| 摘要 |
The invention relates to a method and device enabling, for example, an aerosol for lubricating and/or cooling an aerosol consumer (16,17) such as tools (17) and/or workpieces (17), to be used. The aerosol is created from a liquid and a carrier gas in an aerosol generator (3) and is conducted along a flow path (11) to the aerosol consumer (16,17). If the aerosol consumption process is interrupted in the aerosol consumer (16,17), as for example when a tool is changed (28), a fluid switching element (13) is provided in order to maintain the quality of the aerosol, said switching element comprising a branching element (15') which can be shifted from an operating position (14) to a bypass position (15). The aerosol is conducted to the aerosol consumer (16,17) in the operating position (14). In the bypass position (15), the aerosol is substantially conducted past the aerosol consumer by the branching element (15').
