  • the mesh nozzle is made of polysulfone resin.
  • the inlet surface side of the mesh nozzle was brought into contact with the atomizing surface of the vibrating body, and the vibrating body was vibrated by a horn vibrator. In addition, water is applied to the area where the vibrating body and the mesh nozzle are in contact. It was made to atomize and the amount of spraying was measured.

  • the effect of improving the rigidity of the mesh nozzle is greater than the effect of increasing the discharge resistance by increasing the thickness.
  • the shape of the through hole is a taper shape that is narrower on the outlet surface side, preferably a cylindrical shape on the inlet surface side. The fact that the side has a conical shape can be expected to increase the spray amount.
  • Example 5 of the present invention will be described below. A mesh nozzle with a grid-like reinforcement structure and a mesh nozzle without it were made, and an experiment was conducted to compare the spray amount.
  • mesh nozzle (a) having a reinforcing member has ribs surrounding the edge of the entrance surface and grid-like ribs. Both mesh nozzles have a square shape with a side of 4.3 mm square, and the thickness of the mesh part is 50 m.
  • the rib has a width of 100 ⁇ m and a thickness of 200 ⁇ m.
  • the inlet surface side of the mesh nozzle was brought into contact with the atomizing surface of the vibrating body, and the vibrating body was vibrated by a horn vibrator. Also, water was supplied to the area where the vibrating body and the mesh nozzle were in contact to atomize, and the spray amount was measured.
  • the spray amount of the mesh nozzle having the reinforcing structure was three times the spray amount of the mesh nozzle without the reinforcing structure.
  • the rigidity of the mesh nozzle with the reinforcing structure is 10 times that of the mesh nozzle without the reinforcing structure. Therefore, it can be considered that the spray amount increased due to the improvement in rigidity by the reinforcing structure.
  • the mesh nozzle of the present invention is not limited to this, for example, metal
  • the product may be made of ceramic.
  • a mesh nozzle and a sprayer for a sprayer according to the present invention are used for atomizing a chemical solution in a sprayer for atomizing and ejecting a chemical solution, and have a plurality of through holes, and the mesh nozzle. It can be applied particularly advantageously to sprayers with

Abstract

Buse à grille (13) pour vaporisateur, comprenant plusieurs orifices de passage (80), d'une forme optimisée pour accroître l'efficacité d'un traitement médical en augmentant la quantité de produit chimique liquide atomisée par le vaporisateur. La buse à grille est utilisée pour atomiser le produit chimique liquide. Les orifices de passage (80) de la buse à grille (13) du vaporisateur ont une forme biseautée convergeant vers sa face de sortie (13A), dont l'angle conique (θ1) est de 40° ou plus.
