  • Patent number: 11384718
    Abstract: A robust apparatus to improve the efficiency and emissions of a combustion process using a plurality of cell elements disposed within a housing that is placed in the air intake to a combustion chamber. The ozone cell includes an element assembly where the cell elements are bonded together with two or more mounting rings. The mounting rings incorporate rubber-like mechanical isolation such as an o-ring between the mounting rings and the cell elements. The cell elements may also include rubber-like isolation between the insulating tubes and the outer electrodes. The robust element assembly as described herein is better suited to survive the harsh environment of the ozone cell place in or near a combustion engine or process.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11255301
    Abstract: A robust apparatus to improve the efficiency and emissions of a combustion process using a plurality of cell elements disposed within a housing that is placed in the air intake to a combustion chamber. Each of the plurality of cell elements include an inner electrode and an outer electrode. The inner electrodes are electrically and physically bonded to a bonding ring. The bonding ring with the bonded inner electrodes may then be encased in a potting material to provide a robust element assembly. The opposing end of the element assembly may also be bonded together in a potting material. The robust element assembly as described herein is better suited to survive the harsh environment of the ozone cell place in or near a combustion engine or process.
