  • Patent number: 5549102
    Abstract: The invention relates to a nebulizer, especially for application in devices for inhalation therapy. The nebulizing chamber 1 is closed at the bottom by a liquid collection region 2. The liquid mist is inhaled by the patient through a short suction pipe 4 from the nebulizing chamber 1. The process of mixing and homogenization is provided in a very effective manner by the nebulizing chamber divider 6, by means of which one part 1a of the nebulizing chamber 1, which lies in the immediate vicinity of the opening of the short suction pipe 4, is divided to a certain degree from the remaining part 1b of the nebulizing chamber 1. The nebulizing chamber divider 6 in the nebulizing chamber functions as baffle plate, which prevents overly large droplets from being dragged along into the opening of the short suction pipe and for the settling out or precipitation of the overly large droplets, and thus for the homogenization of the liquid mist.

  • Patent number: 5312046
    Abstract: A liquid atomizer having only two housing sections, which can be forced into engagement, so that the prescribed distances within the segment forming the nozzle body are set semi automatically. In addition, at least one of the housing sections is equipped with a springy element, which, however, is designed integrally with the housing section. The springy element may be a weakened wall segment.
