When electric power is supplied to the column, a resonance phenomenon occurs, and the columnar fluid 24 in the drive tube 17 vibrates violently as if it were integrated, as shown by the dotted line in the figure. When the columnar fluid 23 moves to the right, the fluid near the inlet of the drive tube 17 is driven to the right.
Next, when the columnar fluid 24 moves to the left, a negative pressure is generated in the vicinity of the inlet in the drive tube 17, and the stationary fluid near the discharge port 13 is affected by the negative pressure as shown by a curve 25 in the figure. It is sucked into the drive tube 17. Next, when the columnar fluid 24 moves rightward again, this sucked fluid is driven rightward. As a result, after several cycles, a flow as shown by the arrow in the drawing is formed, the cleaning gas is forcibly driven, and the same effect as in the first embodiment is obtained.
