Aerosol Delivery Device And Method Of Operating The Aerosol Delivery Device

Patent No. EP3082918 (titled "Aerosol Delivery Device And Method Of Operating The Aerosol Delivery Device") was filed by Pari Pharma on Dec 15, 2014. The application was issued on May 13, 2020.

Patent Summary

An aerosol delivery device with a membrane-based aerosol generator and a vibration mechanism that detects the presence of fluid in the reservoir by analyzing the electrical characteristics of the vibration mechanism at different frequencies. The device operates the vibration mechanism at multiple frequencies, measures the resulting electrical parameters, and determines the presence of fluid based on the slope and length of the resulting curves. This approach enables reliable detection of fluid presence in the reservoir, even in the absence of liquid flow, and can be used to prevent membrane damage and optimize aerosol treatment efficiency.
