  • Patent number: 11058782
    Abstract: A method of implementing and using an apparatus (1a,1b,13,25) to achieve hand sanitisation by application of ozone. The apparatus has a disinfecting chamber (3,3?,110) with at least one port (2) adapted for insertion of at least one hand into the disinfecting chamber (3,110). A sensor (4) detects entry and/or exit of the hand (26) into the disinfecting chamber (3,110). An ozone water output (7,130) of an ozone water supply (8) is arranged to deliver ozone water to the at least one hand (26) when inserted into the disinfecting chamber (3,110). Control means (6) times start and stop of a discharge of ozone water from the at least one ozone water output (7,130) into the disinfecting chamber (3,110) when the at least one sensor (4) detects entry of the at least one hand (26) into the disinfecting chamber (3,110).

  • Publication number: 20180008734
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for hand sanitisation by application of ozone. The apparatus includes a disinfecting chamber having at least one port for receiving a hand therein and a sensor for detecting entry or exit of the hand into the chamber. The apparatus delivers ozone water to the hand while a controller provides start and stop times for the delivery of the ozone water. This results in improved sanitisation of the hand or hands.

  • Patent number: 6994832
    Abstract: An ozone generator system (1) in which a multitude of plate type ozone generators (2) are arranged adjacent to each other in a block (3). Each ozone generator comprises a chamber, adapted for converting oxygen to ozone by a corona discharge, and each chamber is provided with an inlet for oxygen or an oxygen-rich gas and an outlet for ozone. Said ozone generators are arranged in a block module (26) in which they are affixed by a block rack (4). Said block rack comprises an inlet port (5) adapted for introduction of oxygen gas, and an outlet port (6) adapted for discharge of ozone created through conversion within the generators comprised in the block module. A multitude of first conduits (7), each running between said inlet port and one chamber inlet, and a multitude of second conduits (8), each running between said outlet port and one chamber outlet, are provided within said block rack.

  • Patent number: 6726885
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for ozone generation and a method for generating ozone by exposing oxygen to high frequency alternating current with high voltage over a dielectric. The apparatus comprises a pressure compensation admitting unit joined together by at least two plates of a dielectric material and therebetween a present electrode on which high frequency alternating current with high voltage is applicable, and two sealed spaces for generation of ozone on opposite sides of the unit, whereby the respective sealed space, on the opposite side of said plate of dielectric material, is delimited by an earthed and cooled electrode, through which oxygen gas or gas rich in oxygen is supplied to the space and ozone is conducted out of the same. By means of this apparatus, oxygen gas or gas rich in oxygen can be conducted under pressure into sealed chambers on opposite sides of the pressure compensation admitting unit.
