ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for sanitizing objects by use of ultraviolet light includes an enclosed container defining a first object entry opening and a second object exit opening. A first inclined slide is mounted within the container and is positioned adjacent to the first entry opening, and a second inclined slide is mounted within the container beneath the first slide and positioned adjacent to the second exit opening. The slides are positioned at angles with respect to horizontal such that the pull of gravity on the objects moving down each of the slides is greater than restraining electrostatic or frictional forces on the objects. A baffle is mounted within the container and is positioned with respect to the slides for redirecting objects from the first slide onto the second slide, and ultraviolet light sources are mounted in the container and positioned above the slides for irradiating the objects as they move down the slides.
