Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of negative oxygen ion manufacturing equipment, and more specifically, to a negative oxygen ion generator and a negative oxygen ion generating system. Background Technology
[0002] A negative ion generator is a device that generates negative air ions. It typically works by simulating natural phenomena such as lightning or the impact of a waterfall, using high-pressure air to impact a liquid, causing oxygen molecules in the air to gain electrons and form negatively charged ions. These negative ions can adsorb and settle dust, bacteria, and other tiny particles in the air, thus purifying the air and improving environmental comfort. However, as the application scenarios for negative ion generators increase, while using an air compressor to create high-pressure air can produce a larger number of negative ions, it significantly impacts the size and weight of the device. The weight and footprint of the air compressor and other related structures limit the use of negative ion generators.

[0054] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0055] The core of this invention is to provide a negative ion generator that can provide a high concentration of negative ions, has high working efficiency, simple structure, small space occupation, and low cost, and in particular contributes to improving the working efficiency of small and medium-sized negative ion generators.
[0056] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This application provides a negative oxygen ion generator, including a water-containing basin 1, a support body 2, an impeller 3, and a rotational power device 5.
[0057] The water-receiving basin 1 is a basin structure used to store water and also to house the support 2, impeller 3, and rotating power device 5. Specifically, the bottom of the water-receiving basin 1 is used to store water. The water-receiving basin 1 has an open top structure, and the support 2, impeller 3, and rotating power device 5 can be located inside it to generate negative oxygen ions. The side wall of the water-receiving basin 1 is provided with a negative oxygen ion output port, so that the negative oxygen ions generated inside the water-receiving basin 1 can be output to the outside through the negative oxygen ion output port 11.
[0058] The support body 2 is located inside the water-containing basin 1 and is used to support the impeller 3 and the rotating power device 5. Because the impeller 2 and the rotating power device 5 need to rotate, the support body 2 has a central hole 21. Several grid plates 22 are arranged along the circumference of the lower end face of the central hole 21. The space where the grid plates 22 are located is connected to the negative oxygen ion output port 11. It should be noted that the function of the grid plates 22 is to receive the water thrown out by the impeller 3. Due to the large impact force of the water, when the high-speed splashing water hits the grid plates 22, it will form small water molecules, thereby generating negative oxygen ions.
[0059] Two impellers 3 are rotatably mounted on the bottom of the support body 2. Each impeller 3 has a water inlet hole 33 in the middle for connecting to the water suction pipe 4 located in the water container 1.
[0060] The output end of the rotary power device 5 is connected to the impeller 3, which drives two impellers 3 to work simultaneously, causing the impellers 3 to throw liquid out to impact the grid plate or generate collisions. This application utilizes the simultaneous operation of two impellers, both throwing water droplets onto the grid plate and causing the water droplets thrown out by the two impellers to collide, providing a high concentration of negative oxygen ions. When the high-speed rotary power device 5 controls the rotation of the impellers 3, it can coordinate with the rotation speed of the rotary power device 5 to form a higher speed of water flow centrifugal force, thereby generating more negative oxygen ions and improving the generation efficiency of negative oxygen ions. For example, at a rotation speed of tens of thousands of revolutions per minute, the concentration of negative oxygen ions can reach millions or more. At the same time, due to the aforementioned impeller configuration, the output efficiency of negative oxygen ions can be greatly increased, thereby allowing for a suitable reduction in the power or specifications of the motor, thus reducing costs.
[0061] Optionally, the impeller 3 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the support 2, and the blades 31 of the impeller 3 extend at an angle to the radial direction of the impeller 3; the middle part of the impeller 3 has a water inlet 33 for connecting the upper end of the suction pipe 4, and the lower end of the suction pipe 4 extends into the liquid surface at the bottom of the water container 1. The blades 31 are at an angle to the radial direction of the impeller 3, forming blades 31 that are offset from the radial direction.
[0062] In addition, during the rotation of impeller 3, the airflow at the position of blade 31 will move outward due to centrifugal force, thus the air pressure at the center of impeller 3 will decrease, resulting in a siphon effect on the suction pipe 4, which will draw the water at the lower end of the suction pipe 4 upward and to the upper end of the suction pipe 4, that is, the middle of impeller 3. At this time, the rotating impeller 3 will centrifuge the water drawn up, so that the water is thrown out by centrifugal force and finally thrown to the grid plate 22.
