Abstract
A device for directing a nebulized mixture includes a receiver, disposed at lower end of the device, to receive a nebulizer, an exhaust port to expel a nebulized mixture from the device, and a passage to transport the nebulized mixture from the nebulizer to the exhaust port. The device has an external shape of a novelty.
Claims18
A device for directing a nebulized mixture, comprising:
- an external shape in the form of a novelty and comprising a body portion and an end portion;
- an exhaust port in the end portion to expel the nebulized mixture from the device directly into the air;
- and
- a series of internal passages, including:
- a first passage defining a receiving cavity and extending from a base of the body portion to a second passage within the body portion,
- wherein a central axis of the first passage and a central axis of the second passage are vertically aligned, and
- wherein a diameter of the first passage is sized and configured to directly mate with a nebulizer,
- a third passage extending from the second passage to a fourth passage, the third passage having an angular bend which results in the fourth passage having an angle of at least 45 degrees relative to the first and second passages,
- wherein the fourth passage and the exhaust port are located within the end portion.
6 more elements
A method of directing a nebulized mixture comprising:
- receiving the nebulized mixture by a device which has an external shape of a novelty and includes a body portion, and an end portion, and a receiving cavity which directly holds a nebulizer;
- directing the nebulized mixture which has been received by the device through a series of internal passages within the device;
- and
- exhausting into the air towards a face of a person the nebulized mixture which has been directed by the device,
- wherein the device through which the nebulized mixture passes includes:
- an exhaust port to expel the nebulized mixture from the device directly into the air;
- and
- the series of internal passages, including:
- a first passage defining the receiving cavity and extending from a base of the body portion to a second passage within the body portion,
- wherein a central axis of the first passage and a central axis of the second passage are vertically aligned, and
- wherein a diameter of the first passage is sized and configured to directly mate with a nebulizer,
- a third passage extending from the second passage to a fourth passage, the third passage having an angular bend which results in the fourth passage having an angle of at least 45 degrees relative to the first and second passages,
- wherein the fourth passage and the exhaust port are located within the end portion.
