Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for dispersing a volatile composition into the air and, in particular, to a method and apparatus which relies upon an ion wind to facilitate the dispersal into the air of one or more volatile compounds from a source of a volatile composition.
- Compositions which are frequently dispersed into the air include insect repellents, insecticides and air freshening or room fragrancing compositions.
- Chemical insect repellents are known in the art and are widely used.
- N, N-diethyl-m- toluamide (DEET) is widely used as an insect repellent for use on clothing and the skin to repel insects which bite, such as mosquitoes.
- Citronella oil and eucalyptus oil are also used for the same purpose.
- the application of such chemicals has disadvantages in that they need to be frequently reapplied and they can produce allergic responses in some people.
- Pesticides such as synthetic pyrethroids also have a repellent and/or insecticidal action and can be used to treat clothing, mosquito nets etc..
- prolonged or frequent exposure to synthetic insecticides may be hazardous to health.
- insects can be excluded from contact with human beings by providing physical barriers, such as netting or fly screens, over windows and doors, or mosquito netting around beds.
- physical barriers such as netting or fly screens, over windows and doors, or mosquito netting around beds.
- the disadvantage of such physical barriers is that the entry of air is severely restricted when the barriers are in place because of the small mesh size required to exclude the insects. This leads to discomfort in hot climates.
- Another alternative for use in enclosed spaces, particularly for use overnight, is to burn an insect coil for example containing an insecticidal composition containing a pyrethroid active agent which may also have a repellent effect.
- an electrical device may be used in which insecticidal tablets containing an insecticidal composition such as a pyrethroid active agent which may also have a repellent effect are heated electrically so that the insecticide/repellent evaporates into the air space and repels and/or kills insects, in particular mosquitoes .
- insecticidal tablets containing an insecticidal composition such as a pyrethroid active agent which may also have a repellent effect are heated electrically so that the insecticide/repellent evaporates into the air space and repels and/or kills insects, in particular mosquitoes .
- fragrance compositions such as air fresheners
- an aerosol device may be used to dispense an aerosol spray of the fragrance composition.
- a disadvantage of such devices is that the fragrance generally only has an effect within the direction of the line of spray and does not last for very long.
- Other methods of delivering fragrance composition into a space include :- (a) natural evaporation of a liquid fragrance composition delivered to, and exposed to, the atmosphere by means of a porous wick;
- these methods simply distribute a fragrance within an enclosed environment, the sole purpose being to create a perfumed atmosphere.
- Ion winds are known in the art and an ion wind is generated as a direct result of the interaction between negatively or positively charged ions and air molecules. Ion winds are described and explained in "Electrostatics: Principles, Problems and Applications", J.A. Cross, 1987, Adam Hilger, pp 278- 284.
- Ion winds may be generated using an electrode arrangement in which a first electrode has one or more sharp points and a second electrode acts as an opposing electrode. If the electric field at the tip of the sharp point or points of the first electrode exceeds the breakdown field of air (approximately 30kV/cm) then electrical breakdown of the air will occur for either an ac or dc potential applied to the electrode. This phenomenon is generally termed "corona discharge”.
- ions which are of opposite polarity to that of the first electrode will be attracted to the first electrode and collected. Ions of the same polarity to that of the first electrode will be repelled by it, and will be attracted towards the second electrode.
- GB-A-2060076 describes an apparatus in which both positive and negative ionic species are generated using a plasma which is generated using radio- frequency methods.
- W092/15339 describes an apparatus in which an electrostatic charge is applied to a wick system. This results in the formation of a "Taylor" cone at the extremity of the fibres of the wick which causes atomisation of the liquid from the wick.
- SU-A-1803679 describes the use of an electrically driven fan to blow ionized air over a pina tree in order to disperse vapours from the tree into the air. None of the prior art devices results in a unidirectional induced airflow arising from momentum transfer and hence there is no ion wind produced in the prior art for product dispersion.
- the present invention provides a method of dispersing a volatile composition which method comprises: dispersing a volatile composition into an air stream; and generating an ion wind, thus causing the molecules of the volatile composition to become electrically charged.
- the present invention provides an apparatus for dispersing a volatile composition into the atmosphere, which apparatus comprises: a housing of an electrically insulating material which is in communication with the atmosphere outside the housing, the housing containing: (i) a source of a volatile composition; and (ii) means for generating an ion wind to facilitate dispersal of the source of the volatile composition into the atmosphere and to cause the molecules of the volatile composition to become charged.
- the present invention uses an ion wind which generates an ionized air flow to facilitate evaporation and dispersal of the volatile composition into the air.
- a unipolar charge will be transferred to individual molecules of the composition which is evaporated.
