MIST GENERATOR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a mist generator capable of conveying a favorable amount of aqueous solution to an ultrasonic transducer without a complicated device structure or air pressure control. SOLUTION: The mist generator includes a water storage tank for storing liquid therein and an atomizing part for atomizing the liquid. Also, the mist generator includes a first convey path forming a flowing path for conveying the liquid stored in the water storage tank to the atomizing part. The mist generator further includes a pressurizing part for urging the liquid to convey the liquid to the atomizing part through the first convey path by pressurizing the liquid stored in the water storage tank, a second convey path forming a flowing path for discharging the liquid from the atomizing part, a drain tank for storing the liquid discharged from one end of the second convey path, and an opening and closing part that is an openable and closable member for forming a flowing path of the liquid between the water storage tank and the drain tank in an open state.
