Abstract:
1. A fluid dispersion assembly disposable into an operative engagement with a fluid container which contains an operative fluid and a compressed air source, said fluid dispersion assembly generating a fluid dispersion comprising a plurality of substantially uniform droplets of the operative fluid in air and discharging the fluid dispersion into an airspace surrounding said fluid dispersion assembly, said fluid dispersion assembly comprising: a diffusion unit having oppositely disposed ends, wherein said diffusion unit at least partially defines a substantially enclosed diffusion chamber, a cap cooperatively configured and disposed in a sealing engagement with one of said oppositely disposed ends of said diffusion unit, a service access port through said cap at least partially defining an access opening, and a service access plug removably disposable in a substantially sealing engagement with said access opening of said service access port, a discharge port disposed in fluid communication between said diffusion chamber and the airspace surrounding said fluid dispersion assembly, a diffusion assembly disposed in an operative engagement with said diffusion unit via a cartridge port, wherein said diffusion assembly comprises an atomizer assembly, said atomizer assembly comprising an atomizer air inlet channel, a fluid inlet, a mixing chamber, and an atomizer exhaust channel, said atomizer air inlet channel interconnected to the compressed air source and said fluid inlet disposed in fluid communication with the operative fluid in the fluid container, wherein the compressed air and the operative fluid are mixed together in said mixing chamber to form the fluid dispersion, a suppressor assembly disposed in communication with said diffusion assembly, said suppressor assembly comprising a suppression chamber structured to dampen sound waves generated during operation of said fluid dispersion assembly, and said diffusion chamber structured to facilitate formation of the plurality of substantially uniform fluid droplets of the fluid dispersion prior to discharge of the fluid dispersion from said diffusion chamber through said discharge port and into the airspace.
