Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for implementing switchable dispensing and/or delivery of scented substances. In one aspect, a device includes a cartridge structured to include one or more chambers containing one or more scented substances contained in a corresponding chamber, a housing structured to include a compartment to hold the cartridge, an opening to allow the scented substances to dispense to an outer environment from the device, and one or more transporting channels formed between the compartment and the opening, in which each of the one or more transporting channels is configured to accelerate a scented substance from the corresponding chamber to the opening, and an actuator switch arranged in a corresponding transporting channel and operable to move between an open position and a closed position based on an applied signal to selectively allow passage of the scented substance from the corresponding transporting path.

Dry diffuser apparatus and method

A dry diffuser is disclosed which avoids safety and transport issues typical of liquid diffusers, candles and wax melts and provides systematic controlled diffusion of fragrance (or other active material) over relatively long periods with a programmable user interface.

FILTER UNIT FOR A COMPRESSOR
20230106998 · 2023-04-06 · ·

The present invention relates to a filter unit (10) for a compressor, comprising a housing (12) with an inlet (14) and an outlet (28) for gas to be compressed, a particle pre-filter (16) arranged downstream of the inlet (14) in the flow direction of the gas to be compressed, an ultraviolet irradiation unit (22) which is configured to emit ultraviolet light and is arranged downstream of the particle pre-filter (16) in the flow direction of the gas to be compressed, and a ballast (40) which is configured and arranged to control the ultraviolet irradiation unit (22). The filter unit (10) is designed in such a way that the gas to be compressed which is fed in at the inlet (14) first passes through the particle pre-filter (16), is then irradiated by the ultraviolet irradiation unit (22) and can finally be fed to the compressor through the outlet (28). The invention also relates to a compressor comprising such a filter unit (10) and to a method for compressing breathing air using such a compressor.
