Abstract
An essential oil reflux-type atomizer comprising the following structures: a chassis, housing, atomization chamber, gas pump, gas tube, gas nozzle, oil nozzle, and filter atomization mechanism. Oil and gas flow together at the gas and oil nozzles to disperse and atomize the oil in the gas flow. A heater is used to raise the temperature of the oil where it is atomized, either by heating the oil itself or by heating the gas flowing into the oil. Thus, the atomizer can have improved performance, especially with essential oils having high viscosity and molecular weight.
Claims20
An essential oil atomizer, comprising:
- a housing configured to connect to an oil receptacle, the housing having an atomization chamber from which atomized oil can be expelled;
- an atomizer nozzle assembly configured to expel atomized oil and gas into the atomization chamber, wherein the atomizer nozzle assembly is configured to be in fluid communication with oil in the oil receptacle, the atomizer nozzle assembly including a gas nozzle;
- and
- a heater contacting the gas nozzle and configured to apply heat to the gas nozzle to raise a temperature of gas in the gas nozzle.
An essential oil atomizer, comprising:
- a housing connectable to an oil receptacle and having a vent opening substantially aligned with a central vertical axis through the housing;
- an atomizer having a nozzle assembly comprising a gas nozzle and an oil nozzle, the atomizer configured to atomize oil from the oil receptacle by directing flow of a gas from the gas nozzle across the oil at the oil nozzle, wherein the flow of the gas and atomized oil is configured to pass out of the housing;
- a heating element mounted to the housing adjacent the gas nozzle and configured to raise a temperature of gas at the gas nozzle.
A method of atomizing essential oil, the method comprising:
- generating gas flow through a gas nozzle;
- heating the gas nozzle to raise a temperature of the gas flow;
- and
- generating oil flow through an oil nozzle, wherein the gas flow passes over an outlet of the oil nozzle to atomize the oil flow.
