Material recovery and capture device for atomized material delivery apparatuses

An atomized material inhalation device comprising:

• a material chamber;
• an air source;
• a flow passage connecting the air source to the material chamber;
• and
• a recovery and collection assembly, the recovery and collection assembly comprising:
• an outer tubular housing, the outer tubular housing including
• a sidewall defining an outer chamber;
• an upper end piece attached to an upper end of the sidewall;
• and
• a lower end piece attached to a lower end of the sidewall, the lower end piece having at least one air flow opening extending between an interior of the outer chamber and an exterior atmosphere surrounding the recover and collection assembly, the at least one air flow opening allowing fluid communication between the interior of the outer chamber and the exterior atmosphere surrounding the outer tubular housing;
• an input tube extending within the outer chamber from the lower end piece in a region of the lower end piece adjacent the at least one air flow opening, the input tube having a first end proximate the lower end piece, the first end being in fluid communication with the material chamber, and a second end disposed in an upper half of the outer chamber and in fluid communication with the outer chamber, the input tube defining an inner chamber;
• and
• a joint member attached to the first end of the input tube, the joint member extending through the lower end piece in a region adjacent the at least one air flow opening and configured to permit the at least one adjacent air flow opening to engage with the exterior atmosphere.
