Claims27
An apparatus for administering an aerosol to the nasal cavity, comprising:
- an aerosol generating device having an atomizer for generating the aerosol;
- and
- an activating device comprising:
- a blow-in opening;
- a first control unit adapted to transmit an activation signal to the aerosol generating device in response to an exhalation of a person into the blow-in opening;
- and
- a blowing resistor configured to resist the person's exhalation,
- wherein the first control unit is adapted to wirelessly activate the aerosol generating device,
- wherein the first control unit comprises an integrated circuit and/or a transmitter for transmitting the activation signal to the aerosol generating device,
- wherein the aerosol generating device comprises a second control unit adapted to trigger aerosol generation by the atomizer upon receipt of the activation signal from the activating device,
- wherein the aerosol generating device comprises a sensor adapted to determine a position and/or location of the aerosol generating device in relation to the nose or nasal opening of the user,
- wherein the sensor is selected from at least one of a distance sensor, a range sensor, and a position sensor, and
- wherein the activating device comprises a pressure sensor adapted to detect a pressure or a pressure change in the activating device.
