Meanwhile, the dirty such as garbage ad sundries drawn into this dust collecting machine will be kept in the inner chamber at the front of the optoelectronic dust collecting machine.
The inner chamber is provided with an another separate extreme ultraviolet ray transmitting tube for radiating extreme ultraviolet ray to eliminate viruses and bacteria existing in the dirty in the inner chamber so as to avoid breeding of new bacteria, viruses.
The main fittings of the optoelectronic dust collecting machine for killing bacteria and viruses of this innovative invention include an extreme ultraviolet ray transmitting tubes, a draft fan, an electric motor and a filter screen. When the garbage on the floor, outside and inside the carpet is drawn by the movable cleaning head of the dust collecting machine, the extreme ultraviolet ray transmitting tube of the movable cleaning head radiates extreme ultraviolet ray so as to eliminate bacteria, viruses on the floor, outside and inside the carpet. Meanwhile, the drawn garbage dirty will be kept in the inner chamber of the garbage box at the front of the dust collecting machine by being obstructed by the filter screen. A separate extreme ultraviolet ray in the inner chamber of this garbage box can eliminate possible new bacteria, viruses, etc. breeding in the garbage dirty. The draft fan is driven by the electric motor to produce strong suction air flow so as to draw in the garbage dirty along with the air through the air inlet of the movable cleaning head. The air is drawn in the dust collecting machine via the filter screen through the movable cleaning head and the inner chamber of the garbage box and then exhausted outside from exhaust outlets on both sides of the dust collecting machine. In other words, when the air flows through the movable cleaning head and the inner chamber of the garbage box, the bacteria, viruses in the air are eliminated by the extreme ultraviolet ray. Therefore, the clean and fresh air is exhausted from the exhaust outlet so that the quality of environmental air indoor can be improved.
