Recently, GMKJ LED learned that a special case of “1 Transmission 13” occurred in the spread of the epidemic in Chengdu. According to official reports, a case is mainly associated with multiple infected persons, and some of the infected persons are their family members, colleagues and neighbors in the same building. Living environment such as elevator, a few positive samples were detected.
This means that elevators and other public spaces and office spaces are likely to spread. It is understood that during the epidemic prevention and control period, most areas of elevator disinfection will be wiped with water and sprayed with disinfectant, but this will inevitably emit a pungent smell, and it may be possible. Corrosion of elevator electronic components. In response to this, many places have begun to use ultraviolet radiation for disinfection and sterilization.
Introduced ultraviolet elevator intelligent disinfection system in many places
For example, on March 10, 2020, the Market Supervision Administration of Shunde District, Foshan City, in conjunction with the Shunde Special Inspection Institute, launched an ultraviolet elevator intelligent disinfection system. This system is the first intelligent elevator ultraviolet disinfection device that is applicable to all elevators. "Check the new coronary pneumonia treatment plan. The new coronavirus can survive under ultraviolet light for a short time, and it can eliminate germs through ultraviolet light."

Yang Xixue, deputy director of the Shunde District Market Supervision and Administration Bureau, said that ultraviolet radiation disinfection of elevators is a low-cost, reproducible, effective, and low-side-effect disinfection method. When the elevator is unoccupied, the ultraviolet elevator intelligent disinfection system is automatically turned on to disinfect the car.

The elevators in Shangheshu Community in Xiangfang District of Harbin also use ultraviolet lamps for disinfection. In order to prevent and control the epidemic and ensure the safety of the owners, the property has installed automatic UV disinfection lamps for 33 elevators in the community.
However, it is worth noting that compared with UV LEDs, ultraviolet disinfection lamps do not have the characteristics of low energy consumption, long life, and environmental protection. The overall installation is not beautiful and is deeply complained. With the entry into force of the Minamata Convention, companies have begun to switch to UVC. -LED as a light source to kill.
GMKJ LED, Yinyueguang and other companies have deployed
As the main tool of public transportation, elevator buttons are undoubtedly the first to bear the brunt. People's fingers press and touch the buttons many times during the elevator. The surface of the elevator buttons is easy to retain various bacteria and viruses, plus the natural environment. The suspended bacteria present in the elevator buttons may cause pollution to the elevator buttons, so elevator buttons have quietly become a potentially important source of bacterial contamination.
GMKJ LED launched a "new type of ultraviolet sterilization button" suitable for many occasions. Compared with traditional elevator buttons, there are four main technical advantages:
① Perform 360° all-round sterilization and disinfection on the surface of the elevator buttons in real time;
② The sterilization rate reaches over 99% in a short time;
③Ultraviolet sterilization will not harm or affect passengers' human body;
④ Ultraviolet ray sterilization will not release ozone, pollute the environment, and meet environmental protection standards.

UV sterilization button operation mode
When the elevator is in normal operation, ultraviolet rays pass through the upper and lower translucent grooves of the acrylic ferrule to always kill the button word in 360 degrees, directly destroying the bacterial DNA, preventing bacterial regeneration and secondary pollution.
When riding in an elevator, when the occupant’s finger presses or touches the button tablet, the infrared sensor detects the approach of the human finger, and the circuit board controls the ultraviolet light to turn off, reducing the damage of ultraviolet rays to the human body. When the human finger leaves the button tablet, The infrared sensor does not detect the human body approaching information, and the circuit board controls the UV lamp to start, and sterilizes the button words after being pressed or touched.

In addition to the buttons, the narrow elevator space is also facing the crisis of germ infection. Based on this, 59 Seconds introduced the elevator space sterilization system, which covers the elimination of elevator buttons and the elimination of space air.
300 billion elevator market space to be opened
Elevators are a huge market. According to The Paper, "By the end of the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, 219,000 old communities in cities and towns built before the end of 2000 will be renovated. In this regard, industry insiders say With the addition of dividends, it is expected that the elevator industry will maintain double-digit growth in the next five years, and the scale is expected to reach 300 billion yuan by 2025.
On April 9, the Beijing Municipal Commission of Housing and Urban-Rural Development announced the comprehensive renovation of old communities in 2021. It pointed out that in 2020, 427 old communities will be confirmed in Beijing, 313 old communities will be renovated, and 124 old communities will be completed. . From 2017 to 2019, only 243 old communities have been confirmed in Beijing.
Not only Beijing, but Shandong stated that it is necessary to carry out the transformation of old communities and shanty towns to ensure that 1,960 old communities will be renovated, involving more than 600,000 households. Shaanxi Province issued the "Implementation Plan on Comprehensively Promoting the Reconstruction of Old Urban Communities and the "Joint Creation of a Beautiful Environment and Happy Life"". During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the province plans to renovate nearly 10,000 old urban communities, benefiting approximately 1 million households.

Jiangsu pointed out that in 2021, the province will complete the renovation of 1,130 old towns and cities, with a total of 16,000 buildings and a construction area of about 38 million square meters, benefiting about 428,000 urban households. The planned investment is about 13.9 billion yuan. Zhejiang pointed out that no less than 800 old communities will be renovated in 2021, and no less than 2,000 old communities in cities and towns will be renovated in 2022. Anhui Province stated that in 2021, the transformation of old communities will total 1,498 communities, involving 15,835 buildings, more than 362,000 residents, and building area over 33.34 million square meters.
The advancement of the old reform means dividends! Take elevators as an example. According to statistics from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and other relevant departments, about 8 billion square meters of old residential buildings were built from 1980 to 2000, and more than 70% of the old buildings in which the elderly population live in cities and towns do not have elevators. Among them, more than 200,000 buildings in Shanghai and about 180,000 buildings in Guangdong Province need to be equipped with elevators. It is estimated that more than 2 million elevators need to be installed in old buildings nationwide.
In addition, the elevator industry dividends do not only come from old reforms. The old modified residential area is just one of them. Elevators in public places such as office buildings, office buildings, airports, libraries, etc. are also markets that UV-LED needs to enter urgently.
Concluding remarks
The improvement of residents' health concepts and the creation of a healthy riding environment are factors that the elevator needs to pay attention to in the future, and it is also the reason why UV LED is concerned by the elevator industry. At the same time, the broad market prospect is also a big opportunity for UV-LED.
The combination of "concept and market" promotes the revolutionary evolution of elevators. The elevators with sterilization function are seamlessly connected to daily use, and can effectively solve the potential problems of aerosol transmission of new coronary pneumonia and other bacteria in elevators, making elevator rides become Safe, healthy and comfortable, it can be widely used in hospitals, shopping malls, communities, office buildings, schools, airports, high-speed railway stations and other public places equipped with car elevators.
