  • Patent number: 10471448
    Abstract: A pneumatic atomizing nozzle (10) which in a preferred form can be supplied with gas by means of a fan (43). The pneumatic atomizing nozzle (10) has a nozzle body (11), which bounds a flow space (21). The pneumatic atomizing nozzle (10) also has a liquid channel (27) having an outlet opening (38). Within the flow space (21), a liquid film (41) is formed, which is transported within the flow space (21) to a nozzle outlet (17) by the gas flow. The outlet opening (38) of the liquid channel (27) defines an outlet direction (A) for the liquid into the flow space (21), which in the preferred embodiment is opposite the flow direction (S) of the liquid film (41). At least in some sections, the liquid channel (27) and the outlet opening (38) extend transversely through the nozzle body (11) in a curved, wound, or meandering manner.
