Fixing part 9 that joins the nozzle plate 3
is provided. At this time, as shown in FIG. 2, the vibration system of the nozzle plate 3 is excited by the radial vibration (arrow in the figure) of the electric vibrator 1, which is converted into flexural vibration (arrow in the figure). In order to efficiently excite the bending vibration of the nozzle plate 3, the inner diameter d 1 of the electric vibrator 1
The electric vibrator 1 is assembled so that the vibration node (indicated by △ in the figure) is close to the inner periphery of the electric vibrator 1 by keeping the composition ratio of the inner diameter d 2 of the fixed part 9 constant. The atomizing pump was constructed in this manner.

This configuration reduces the rigidity of the portion of the nozzle plate where the grooves are provided. Therefore, the bending vibration of the center portion of the nozzle plate causes vibration movement starting from the kerf portion having low rigidity. Therefore, the nodes of the vibration system are made constant, and as a result, the atomization characteristics can be stabilized.
