Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a negative ion producing method for generating negative ions in air, and a negative ion generator, an air purifier and a humidifier using the same.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Usually, fine particles carrying electricity ranging from 1 μm to the size of a molecule are suspended in the air. Among them, particles with a size of about 10 to 100 molecules are called small ions, especially those charged to the negative pole are called negative ions, and these negative ions stabilize the mind, It is said to have the effect of enhancing the function of.

As described above, the negative ions float in the air due to the ionization phenomenon of the air, which is charged to the anode and the surrounding air is charged to the cathode when the water droplet is split in the air. This ionization phenomenon of air is generally known as the Leonard effect, and occurs in a specific area in the natural world, such as a waterfall, a rapid area such as an upstream of a river, or an area where heavy rain is actually falling.

[0004] Therefore, there are many lines that are hit by waterfalls in Shukendo and Koko, but it is reasonable that many negative ions are generated around the waterfall where the water falls and the splashes rise. (See Keizo Kamiyama "Health Design," published by Otsuki Shoten)

As described above, it has become known that negative ions are good for the human body. However, there has been no other method except for relying on negative ions existing in ordinary air. However, as a result of long research, with the development of electronics, as a device that can freely generate negative ions regardless of the state of air ions, a negative ion (negative potential) therapeutic device (AL Tjewski) The author's book, "Air Ionization in the National Economy," was developed (see Nobuo Tateno, "Understanding the Power of Negative Ions," published by Takei Shuppan).

According to the above-mentioned negative ion therapy device, a large amount of negative ions can be generated and cells can be easily replenished with negative ions, thereby increasing the negative ion effect in a living body and affecting body fluids, cells and nerves. It has a favorable effect on the whole body, which can treat various diseases and promote health. However, a large amount of ozone (O ₃ ) is generated at the cost of generating the negative ions.
It is said that this ozone is harmful to the human body even if it is contained in a trace amount in the air.

For this reason, in recent years, an air purifier that purifies air by washing dust and the like in the air with water while generating negative ions that do not contain ozone existing in nature by using the Leonard effect has been recently developed. Proposed. This air purifying device mixes air and water by a gas-water mixing device, thereby generating dusts while cleaning and cleaning dust and the like in the air.

[0008] In such an ion generation / air cleaning apparatus, consumables such as a filter are not required, and a wide range of air can be cleaned by supplying air with a blower.

Then, water is jetted and collided with a solid such as a wall surface, a rotating body, and a fixed plate, or water is jetted from a rotating multi-hole plate or a nozzle to split water and generate fine ions to generate ions. The air is being cleaned.

[0010]

As described above, in the conventional apparatus, negative ions are generated by a method of colliding water with a solid surface. However, in this method, a water film is formed on the collision surface, and water is divided. There is a problem that the miniaturization is prevented, and the miniaturized water droplets are easily absorbed by the water film, thereby preventing generation of negative ions.

The method of injecting water with a rotating multi-hole plate or a rotating nozzle has a lower negative ion generation efficiency than the method of colliding with a solid surface.

Therefore, in the conventional apparatus, the amount of negative ions generated per unit space is small, and in order to increase the amount of negative ions generated, the power must be increased, which is uneconomical.

In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a method for producing negative ions, which can efficiently generate the amount of negative ions per unit space supplied by utilizing the Leonard effect with low power, and a method thereof. It is an object of the present invention to provide a negative ion generating device, an air cleaning device and a humidifying device utilizing the above.

With respect to the generation of negative ions due to the splitting of water, when the water droplet collides with a metal plate and splits, ions are generated in nearby air and the charge amount of the split water droplet. Experimentally finds that the sum of the charges is larger than the initial charge, and that the sum of the charges of the ions generated in the air is equal to the charge of the water droplet increased by the splitting, and then Simpson (S
impson) repeated Leonard's experiment and measured using a more precise device, as a result, it was found that a phenomenon similar to the Leonard effect could occur only by water droplets splitting in the air, ions generated in the air It was confirmed that the ion was a negative ion regardless of the charge, and that the water droplet had a positive charge equivalent to the ion generated during the division ("Meteorological Electricity" by Hatakeyama and Kawano, published by Iwanami Shoten, p. 26).
To p27).

The principle that a large amount of negative ions are generated by the method for producing negative ions according to the present invention is to perform ion dissociation and ionization of gas molecules. The ion dissociation is a process for dissociating water. Then, when high energy is given to liquid (water), water (H
₂ O) is ionized like H ₂ → OH ⁺ + OH ⁻
As shown in FIG. 1, a triple layer of charge is formed in the liquid and contacts the air. At the liquid surface, the oriented dipoles arrange the negative ions outward, and the negative ions are attracted more near the liquid surface. Here, if the liquid is mechanically split into small water droplets by any means, the net charge of the water droplets becomes negative, and the positive ions remain in the liquid as large particles or are neutralized through grounding. (See “Electrostatic Handbook” published by the Electrostatics Society of Japan, p104 Ohmsha).

The ionization treatment of gas molecules is a treatment which is inevitably performed by activating water droplets. The droplets are fragmented as much as possible while moving with high energy.
When the dipole is oriented on the surface of the water droplet, oxygen (O ₂ ) molecules existing at the interface on the gas (air) side are ionized, and O ₂ ⁻ ·
(H ₂ O) _n is a negative ion molecule group represented by _n (see the aforementioned “Electrostatic Handbook” p137). The negative ion molecule group is called a water molecule addition negative ion. As a result, the water droplets have a positive charge equivalent to that of the ions generated during the division (see “Meteorological Electricity”, p. 27, supra).

That is, water or an aqueous solution is sprayed as fine water droplets from two or more opposed spraying / spraying holes or nozzles.
The water droplets are further sprayed, and the fine water droplets collide with each other, so that the water droplets become even smaller water droplets, the water droplets split and scatter, and the split water droplets are again sprayed or sprayed by fine water droplets or collision. In a situation where a large amount of fine water droplets are generated by repeating re-collision and re-collision with the split and scattered water droplets in the same space, by simultaneously passing air at a wind speed of 0.1 to 30 m / sec,
Part of the fine air becomes negative ions due to the Leonard effect (Simpson effect). Here, theoretically, it must be in an electrically balanced state,
Inside the device, which is the actual collision space, water or aqueous solution is jetted and sprayed at high speed, and the force of collision and scattered around acts greatly. Large droplets of fine water droplets are absorbed by the liquid surface under the collision space and the water-like wall surface inside the device, so that a mixture of fine water droplets containing a large amount of negative ions can be obtained. is there.
