Abstract
The present invention relates to an ozone generating device, comprising: a main body, having a cavity, on the lateral sides further having a plurality of inlet holes, which connect the cavity to the exterior to let in air, and on the top side having a plurality of outlet holes, which connect the cavity to the exterior to let out air with ozone; two electrodes, attached to the bottom and the top side of the cavity, for generating an electric discharge, so as to generate ozone in the cavity; and a heating device, installed below the electrode at the bottom side of the cavity, so as to heat the electrode and, indirectly, air in the cavity; wherein heating the first electrode by the heating device allows the operating voltage for generating an electric discharge to be reduced and heating the air with ozone within the cavity causes it to drift upward and to flow out of the cavity through the outlet holes.
