Abstract: A mesh nebulizer includes a main body with a recessed portion opening upward. The nebulizer includes a cap that covers an upper portion of the main body and a replacement element separate from the main body and the cap and detachably mountable in the recessed portion of the main body while being separated from the cap prior to operation of the nebulizer. The replacement element includes a sheet including a mesh portion, a bottom plate portion, and a sidewall portion. When the cap is closed with respect to the main body, the cap presses the upper edge of the sidewall portion of the replacement element toward an edge portion around the recessed portion to position the replacement element with respect to a longitudinal axis direction of the main body.

Abstract: A mesh nebulizer that atomizes and ejects liquid through a mesh portion includes a vibration portion including a vibration surface facing upward, a liquid supply portion that supplies liquid toward the vibration surface of the vibration portion, a sheet including the mesh portion, and a support frame that supports a peripheral edge of the sheet. The support frame includes a bottom plate that supports a lower surface of the peripheral edge of the sheet, the bottom plate having a flat annular shape, and a larger inner diameter than a diameter of the vibration surface, and a protrusion radially protruding inward from the bottom plate. The sheet including the mesh portion faces the vibration surface at an inclination angle and is in contact with a first portion of a peripheral edge of the vibration surface.