- the composition must be sufficiently volatile, optionally with the assistance of heat, that it can be dispersed into the ion wind air stream.
- the volatile composition will generally comprise one or more organic molecules.
- the ion wind not only facilitates the evaporation and dispersal of the volatile composition but also has the added advantages that the ion wind generating device has no moving parts and thus operates at very low noise levels. The ion wind thus acts as an essentially silent fan.
- the unipolar charge When the composition is vaporized, the unipolar charge will be transferred to any airborne dust particles, allergens, pollen, tobacco particles, microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses and fungal spores, which the vaporized molecules may encounter.
- the method of the present invention not only distributes the composition more effectively, but also enhances the removal of airborne particulates . This is because the air ions generated by the ion wind device attach to particles, such as dust particles as a result of collision and electrostatic attraction. The particles thus charged repel each other due to space charge effects, so reaching surfaces more rapidly than uncharged particles. In close proximity to surfaces (particularly grounded surfaces) the charged particles will be attracted to the surface by image charge attraction. In this way charged particles are precipitated from the air faster than uncharged particles.
- the means for generating the ion wind comprises a first electrode and a second electrode spaced therefrom to define a region there between, such that when an electrical direct current (dc) potential is applied across the first and second electrodes an electric field is created in the said region.
- dc electrical direct current
- the second electrode preferably has at least one opening therein through which the interior of the housing communicates with the atmosphere outside the housing.
- the first electrode has at least one sharp edge or point, for example needle-points, pin-points or razor blades.
- the second electrode is preferably a ring electrode, a tubular electrode, a grid electrode or a combination of one or more thereof. Generally, the second electrode will be earthed.
- the insect repellent or insecticidal source which is used will comprise a volatile insect repellent and/or insecticide which is chosen for its repellency and/or toxicity to certain target insect species.
- insects which it is generally desired to repel include mosquitoes, flies, midges and gnats and in particular those species of these insects which are known to carry disease .
- Naturally occurring or synthetic chemicals or chemical compositions which have a repellent effect on certain species of insects include eucalyptus oil, geranium oil, geraniol, pine oil, citronella, neem, thyme oil, thymol, camphor, citronelol, citronelal, linalool, carene, myrcene, terpinene, limnolene, cymene, citronellyl formate, geranyl formate, rose oxide, 2-alkyl-N-acetyloxazolidine, N-acetyl-2-alkyl- 4, -dimethyloxazolidine, dipropyl pyridine-2, 5- dicarboxylate, sec-butyl-2- (2-hydroxyethyl) -1- piperidine carboxylate, and methylnaphthalene.
- Citronella, neem and camphor also have an insecticidal action against some insect species.
- Insecticidal compositions which may also have a repellent action, include pyrethrum and the pyrethroid ester insecticides, including allethrin, bioallethrin, deltamethrin, permethrin and transfluthrin .
- the choice of particular repellent or insecticide for use in the present invention will be within the general knowledge of those skilled in this field. Reference may be made to Tomlin C.D.S. (1997) The Pesticide Manual, A World Compendium, BCPC, 11th Edition, 1400pp, or Brown M. & Herbert A.A. (1997) Insect repellents: an overview. J. Am. Acad. Dermatol . 36, 243-249.
- the volatile composition may also be an insect sex pheromone for use in mating disruption. For such a use the device could be used in a continuous or pulsed manner. Whilst there are many examples of sex pheromones which are or could be used in mating disruption, certain ones which may be listed in respect of the particular insects whose mating activates are disrupted are:
- Ephestia kuhniella (Mediterranean flour moth) - the sex pheromone is a blend of three components (1 or all may be used) :
- Graphol i tha molesta (Oriental fruit moth) - the sex pheromone is main component (Z) -8-dodecenyl which may be enhanced by addition of:
- Volatile liquids can also be dispersed which have activity in the air or on surfaces. Because the volatile molecules become charged by the ion-wind, they are attracted to surfaces in a room, and coat them. If the volatile liquid has anti-microbial activity micro-organisms on the surfaces can be counteracted. If the volatile liquid has allergen denaturing properties, allergenic particles on the surfaces car. be neutralised.
- the volatile liquid has anti-microbial activity
- collision of the charged volatile molecules with micro-crganisms in the air can result in the counteraction of the micro-organisms.
- the volatile liquid has allergen denaturing properties collision of the charged volatile molecules with allergenic particles in the air can result in the neutralisation of the allergen.
- the fragrance source which is used will comprise a volatile composition comprising one or more fragrant components.
- fragrance components are diethylpthalate, orange terpenes (limonene) , styrallyl acetate ester, Cyclacet, methyl ionone ketone, vanillin, Litsea Cybeba, 2-phenylethan-l-ol, dipropylene glycol and methyl-p-3°-butyl hydrocinnamyl aldehyde.
