ABSTRACT:
A self-contained disposable unit for converting a liquid to aerosol or for humidifying a gas includes gas inlet means and an enclosed container having a liquid supply reservoir and an outlet for the aerosol or for the humidified gas. A nozzle assembly for producing aerosol extends into the container above the liquid supply reservoir and a dual purpose conduit in communication with the liquid supply reservoir either carries liquid from the reservoir to the nozzle assembly during nebulization or passes gas into the liquid in the reservoir during humidification. The unit also includes valve means for selectively diverting gas from the gas inlet means to the nozzle assembly for nebulization or through the dual purpose conduit into the liquid in the liquid supply reservoir for humidification.
