cleaning liquid in the box, the light is for illumination only and does not provide UV; and
a controller that controls a predetermined cycle to activate the vibration motor for a first predetermined time to disinfectant contents to be cleaned that are placed in the interior space of the box and to activate the light for a second predetermined time that is longer than the first predetermined time.
2 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined cycle is commenced when the cover moves from said opened position to said closed position.
3 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 1 , further comprising
at least one battery in said box;
and a USB cord that is connectable to the box to charge said at least one battery.
4 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 1 , further comprising a basket carriage that is connected to an interior surface of the cover and an inner surface of the box to extend into said interior space of the box.
5 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 4 , further comprising an accessories basket that is removably insertable in the basket carriage.
6 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 1 , wherein the light comprises three light emitting diodes that generate light to illuminate liquid in the box.
7 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 2 , further comprising a switch assembly that is actuated when the cover moves from the opened position to the closed position.
8 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 7 , wherein the switch assembly is connected to the box so that a first portion of the switch assembly extends through another opening in the box to an extended position, and a second portion of the switch assembly extends to an activating member of the vibration motor.
9 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 8 , wherein, when the cover is in the closed position, the cover contacts and presses the first portion of the switch assembly thereby causing the second portion of the switch assembly to engage the activating member of the vibration motor in order to operate the vibration motor.
10 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 9 , wherein, when the cover is in the opened position, the cover does not contact the first portion of the switch assembly and, thus, does not cause activation of said vibration motor or enable operation of said vibration motor.
11 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 10 , further comprising a mode of operation switch connected to the box that has three positions: “on”, “off” and “auto”, each, respectively, corresponding to a mode of operation of at least one of said vibration motor and said light.
12 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 11 , wherein positioning the mode of operation switch in the “on” position overrides the predetermined cycle.
13 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 12 , wherein positioning the mode of operation switch in the “off” position overrides the predetermined cycle.
14 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 13 , wherein the first predetermined time is shorter than the second predetermined time.
15 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 13 , wherein the first predetermined time is one minute.
16 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 13 , wherein the second predetermined time is ten minutes.
17 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 11 , wherein, when the mode of operation switch in the “off” position, the operation of vibration motor is prevented.
18 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 11 ,
wherein when the mode of operation switch is in the “on” position, the vibration motor is operated to generate vibration when the cover is in the closed position; and
the vibration motor is deactivated to stop vibration when the cover is moved to the opened position or when the switch is moved to the “off” position.
19 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 5 , wherein the accessories basket is sized to hold clipper comb guards.
20 . The disinfectant liquid cleaning box of claim 5 , wherein the basket carriage has a compartment that is a space behind the accessories basket that is sized to receive one or more hair combs and shears and that is in fluid communication with the interior space such that said cleaning liquid fills said compartment.
