Then, electric motor 731 alternates between normal and inverse rotations in a short stroke, as shown in Figs. 3(b) and 3(c), whereby shutter member 71 reciprocates in a short stroke such that brushes 72a, 72b clean corresponding electrode needle 42a, 42b in both directions (right and left directions in the embodiment) along the moving direction of the shutter member. At this point, during reciprocating, shutter member 71 does not open first opening 22. Therefore, during each electrode needle is cleaned, dust or particles removed from the electrode needle does not disperse from first opening 22.
  • centrifugal fan 3 continuously rotates while the shutter member reciprocates (or the electrode needle is cleaned), as shown in Figs. 3(b) and 3(c). Since first opening 22 is closed while the shutter member reciprocates, as shown in Fig. 4, air flow from centrifugal fan 3 pass through second opening 23 and HEPA filter 6 positioned at second opening 23 before flowing out. Therefore, dust or particles removed from the electrode needle are collected by HEPA filter 6 and does not disperse outside the device.

Further, since the series of operations as shown in Figs. 3(a) to 3(d) may be automatically carried out, the device does not need to be detached from the installation position thereof in order to clean the electrode, whereby the labor of the operations may be greatly reduced.
  • the brush is positioned on the shutter member. Instead, the shutter member and the brush may be separately constituted, and the brush may be configured to clean the electrode needle after the shutter closes the first opening of the housing. However, by the brush is positioned on the shutter member, another means for supporting and moving the brush is not necessary, whereby the number of components of the device may be reduced.

Abstract

Dispositif de neutralisation pouvant nettoyer automatiquement son électrode aiguille, et possédant une structure destinée à empêcher la dispersion de la poussière ou des particules produites pendant le nettoyage de ladite électrode aiguille. Au cours d’une opération de nettoyage, un moteur électrique (731) tourne de manière à ce qu’un élément obturateur (71) passe d’une première à une seconde position, ce qui permet de fermer une première ouverture (22) d’un logement (2). Ensuite, le moteur électrique (731) alterne rapidement entre rotations normales et inverses, ce qui fait que ledit élément obturateur (71) effectue un mouvement de va-et-vient rapide sur une distance courte et que des brosses (72a, 72b) nettoient les électrodes aiguilles (42a, 42b) correspondantes dans les deux directions le long de la trajectoire de déplacement de l’élément obturateur. Pendant le va-et-vient, cet élément obturateur (71) n’ouvre pas la première ouverture (22). Par conséquent, lors du nettoyage de chaque électrode aiguille, la poussière ou les particules provenant de l’électrode aiguille ne s’échappent pas de la première ouverture (22).
