Abstract
An atomizer is provided having an atomization chamber (1, 2; 1′) for receiving a liquid, at least one nebulizer (3, 4; 4′) for atomizing the liquid into drops of liquid, and an exit port (30) for discharging the vapor or mist of liquid thus generated from the atomization chamber (1, 2; 1′). At least one device for deflecting the vapor or mist of liquid (5; 5′) is provided, which is arranged in the area above the liquid surface.

- 14. An atomizer comprising an atomization chamber for receiving a liquid, at least one nebulizer for atomizing the liquid into a vapor, and an exit port for discharging the vapor thus generated from the atomization chamber, wherein the vapor ascending from the liquid is moved towards the exit port via a pressure device, wherein at least one device for deflecting the vapor is arranged in an area above a surface of the liquid, wherein an acceleration prism formed in an area of the exit port projects above the liquid level and is arranged such that a cross-sectional narrowing of the atomization chamber is formed, wherein the at least one device for deflecting the vapor comprises a turbulence shield arranged above the liquid surface in an interior of the atomization chamber, and wherein the turbulence shield has a horizontal wall section and an inclined wall section connected thereto and inclined towards the liquid surface.
