An automatic dispensing device for volatile fluid operable to apply one or more agent to a local environment for more than 14 days. Preferred devices dispense a first agent for air freshening, and may optionally dispense a second agent, such as a drain cleaner. A workable drain cleaner is structured to permit a slow release of drain cleaning agent. A dispensing device may nonexclusively operate by evaporation of volatile fluid from a carrier material that is infused with the volatile fluid; gravity-induced drip from a bulk supply of volatile fluid through a small orifice onto an emanator; osmotic transfer of volatile fluid from a bulk supply; gas-pump drive of volatile fluid at controlled pressure; or diffusion of volatile fluid through a wall of a container of bulk volatile fluid; and combinations thereof.

The present invention relates to a solid pressed air freshener and odor neutralizer composition which can include greater than 10% fragrance. The air freshener comprises a fragrance; preferably the fragrance is impregnated within a water soluble substrate made from a foamed vegetable starch, a surfactant and a solidifier. The solid formulations break down easily in the presence of water and may be sprayed, within the area to be freshened.

A honing machine features a stand (1) with at least two feet (3), wherein the stand (1) has an area with two substantially parallel surfaces, and wherein at least one honing spindle (11), another machining spindle (11) or another functional unit is arranged on the two substantially parallel surfaces of the stand (1).

A controlled release device and method of use, the device comprising a reservoir wherein the reservoir is divided into one or more chambers; a first active material placed in a first chamber of the one or more chambers and at least one second active material placed in at least one other of the one or more chambers wherein the first active material comprises an active ingredient (AI), wherein the AI is one of an insecticide, a spatial repellent, a herbicide or a larvicide; wherein the at least one second active material comprises one or both of a matrix and an altering material; a permeable membrane covering the first chamber; partitions positioned between adjacent chambers of the one or more chambers for dividing the reservoir into chambers such that full or partial removal of one or more of the partitions results in mixing of the first active material and the at least one second active material to form a mixed active material; a cap positioned over the membrane for sealing the reservoir such that removal of the cap results in controlled release of the AI from the mixed active material through the membrane.

The invention relates to a solid toilet block having at least a first composition and a second composition obtained by a non-concentric coextrusion step, and to a method for producing such a toilet block and to a device having such a toilet block.

A rim-mounted toilet insert that creates a scented oil barrier to automatically trap odors between each flush. The apparatus and composition blocks toilet odors automatically, so users don't have to remember to apply it before you use the restroom.

A toilet rim block which consists of an outer cover and a core, and to a rim block cage including the toilet rim block. The outer cover includes a first composition and the core includes a second composition. Preferably, the first and the second compositions differ from each other by at least one of the following features: different active substances, different concentration but same active substance, and different viscosity. The outer cover partly encloses the core and the core protrudes on at least one face of the toilet rim block right to the surface as a pole and is exposed. The core is shaped such that the surface of the exposed area changes upon even wear of the surface of the toilet rim block, the surface of the exposed area of the core reducing upon even wear of the surface of the toilet rim block.
