Air scenting appliance for a vehicle
An air scenting system for a vehicle is provided which includes an appliance and a replaceable cartridge installable therein. The replaceable cartridge contains a liquid compound to be aerosolized and has a cartridge outlet through which the aerosolized compound is discharged during operation. A pump is provided to supply air to the replaceable cartridge to generate the aerosolized compound from the liquid compound contained in the replaceable cartridge, and a controller is provided for controlling the pump to supply the air to the replaceable cartridge to generate and discharge the aerosolized compound from the appliance. The appliance is particularly adapted for dispensing scent into the interior space of a vehicle, and includes a form factor particularly well suited for positioning the appliance in a cup holder. Additionally, the appliance is designed for use in vehicles when a driver is present and readily adjustable by the driver to provide a uniform scent experience.
ARTICLES FORMED OF PULP BASE MATERIALS WITH MODULATED SCENT RELEASE
Described are articles formed of a pulp base material comprising fibers, wherein pores are formed between the fibers. A volatile composition with at least one top note component and at least one base note component at least partially fills the pores of the pulp base material. A release rate of the at least one top note component is modulated by the pulp base material, and a release rate of the at least one base note component is enhanced by the pulp base material.
Device for creating and distributing vaporized scent
A scent vaporizing and distribution device uses an electric heating element to rapidly vaporize a liquid scent material. An airflow generator is used to create a distribution airflow that distributes the vapor from the device. The airflow generator can be an electric-powered fan or a manually-powered pump or squeezable bladder. The liquid scent material can include a glycol or a water-glycol mixture. A scent material such as liquid or powdered deer urine or a pleasant scent that can be used as a room or automobile or room freshener is mixed with the liquid. The vapor generator can be removable and replaceable such that different scents can be used with a single airflow generator or an empty generator can be replaced.

Switchable gas and liquid release and delivery devices, systems, and methods
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.
LED and AUDIO FRAGRANT OIL DIFFUSER
A warmer including base, top cover, warming devices for scented oil. Device includes fan, speaker, heating rod, LED bulb, wi-fi capabilities, control device remotely. The warmer is in a heat conductive relationship with the cover so that scented oil in the open channel is warmed by the warming device. Warmer's lighting system, including: a substrate; first set of light emitting elements and second set of light emitting elements configured to emit visible light having fixed first and second color parameter; diffuser cooperatively enclosing first and second sets of light emitting elements with substrate; communication module including antenna; processor connected to communication module, first set of light emitting elements, and second set of light emitting elements, processor configured to independently control relative intensities of first and second set of light elements to cooperatively emit light having target color parameter value, wherein target color parameter value is received from communication module.
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.
VOLATILE COMPOSITION DISPENSER
A method of manufacturing a volatile composition dispenser is disclosed. A container is positioned on a pallet, wherein the container has a bottom wall and side walls extending circumferentially around the bottom wall to define a reservoir and wherein the side walls have a circumferential inner edge defining a reservoir opening. The pallet is moved to a filling station in fluid communication with a tank containing a perfume composition. The perfume composition is dispensed into the exposed reservoir. A vapor impermeable substrate is attached to the planar surface of the container containing the dispensed perfume composition.
PERFUME HOLDING MEMBER AND FRAGRANCE PROVIDING DEVICE
A perfume holding member 101 includes: a perfume holder 208 that holds perfume; a holding space 209 where the perfume holder is disposed; a first opening 202 and a second opening 211 that open the holding space to the outside; movable portions 204 and 210 that move so as to open and close the first opening and the second opening; and a tolerance absorbing portion 207 that absorbs a tolerance between the first opening/closing position of the first opening of the movable portion and the second opening/closing position of the second opening of the movable portion. The holding space has an airflow passage including the first opening and the second opening, and the movable portions close the first opening and the second opening in a steady state and open the first opening and the second opening when the holding space is opened.
System for distributing volatile substance with base unit and self-sealing removable capsule
A capsule of a volatile substance distribution system is configured for use with a base unit having a fan and an air outlet configured to direct air driven by the fan away from the base unit. The capsule includes a housing that extends along a longitudinal axis between a first end and a second end. The first end defines an inlet port and the second end defines an outlet port. The housing houses a volatile substance member. The capsule further includes an outlet seal member that seals and unseals the outlet port. The housing, when engaged with the base unit and with the outlet seal member in the unsealed position, is configured to receive the air from the air outlet that flows into the inlet port, past the volatile substance member, and out of the outlet port.
