Abstract

Described is an atomizing nozzle having a relatively small frontal area permitting insertion of a nozzle into small diameter medical conduit(s). A body of a preferred nozzle has a characteristic size (e.g., cross-section diameter) of less than about 0.2 inch (0.5 cm). The nozzle body is typically carried on an extension member, which can be transversely flexible to permit passage of a nozzle body through a tube and along a nonlinear path. The nozzle body is typically connected to an extension member by way of a lap joint associated with the nozzle body. Preferred embodiments have a De / O ratio of less than 12.0, a Db / O ratio of less than about 18, and a Db / De ratio of less than about 1.1. Certain embodiments include a swirling chamber disposed upstream of the ejection orifice and having a proximal wall with a portion configured to at least approximate a portion of a dome, or other curved surface.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to atomizing nozzles and apparatus for spraying a therapeutic fluid in the form of a mist or dispersed small particles. Certain devices described herein are particularly suitable for use in devices that can be inserted through small-bore tubing for administering a nebulized fluid to a patient. Background technique [0002] The construction and operation of some operable atomizing nozzles has been described in US Patent 6,698,429, issued March 2, 2004 to Perry W. Croll et al., entitled "Medical Nebulizer". This patent specification is incorporated herein by reference. The inventors' previous work on small atomizing nozzles disclosed in this patent specification is the state of the art in the field of disposable atomizing nozzle assemblies having a small cross-section so that they Can be inserted into medical tubes or holes. [0003] The assembly of a nebulizer according to the construction disclosed by Croll et al. inclu...
