PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To linearly control an ozone production rate according to a control input signal by controlling the ON/OFF of high frequency and high voltage pulses for producing ozone by the ON/OFF time ratio of other frequency relatively lower than the frequency of the high voltage, in an ozone producing apparatus of the silent discharge system. SOLUTION: In order control the ozone production rate, a first signal is generated as direct current in the range of 5 to 10 V, and a second signal is generated as pulses in the range of 1 to 5 kHz whose ON/OFF time ratio is determined in response to the first signal. High frequency signal for producing ozone and being pulses in the range of 1 to 50 kHz is impressed to the ozone producing apparatus only when the second signal is ON. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
Abstract:
Improvements in the supply of high-frequency electrical power to ozone-producing cells can be accomplished using the systems and techniques described herein. Application of a DC-DC converter operating at a switching frequency substantially greater than a load frequency, supports generation of a high- voltage AC for powering such cells, while allowing for reductions in component size and reductions in a quality factor of a load tuning circuit. Controllable power inverters used in obtaining one or more of the switching and load frequencies can be controlled using feedback techniques to provide stable, high-quality power to ozone-producing cells under variations in one or more of externally supplied power and load conditions. An inrush protection circuit can also be provided to selectively introduce a current-limiting resistance until an input DC bus has been sufficiently initialized as determined by measurements obtained from the DC bus. The current limiting resistance can be a positive-temperature coefficient thermistor.
Abstract:
Water treatment device, which is simultaneously a water filter, enriches the water with ozone and is also a boiler and a space ionizer. The base (16) of the pot (17) includes an ozone generator; the ozone outlet (13) is fitted to the ozone inlet (2) at the base of the pot (17), tube (3) starting from the ozone inlet (2) and passing through the pot's handle (17) and channeling ozone to the internal bottom of the pot (17). When the pot is filled with tap water, the water passes through filter (8) installed in removable pre-chamber (5) and ends up clean and ready for use at the bottom part of the pot (17), while resistance (11) is placed on the external bottom of the pot (17), thus adding another function to the device. Socket (14) and plug (1) at the bottom part of the pot (17) turn the device also into a boiler and an LCD timer (12) regulates the start-up and shut-off operation and also the ozone production time.

Abstract:
An apparatus for the production of ionized oxygen and ozone from pure oxygen. An adjustable high voltage power supply is connected to an ozone generator having at least one ozone generator therein. The HV power supply has a relatively low voltage setting for producing negative ionized oxygen and a relatively high voltage setting for producing ozone. A negative ionizer may be included to increase the concentration of negative ionized oxygen. Outputted gasses are directed to a hermetically sealed envelope positioned around and in spaced relation from the surface of a patient's injury. If the wound is infected, ozone is selectively used to treat the infection for a first predetermined period of time sufficient to neutralize the infection. After the wound is treated with ozone, negative ionized oxygen is selectively used to treat the wound for a second predetermined period of time sufficient to enhance the healing of the wound.
