Modular ion generator device
The present invention provides methods and systems for a modular ion generator device that includes a bottom portion, two opposed side portions, a front end, a back end, and a top portion. A cavity is formed within the two opposed side portions, front end, back end, and top portion. At least one electrode is positioned within the cavity, and an engagement device is engaged to the front end and/or an engagement device engaged to the back end for allowing one or more modular ion generator devices to be selectively secured to one another.
1. An ion generator device, comprising:
a housing comprising a front end and a back end;
a cavity formed within the housing;
a plurality of openings positioned along the housing;
an externally threaded collar extending outwardly from the front end;
at least one electrode extending from the housing; and
a conductive device disposed within the collar and an internally threaded receptacle within the back end containing a conductive element for allowing one or more modular ion generator devices to be selectively secured to each other.
2. The ion generator device of claim 1 , wherein one or more modular ion generator devices are selectively engaged to one another.
3. The ion generator device of claim 1 , further comprising a magnet positioned on the device for selectively securing the device to a metal surface.
4. The ion generator device of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of ridges adjacent the electrodes.
5. The ion generator device of claim 1 , where the electrodes may be removable.
6. The ion generator device of claim 1 , where the electrodes may be constructed of carbon fiber brushes, stainless steel or any other conducting type material.
7. An ion generator device, comprising:
a housing comprising a bottom portion that extends to an outer edge, two opposed side portions that extend upward from the outer edge, a front end that extends upward from the outer edge, a back end that extends upward from the outer edge, and a top portion;
a cavity formed within the two opposed side portions, front end, and back end;
a plurality of openings disposed on the top portion;
a plurality of electrodes positioned within the cavity;
an externally threaded collar extending outwardly from the front end; and
a conductive device disposed within the collar and an internally threaded receptacle within the back end containing a conductive element for allowing one or more ion generator devices to be selectively secured to each other.
8. The ion generator device of claim 7 , further comprising a power head engaged to the modular ion generator device.
9. The ion generator device of claim 7 , further comprising a magnet positioned on the device for selectively securing the device to a metal surface.
10. The ion generator device of claim 7 , further comprising at least one flange extending from the device for engaging a magnet thereto.
11. The ion generator device of claim 7 , further comprising at least one nipple extending from the top portion.
12. The ion generator device of claim 7 , where the at least one electrode may be constructed of carbon fiber brushes, stainless steel or any other conducting type material.
13. The ion generator device of claim 7 , further comprising a plurality of ridges adjacent the electrodes.
14. The ion generator device of claim 7 , wherein four fingers extend from the front end of the housing.
