Nebulisation venturi and device comprising the same
The nebulisation venturi includes a liquid supply duct and compressed air supply duct, each duct having a nozzle opening in the nebulisation zone in which the air arriving under pressure from the supply duct nebulises the liquid coming from the liquid supply duct. The venturi includes a regulator for the relative position of the liquid supply duct nozzle with relation to the compressed air supply duct nozzle. The regulator can adjust at least the longitudinal position of the liquid supply nozzle and/or the angular position of the liquid supply nozzle. The venturi preferably includes a supply duct for free air with a nozzle in the nebulisation zone and an opening to the outside.
1 . Venturi comprising
a liquid delivery conduit,
a pressurized air intake conduit, both conduits being comprised of each with at least one nozzle ending toward the nebulization zone in which air under pressure coming from the liquid delivery conduit, and
an adjusting means of the position of the liquid delivery conduit nozzle in relation to the pressurized air intake conduit nozzle.
2 . Venturi according to claim 1 , wherein said adjusting means is designed to adjust at least the longitudinal position of the liquid intake nozzle along the axis of the liquid delivery conduit.
3 . Venturi according to claim 1 , wherein a liquid intake nozzle does not have revolution symmetry in relation to the liquid delivery conduit axis and the adjusting means is designed to adjust at least the angular position of the liquid intake nozzle in relation to the liquid delivery conduit axis.
4 . Nozzle according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a free air intake conduit comprised of a nozzle in the nebulization zone and an open air opening.
5 . Venturi according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a taper downstream of the nebulization zone.
6 . Nebulization device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a venturi.
7 . Nebulization device according to claim 6 , further comprising:
a diaphragm placed at the outlet of the nebulization zone and designed to retain the nebulized liquid particles located in the lateral parts of the flow of particles coming out of the nebulization zone.
8 . Device according to claim 6 , wherein said venturi comprises an air suction conduit provided with a nozzle in the nebulization zone; and further comprising:
at another opening of the air suction conduit, a negative pressure sensor; and
a processing means of a signal coming from said sensor and representative of the negative pressure inside the suction conduit.
9 . Device according to claim 8 , wherein the signal processing means generates a sound, visual or remotely transmitted alarm, or causes electric power cutoff to the air compressor supplying pressurized air to the venturi.
10 . Device according to claim 8 , wherein said suction conduit comprises an open air opening.
