  • Patent number: 6530370
    Abstract: A nebulizer apparatus to atomize liquid solutions or suspensions. The nebulizer is typically used in conjunction with a breathing circuit to deliver atomized medicine to a patient. A housing with an opening covered by a thin mesh plate is supplied with the liquid to be nebulized on an “on-demand” basis. The mesh plate or liquid is vibrated at ultrasonic frequencies to atomize the liquid as it passes through the plate into breathing gases flowing through the breathing tube.

  • Patent number: 4644281
    Abstract: The invention relates to a coil arrangement for producing a homogeneous magnetic field especially for application to so-called NMR-imaging. An object of the invention is in terms of the size of a coil arrangement to expand the homogeneous area produced by a coil arrangement and, at the same time, to maintain the design of a coil arrangement simple and its manufacturing costs low. According to the invention, a coil arrangement includes three solenoids having a common axis, of which the axial winding width (W1) of the middlemost solenoid (1) is 2.75 . . . 2.95, preferably 2.835 . . . 2.855 times the mean radius (r1) of the middlemost solenoid (1) and the mean radius (r2) of the outermost solenoids (2) is 1.05 . . . 1.07, preferably 1.055 . . . 1.061 times the mean radius (r1) of the middlemost solenoid (1) and the axial winding width (W2) thereof is 0.32 . . . 0.38, preferably 0.340 . . . 0.342 times the mean radius (r1) of the middlemost solenoid (1).