[0063] The output end 53 of the rotating power device 5 is connected to the impeller 3, specifically to the receiving end 34 of the impeller 3. The receiving end 34 can be a mounting hole, used to drive the impeller 3 to rotate. When the impeller 3 rotates to generate negative pressure, the suction pipe 4 can draw water from the bottom of the water container 1 to the impeller 3 and throw it towards the grid plate 22. Since the space where the grid plate 22 is located is connected to the negative oxygen ion output port 11, the negative oxygen ions generated at the grid plate 22 can smoothly overflow to the negative oxygen ion output port 11.
[0064] The negative ion generator provided in this application uses a rotary power device 5 to control the rotation of the impeller 3, generating negative pressure that acts on the water suction pipe 4 to draw water from the lower part to the impeller 3. The rotation applies centrifugal force to the water, causing it to be thrown against the grid plate 22, where it impacts and forms negative oxygen ions. These negative oxygen ions are then output through the negative ion output port 12. Because the impeller 3 uses blades 31 that are offset radially, the thrown water is better aligned with the grid plate 22, generating a large number of negative oxygen ions.
[0065] Compared to the existing technology that uses an air compressor to generate gas to impact water, the negative ion generator provided in this application can obtain a high-intensity rotation speed by using a high-speed rotating power device 5, thereby creating a siphon effect in the water suction pipe 4. Then, water is thrown out by the impeller 3 to the grid plate 22 or water droplets collide with each other to generate negative ions. Due to the above-mentioned impeller setting, the output efficiency of negative ions can be greatly increased, thereby allowing for a suitable reduction in the power or specifications of the motor, thus reducing costs.
[0066] The negative ion generator provided in this application can provide a high concentration of negative oxygen ions, and has high working efficiency, simple structure, small space occupation, and low cost. In particular, it has made a significant contribution to improving the working efficiency of small and medium-sized negative oxygen ion generators.
[0067] Based on the above embodiment, the two impellers 3 are arranged on the same plane, and the two impellers 3 have a gap and rotate in opposite directions, so that the liquids thrown out by the two impellers collide at the gap.
[0068] Please refer to Figure 18 and Figure 19 Two impellers 3 are arranged horizontally with a gap between them, and are mounted coplanarly, meaning they lie in the same plane and are parallel to each other. A specific gap is designed and maintained between the two impellers 3. The two impellers 3 are designed to rotate in opposite directions.
[0069] When the impellers 3 rotate in the same direction, the blades 31, located on both sides of the gap and facing each other, will synchronously or quasi-synchronously eject the liquid they carry at high speed in a direction mainly perpendicular to the radius of rotation (or with a specific radial / tangential angle) at a specific moment. The ejected liquid jets do not move in parallel, but are strongly directed towards the gap area between them. Therefore, the two high-speed liquid streams originating from adjacent impellers 3 and driven by the specially designed blades 31 rotating in the same direction will collide violently head-on within the narrow gap area, thus producing the desired high-speed liquid collision phenomenon.
[0070] When one impeller rotates clockwise, the other rotates counterclockwise (or vice versa). Due to this counter-rotating design, the centrifugal force generated at the edge of each impeller throws the liquid outward along its tangent. Furthermore, because they rotate in opposite directions, the liquid streams thrown out by the two impellers move directly towards the gap between them, ultimately resulting in a high-speed collision.
[0071] The impellers 3 can be oriented in the same or opposite directions, and can be adjusted in conjunction with the radial angle between the blades 31 and the impellers 3 to make the water droplets thrown out by the two impellers 3 collide better.
[0072] Based on the above embodiment, the two impellers 3 share one rotary power device 5, and the output end of the rotary power device 5 is directly connected to one of the impellers 3 and connected to the other impeller 3 through a transmission device;
[0073] Alternatively, the two impellers 3 are respectively connected to the corresponding rotary power device 5.
[0074] Optionally, the two impellers 3 share the same rotary power unit 5 as their power source. The output shaft of this rotary power unit 5 (e.g., a motor or engine) is directly and rigidly connected to the input shaft of one of the impellers 3 (or connected via a coupling), enabling direct drive of that impeller. To drive the other impeller 3, a power transmission device (e.g., gear pair, synchronous belt drive, chain drive, or universal joint, etc.) is provided. One end of this transmission device is connected to the output end of the rotary power unit 5 (or the drive shaft of the first impeller directly connected to it), and the other end is connected to the input shaft of the second impeller 3. With this design, the rotational motion and torque generated by the single power source 5 are precisely distributed and transmitted to the second impeller 3 via the transmission device, ensuring that the two impellers can operate synchronously as designed (usually maintaining a specific speed ratio or phase relationship).
