OZONE-GENERATOR.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Feb. 3, 1914.

Application filed May 20, 1912. Serial N 0. 698,486.

To all whom it may concern: 7

Be it known that I, WILLIAM O. FREET, a citizen of the United States, residing in Hackensack, county of Bergen, and State of New Jersey, have invented or discovered certain new or useful Improvements in Ozone-Generators, of which the is a full, clear, and completedisclosure.

My invention relates to ozone generators of a kind suitable for use in producing ozone in small quant'ties and, of relatively low concentration for purifying the air of apart-.

ments and for other uses where only low concentration and limited quantities are desired.

The objects of my invention are to providea'generator of this kind which will be F g. 2 is a sectional strong and durable and which may be easily and cheaply constructed and whlch may easily be adjusted so as to regulate the quantity of the output.

A further object is to so arrange the parts of the generator that the dielectric plate forming an element thereof, may easily be removed for cleaning.

In the drawing accompanying and formg a part of this specification, I have illustrated one embodiment of my invention.

7 In this drawing, Figure 1 is a plan view. view taken on the line 22 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken on the line 33 of Fig. :1. Fig. 4 is a detailed view. Q

Referring detail to the features of the structure illus rated, the numeral 1 designates a base of the insulating material on which the pa-rts'of the generator are assembled and supported. A fiat plate 2 is supported on the base 1 and constitutes one electrode of the device. Flanged supporting members 3 mounted near the opposite sides of the base, support a dielectric plate land also the insulators 5. Two oppositely disca-l slots 7 thereon, are supported at the inner ends of the insulators 5 by means of bolts 12.. These racks, one of which is shown in perspective in Fig. 4, are formed by following stamping out and bending up a thin plate of conducting material and ey' are so formed that the lower portion 8 of. these racks rests on the dielectric plate.

' A plurality of are provided and their opposite ends are disposed in the slots 7 and rest on thelpwer portion 8 of the rack. This lower portion spaces them uniformly from the dielectric. These strips or slats'constitute the other electrode and the number of these slats may readily 'be varied so as to regulate the quantity of the output. The slats are held in position in the slots by members 10, re= movably secured to the racks 6 by bolts 11. In case it is desired to vary the output, one of the members 10 is removed and the numtity of the output desired.

In operation,

with one of the racks 6, and the other terminal to the electrode charge takes place from 4 the slats through the dielectric to the lower electrode 2. Should the dielectric 4:- need cleaning orbe" broken, itcan he slid out edgewise and'be cleaned, or a new plate inserted without altering the arrangement of the other parts.

While. I have described only one embodiment of my invention, I am aware that this may be modified ,by those skilled in-the art without departing from the scope of my invention.

What I claim is: v r

1. In a device ofthe kinddescribed, a base of insulating material, two electrodes mounted thereon and spaced from each mounted between said tially as described. y

In a device of the kind described, a base of insulating material, a fiat electrode supported thereby, a Hat dielectric plate supported over said electrode, oppositely electrodes, substandisposed racks having vertical slots therein ber of slats-adjusted according to the quan-' 2, so that the dis-' the lower edges of other and a; flat dielectric plate slidably located over said dielectric and a plurality metallic strips or slats 9,

one terminal connected with the source of current to be'used is connectedt 5 base of insulating material, a fiat electrode of electrodes disposed in said slots and suptherein located over said dielectric, and a ported by said racks, substantially as deplurality of fiat strips constituting elec- 1: scribed trodes disposed in said slots and supported 3. In a device of the kind described, a by said racks, substantially as described.
