Device for generating droplets from a liquid, comprising means for sterilizing this liquid

摘要

This device for generating droplets from a liquid comprises a hollow body (1) delimiting a generation enclosure, means (3,40) for generating droplets from a jet of liquid flowing through the inside said enclosure, these generating means being provided with at least one liquid inlet orifice (31) and at least one liquid outlet orifice (30), means for diffusing droplets of a mist , formed from said jet, as well as means for sterilizing said liquid. According to the invention, the sterilization means (6) comprise means for sterilization by ultraviolet radiation, preferably by ultraviolet type C radiation. Consequently, the device of the invention ensures reliable sterilization of the liquid, while having a structure relatively simple and low energy cost. Figure 6.
