Title:

ELECTROSTATIC ATOMIZING DEVICE AND HUMIDIFIER USING THIS

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/110640

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

A carrier is used to carry a liquid, and a high voltage is applied between the discharge end of the carrier and an electrode facing the end to emit liquid charged fine particles. The carrier is provided with a liquid collecting end at a portion opposite to the discharge end to feed liquid steam supplied from a steam generator to the liquid collecting end, condense it in the vicinity thereof, and supply the condensed liquid to the discharge end of the carrier. Accordingly, since a liquid containing positive ions of Ca, Mg or the like is used in the form of steam, the contents of these impurities can be extremely reduced to eliminate the deposition of impurities at the discharge end of the carrier and enable a stable electrostatic atomizing.
