Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2000037730
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
A dispenser (30) for a washing machine integrates a bubble generator (304), an ozone generator (306), and a radical generator. In the dispenser for a washing machine, a housing has a gas mixing chamber therein. A bubble generator is disposed in the housing and generates air for generating air bubbles and ozone and pumping to the gas mixing chamber. An ozone generator is disposed in the gas mixing chamber and applies high voltage to the air introduced in the gas mixing chamber from the bubble generator in order to produce ozone. A radical generator has a ceramic catalyst for decomposing the ozone from the ozone generator into an oxygen for generating air bubbles and a generating oxygen to be reactive with a hydrogen ion in washing water in order to generate a radical. The dispenser sterilizes bacilli such as bacteria, viruses, mold, fungi, or algae which live in washing water or clothes. The dispenser also improves washing effect of a washing machine by oxidizing and bleaching actions of ozone and radical.
