Patent number: 10815133Abstract: An in-line fluid purification system uses a jacket (26) surrounding a fluid passageway (28), formed of a UV transmissive material. The jacket (26) may be surrounded by a UV reflective material (30). UV radiation (20) is coupled into the jacket (26), and the jacket (26) disperses and reflects the radiation over the entire cross section of the passageway (28). In this way, UV illumination of the full cross section of a fluid passageway (28) is ensured.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 2017Date of Patent: October 27, 2020Assignee: SIGNIFY HOLDING B.V.Inventors: Jacques Maria Jozef Geboers, Merlijn Antonius Petrus Maria Janssen

Patent number: 8729500Abstract: A dielectric barrier discharge, DBD, lamp device comprises a toroid shaped discharge chamber (10) having a discharge chamber wall (12). The discharge chamber wall comprises a tubular inner wall section (14), a tubular outer wall section (16), and two ring-shaped end wall sections (18, 20). Each of the end wall sections extend between an end of the outer wall section and an end of the inner wall section. A high voltage electrode (22) is provided at an outer surface of the outer wall section of the discharge chamber wall. A low voltage electrode comprises an electrically conducting fluid surrounded by the inner wall section of the discharge chamber wall. The DBD lamp device may be part of an optical fluid treatment device.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2011Date of Patent: May 20, 2014Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Olaf Mastenbroek, Robert Bak, Jacques Maria Jozef Geboers, Michiel Van Der Meer

Patent number: 8124012Abstract: An air purification system for a structure includes a first radiation source for generating UV-B and/or UV-C radiation and having an imaginary horizontal plane intersecting with the center of the first radiation source. The system further includes a first screen facing the first radiation source for preventing UV radiation generated by the first radiation source from radiating directly outward from the air purification system into a space below the imaginary horizontal plane. A second screen, facing the first radiation source as well as the first screen, is adjustable with respect to the first radiation source and is at least partially coated with a photo-catalytic material at a surface facing the first radiation source.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2008Date of Patent: February 28, 2012Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: Alain Louis Claude Leroux, Jacques Maria Jozef Geboers

Patent number: 7683343Abstract: A treatment system or treatment reactor (1) comprising at least one dielectric barrier discharge lamp (2) with a first electrode (20) and a housing (10) for containing a medium (3) like a fluid and/or a gas and/or a solid material which is to be treated by means of the radiation generated by the lamp (2) is disclosed which is especially characterized in that at least one second electrode of at least one lamp (2) is provided in the form of at least one intermediate counter electrode (3, 4) which is positioned within a volume (31) between at least one dielectric barrier discharge lamp (2) and the housing (10). By this, influences of the treated medium on the electrical behavior of the treatment system or reactor (1) and especially power losses in the medium can be avoided or considerably be decreased. Furthermore, losses of the lamp light due to absorption and/or shadowing at an outer electrode surrounding the lamp are avoided as well.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2006Date of Patent: March 23, 2010Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: Wolfgang Schiene, Georg Greuel, Jacques Maria Jozef Geboers, Arjan Van Der Pol

Publication number: 20100047138Abstract: The invention relates to a reactive oxygen species (ROS) generator (32), a washing device (30) and a washing method using such a ROS generator. The reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by such a generator provide excellent washing power, and degrade organic stains rapidly to environmentally acceptable products. The generator according to the invention consumes less energy for a. comparable washing effect as compared to conventional washing machines.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2007Publication date: February 25, 2010Inventors: Ingrid Josef Maria Snijkers-Hendrickx, Wilhelmus Frederik Laurens Maria Hoeben, Engelbertus Cornelius Petrus Maria Vossen, Jacques Maria Jozef Geboers, Saskia Maria Tromp-Van Den Bogaerdt

Publication number: 20090049985Abstract: The invention relates to an air purification system for a structure comprising a first radiation source (7) for generating UV-B and/or UV-C radiation and having an imaginary horizontal plane (13) intersecting with the centre of the first radiation source (7), a first screen (3) facing the first radiation source (7) for preventing UV radiation generated by the first radiation source (7) from radiating directly outward from the air purification system (1, 31, 35, 41) into a space below the imaginary horizontal plane (13), a second screen (5) facing the first radiation source (7) as well as the first screen (5), adjustable with respect to the first radiation source (7) and at least partially coated with a photo-catalytic material at a surface facing the first radiation source (7). The invention further relates to a method for purifying air inside a structure using such an air purification system.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 12, 2008Publication date: February 26, 2009Applicant: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS ELECTRONICS N.V.Inventors: Alain Louis Claude LEROUX, Jacques Maria Jozef GEBOERS

Patent number: 6764328Abstract: The electric lamp has a lamp vessel (1) composed of a glass bulb (2) and a glass plate (3) sealing the bulb (2). A shaped metal body (20) is embedded in the glass plate (3). The shaped metal body (20) has a plate-shaped metal member (10) with which a tube (11) is integral and with which current conductors (12) are integral via bridges (15). The glass plate (3) has at least one recess (4) in which a bridge (15) to a current conductor (12) is located, which bridge (15) has a disconnection (16) in the recess (4), thus insulating the relevant current conductor (12) from the metal member (10). The lamp is of a simple construction that can be easily realized. The current conductors (12) occupy a predetermined position with respect to one another in the lamp owing to the use of the shaped metal body (20), and fewer components have to be combined in the manufacture of the lamp.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2002Date of Patent: July 20, 2004Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: Hendrikus Albertus Maria Van Dulmen, Jacques Maria Jozef Geboers
