Abstract:
1. An ion generator comprising: a casing that has an inlet through which air can flow in from outside and an outlet through which air can flow out to outside; an air passage through which the inlet and the outlet are connected to each other in the casing; and an ion generation device for discharging ions into the air passage, wherein the casing has, at its outer surface, an inclined wind guide surface, and the inlet is provided at the wind guide surface, wherein the casing has another outer surface that forms an acute interior angle with the wind guide surface and serves as an attachment surface for an attachment target, wherein the inlet is provided in a region of the wind guide surface, the distance of which from the attachment surface is shorter, wherein a first outlet is provided in a region of the wind guide surface, the distance of which from the attachment surface is longer, wherein a second outlet is provided in a region of the casing at which an end of the wind guide surface provided with the first outlet is connected to the attachment surface, wherein the air passage is internally provided with a guide portion by which part of air flowing from the inlet toward the second outlet is guided to the first outlet, and wherein the ion generation device is provided closer to the inlet than the guide portion.
