Fragrance dispenser with fragrance conservation features
Fragrance dispensers with features that are capable of reducing wastage of fragrance, or of conserving fragrance, are disclosed. Such a fragrance dispenser may have a configuration that collects fragrance that is expelled from the fragrance dispenser, but has not vaporized or atomized sufficiently to dissipate into the environment, as well as fragrance that condenses immediately after it has been expelled from the fragrance dispenser. A spill-resistant bottle that may be used with a fragrance dispenser has a shape that orients an opening of the bottle in a somewhat upward orientation to prevent fragrance from spilling out when the bottle is tipped over. Fragrance dispensers with configurations that generate vortices to deliver fragrance into the surrounding environment are also disclosed.
DEODORIZATION AND DEHUMIDIFICATION DEVICE
A deodorization and dehumidification device including an accommodation room in which an object is accommodated, a deodorizer including a deodorization route provided outside the accommodation room to deodorize air in the accommodation room and supply the deodorized air to the accommodation room, and a dehumidifier including a dehumidification route provided outside the accommodation room and separated from the deodorization route to dehumidify air in the accommodation room and supply the dehumidified air to the accommodation room.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR AUGMENTING AND/OR SIMULATING FLAVORS
Presented herein are systems, methods, and techniques related to delivery of simulated flavor sensations to a user while consuming (e.g., eating, drinking) food items. The perception of flavor is a multisensory experience as it involves not only taste, but other sensory experiences such as sight, sound, smell, and touch. Delivery of one or more sensory experiences to a user as the user is consuming a food item is able to augment how the user experiences the food item's flavor. For example, changing a smell or color a food item has affects how users perceive it when being consumed Changing perceptions through stimulating various senses can alter expectations significantly and in unexpected ways when delivering or combining stimuli. Accordingly in some embodiments, the present disclosure provides for technologies (e.g., device(s), systems and/or method(s)) for delivering simulated flavor sensations while consuming food items (e.g., solid food items, a beverage).
PERFUME COMPOSITIONS
A perfume composition having controlled release of phytoncides in an atmosphere in order to generate an air condition resembling the air environment of a forest is provided. The perfume composition includes a) at least about 0.6% by weight of at least one phytoncide; and b) a perfume mixture including (i) at least one solvent; and (ii) at least one fragrance ingredient. At least about 25% by weight of the at least one phytoncide is selected from the group consisting of pinene alpha, pinene beta and combinations thereof.
Aroma diffusion module and aroma diffusion container including the same
Disclosed are an aroma diffusion module and an aroma diffusion container including the same. The aroma diffusion container according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a container body; an opening and closing unit coupled to the upper end of the container body; and an aroma diffusion module mounted in the container body, in which the aroma diffusion module includes a porous module body; a first hollow formed at one side of the module body; and a second hollow formed inside the module body, a porous aroma diffusion medium is accommodated in the first hollow, and the second hollow allows external air to be introduced into the container body through a slit of a membrane member unit. According to the present invention, there is an advantage of providing various types of aroma diffusion kits which can be efficiently used to feel, distinguish, memorize, and express aromas of favorite beverages and food, such as wine, coffee, tea, beer, and whiskey in which the aroma is important, while maximizing the number of use times as well as being easy to use and enabling a long-term storage.
ROTATABLE DIFFUSER DEVICE
A diffuser that diffuses a liquid and projects atomized particles into air from a housing that is detachable from a rotatable base plate. The base of the diffuser is configured with a motor for rotating the base plate and with circuitry for providing power to components in the housing. Rotation of the base plate causes rotation of the housing vent during use. Control circuitry in the base can operably control properties of the diffuser components and the vapor being dispersed by the diffuser.
Air freshener promotional product
An air freshener promotional product comprising a hanging handbag air freshener being a miniature replica of a handbag having a height/ratio of from 2 to 3 inches, being a representation of a type of handbag has a promotional strap upon which graphics, can be displayed said miniature replica of a can be designed and embellished to resemble stylish handbags wherein handbag replica is hung from a rearview mirror of a car or a hang point and is used as an ornamental air freshener.
Combination salt lamp and oil diffuser
A combination salt lamp and aroma/essential oil diffuser includes: a housing with an outlet for mist exiting the housing and an open space, a water tank inside the housing for storing liquid having a passageway that connects to the mist outlet and can disperse nebulized mist outwardly, a nebulizing assembly within the water tank to nebulize the liquid in the water tank, a salt crystal mineral that sits in the open space of the housing, a heating assembly with a heating element adjacent the salt crystal, a fan assembly inside the housing, and a power assembly for the nebulizing assembly, the heating assembly, and the fan assembly.
SURFACE MODIFIED MICROCAPSULES
A method of preparing a microcapsule composition include the steps of: (a) providing a microcapsule formed of an encapsulating polymer having a primary or secondary amine group, (b) providing a deposition agent having a reactive group, and (c) forming a covalent bond between the primary or secondary amine group and the reactive group to graft the deposition agent to the encapsulating polymer. Also disclosed are consumer products containing these microcapsules.
Modular fan assembly with articulating nozzle
An air treatment system is disclosed that includes a modular configuration whereby a fan module, filter module, and humidifier module may couple together to provide a plurality of air treatment solutions. In more detail, the modules can stack end-to-end in a vertical configuration. The modules may electrically couple to each other via a common electrical bus and enable a controller disposed in the fan module (or other module) to control fan flow rates, direction, and humidity. The fan module can include an articulating nozzle capable of directing airflow in virtually any direction and angle about an environment. The fan module can further include an inlet arrangement that can selectively restrict external air from entering the fan module housing when the fan module is fluidly coupled to the filter module. Thus, the fan module may generate air flow from exclusively filtered air to minimize or otherwise reduce bacterial/mold growth within the fan module housing.
