Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for the generation of an exact dose of and making available of an aerosol and which includes: a dispersing nozzle (3) for mixing a liquid containing the effective substance with a gaseous dispersion medium while forming an aerosol, an aerosol drying vessel (4) for buffering and drying the aerosol produced by the dispersion nozzle (3), the aerosol drying vessel (4) being connected to the dispersing nozzle (3) and the aerosol being sprayed from the dispersing nozzle (3) into the aerosol drying vessel 4), a liquid supply apparatus (1) for making available and supplying defined amounts of the liquid containing the effective substance to the dispersing nozzle (3), a dispersion medium supply apparatus (2) for making available and supplying the dispersion medium to the dispersing nozzle (3) at a specified pressure, and a control means (5) connected to the supply apparatus (1, 2) for coordinating and controlling the supply of dispersion medium and the liquid containing the effect

Abstract: A nebuliser nozzle is described for nebulising a pulverous or liquid nebulising material, especially for the inhalation therapy, comprising a nozzle body consisting of a nozzle insert member (1) and a nozzle receiving member (2) for receiving the nozzle insert. The nozzle insert member (1) comprises a contact surface (11) and a channel (13) for the supply of the nebulising material. The nozzle receiving member (2) has a receiving surface (21) on which the contact surface (11) of the nozzle insert member (1) rests, channels (22) for the supply of a compressed air and a mixing chamber (23) into which the channel (13) for the nebulising material and the channels (22) for the compressed air open out.

Abstract: The apparatus according to the invention for drying and buffering wet aerosols for purposes of inhalation therapy comprises a rotationally symmetric main body, a tubular member arranged on one of the front ends and protruding by a defined length into the main body, and an intake air member through which ambient air can flow into the main body when the patient inhales the aerosol stored in the main body via the other tubular member. In this respect, two spiral turbulences are formed one inside the other, the outer one of which prevents an impaction of the aerosol particles against the inside wall of the vessel.
