Abstract
A mist generator may include a reservoir storing a solution, a plurality of ultrasonic vibrators, a mist delivery path, and a mist collector. The plurality of ultrasonic vibrators may be disposed under the reservoir and configured to apply ultrasonic vibration to the solution stored in the reservoir to generate mist of the solution in the reservoir. The mist delivery path may be configured to deliver the mist from an inside of the reservoir to an outside of the reservoir. The mist collector may be disposed above the solution in the reservoir, wherein an upper end of the mist collector may be connected to an upstream end of the mist delivery path, a lower end of the mist collector may include an opening, and a width of the mist collector may increase from the upper end toward the opening. The plurality of ultrasonic vibrators may be located directly under the opening.