[0075] Optionally, each of the two impellers 3 is equipped with an independent rotational power unit 5. These two power units 5 are physically and electrically / controllably separated from each other, and each independently provides the required rotational power and speed / torque control to its connected impeller 3. This configuration eliminates the need for a mechanical power transmission device between the two impellers.
[0076] Based on the above embodiment, the two impellers 3 are arranged vertically, and the liquid ejected from one impeller 3 can collide with the liquid ejected from the other impeller 3 to enhance the effect of generating negative oxygen ions.
[0077] The rotation axes of the two impellers 3 are configured in a spatial configuration that is perpendicular to each other. That is, one impeller 3 is approximately in a horizontal plane of rotation, while the other impeller 3 is approximately in a vertical plane of rotation (or the two planes of rotation are significantly non-parallel / non-coplanar). This causes the main motion direction of the liquid jet (or droplet group) centrifugally ejected by the first impeller 3 during its rotation to intersect or even be nearly orthogonal with the main motion direction of the liquid jet (or droplet group) centrifugally ejected by the second impeller 3 at a high angle in space. These two high-speed liquid streams collide violently in a specific intersection area. The highly turbulent environment formed in the collision area, rich in micro-droplets, provides a favorable microenvironment for the generation and stable existence of negative oxygen ions.
[0078] Based on the above embodiments, the two impellers 3 share a single rotary power device 5. The output end of the rotary power device 5 is directly connected to one of the impellers 3 and connected to the other impeller 3 through a transmission device. Refer to the description of the rotary power device in the above embodiments; however, it should be noted that in this embodiment, the two impellers 3 are perpendicular. The structure of the power transmission device should be as simple and compact as possible to avoid excessive structural expansion.
[0079] Based on the above embodiments, the number of impellers 3 is at least two, and the correspondence of all impellers 3 is one-to-one or one-to-many.
[0080] In a one-to-one arrangement, in a horizontal (coplanar) configuration, the rotation axes of all impellers 3 are parallel and located in the same plane, forming a linear or ring array. In a vertical (cross-axis) configuration, the rotation axes of the impellers 3 are arranged in multiple sets of mutually perpendicular (or high-angle cross-axis) combinations. Each impeller 3 is equipped with its own dedicated rotational power unit 5, i.e., "one impeller, one power source". This configuration provides maximum control freedom, allowing independent and precise adjustment of the speed and direction of rotation of each impeller 3, and is suitable for horizontally coplanar reverse-axis arrangements.
[0081] In a one-to-many scenario, for reverse rotation requirements, the transmission device needs to integrate a reversing mechanism, such as an idler wheel or bevel gear, to ensure that adjacent impellers rotate in opposite directions. For same-direction rotation requirements, the transmission device maintains same-direction output and must ensure that all impeller speeds are strictly synchronized.
[0082] Based on any of the above embodiments, the blades 31 of the impeller 3 extend at an angle to the radial direction of the impeller 3, and some of the liquid thrown out when the blades 31 rotate can vertically impact the grid plate 22.
[0083] In one specific embodiment, the support body 2 is a cylindrical structure, which may have a stepped central hole 21 for mounting the rotary power device 5. The cylindrical structure includes the aforementioned grid plate 22, and the lower part of the support body 2 is used to mount the impeller 3. The impeller 3 and the grid plate 22 are located at the same axial position as the central hole 21, thereby ensuring that the centrifugal water droplets of the impeller 3 can be thrown onto the grid plate 22.
[0084] Optionally, an air inlet 23 is provided on the upper part of the support body 2. This device is a structure that forms negative oxygen ions in the internal water through siphon action and discharges the negative oxygen ions through the outlet. In order to ensure the stability of the overall air pressure, a passive air supply structure is required. If this structure is set on the water container, it is easy to cause the negative oxygen ions to mix with the air. Therefore, the air inlet 23 can be set between the cross gap between the rotating power device and the support body, from the outside of the rotating power device, from top to bottom, along the shaft diameter, directly to the center area of the impeller. It is about 5mm away from the siphon port.
[0085] Based on the above embodiment, the impeller 3 includes a base plate 32 and blades 31. The base plate 32 is provided with a water inlet hole 33, and a plurality of blades 31 are arranged circumferentially around the water inlet hole 33.
