Ozone generating system
First Claim
1. An ozone generating system comprising a housing having a closed interior with a removable end wall, a hollow casing in said housing including means to receive a coolant, the interior of said casing being isolated in sealed relation from the interior of said housing, a forced cooling system associated with said inner casing for circulating a coolant therethrough, at least one open-ended tubular portion extending through said inner casing, said tubular portion being formed of electrically conducting metal, at least one glass ozone generating tube having a diameter smaller than said tubular portion, an electrically conducting silver coating on the interior surface of said tube, a conductor leading into said tube for admitting high voltage into said tube, an electrically conducting band secured to said conductor and engageable with the coating around the interior of said tube, said ozone generating tube being removably supported in said tubular portion by axial movement thereof, spacer means holding said ozone generating tube centered in said tubular portion in circumferentially spaced relation thereto whereby said ozone generating tube upon a high voltage input being applied thereto operates with the metal in said tubular portion to provide ozone, the space between said ozone generating tube and said tubular portion communicating with the interior of said housing, and inlet and outlet means in said housing for receiving inlet air and discharging generated ozone, respectively.

Abstract
A housing has an interior casing receiving a coolant. This casing is associated with a forced cooling system and has open ended tubular portions therethrough formed of electrically conducting metal. Glass ozone generating tubes are removably supported in the tubular portions by axial movement and are held in spaced ozone generating position by spacers on the tubes. The tubes have an electrically conducting silver coating on the interior surface and have an interior band engageable with the coating for admitting high voltage to the tube from a conductor leading into the tube. A treatment tank associated with the ozone generating system has a recirculating conduit operably connected with the housing for the ozone generating tubes. An additional conduit extends from the treatment tank to a storage tank and a filter for filtering out coagulated material is provided in this conduit.
