Date Feb. 1, 1996Disclosed is a medical nebuliser including a container providing a sump area for a liquid drug. A rotor is located in the container, and an impacter ring encircles the rotor. The rotor is formed from two disc shaped components at least one of which is concave. The components have co-operating mating faces machined so that when they are clamped together, microscopic passageways are provided therebetween. There is a connection between the interior of the rotor and a sump to contain liquid to be nebulised. The impacter ring has an impacter face that is an inwardly facing frusto-conical surface to encourage the return of larger droplets to the sump. The frusto-conical surface has a number of ridges in the form of concentric or helical grooves over its length, whereby there is the ejection of liquid drug from within the perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the rotor, of uniform and controlled droplet size which impacts on the ridges on the impacter ring to reduce the droplet size of liquid drug. |
