Refrigerators are indispensable household appliances in human life, and in order to reduce bacteria and odor in refrigerators, an ion generator is generally used to sterilize and deodorize the interior of the refrigerators.

The ion generator, also called as air anion generator or anion generator, generates anions by using a method of boosting the power frequency voltage to the required voltage by using a high-voltage transformer, releases the anions to the surrounding air, performs sterilization by using the adsorption effect of the anions, and reduces the concentration of peculiar smell in the refrigerator.

The negative ions released by the negative ion generating device can charge particles such as smoke dust, germs, spores, pollen, flock and the like in the air and then are absorbed by the discharging integrated device, and the action effect is better than that generated by pure physical modes such as filtration (even if a very fine filter hole material is used, solid particles smaller than the filter hole cannot be filtered, gaseous pollutants cannot be filtered) or absorption (for example, materials such as active carbon only have a selective absorption function).

The related art ionizer generally arranges the electrodes and the rectifiers in a separated manner, and the wire connection between the separated components causes cumbersome wire arrangement work, increases loss, and is easily caused by poor wire contact to cause the operation failure of the ionizer.
