Abstract
The present invention provides methods and systems for a modular ion generator device that includes a bottom portion, two opposed side portions, a front end, a back end, and a top portion. A cavity is formed within the two opposed side portions, front end, back end, and top portion. At least one electrode is positioned within the cavity, and an engagement device is engaged to the front end and/or an engagement device engaged to the back end for allowing one or more modular ion generator devices to be selectively secured to one another.
Claims19
An ion generator device, comprising:
- a bottom portion, two opposed side portions, a front end, a back end, and a top portion;
- a cavity formed within the two opposed side portions, front end, back end, and top portion;
- a plurality of openings positioned along the top portion;
- at least one electrode positioned within the cavity and adjacent the openings;
- an engagement device engaged to the front end and a receptacle within the back end for receiving a second engagement device engaged to a second modular ion generator device for allowing one or more modular ion generator devices to be selectively secured to each other;
- and
- a printed circuit board housed within the cavity and the at least one electrode extends outwardly from the printed circuit board.
An ion generator device, comprising:
- a bottom portion that extends to an outer edge, two opposed side portions that extend upward from the outer edge, a front end that extends upward from the outer edge, a back end that extends upward from the outer edge, and a top portion;
- a cavity formed within the two opposed side portions, front end, and back end;
- a plurality of openings disposed on the top portion;
- a plurality of electrodes positioned within the cavity and each opening has an electrode disposed adjacent the opening;
- an engagement device engaged to the front end that is externally threaded and a receptacle within the back end that is internally threaded for allowing one or more ion generator devices to be selectively secured to each other;
- and
- a printed circuit board housed within the cavity and the at least one electrode extends outwardly from the printed circuit board.
An ion generator device, comprising:
- a cylindrical outer portion, a front end, and a back end;
- a cavity formed within the cylindrical outer wall, front end, and back end;
- a printed circuit board disposed within the cavity;
- a plurality of openings disposed on the cylindrical outer portion;
- a plurality of electrodes positioned within the cavity and engaged to the circuit board;
- and
- an engagement device engaged to the front end and/or an engagement device engaged to the back end for allowing one or more modular ion generator devices to be secured together.
