AIR OXYGEN IONIZER Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: medical and home engineering; air conditioning. SUBSTANCE: ionizer has insulated air duct and ionizing elements of negative high-voltage source. Ionizing elements are two-step ones. They consist of volumetric electrode of high-energy step and system of ionizing electrodes of low-energy step made on basis of needle-, string and tape-shaped electrodes. Volumetric electrode consists of two grids spaced from each other. Filter of oxygen pseudoaeroions possessing ionization energy of minus 0.8 eV is installed at air-duct outlet. Filter includes volumetric electrode connected to negative high-voltage source. Internal space of volumetric electrode houses wire-gauze electrode connected to output of positive voltage auxiliary source. Ionizer allows conversion of ordinary low-energy oxygen aeroions possessing ionization energy of 12 eV and pseudoaeroions of ionization energy of minus 0.8 eV to high-energy aeroions of 34 e V ionization energy. EFFECT: improved treatment-sanitary effect. 2 cl, 5 dwg
