Patent ID: 8241407

Claim:
An electrostatically atomizing kit for use in a vehicle equipped with an air conditioning system having a ventilation duct blowing a conditioned air into a passenger's room through a blow port, said kit comprising: an atomizing unit having an emitter electrode, a water-supply means for supplying water to said emitter electrode, a high voltage source, and a discharge port, said high voltage source applying a high voltage to said emitter electrode so as to electrostatically atomize the water on the emitter electrode into charged minute water particles in the form of a mist, which is discharged out through said discharge port; a mist feeding duct extending from said discharge port of the unit and being coupled to said ventilation duct upstream of said blow port so as to carry the mist on the conditioned air flowing through said ventilation duct, thereby producing a mist carrying conditioned air blown through said blow port; and a plurality of deflector ducts selectively detachable to said blow port, said deflector ducts being differently shaped to each other to deflect the conditioned air carrying said mist in different directions, wherein said plurality of deflector ducts comprise at least two deflector ducts of a deflector duct which is U-shaped to deflect the conditioned air toward the floor in said passenger's room, a deflector duct which is shaped upwardly to deflect the conditioned air toward the passenger's head, and a deflector duct which is shaped laterally and upwardly to deflect the conditioned air towards a side window in said passenger's room.
