PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a down-sized aroma generator which can be installed at the center of a space in which an aroma is to be diffused, allowing the aroma to be uniformly diffused into the entire space with a reduced amount of aromatic oil to be diffused.SOLUTION: The aroma generator includes: an aroma component accommodating chamber 13 having a storage region 10a for accommodating a liquid aroma component, a diffusion region 10b in which the atomized aromatic component is retained, and an emission part as opening through which the atomized aromatic component retained in the diffusion region 10b is emitted an aromatic component suction tube 12 disposed in the aroma component accommodating chamber 13, the aromatic component suction tube 12 having a suction port at the bottom of the storage region 10a, and an injection port in the diffusion region 10b and a gas blowing tube 11 having a gas blowing port through which gas is blown out toward the injection port of the aromatic component suction tube 12. The aromatic component suction tube 12 has a length of 50 mm or more. The injection port is disposed at a position 51 mm or more away from the bottom face of the storage region.COPYRIGHT: (C)2015,JPO&INPIT【課題】小型化することにより、香を拡散させる空間の中心にも設置できるようにし、芳香油の拡散量を減じながらも、当該空間の全体に香りの斑を生じさせることなく拡散できるようにした香発生装置を提供する。【解決手段】液状の芳香成分を収容する貯留領域10aと、霧化した芳香成分が滞留する拡散領域10bと、拡散領域10bに滞留する霧状の芳香成分を放出する開口として形成された放出部とを備えた芳香成分収容チャンバー13と、芳香成分収容チャンバー13内に存在し、前記貯留領域10aの底側に吸込口を有すると共に、前記拡散領域10bに噴射口を有する芳香成分吸引管12と、当該芳香成分吸引管12の噴射口に向かって気体を吹き出す気体吹き出し口を備えた気体吹き出し管11とを備えており、前記芳香成分吸引管12の長さが50mm以上であって、前記噴射口は前記貯留領域の底面から51mm以上離れて存在する。【選択図】図3
