ABSTRACT:
A device for applying unipolar electrical charges to a moving, essentially electrically conductive insulating surface. An elongated corona electrode, e.g., including a number of tip electrodes, along with one or more auxiliary electrodes, and an electrically conductive counter electrode, are provided. The counter electrode supports the insulating surface, and a high-voltage d.c. source is connected to the electrodes. A carrier made of electrically insulating material is provided in the form of a channel, including a bottom wall and two side walls. The free edges of the side walls face the counter electrode. The corona electrode is arranged in the channel and at the bottom wall, and does not project over the free edges of the side walls. The auxiliary electrode(s) is arranged at, or in the vicinity of, each edge of the side walls, between the corona electrode and the counter electrode. One pole of the high-voltage d.c. source is connected to the corona electrode, and the other pole is connected to the counter and auxiliary electrode(s). An ohmic resistor is connected between the other pole of the high-voltage d.c. source and the auxiliary electrodes.
