'2. In an ozone generatorjan elongated, clear,
gas-filled sealed tube having an encircling grid of longitudinally fluted metal of Starshaped transformer I5 must; be of a type which will w a handle the voltage rise due to the conde'nserac} tion of the grid and tube. That istp say, a'l rans former must be employed with' a heavy enough insulation to withstand the tremendous, voltage received by the condenser holding th charge; v
7 cross section }having perforationsformed along 1 the ridges and valleysthereof, means for holding *j s aidfitube in spaced relation to said grid and high tension connections to the gaseous filling of the'tube and to the encircling grid.
