UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE CHARLES A. TATUM, 0F MIDDLETOWN, NEW JERSEY, ASSIGNOR TO WHITALL, TATUM COMPANY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., A CORPORATION OF NEW JERSEY.
ATOMIZER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed July 24, 1913.
Patented June 9, 1914.
Serial No. 780,867.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES A. TA'rUM, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Middletown, county of Monmouth, and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Atomizers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to atomizers and more particularly to tips for the spray tubes thereof and has for its object to provide a tip which is particularly adapted for post nasal work or in other words for readily throwing a spray into the nasal cavities from the throat.
My improvement will be fully described hereinafter and further objects thereof will be set forth while the features of novelty will be pointed out in the appended claim.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings which illustrate an example of my invention and in which- Figure 1 is an elevation of an atomizer with my improvement attached thereto; and Fig. 2 is an enlarged longitudinal sectional View of the tip shown in Fig. 1.
In the drawings 5 represents the usual receptacle for containing the medicinal fluid or the like with which the usual air tube 6 and bulb 7 are connected in any customary manner, the air tube having the usual fluid conducting tube 8 extending therethrough, the combined tubes 6 and 8 together forming a spraying tube in the well known way. In the illustration the tube 6 has its free end screw-threaded at 6 to detachably receive the tip or nozzle. In the form of my improvement, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, this tip comprises an internally screw-threaded sleeve 9 adapted to be screwed upon the portion 6 when the atomizer is completely assembled for use, an annular shoulder 10 on said tube 6 acting as a stop for said sleeve. A nozzle 11 extends into said sleeve and has a through channel 12 formed therein, the inner end of said channel being in substantial alinement with the exit end of the tube 8 and also communicating with the air tube 6 as is clearly shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings. In the preferred form the said nozzle is provided with an annular recess 14: into which an inwardly extending annular flange 15 formed on the end of the sleeve 9 extends. With this construction the nozzle 11 is rotatable relatively to the sleeve about the axis thereof so that the position of the nozzle may be adjusted to throw the spray in the desired direction.
As shown in Fig. 2, the nozzle 11 terminates in an enlarged sphere or ball 13 into which the channel 12 extends, the one end thereof being closed. A passage 12 in said ball 13 communicates with this channel 12 and extends backward at substantially an angle of 45 whereby the spray is also thrown upwardly and back in this form of my tip.
In the described and illustrated form of my improved tip the atomizer may be used with great advantage for post nasal work as the direction of the spraying channel is such as to make it possible to easily and completely reach all parts of the post nasal cavities by way of the throat, without inconvenience to the user or danger of injuring the parts of the person. In addition to this by rotatably mounting the nozzle in the sleeve the direction of the backward spray may be readily adjusted in a circle, it being understood that the engagement between the flange 15 and recess 14 is such that the frictional contact will maintain the nozzle in the adjusted position against accidental displacement. This construction also makes it possible to adjust the said nozzle independently of the screw-threaded connection between the sleeve 9 and portion 6 of the tube 6, or in other words if it should be found, when the said sleeve is fully screwed home on the tube 6, that the nozzle does not project in the desired direction, the same may be readily adjusted into the intended position. The atomizing of the fluid or medicament is of course brought about in the usual manner by manipulating the bulb 7. It is to be understood, while the illustrated and described tips are particularly adapted for post nasal work, that they may be found useful in many other connections.
Various changes in the specific forms shown and described may be made within the scope of the claim without departing from the spirit of my invention.
I claim:
A spraying tip for atomizers comprising an internally screw-threaded sleeve, a nozzle having a cylindrical portion extending axially into said sleeve and rotatable therein, and a solid spherical enlargement at the free end of said cylindrical portion, a channel extending through said cylindrical por- In testimony whereof I have hereunto set tion and into said spherical enlargement and my hand in the presence of tWo subscribing closed at its one end and an inclined outlet Witnesses.
