In fact, the micro-interface generator is a specific form of the micro-interface generator, whether it is a hydraulic micro-interface generator or a gas-liquid linkage micro-interface generator, however, the micro-interface generator adopted in the present invention is not limited to the above forms, and the specific structure of the bubble breaker described in the prior patent is only one of the forms that the micro-interface generator of the present invention can adopt.
