First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An ion generator, comprising: a plastic plate; a copper discharge electrode formed on a first surface of the plastic plate, the copper discharge electrode having at least one discharge needle; a ground electrode formed on an opposite surface of the plastic plate; and a metal coating layer coated on the copper discharge electrode. 2. The ion generator of claim 1 , wherein the plastic plate is formed of epoxy resin. 3. The ion generator of claim 1 , wherein the metal coating layer is formed of gold. 4. The ion generator of claim 1 , wherein the copper discharge electrode is formed on a portion of the first surface of the plastic plate, and the ground electrode is formed on a portion of the opposite surface of the plastic plate. 5. The ion generator of claim 4 , further comprising a coating layer formed on a portion around the copper discharge electrode on the first surface of the plastic plate. 6. The ion generator of claim 5 , further comprising a photo catalyst coating layer coated on the coating layer. 7. An ion generator, comprising an ion generating module, a high voltage generator applying a high voltage to the ion generating module, and a housing in which the ion generating module and the high voltage generator are installed, wherein the ion generating module comprises: a plastic plate; a copper discharge electrode formed on a first surface of the plastic plate, the copper discharge electrode having at least one discharge needle; a ground electrode formed on an opposite surface of the plastic plate; and a metal coating layer coated on the copper discharge electrode, and wherein the high voltage generator comprises a printed circuit board, a winding-type transformer formed on the printed circuit board, and a transformer housing formed on the printed circuit board and surrounding the winding-type transformer. 8. The ion generator of claim 7 , wherein the plastic plate is formed of epoxy resin. 9. The ion generator of claim 7 , wherein the metal coating layer is formed of gold. 10. The ion generator of claim 7 , wherein the copper discharge electrode is formed on a portion of the first surface of the plastic plate, and the ground electrode is formed on a portion of the opposite surface of the plastic plate. 11. The ion generator of claim 10 , further comprising a coating layer formed around the copper discharge electrode on the first surface of the plastic plate. 12. The ion generator of claim 11 , further comprising a photo catalyst coating layer coated on the coating layer. 13. A method of manufacturing an ion generator, the method comprising the steps of: forming a copper discharge electrode by etching a portion of a copper plate formed on a plastic plate; forming a coating layer by ink-coating a portion around the copper discharge electrode; and coating a metal coating layer on the copper discharge electrode. 14. The ion generator of claim 13 , further comprising: drying the ion generator; and coating a photo catalyst on the coating layer. 15. The ion generator of claim 14 , wherein the step of coating the photo catalyst is wet-coating the photo catalyst on the coating layer. 16. The ion generator of claim 14 , wherein the step of coating the photo catalyst is dry-coating the photo catalyst on the coating layer.