[0086] It should be noted that the impeller in this application is mainly used to guide the water flow and provide centrifugal force for the water flow, requiring the base plate 32 to provide guiding support for the water flow. The water inlet hole 33 provided on the base plate 32 is used to connect the suction pipe 4, so that when the impeller 3 rotates and causes the air pressure in the middle (i.e., at the root of the blades) to decrease, the air pressure in the upper part of the suction pipe 4 can also decrease, thereby causing the suction pipe 4 to produce a siphon effect. In this embodiment, the blades 31 are arranged around the water inlet hole, which can be used to accurately provide the negative pressure effect at the root of the blades 31 to the water inlet hole 33, thereby accurately causing the suction pipe 4 to perform a siphon effect.
[0087] Optionally, there may be one water inlet hole 33, and the center line of the water inlet hole 33 may or may not be collinear with the center line of the impeller 3. The water inlet hole 33 is located in the middle of the base plate 32, which allows the suction pipe 4 to be located in the middle of the base plate 32, thereby preventing the suction pipe 4 from rotating too much when the impeller 3 rotates.
[0088] Based on any of the above embodiments, the blade 31 is a straight blade, and any two adjacent blades 31 have the same radial angle with the impeller 3 and the same deflection direction.
[0089] It should be noted that straight blades include flat blades or airfoil blades. When blade 31 is a straight blade, the blade root is taken as the starting point of the extension direction of blade 31, and the blade edge is taken as the ending point of the extension direction of blade 31. The length of blade 31 is from the starting point to the ending point. The length direction of blade 31 makes an angle with the radial direction of the starting point, or deflection angle. In the circumferential direction of the impeller, the deflection direction of blade 31 is the same, that is, all blades 31 deflect in a counterclockwise (or clockwise) direction relative to their own starting point along the impeller. In other words, any two adjacent blades have the same deflection direction, i.e., the same rotation direction.
[0090] For straight blades, the grid plates 22 on the support 2 can be in a one-to-one correspondence or a non-one-to-one correspondence manner. Optionally, the grid plates 22 are evenly arranged in the circumferential direction, so that when the impeller 3 rotates, it can obtain a greater centrifugal force than the curved blades, which accelerates the impeller towards the grid plates 22, thereby obtaining a large amount of relatively uniform negative oxygen ion concentration.
[0091] Optionally, the deflection angles of several grid plates 22 arranged circumferentially on the bottom surface of the support 2 relative to the central hole 21 are the same. That is, in order for the grid plates 22 to receive water droplets thrown out by the centrifugal force of the blades 31 with the maximum surface area, the grid plates 22 need to be as directly opposite the direction in which the water droplets are thrown out as possible. If the angles and shapes of several blades 31 in the circumferential direction are the same, then the several grid plates 22 in the circumferential direction need to have the same angle.
[0092] Optionally, the grid plate 22 can be a straight plate, preferably a straight plate perpendicular to the corresponding blade 31. It should be noted that the "correspondence" mentioned here should be understood as having a corresponding vertical blade in the non-rotating state, or in the rotating state, the blade 31 corresponding to the water droplet received by the grid plate 22 is the corresponding blade. In actual production, this correspondence is also related to the rotational speed of the impeller 3 driven by the rotating power device and the size of the blade 31.
[0093] Optionally, the grid plate 22 can be a convex plate protruding towards the blade 31. The convex plate makes it easier to contact the centrifugal water droplets and has an outward splashing angle, thereby obtaining more negative oxygen ions. Specifically, the grid plate 22 is an arc-shaped plate or a spherical plate.
[0094] Optionally, the grid plate 22 can be a panel with a complex surface, such as a sawtooth surface or a stepped surface. The purpose of setting the panel shape is to maximize the contact and impact with the centrifugal water droplets, thereby generating more negative oxygen ions.
[0095] Based on any of the above embodiments, the blade 31 is a curved blade with a fixed curvature, and any two adjacent blades have the same curvature.
[0096] Alternatively, blade 31 may be a curved blade with variable curvature, and the curvature of blade 31 changes in the same direction along the radial direction of the base plate.
[0097] It should be noted that curved blades include circular arc blades, flat curved blades, etc.