- the volatile composition is dispersed into the ion wind stream over a period of time.
- the chemicals are generally provided in the form of slow release formulations which may take any desired form.
- suitable slow release formulations include the following devices which are impregnated with the desired chemicals: wick or pads of cotton or a synthetic material fed from a reservoir of the composition, gels, rubber septums or strips, membranes, polyethylene vials with or without apertures, microcapsules, polymer beads, solid polymer dispensers, hollow fibres, trilaminate ribbons or extruded polymers.
- Other systems would include pulsed spray systems and heated evaporators.
- the gel will typically comprise carrageenan, water, a volatile component and an emulsifier.
- the volatile composition is provided as a liquid providing a reservoir for a wick or pad in contact therewith, the liquid will generally comprise volatile component alone, a volatile component and a solvent, a volatile component, a surfactant and water, or a volatile component, surfactant, water and a solvent. It will be understood that mixtures of volatile components may be used, as desired.
- the slow release formulation will be chosen to provide the release of the composition over the desired period of time.
- the device should provide a minimum of at least 8 hours release of the repellent, preferably from 10 to 12 hours.
- longer duration formulations are contemplated within the scope of the present invention which could provide release of the repellent/insecticide over a period of say one week or one month. In such situations the device would include a timer or other activation mechanism to prevent the chemical being released when it was not required, e.g. during daylight hours.
- the nature of the composition in particular the rate of evaporation of the volatile components of the composition, will need to be carefully selected.
- the ion wind speed needs to be appropriately selected, higher ion wind speeds providing faster evaporation of the volatile components.
- the surface area across which the volatile composition is evaporated is also important in determining the rate of evaporation, i.e. the surface area will need to be adapted to the air flow speed.
- the apparatus of the present invention may be constructed as a device which is directly plugged into an electrical mains socket, or as a device with an electrical lead enabling it to be positioned where desired within a room, for example clipped onto a bed headrest or positioned on a bedside table. Because the ion wind has a momentum, the charged ions are less likely to be collected on a wall when the device is plugged into an electrical mains socket.
- the device may be designed to fit into a light bulb socket, a motor vehicle lighter socket, or may be a free-standing battery powered device which could be positioned anywhere within a room or tent or vehicle .
- the source of the volatile composition is preferably disposed in the housing downstream of the first and second electrodes. However, it is also possible for the source to be positioned either between the first and second electrodes, or upstream of the first electrode. These latter arrangements will not be as efficient as the source being disposed downstream of the electrodes, because some of the composition will impinge on the second electrode.
- Another alternative arrangement is for a wick impregnated from a source of the volatile composition to form the second electrodes. This simplifies the construction of the device. Whilst an ion wind generating device has some effect alone in repelling insects, i.e. charged air molecules have some effect in repelling insects, the addition of a volatile insect repellent to the ionised air stream significantly enhances this repellent effect.
- Figure 1 shows a sectional drawing of one embodiment of the insect repellent device of the present invention.
- Figure 2 shows a schematic representation of an ion wind generating device with adjustable electrodes.
- the apparatus 1 comprises a housing 2 of a substantially insulating material, such as glass or plastic.
- the housing 2 has openings 3 and 4 at either end thereof in communication with the atmosphere .
- first electrode 5 Protruding into the housing is a first electrode 5, which is electrically conducting and which has a plurality of pointed tips 6.
- the electrode is insulated from the housing by suitable means not shown.
- a second electrically conducting earthed electrode 7 in the form of a screen or mesh is contained within the housing and spaced from electrode 5.
- a slow release source of a volatile composition 11 is positioned downstream of the second electrode. As the ionized air passes over the source 11, molecules of the composition are vaporized by the air stream and become charged by means of the ionized air. The charged molecules of the composition are illustrated at 12. As shown schematically in Figure 1 the charged molecules 12 of the volatile composition will be attracted to any body 13 in the air due to the configuration of the electric field in close proximity to the body 13. When the volatile source is an insect repellent, the charged molecules will be attracted to insects. When the volatile source is a fragrance composition, the charged molecules will be attracted to particles, such as dust particles, in the air.
- an ion wind generating device was constructed from two plastic tubes 15, 16 measuring 50mm in diameter and 50mm in length.
- the first tube 15 has a metal grid 17 covering one end thereof, with the spacings between the wires of the grid being 6mm.
- the grid was earthed via a suitable wire connection 18.
- the corona electrode 19 which comprised a cross formation comprising aluminium strips holding tufts of stainless steel brushes 20.
