Atomizers.
I, CHARLES LEWIS MOREHOUSE, Gentleman of 75 West 92 Street, New York
City, United States of America do hereby declare the nature of this invention and
in what manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and
ascertained in and by the following statement :-
The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved vaporizer for
vaporizing oils or medical preparations and spraying them into the nostrils, throat
and lungs.
The invention consists in the combination with an air forcing tube having a side
aperture, of a vessel at the side of the tube, an cjector tube projecting from the
air-forcing tube into said vessel, which vessel has a top aperture adjacent to the
side aperture of the air forcing tube.
The invention also consists in the construction and combination of parts and
details which will be fully described hereinafter and finally pointed out in the
claims.
In the accompanying drawings
Figure 1 is a side view of my improved vaporizer parts being in section and
others broken out.
Figure 2 is a detail side view of the vaporizing mechanism.
Figure 3 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view of the same.
Figure 4 is a vertical longitudinal sectional view on the line 4 4 of Figure 3.
The bottle A is provided with the screw neck A' on which the screw cap B is
screwed, said cap having a washer or packing ring C placed upon the top edge of
the neck A. From the cap B a tube D projects upward and is preferably provided
with a nozzle D'.

downward from the cap B and has its upper end connected with a curved tube F
projecting from the top of the cap, and the said 'tube F is connected by a flexible
tube G with a rubber air-compressing bulb H, having the usual valves h h'.
near the lower end of the tube E, a cylindrical vessel or piece J is fastened to the
side of the tube E and is provided with a conical top having a pin aperture J¹ at
its apex. The lower end of the cylindrical piece J is open. An approximately
U shaped ejector tube K has its shorter leg secured in the lower end of the tube É
and its longer leg projects upward in the cylindrical piece J. The tube E has a
side aperture M, adjacent to the pin hole J¹ in the top of the piece J.
The operation is as follows:-
When the air is compressed by compressing the bulb H, it passes through the
tube E and is emitted as an air jet through the aperture M, across the top of
the piece J and also passes through the ejector tube K where it serves to raise
the liquid in the piece J and to throw a jet of the liquid through the pin hole
in the top of the piece J. This jet is struck by the air jet issuing from the
aperture M, whereby the liquid is subdivided into the most minute particles, that
is, completely vaporized, and the vapor thus formed is forced out of the bottle A
through the tube D, by the pressure created within the bottle by operating the
vaporizer.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
1. In a vaporizer, the combination, with an air forcing tube having a side
aperture of an eiector tube connected with said air forcing tube, and a vessel into

page_text: which said ejector tube projects, which vessel has a pin aperture in its top end
adjacent to the side aperture of the air forcing tube, substantially as described.
2. In a vaporizer, the combination with a tube of means connected with the same
for compressing air, two independent outlet openings for the compressed air in said
tube, a vessel connected with the tube and having a top aperture adjacent to one of
the outlet apertures of the compressed air tube, and a pipe for conducting com-
pressed air from the other outlet of the compressed air tube into the vessel,
substantially as described.
Dated this 1st day of November 1892.
