This invention provides an aerosolized inhaler which enables the drug powder to aerosolize within the inhaler by breathing in the air, comprising the main body (11) and the mouthpiece connector (12) connected thereupon, wherein the inhaler the main body (11) has drug holding opening (1), which connects with the vortex passage, and the vortex passage connects with the mouthpiece (9) on the mouthpiece connector (12). It has many obvious advantages as increasing the inhalation rate, pushing more drug granule to reach to the lower respiratory tract and even into the alveolus; and meanwhile, keeping the drug from being blown out of the inhaler when the users breathes out, preventing from cross inflection and minimizing the side effect of the drug to the whole body, and obviously lightening the burden on the users.

1. A dry powder aerosolized inhaler comprising: a main body (11); anda mouthpiece connector (12) connecting to the main body,wherein a funnel-shaped drug holding opening (1) in the main body (11) is connected to an air inlet (4) of the main body configured to provide unidirectional air flow towards the drug holding opening and to resist air flow out through the air inlet, and the drug holding opening is further connected to and decreases in diameter towards a vortex passage on a side opposite to the connection to the air inlet, andwherein the vortex passage has only one air inlet channel (6) having a first inside diameter, a vortex chamber (7) having an inside diameter greater than the first inside diameter, and one air outlet channel (8) having a minimum inside diameter that is not greater than the first inside diameter of the air inlet channel, wherein the air outlet channel is further connected to a mouthpiece (9) on the mouthpiece connector (12). 2. The dry powder aerosolized inhaler of claim 1, wherein above the drug holding opening (1), the main body (11) comprises a cover slab (2). 3. The dry powder aerosolized inhaler of claim 2, wherein the cover slab (2) has openings. 4. The dry powder aerosolized inhaler of claim 2, wherein the air inlet (4) is connected with the funnel-shaped drug holding opening (1) through an air inlet channel (5). 5. The dry powder aerosolized inhaler of claim 4, wherein the main body (11) comprises a single direction valve plate (3) at the air inlet (4), and the air inlet channel (5) connecting the air inlet (4) with the funnel-shaped drug holding opening (1) comprises several small gaps of about 1 mm width to filtrate foreign matter in the air. 6. The dry powder aerosolized inhaler of claim 1, comprising more than one said vortex passage, connected in series, or in parallel, or partly in series and partly in parallel, wherein each vortex passage has only one air inlet channel and one air outlet channel. 7. The dry powder aerosolized inhaler of claim 6, wherein the air inlet channel (6) has one end that connects with the vortex chamber (7) and another end that connects with the drug holding opening (1); the vortex chamber (7) directly connects with the air outlet channel (8) or with a small inside diameter air inlet channel of a neighbor vortex passage; and following this rule, until the small inside diameter air outlet channel in a last one of the vortex passages connects with the mouthpiece (9). 8. The dry powder aerosolized inhaler of claim 7, wherein a joint between the vortex chamber (7) and the air inlet channel (6) is a structure of gradual change or of abrupt change. 9. The dry powder aerosolized inhaler of claim 1, wherein the mouthpiece connector (12) comprises an external casing (10). 10. The dry powder aerosolized inhaler of claim 9, comprising a small protuberance at a bottom side of the external casing (10), which helps fix the external casing (10) when interlocking with a small whorl on the main body (11).