- Each arm of the cross comprised four tufts of brushes, 12mm apart.
- the electrode 18 was connected to a voltage source via a cable 21.
- the two plastic tubes 15, 16 were held together with a cylinder of transparent plastics material 22 along the inside of which the two tubes 15, 16 could be slid. In this way the spacing between the earthed grid 17 and the corona electrode 18 could be varied.
- a voltage of lOkV was applied from a power supply at a current not exceeding 200 ⁇ A.
- the device acts as simple fan, so that the volatile repellent substance is dispersed quickly.
- the molecules of the repellent show enhanced targeting. This occurs because the stream of charged ions produced by the device confers a charge to the volatile repellent molecules, thereby producing charged repellent molecules. Contact with the insects themselves, any surfaces the insects touch, including the animal host, is thus enhanced. This may result in a reduction in the number of flights, landings and bites by the insects.
- An additional advantage is that less repellent may be required to achieve the same, or even greater effect, because of the enhanced targeting.
- the method and apparatus of the present invention when used for dispersing a fragrance composition provide an enhanced distribution of the fragrance composition within a space, as compared to other known methods.
- the plume of the fragrance composition carries a unipolar charge
- the molecules will interact with any particle in the atmosphere leading to an enhanced clearing of the air because the dust or other particles become indirectly charged and precipitate due to mutual repulsion.
- the molecules of the fragrance composition carry a unipolar charge, these molecules will be attracted to the human body and face, thereby giving an enhanced fragrance effect to a person in the vicinity of the apparatus. Additionally, there will also be a longer lasting fragrance effect due to the result of the deposition of the fragrance composition in the nasal region of a person in the vicinity of the apparatus. These effects are achieved because the molecules of the fragrance composition will seek to disperse as a result of mutual repulsion and will preferentially move towards grounded surfaces .
- the ion wind generating device as described with reference to Figure 2 was used to generate an ion wind airflow of 0.5 m/second with a spacing of 25mm between the electrodes.
- a specially constructed test room was used as the test chamber.
- the door of the room was modified, so that it had a rectangular hole, measuring 62.5cm x 62.5cm at the base.
- Two circular holes measuring 10cm were cut in the door at 141cm and 65cm from the ground.
- the lower shelf was used to hold an ion wind generating device in position during the test.
- the ion wind generating device was constructed from a 6mm thick Perspex tube (100mm external diameter) in which the electrodes were housed.
- the high voltage electrode was a seven pin brass electrode, whilst the other electrode was a coiled electrode made of brass.
- the device was otherwise constructed and connected in an manner identical to that described with reference to Figure 1.
- a small shelf was constructed just below the hole to allow a glass vial containing the repellent compound to be positioned in such a way that evaporating molecules would be picked up by the ion wind stream.
- the upper hole allowed visual access to the room and acted as an entry point for the mosquitoes. Tubegauz was attached around the holes on the outside of the door to prevent any escapes.
- the interior of the room contained a large cage constructed of narrow metal girders (Dexion) . This measured 183 x 62.5 x 62.5 cm. This cage was covered with lining paper on four sides. The base of the cage and one end were left open. Masking tape was used to secure the paper to the cage. An opening (21 x 29.5) cm was cut in the top of the paper 16 cm from the closed end. A piece of nylon netting was used to cover this. This opening provided a window through which the odour and warmth of the human test subject could escape and attract the mosquitoes. A foam rubber mattress covered with polythene sheeting was placed inside the cage for the comfort of the human test subject .
- the cage was closely aligned with the hole in the bottom of the door, so that the gap was continuous with the cage.
- the cage was then taped to the floor on the outside with making tape.
- An electric heater maintained the room at 24°C (+/- 2°C) .
- the room was otherwise empty.
- mosquitoes Thirty minutes before the start of each test, fifty female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes were placed into the test room. The mosquitoes had previously been fed only on a 50/50 sugar/water mixture, and had not received a blood meal. They had not previously been used in a test.
- the human subject entered the cage and lay on the mattress, so that the face of the subject was directly below the opening.
- Citronella was released by placing it in a small glass vial containing a cotton wick. Each experimental condition was tested for 20 minutes. The human subject was asked to observe the behaviour of the mosquitoes and call out 'land' each time a mosquito landed on the net and 'touch' if this lasted less than a second. Each event was recorded by the experimenter who sat behind the door. Each time a mosquito flew past the subject's field of view it was recorded by the subject with a tally counter. Each twenty minute period was divided into 5 minute periods. The subject was asked every 5 minutes to call out the number of the counter, which was then recorded.
- insects were killed with a fast acting pyrethroid spray.
- the room was vented for 1 hour before all surfaces in the room were washed with a detergent solution.
