Portable atomizer apparatus

A portable atomizer, comprising a liquid dispenser including a cap connected directly to the dispenser, the cap having an aspirator and a spray orifice communicating directly with the aspirator, the orifice being integral with the cap;

• a pistol grip-type handle housing a reciprocating pump for directly supplying compressed air to the aspirator through a conduit extending outwardly from the surface of the handle adjacent the dispenser and communicating between the pump and the aspirator, a check valve between the pump and the conduit for permitting compressed air to flow only from the pump to the aspirator, an electric motor for driving the pump, a rechargeable battery electrically connected to the motor for powering the motor, a charger plug electrically connected to the battery and adapted to receive a converter for recharging the battery, and a trigger switch extending outwardly from the surface of the handle adjacent the dispenser and electrically connected to the battery and the motor for controlling the operation of the motor, wherein upon operation of the motor compressed air is delivered directly to the aspirator from the pump to immediately draw liquid from the dispenser, automatically atomize liquid drawn from the dispenser and instantaneously spray atomized liquid and compressed air from the orifice;
• and means for releasably connecting the dispenser to the pump and for permitting the dispenser, cap and spray orifice to be replaced unitarily, whereby a plurality of dispensers containing the same or different liquids may be used interchangeably without cross-contamination from one liquid to another.
