Microbubble-producing device

A microbubble-producing device comprising:

• a shaft comprising a first and second end;
• a microbubble-producing solution reservoir connected to said first end of said shaft;
• a housing connected to said second end of said shaft, wherein said housing contains a motor, a pump, and an air producing device, which are electrically connected to a power source;
• an air duct comprising a first and second end, wherein said first end is connected to said air producing device;
• a microbubble emitter comprising a first and a second end, wherein one end is secured to said second end of said duct, wherein said emitter comprises a wall surrounding a hollow interior, wherein a shelf comprising five to seven orifices is secured within said hollow interior to an inner surface of said wall, wherein each of the five to seven orifices includes a separate hollow tube secured thereto, which tubes extend to the second end of the emitter, wherein the size of each of the five to seven orifices is 1 mm;
• and
• a channel comprising a tubular structure with a first and second end, wherein said first end is submerged within said microbubble-producing solution reservoir and said second end is connected to said shelf through said wall of said emitter.

A handheld microbubble-producing device comprising:

• a shaft comprising a first and second end;
• a microbubble-producing solution reservoir connected to said first end of said shaft;
• a housing connected to said second end of said shaft, wherein said housing contains a motor, a pump, and an air producing device, which are electrically connected to a power source;
• an air duct comprising a first and second end, wherein said first end is connected to said air producing device and comprises a trough secured within a top portion thereof;
• a microbubble emitter comprising a first and a second end, wherein one end is secured to said second end of said duct, wherein said emitter comprises a wall surrounding a hollow interior, wherein a shelf comprising eight orifices is secured within said hollow interior to an inner surface of said wall, wherein each of the eight orifices includes a separate hollow tube secured thereto and extending to the second end of the emitter, wherein the size of each of the eight orifices and hollow tubes is 1 mm and the device is capable of producing microbubbles having a size of 1 mm;
• and
• a channel comprising a tubular structure with a first and second end, wherein said first end is submerged within said microbubble-producing solution reservoir and said second end is connected to said shelf through said wall of said emitter;
• and
• a recirculation channel comprising a tubular structure with a first and second end, wherein the first end is connected to the trough through the wall of the emitter and the second end is connected within the solution reservoir.
