Abstract

The invention provides an electro-mechanical device for atomization of fluid. The device consisting of a piezoelectric transducer used for the generation of ultrasonic waves by converting electrical energy into mechanical energy. The fluid flowing over the vibrating surface absorbs the electromechanical energy and breaks down into smaller particles. The device can be used in multiple functionalities for various fluid, one such major application being atomization of water in outlets like, but not limited to, faucets, shower, taps, etc. Further, water atomized by this process finds application in heavy industries, industrial washing of fruits and vegetables, domestic uses like showering, cleaning, etc., and the travel industry like airlines, train, space mission.

Claims (14)

1. A fluid atomizing device, said device comprising:at least one fluid inlet chamber configured to allow fluid inflow to said device;at least one flow restrictor configured to restrict the flow of said fluid from said fluid inlet chamber;at least one piezoelectric transducer along characterized in that said piezoelectric transducer is disposed below said flow restrictor such that said fluid falls on said piezoelectric transducer to produce high frequency vibrations; andsaid deviceâ s base consisting of at least one orifice characterized in that ultrasonic waves are generated by the influence of said high frequency vibrations produced by said piezoelectric transducers resulting in fluid atomization.
2. The device as claimed in claim 1 further consisting of a charcoal filter configured to filter said fluid.
3. The device as claimed in claim 1 further consisting of a potentiometer configured to supply voltage to said piezoelectric transducer.
4. The device as claimed in claim 1 further consisting of an ultraviolet lamp configured to purify said fluid.
5. The device as claimed in claim 1 further consisting of a receiver configured to detect electromechanical waves emitted by said transducer and thus detect blockage in said charcoal filter.
6. The device as claimed in claim 1 configured to be used in aircraft, trains, ships, domestic households, heavy industries and vegetable and fruit industry.
7. The device as claimed in claim 1 may be used in any water outlets including faucets, taps, etc.
8. The device as claimed in claim 1 may be used in showers by clubbing more than one said fluid atomizers.
9. A method for atomization of fluid, said method comprising:allowing said fluid inflow to a fluid atomization device via fluid inlet chamber;restricting the flow of said fluid, from said fluid inlet chamber using a flow restrictor;producing high frequency vibrations in presence of said fluid using at least one piezoelectric transducer; andgenerating ultrasonic waves by the influence of said high frequency vibrations produced by said piezoelectric transducers due to presence of said deviceâ s base consisting of at least one orifice resulting in atomization of said fluid.
10. The method as claimed in claim 9 further consisting of installing of a charcoal filter configured to filter said fluid.
11. The method as claimed in claim 9, further consisting of installing of an ultraviolet lamp configured to purify said fluid.
12. The method as claimed in claim 9 further consisting of a receiver configured to detect electromechanical waves emitted by said transducer and thus detect blockage in said charcoal filter.
13. The method as claimed in claim 9, further consisting of installing of a potentiometer configured to supply voltage to said piezoelectric transducer.
14. The method as claimed in claim 9, further comprising clubbing more than one said fluid atomizers for showers.
