Definitions
- the invention relates to an ozone generator apparatus, in particular for small whirlpools and massage tubs, consisting of a case with power supply and a high voltage transformer connected with the ozone producing element, an electrode or UV discharge lamp, located in air stream.
- Prior art Small whirlpools and massage tubs achieve massaging effects either with warm water streams injected through jets arranged under the water level or by air bubbles pressed by a blower through holes in the bottom, or by a combination of both means, when the air is sucked by the ejection effect into a stream of warm water prior to its being introduced into the jet.
- Due to economic considerations the water in massage tubs is not always changed after each use, which requires rather intensive disinfection, the more so due to the threat of microbes proliferating in the piping that forms the technological part of a massage tub.
- chemical disinfection has been partially or thoroughly replaced with the disinfecting effect of ozone that is created by an ozone generator within the stream of inlet air.
- the advantage of ozone consists in that it does not burden the bath water by disinfectants, while its adjusted presence in the water contributes to the therapeutical effect, especially in the case of varices and some skin diseases.
- Large numbers of whirlpools and massage tubs delivered without ozone generator are in operation.
- the US patent 6,331,279 B1 describes an apparatus for ozone generation whose enclosure accommodates an electrode and a high voltage transformer with means connecting the transformer with the electrode. Through an opening in the enclosure the air enters a separated part of the enclosure comprising the electrode and the ionised air leaves through the outlet into an air pipe wherefrom it is sucked into the water stream by the ejector in the water pipe.
- the US 6,317,903 B1 shows in Fig.
- an ozone generator in particular for massage tubs consisting of a case with power supply accommodating a high voltage transformer coupled by means of cables with an ozone producing element - a discharge electrode or a UV discharge lamp - located in air stream, wherein the ozone producing element is accommodated in an air duct passing outside the case, the internal space of the duct being separated from the internal space of the case by a water-proof partition wall.
- the case carries a T-shaped pipe fixed to it by its central branch that serves for the coupling to the air duct accommodating the ozone generator, the cables passing through the central branch of the form pipe provided with a waterproof partition wall.
- the ozone generating element can be preferably a flat discharge electrode requiring minimum space and offering minimum resistance to streaming air.
- the electrode can be created by a ceramic plate orientated in the sense of air stream and bearing metal plates of opposite poles on its opposite sides, the whole electrode being covered by a layer of silicate glass. This expands the electrode life substantially.
- the generator can be provided with low voltage power supply.
- the ozone generator according to Fig. 1 and 2 consists of case 1 provided with electric supply 2 with 12 V ac.
- the case accommodates a high voltage transformer coupled with cables and connectors with discharge electrode 3.
- the electrode 3 is located in a T-shaped pipe 4 connected with case 1, or it protrudes into the direct part of form pipe 4 intended for coupling to the air duct.
- a waterproof partition wall separates the interior of case I from the interior of form pipe 4.
- the electrode 3 consists of a ceramic plate orientated in the direction of air flow carrying metal plates of different polarity on its opposite sides, the whole electrode 3 being covered with a layer of silicate glass.
