Abstract:
A silent discharge plasma apparatus is disclosed which comprises the following components: a dielectric member (3); paired electrodes (1, 2) opposed against each other across the dielectric member (3); and an alternating-current source (6) adapted to apply an alternating-current voltage between the electrodes (1, 2) and to thus cause a discharge, such that a gas which is supplied to a discharge space (4) where a discharge should occur, will lead to plasma creation. At least one of the electrodes (1, 2) is formed by a conductive power feeding thin film which is formed on the dielectric member (3), such that when the dielectric member (3) is destroyed and an arc discharge develops between the electrodes (1, 2), the power feeding thin film on which the arc discharge develops is oxidized, such that creation of the arc discharge is stopped.
Abstract:
There is provided an ozone generating apparatus that requires no use of cooling water, is small in size and easy in maintenance. The ozone generating apparatus includes a ground electrode 1 formed of a substantially cylindrical metal tube, and a high voltage electrode 5 having a substantially cylindrical dielectric body substantially concentrically arranged inside the ground electrode, and having a high voltage applied to an electrically conductive layer 6 formed on an inner peripheral surface thereof, in which an oxygen-containing gas is supplied into an electric discharge gap formed between the ground electrode and the high voltage electrode to generate ozone, wherein the ground electrode is formed integrally with plural air cooling fins 2 extending in a longitudinal direction at an outer peripheral side thereof.
Abstract:
The inventive ozone generator comprises at least one tubular external electrode (4), at least one internal electrode (7), wherein each internal electrode consists of a plurality of tubular metal segments (8) which are closed at least partially at each end and externally ceramic-coated, said tubular segments are disposed one behind another, mechanically de-coupled from each other and electrically connected, a rod (11) axially crosses the tubular segments (8) and is provided on the end thereof with means (12, 13) for axially clamping the tubular segments to each other in such a way that an electric contact is formed. Each tubular metal segment (8) is provided at each end thereof with an outwardly convex bottom (8a, 8b) which is embodied substantially in the form of a spherical cap, comprises a central area (18) for electric contact and is provided with a ceramic coating (9) consisting of at least two thin layers (9a, 9b).
