Abstract: An apparatus for purifying and deodorizing air includes a housing and electrode positioned within the housing and having a plurality of emitter members extending from the electrode. A collector plate is mounted within the housing and has a plurality of holes such that a hole is positioned adjacent a respective emitter member. A high voltage generating source is positioned within the housing for applying a high voltage between the electrode and collector plate. The emitter members are moveable relative to the holes within the collector plate for selecting between: (a) an oxidating mode of operation that enhances ozone production to allow an oxygen to split off therefrom for oxidizing and neutralizing pollutants, and (b) an ionic release mode of operation for enhancing the generation of positive and negative ions such that negative ions attach to pollutants that drop out of the air.

Abstract: An ozone generating cell includes at least two substantially planar electrodes at a potential difference separated by a dielectric sheet, each producing a corona discharge to convert a proportion of any oxygen present to ozone. The electrodes, when considered in plan, are generally offset with regions of the electrodes overlapping or almost overlapping each other, and regions of both electrodes not overlapping each other. One or both planar electrode may feature extending planar portions of a substantially rectangular ‘U’ shape.

Abstract: An electro-kinetic electro-static air conditioner includes a self-contained ion generator that provides electro-kinetically moved air with ions and safe amounts of ozone. The ion generator includes a high voltage pulse generator whose output pulses are coupled between first and second electrode arrays. Preferably the first array comprises one or more wire electrodes spaced staggeringly apart from a second array comprising hollow nullUnull-shaped electrodes. Preferably a ratio between effective area of an electrode in the second array compared to effective area of an electrode in the first array exceeds about 15:1 and preferably is about 20:1. An electric field produced by the high voltage pulses between the arrays produces an electrostatic flow of ionized air containing safe amounts of ozone. A bias electrode, electrically coupled to the second array electrodes, affects net polarity of ions generated. The outflow of ionized air and ozone is thus conditioned.

The dielectric plates and hollow insulating tubes define a series of air passages for passing the oxygen containing air across the electrodes to produce ozone. Ozone produced by the ozone generator cell is discharged through an ozone distributor mounted within the apparatus. A blower is provided to drive air in mixed combination with the ozone discharged from the ozone distributor whereby the mixed air and ozone combination is discharged from the apparatus through an ozone outlet.