[0098] The aforementioned curved blades are characterized by a change in the line connecting the blade root to the blade edge along the blade's length. These include forward-curved blades and backward-curved blades. The former has a higher absolute outlet velocity and circumferential velocity, resulting in the greatest work done by impeller 3 on the fluid, but also greater flow losses, especially at higher circumferential velocities in impeller 3, which can easily lead to significant flow losses and potentially reduce overall efficiency. The latter has lower absolute outlet velocity and circumferential velocity, resulting in less flow loss and thus higher stage efficiency. The backward-curved blade compressor stage achieves pressure increase within impeller 3, where flow losses are lower, leading to higher overall efficiency. Therefore, it is suitable for applications requiring high efficiency, especially at higher circumferential velocities in impeller 3, where it can maintain high stage efficiency. For the aforementioned curved blades, the grid plates also need to be aligned with the direction of water droplet ejection, allowing the water droplets to generate a large number of negative oxygen ions upon impact with the grid plates.
[0099] Based on any of the above embodiments, the support body 2 and the grid plate 22 are integrally formed, and each grid plate 22 is perpendicular to the bottom of the support body 2. The integrally formed structure facilitates manufacturing and ensures the stability of the grid plate 22, preventing it from deflecting or changing position due to water droplet impact.
[0100] Optionally, the aforementioned one-piece molded structure can be manufactured using other methods such as 3D printing or casting.
[0101] Based on any of the above embodiments, the bottom of the support body 2 is a groove structure 24 facing the bottom of the water container 1, the grid plate 22 is located on the inner bottom surface of the groove structure 24, the central hole 21 is located in the middle of the groove structure 24; the impeller 3 is located in the groove structure 24; it also includes a limiting plate 6 for limiting the axial position of the impeller 3, the limiting plate 6 has a through hole 61 for the water suction pipe 4 to pass through, and the limiting plate 6 is detachably connected to the mounting part 26 at the bottom of the support body 2 by a connector; optionally, the connector can be a screw, bolt, clamp or other mounting structure;
[0102] When the limiting plate 6 is installed, there is a first gap 25 between the limiting plate 6 and the bottom end of the support body 2, so that the negative oxygen ions at the grid plate 22 can overflow to the negative oxygen ion output port 11.
[0103] Based on any of the above embodiments, the limiting plate 6 is provided with a limiting plate water inlet 62. The limiting plate water inlet 62 is used to guide the unbroken water droplets back to the bottom of the water container 1. It is a connecting structure that connects the space where the blade 31 is located and the water storage space at the bottom of the water container 1. It is used to allow excess water droplets on the bottom plate 32 that have not formed negative oxygen ions to return to the water storage space. Optionally, there may be other gaps or channels for water return between the support body 2 and the impeller 3.
[0104] Based on any of the above embodiments, the support body 2 is placed in the water container 1 while connected to the limiting plate 6, and the upper port of the water container 1 is sealed. The outer periphery of the limiting plate 6 is attached to the inner wall of the water container 1 to divide the inner cavity of the water container 1 into an upper cavity 12 and a lower cavity 13. The support body 2 is located in the upper cavity 12, and the lower part of the water suction pipe 4 passes through the through hole 61 and is located in the lower cavity 13.
[0105] Based on any of the above embodiments, the rotating power device 5 is an electric motor, and the rotating power device 5 is mounted to the support body 2 via a first bearing 51, while the impeller 3 is connected to the support body 2 via a second bearing 52. Using bearings to mount the motor facilitates accurate motor positioning and ensures that the motor does not deviate from its axis during operation.
[0106] Based on any of the above embodiments, the suction pipe 4 and the impeller 3 are integrally formed, which can eliminate the gap between the suction pipe 4 and the impeller 3, and generate a more stable and efficient siphon effect. Considering that the impeller 3 is driven to rotate by the rotary power device 4 in this application, the suction pipe 4 will also be driven to rotate. Based on this, the suction pipe 4 can be set at the rotation center of the impeller 3 and integrally formed with the impeller 3.
[0107] Based on any of the above embodiments, the suction pipe 4 is either cylindrical or trapezoidal, and its upper end has at least two outlets 41. A water inlet 33 is provided between any two blades 31, and the outlets 41 and the water inlet 33 are correspondingly connected. The suction pipe 4 and the impeller 3 are integrally formed. Optionally, considering that the suction pipe 4 needs to rotate, it can be configured as a cylindrical structure or an inverted trapezoidal structure (similar to a cone). Compared to other types of tubular structures, the inverted trapezoidal suction pipe can ensure a good rotation centerline, reducing unnecessary rotational inertia or increasing the load.

The negative ion generating system further includes a supply device, which includes a power supply and a water supply device. The structure of other parts of the negative ion generator is described in the prior art and will not be repeated here.
