ABSTRACT:
A sterilizer, which is not large, but includes a hermetic container capable of defining a sealed space therein without being closed by a locking device from the outside, is disclosed. The sterilizer includes a hermetic container, which defines therein a steam chamber for conducting the heat sterilization of objects. The hermetic container includes a steam supply unit for supplying hot steam to the steam chamber, and an opening/closing unit for closing the steam chamber. The opening/closing unit includes an opening for passing the objects and a door for closing the opening from the inside of the chamber. The door is moved to come into contact with the opening from the inside, and the steam pressure inside the steam chamber is increased by the pressurized steam from the steam supply unit, so that the door can come into close contact with the opening, thus hermetically sealing the steam chamber.
