The present disclosure relates to the field of environmental disinfection, and in particular to a plasma generation device.
A large number of bacteria, viruses, microorganisms and so on in air can pose a hazard to human health. To ensure cleanliness of air within a certain range, the air can be disinfected. Compared with activated carbon and other filtering methods, plasma disinfection has a stronger effect and a faster acting time.
An existing plasma air purifier includes a plurality of components, such as an air suction device, a disinfection device, and an air discharge device. The plasma disinfection device includes a plasma generating barrel and a discharge module in the plasma generating barrel. A discharge needle (which is relatively thin, and is fixed on a printed circuit board (PCB)) in the discharge module discharges in the generating barrel to generate a plasma, and air is disinfected by a bottom blower when passing through the generating barrel. According to the prior art, the generating barrels are circular cylinders mostly, as shown in
Therefore, efforts are made by those skilled in the art to develop a plasma generation device. Without changing a plasma generation efficiency, this plasma generation device further improves the ventilation rate and the disinfection efficiency.
In view of defects of the prior art, a technical problem to be solved by the present disclosure is to further improve a ventilation rate and a disinfection efficiency, without changing a plasma generation efficiency.
To achieve the above objective, the present disclosure provides a plasma generation device, including a frame, a first discharge needle, and plasma generating barrels, where the plasma generating barrels form an array in the frame; the first discharge needle is provided on a geometric centerline in each of the plasma generating barrels; and a distance from a discharge endpoint of the first discharge needle to any point on an edge of the plasma generating barrel is identical.
Further, a virtual sphere is formed with the discharge endpoint of the first discharge needle as a center; the sphere is tangent to the edge of the plasma generating barrel; and a resulting tangent line is taken as a new edge of the plasma generating barrel.
Further, the plasma generating barrels do not form an inter-barrel gap.
Further, the plasma generating barrels are square, orthohexagonal, and regular triangular.
Further, the plasma generating barrels are circular.
Further, a second discharge needle is provided at a geometric centerpoint in a gap of the array; a virtual sphere is formed with a discharge endpoint of the second discharge needle as a center; the sphere is tangent to an edge of each of four adjacent plasma generating barrels; and a resulting tangent line is taken as a new edge of the plasma generating barrel.
Further, the discharge endpoint of the first discharge needle is not higher than a lowest point of the new edge of the plasma generating barrel; and the discharge endpoint of the second discharge needle is flush with a highest point of the new edge of the plasma generating barrel.
Further, the plasma generation device further includes a PCB; and the first discharge needle and the second discharge needle are provided on different PCBs.
Further, the plasma generation device further includes the PCB; the first discharge needle is electrically connected to the PCB; and both the first discharge needle and the PCB are provided in a streamwise direction.
Further, the plasma generation device further includes a PCB; two sides of the PCB are provided with the plasma generating barrels; and corresponding plasma generating barrels at the two sides share one discharge needle.
Further, the discharge needle has a high level, and the plasma generating barrel has a low level.
According to the technical solutions provided by the present disclosure, in combination with advantages of a circular cylindrical plasma generating barrel and a square cylindrical plasma generating barrel, the present disclosure maximizes the ventilation rate and the disinfection efficiency of plasma ionization at a most economical voltage.
In order to make the objectives, features and effects of the present disclosure fully understood, the concepts, specific structures and technical effects of the present disclosure are clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the examples and drawings.
Multiple preferred embodiment of the present disclosure will be introduced below with reference to the accompanying drawings, such that the technical contents can be understood clearly and easily. The present disclosure can be embodied by embodiments of many different forms, and the protection scope of the present disclosure is not limited to the embodiments mentioned herein.
In the drawings, components with the same structure are denoted by the same numeral, and components with similar structures or functions are denoted by similar numerals. The size and thickness of each component are randomly shown in the drawings, and the present disclosure does not limit the size and thickness of each component. In order to make the illustration clearer, a thickness of a component is appropriately exaggerated in some places of the drawings.
According to the plasma generation device in the embodiment, a circular plasma generating barrel is changed into a square plasma generating barrel. Compared with the conventional circular generating barrel, the inter-barrel gap is eliminated, all effective areas in a frame of the plasma generation device can fall within a plasma generating range, and the effective ventilation rate is maximized with the elimination of the inter-barrel gap. Likewise, in case of a same air volume, a size and a power of a blower can be reduced correspondingly.
However, only by simply changing the circular plasma generating barrel into the square plasma generating barrel, a new problem will arise. Distances from an endpoint of a discharge needle to four edges of the square plasma generating barrel are different. That is, there are far distances from the endpoint of the discharge needle to four corners of the square plasma generating barrel, and close distances from the endpoint of the discharge needle to midpoints of the four edges of the square plasma generating barrel. This lowers a plasma generation efficiency. In order to overcome the problem, an improvement is made to the edge of the square plasma generating barrel in the embodiment, as shown in

Therefore, all technical solutions that a person skilled in the art can obtain based on the prior art through logical analysis, reasoning, or finite experiments according to the concept of the present disclosure shall fall within the protection scope defined by the appended claims.
