Ozone generating apparatus

Claim 1

In an ozone generating apparatus comprising: a housing, a high voltage transformer within said housing, a casing enclosing said high voltage transformer, an ozonizer fixedly mounted within said housing, a high voltage bushing fixedly mounted to one end of said ozonizer and electrically connected to said high voltage transformer, the improvement wherein said ozonizer comprises: a cylindrical ground electrode tube having a closed end and an open end, a dielectric glass discharge tube of cylindrical shape, of a diameter less than that of the ground electrode tube, insertably mounted within the inside of said ground electrode tube, and fixedly spaced therefrom and having a closed end and an open end, said open end being proximate to the open end of the ground electrode tube, a conductive film formed on the inner surface of the electric glass discharge tube, said high voltage bushing is fixedly mounted to said high voltage transformer casing and projects outwardly thereof, wherein said open end of said cylindrical ground electrode tube is fixedly mounted to said high voltage transformer casing about said high voltage bushing, and means internally of the cylindrical ground electrode tube for directly connecting said high voltage bushing to said ozonizer comprising a conductive bar extending outwardly of said high voltage bushing into the open end of said electric glass discharge tube is proximity to said conductive film, and a power supply brush connecting the end of said conductive bar to said dielectric glass discharge tube conductive film.
