Abstract: Inhalator, including a housing having a space formed therein which is accessible from outside the housing, a first fluid container having a pump and a second fluid container without a pump being selectably placeable in the space for emitting fluid, an atomizing element for receiving fluid emitted from the containers, a manually operable actuating element being slideable through a given region for turning the atomizing element on and off and for driving the pump of the first fluid container, and a fixed receptacle for selectably holding the first fluid container so it extends into the given region and for holding the second fluid container out of the given region.

Abstract: Atomizer for fluid, including an atomizer housing, a unitary fluid container removably inserted in the housing, an atomizing element activatable by ultrasonic flexural vibrations being disposed in the housing, means integral with the fluid container for transporting the fluid from the fluid container to the atomizing element, and manually activatable means for operating the transporting means and atomizing element.
