FIELD: medical engineering. SUBSTANCE: inhalator has a housing with the following components inside: air feeding means (in the form of bellows), ionization chamber with electrodes, spraying nozzle, separator, tip, medicine container and energy source. The energy source is made like a high-voltage generator comprising piezoelectric modules and mechanically connected to the air feeding means. The medicine container is made in the form of a hygroscopic toroid and a small cylindrical turbine filled with hygroscopic material too. Electrodes are needle-like; the nozzle is made for translational motion about the housing. EFFECT: higher efficiency, simpler design. 5 dwg
