A battery operated atomizer device comprising, in a housing (), a liquid reservoir () from which a capillary type liquid delivery system () extends to contact a piezoelectric actuator an atomization plate assembly (), the assembly () being supported by means of wire-like elements () in cantilever fashion over the liquid delivery system, the liquid delivery system comprising an outer tubular member () and a solid rod () which have facing surfaces configured to define between them, longitudinal capillary liquid passages.

Low leakage liquid atomization device

A plug and wickholder is configured to be reliably sealed to the neck of a bottle which contains a liquid to be atomized and to a cap which seals the bottle during storage. The plug and wickholder includes a first generally tubular wall which contains a wick and which fits tightly into a cap sealing wall, and it further includes a generally cylindrical sealing wall which fits tightly into a bottle neck. A second generally vertical tubular wall is interposed between the first generally tubular wall and the generally cylindrical sealing wall.
