Definitions
- the bottom portion may be a component of an aerosohzation device and the top portion may be marketed as a disposable unit containing the ampoule.
- the top portion having the ampoule may be inserted into the aerosohzation device and coupled with the bottom portion.
- the liquid may then be released from the ampoule and permitted to flow into the bottom portion.
- the ampoule region and the overflow region may comprise two elongate channels extending through the top portion so that overflow liquid may rise into the overflow region as previously described.
- an o-ring seal may be positioned between the top portion and the bottom portion to provide an appropriate seal.
- the invention further provides an exemplary method for aerosolizing a liquid.
- an ampoule containing a liquid is inserted into an aerosohzation device having a liquid feed system, an aerosol generator, and an exit opening.
- the ampoule is opened to permit liquid from the ampoule to drain into a liquid receiving region of the feed system.
- the aerosol generator is then operated to eject liquid droplets through the exit opening.
- Fig. 5 is a cross sectional view of a top portion of the liquid feed system of Fig. 1.
- the invention provides various liquid feed systems for aerosohzation devices along with methods for their use.
- the liquid feed systems may be used with a variety of aerosohzation devices that are configured to aerosolize a volume of liquid.
- aerosolizers may be of the type, for example, where a vibratable member is vibrated at ultrasonic frequencies to produce liquid droplets.
- Some specific, non-limiting examples of technology for producing fine liquid droplets is by supplying liquid to an aperture plate having a plurality of tapered apertures and vibrating the aperture plate to eject liquid droplets through the apertures. Such a technique is described generally in U.S. Patent Nos.
- the feed systems of the invention are also compatible with either a face seal interface, or a frame seal interface to the aerosol generator.
- the face seal configuration allows the feed system to be directly attached to the aerosol generator, and is useful when the feed system is removable.
- the face seal may be attached to the feed system or to the aerosol generator. Attachment of the seal to the feed system ensures seal replacement whenever the feed system is replaced.
- the frame seal configuration allows the feed system to attach to a permanent part of the device, such as the housing defining the liquid receiving region or a frame which holds the aerosol generator in place. Referring now to Figs. 1-3, one embodiment of a liquid feed system 10 will be described. To illustrate how feed system interacts with an aerosohzation device, feed system 10 is shown coupled to an aerosol generator 12.
- Feed system 10 is constructed of a feed system housing 28 having a top portion 30 and a bottom portion 32. As shown, top portion 30 is separate from bottom portion 32, and a seal 33 is used to create a fluid tight seal between the two portions. However, it will be appreciated that in some embodiments, the two portions may be integrally formed together. Bottom portion 32 defines a liquid receiving region 34 and is coupled to aerosol generator 12.
- bottom portion 32 includes a taped bottom end 36 that leads to an opening 38 just above rear surface 24 of vibratable member 20. In this way, liquid within bottom portion 32 flows by assistance of gravity onto rear surface 24 where it may be aerosolized.
- bottom end 36 serves as an interface with aerosol generator 10.
- seal 40 At bottom end 36 is a seal 40 that provides a fluid tight seal between bottom portion 32 and aerosol generator 10. Seal 40 may be constructed of a resilient material and may be compression sealed to aerosol generator 10 or held in place with a tight tolerance to minimize damping of vibratable member 20. Seal 40 may conveniently be attached to bottom end 36 or to support member 18.
- Top portion 30 includes an ampoule region 42 and a liquid overflow region
- top portion 30 is removable from bottom portion 32.
- bottom portion 32 may be incorporated into an aerosohzation device (where it is coupled to aerosol generator 12 as shown in Fig. 4A), while top portion 30 is a separate unit that is insertable into the aerosohzation device.
- a specific type of ampoule may be included within top portion 30 at the time of manufacture, and top portion 30 sold as a disposable unit.
- ampoule 46 includes both top tab 56 and bottom tab 54 when held within top portion 30 as shown in Fig. 5. When ready for use, bottom tab 54 is removed to form the drain opening.
- Bottom member 88 is interfaced to support member 102 by an adhesive bond so that liquid from the ampoule does not leak through this interface.
- Vibratable member 104 is positioned near an exit opening 110, such as an exit opening of a mouthpiece, so that aerosolized liquids may exit device 82.
- liquid may be removed from ampoule 132 by depressing lid 144 into ampoule region 130 until bottom end 134 is pierced by bottom piercer 140 and top end 136 is pierced by piercer 142.
- bottom portion 126 is coupled to an aerosol generator that is used to aerosol the liquid.
- the aerosol generator is essentially identical to aerosol generator 12 and, for convenience of discussion, will be referred to with the same reference numerals.
- Frame 14 may be an integral part of an aerosohzation device, or may be a snap in part that permits the entire feed system to be removed, such as during cleaning. In this way, the same parts may be used for both integrated and removable feed systems, as well as with integrated and removable top portions 124 as previously described.
