Provided herein is an ultrasonic-based aerosol generation device capable of ensuring immediate aerosol generation according to puffs and reducing cartridge replacement costs. The ultrasonic-based aerosol generation device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure may include a control main body which includes a vibration member configured to generate ultrasonic vibrations and a cartridge which is replaceable and coupled to the control main body. In this structure, since the vibration member, which is a relatively expensive component, is disposed at the control main body side, the cartridge replacement costs may be significantly reduced. Further, since a vibration transmission member configured to transmit the ultrasonic vibrations of the vibration member to a liquid aerosol-forming substrate is disposed in the cartridge, an aerosol may be smoothly generated.

An oxygen concentrator may have a compressor to feed a feed gas for sieve bed(s) via a first manifold, an accumulator to receive enriched air from the bed(s) via a second manifold. It may include an outer housing for the manifolds, the compressor, and the accumulator. The housing may include an access portal to a compartment therein, for removably receiving the bed(s) as a canister assembly. The first manifold may be adjacent to the compartment and have inlet coupling(s) for removably coupling respectively with inlet(s) of the canister assembly. The inlet coupling(s) may each have a first central axis. The second manifold may be adjacent to the compartment and have outlet coupling(s) for removably coupling respectively with outlet(s) of the canister assembly. The outlet coupling(s) may each having a second central axis. The first and second central axes may form any one of an obtuse, acute, or right angle.
