Abstract:
An ion-generating device has a positive electrode pair and a negative electrode pair. The positive electrode pair and the negative electrode pair are disposed in a casing with a space interposed therebetween, such that an induction electrode in the positive electrode pair and an induction electrode in the negative electrode pair are separated from each other. It is thereby possible to obtain an ion-generating device and an electrical apparatus, capable of efficiently emitting both of positive ions and negative ions to an outside of the device, and easily achieving reduction in size and thickness.

Abstract:
A hard drive particle cleaning system includes an air source, an ionizer module coupled to the air source via upstream tubing, a mechanical shock system configured to secure a hard drive and apply a mechanical shock to the hard drive to dislodge particles inside the hard drive, and an exhaust system. The ionizer module includes a shell and an inlet nozzle arranged in a first end of the shell and coupled to the upstream tubing for supplying a stream of air from the air source into the shell.
Abstract:
The embodiments described herein improve on the present electrostatic precipitator method of using parallel plates to collect particulates by using multiple parallel vanes set at operating parameters described below. By using vanes, the main entrained air is subdivided and directed to flow between vanes that induce resistance to flow allowing charged particles to collect on the vanes. The width of the vane is designed to be wide enough so the air flow rate at the ends of the vanes is less than 1 ft/s, allowing particles discharged from the plates to fall by gravity and in the direction of very low air flow, resulting in extremely low re-entrainment and efficient particle collection. Using vanes also allows for higher operating air velocities resulting in a smaller equipment foot print.
Abstract:
A method for operating a dust collection device by reducing the adhesion of high-resistance dust while performing stable charging, with minimal pressure loss and high efficiency. The dust collection device comprises a pre-charging unit and a bag filter in a flue gas duct through which a gas flows, with the pre-charging unit disposed upstream from the bag filter, wherein the pre-charging unit comprises electrodes that charge the dust, a power source that supplies electric power to the electrodes, and a gas flow rate control device that adjusts the flow rate of the gas flowing through the pre-charging unit to a prescribed value. The method comprises a step of charging the dust by applying a voltage from the electrodes to the dust, and a step of removing the dust adhered to the electrodes by increasing the flow rate of the gas flowing through the pre-charging unit.
