Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model specifically relates to a novel sheep horn electrode. Background Art

[0002] A plasma speaker is a device that uses plasma to generate sound. Its principle is to generate sound waves through electric field changes and air vibrations. Its discharge electrode needs to be easy to break down, and the arc needs to be elongated after breakdown, and it needs to be stable enough after entering a stable state.

[0003] The traditional sheep horn electrode solution is to break through the air at the narrow gap at the bottom of the sheep horn electrode to form an arc. The arc is heated and moves upward. As the gap above the sheep horn electrode gradually increases, the arc will be elongated until it reaches the end and enters a stable state. However, since the two ends of the electrode are symmetrical and on the same horizontal plane, the arc still has an upward trend, so the stable state is not stable enough. If it is subject to some interference, it is easy to run away or cannot be maintained directly and it will be generated again from the lowest point. Therefore, the distance of the sheep horn electrode has to be reduced to maintain its stability. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above, the utility model provides a novel sheep horn electrode to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is: a new type of sheep horn electrode is provided, including left and right electrodes that can generate electric arcs, the left electrode, whose main body is a vertical short rod, and the terminal is an inwardly folded end bent inwardly; the right electrode, whose main body is a vertical long rod, and the terminal is a hook concave toward the center, and the discharge terminal of the right electrode is higher than the discharge terminal of the left electrode, so that the arc generated by the left electrode and the right electrode is inclined between the discharge terminals of the left and right electrodes, and the arc is in a centrally symmetrical position.

[0006] Furthermore, both ends of the left and right electrodes can be connected to AC high voltage respectively.

[0007] Furthermore, the hook shape of the right electrode terminal that is recessed toward the center is an arc potential well region.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes an electrode base for mounting the left and right electrodes.

[0009] The new sheep horn electrode of the utility model, due to the high and low terminal structure of the right electrode and the left electrode, makes the arc not a horizontal arc of the sheep horn electrode after stabilization, but a vertical or nearly vertical arc, the upward force of the arc is proportional to the horizontal distance of the arc, the vertical configuration greatly reduces the horizontal component of the arc, so that the arc is more stable in the vertical position; and the hook shape of the right electrode terminal that is concave toward the center provides an arc potential well area for the arc, that is, when there is a weak air disturbance, the arc will not run, because if it continues to run to the right, the distance will increase, and the resistance will increase at this time, and the arc tends to return to the previous position; if the air disturbance is greater than the critical value, it will run to the right, but at this time the distance is almost unchanged, so that the volume emitted by the arc will not change, and such a structure improves the arc stability.

[0013] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and some implementation methods.

[0014] exist Figure 1-Figure 2 In the invention, a novel sheep horn electrode is provided, comprising left and right electrodes 4 capable of generating an arc, wherein the left electrode 6 is a vertical short rod, and the terminal is an inwardly bent end 7; the right electrode 4 is a vertical long rod 3, and the terminal is a hook concave toward the center, and the discharge terminal of the right electrode 4 is higher than the discharge terminal of the left electrode 6, so that the arc generated by the left electrode 6 and the right electrode 4 is inclined between the discharge terminals of the left and right electrodes 4, and the arc is in a centrally symmetrical position; when in use, the left and right electrodes 4 are reasonably designed, and the arc is in a centrally symmetrical position. The left and right electrodes 4 are respectively connected to AC high voltage at both ends. The air is broken down at the narrow gap at the bottom of the left and right electrodes 4 to form an arc. The arc is heated to move upward. There is a transitional upward channel. The top of the left and right electrodes 4 is the far end for maintaining the arc. Due to the high and low terminal structure of the right electrode 4 and the left electrode 6 of this scheme, the arc is not a horizontal arc of the sheep horn electrode after stabilization, but a vertical or nearly vertical arc. The upward force of the arc is proportional to the horizontal distance of the arc. The vertical configuration greatly reduces the horizontal component of the arc, making the arc more stable in the vertical position.

[0015] In this embodiment, the hook shape of the terminal of the right electrode 4 that is recessed toward the center is an arc potential well area 5; the hook shape of the terminal of the right electrode 4 that is recessed toward the center provides an arc potential well area 5 for the arc, that is, when there is a slight air disturbance, the arc will not run away, because if it continues to run to the right, the distance will increase, and the resistance will increase at this time, and the arc tends to return to its previous position; if the air disturbance is greater than the critical value, it will run to the right, but at this time the distance is almost unchanged, so that the volume emitted by the arc will not change. Such a structure improves the stability of the arc.

[0016] In this embodiment, the two ends of the left and right electrodes 4 can be connected to AC high voltage respectively; an electrode base 1 for mounting the left and right electrodes 4 is also included; an AC high voltage interface 2 is provided on the electrode base 1; an external power supply is connected through the AC high voltage interface 2, and the two ends of the left and right electrodes 4 are connected to AC high voltage respectively, and the air is broken down at the narrow gap at the bottom of the left and right electrodes 4 to form an arc; and the left and right electrodes 4 can be disassembled and interchanged on the electrode base 1, and an arc can still be formed.

[0017] In this embodiment, a new type of sheep horn electrode is installed in a plasma speaker. With a reasonable size design, the arc is in a central symmetrical position, so that the arc sound is in the center of the plasma speaker, allowing the sound to perfectly interact with the acoustic structure of the plasma speaker to produce good results.

[0018] The utility model is implemented in detail as follows: when in use, the two ends of the left and right electrodes 4 are respectively connected to AC high voltage, and the air is broken down at the narrow gap at the bottom of the left and right electrodes 4 to form an arc. The arc is heated to move upward, and there is a transition upward channel. The top of the left and right electrodes 4 is the far end for maintaining the arc. Due to the high and low terminal structure of the right electrode 4 and the left electrode 6 of this scheme, the arc is not a horizontal arc of the sheep horn electrode after stabilization, but a vertical or nearly vertical arc. The upward force of the arc is proportional to the horizontal distance of the arc. The vertical configuration greatly reduces the horizontal component of the arc, making the arc more stable in the vertical position, and the hook shape of the terminal of the right electrode 4 that is concave toward the center provides an arc potential well area 5 for the arc, that is, when there is a weak air disturbance, the arc will not run, because if it continues to run to the right, the distance will increase, and the resistance will increase at this time, and the arc tends to return to the previous position; if the air disturbance is greater than the critical value, it will run to the right, but at this time the distance is almost unchanged, so that the volume emitted by the arc will not change, and such a structure improves the stability of the arc.
