  • Patent number: 10328218
    Abstract: A nebulizer system includes a body having a fluid chamber and an aerosol chamber, and a vibrator assembly positioned at an interface between the fluid chamber and the aerosol chamber. The vibrator assembly may include a diaphragm, having a fluid side and an aerosol side, defining a plurality of perforations between the fluid side and the aerosol side, and one or more vibrator elements operatively associated with the diaphragm to vibrate the diaphragm to produce aerosolized medicament projected into the aerosol chamber from the plurality of perforations. Each perforation of the plurality of perforations projects the aerosolized medicament along a respective projection path relative to a plane defined by the aerosol side of the perforation, the one or more vibrator elements or the diaphragm support substrate further being configured to angularly displace the aerosol side of the diaphragm to sweep the direction of at least one projection path.
    Type: Grant

Each perforation of the plurality of perforations projects the aerosolized medicament along a respective projection path substantially normal to a plane defined by the aerosol side of the perforation, the one or more vibrator elements further being configured to angularly displace the aerosol side of the diaphragm to sweep the direction of at least one projection path.
