An apparatus and a method for ultrasonically producing a spray of liquid. The apparatus (100) includes a die housing (102) which defines a chamber (104) adapted to receive a pressurized liquid and a means for applying ultrasonic energy (116) to a portion of the pressurized liquid. The die housing (102) further includes an inlet (110) adapted to supply the chamber with the pressurized liquid, and an exit orifice (112) defined by the walls of a die tip (136). The exit orifice (112) is adapted to receive the pressurized liquid from the chamber (104) and pass the liquid out of the die housing (102) to produce a spray of liquid. When the means for applying ultrasonic energy (116) is excited, it applies ultrasonic energy to the pressurized liquid without applying ultrasonic energy to the die tip (136). The method involves supplying a pressurized liquid to the foregoing apparatus (100), applying ultrasonic energy to the pressurized liquid but not the die tip (136) while the exit orifice (112) receives pressurized liquid from the chamber (104), and passing the pressurized liquid out of the exit orifice (112) in the die tip (136) to produce a spray of liquid.

Dispositif et procédé de production d'un jet de liquide par ultrasons. Ce dispositif (100) comprend une enveloppe de tuyère (102) qui définit une chambre (104) conçue pour recevoir un liquide sous pression, et un moyen permettant d'appliquer une énergie ultrasonore (116) à une partie de ce liquide. L'enveloppe de tuyère (102) comprend en outre un orifice d'entrée (110) conçu pour alimenter la chambre en un liquide sous pression, ainsi qu'un orifice de sortie (112) défini par les parois d'un embout de tuyère (136). L'orifice de sortie (112) est conçu pour recevoir le liquide sous pression de la chambre (104) et pour lui permettre de sortir de l'enveloppe de tuyère (102). Lorsque le moyen d'application de l'énergie ultrasonore (116) est excité, il applique de l'énergie ultrasonore au liquide sous pression sans en appliquer à l'embout de tuyère (136). Le procédé consiste à alimenter le dispositif précité (100) en liquide sous pression, à appliquer de l'énergie ultrasonore audit liquide, mais pas à l'embout de tuyère (136), tandis que l'orifice de sortie (112) reçoit du liquide sous pression de la chambre (104), et enfin à faire passer le liquide sous pression hors de l'orifice de sortie (112) de l'embout de tuyère (136) pour produire un jet de liquide.
