摘要

The disclosed air conditioner is provided, in the main body (1) of an indoor unit, with an ozone and ion generating device for generating ozone and ionic wind by electric discharge. The ozone/ion generating device is arranged in said main body such that the ionic wind generated by the ozone/ion generating device moves through a wind passage from an outlet side to an inlet side. By filling the main body with ozone by means of the ionic wind and purifying the inside of the main body, the disclosed ozone/ion generating device, and air conditioner provided therewith, are capable of sterilization by diffusing a sufficient amount of ozone, and of sufficiently preventing the growth of mold and bacteria.
