ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an air ionization device comprising a high voltage line which can be connected to an AC voltage power source and point electrodes which are coupled capacitively to the high voltage line for generating a corona discharge. In order to develop the air ionization device further in such a manner that it has a greater efficiency for the discharge of a dielectric object, it is suggested in accordance with the invention that the air ionization device comprise at least two point electrodes which are each connected via a diode to a DC voltage potential and each via an associated capacitor to the high voltage line, wherein the first point electrode is connected to the cathode side of the associated diode and the second point electrode to the anode side of the associated diode, and wherein a corona discharge can be formed between the two point electrodes and positive charge carriers can be generated at the first point electrode and negative charge carriers at the second point electrode continuously and simultaneously.
