A wax warmer includes a reservoir for receiving a wax melt, a housing defining an interior volume and configured to receive the reservoir, and a hermetically sealed heater engine positioned within the interior volume and in thermal contact with the reservoir.

Embodiments of the invention relate generally to disinfection and, more particularly, to methods, devices, and systems for disinfection of a space. In one embodiment, the invention provides a disinfecting system comprising: a disinfecting composition; and a device for producing a fog of the disinfecting composition, the fog comprising liquid droplets having diameters between about 0.5 micron and about 20 microns. In some embodiments, the invention includes a dehumidifying device for removing the fog of the disinfecting composition from the space.

A diffuser includes an adjustable heater having a temperature control knob providing indicia coordinated with like indicia on packets of vaporizable materials of different tendencies to vaporize. By manipulating the temperature control knob to the indicia corresponding to the indicia on the packet, a suitable quantity of energy is delivered to the diffuser resulting in suitable vaporization. One indicia is color coded packets and similarly color coded markings adjacent the temperature control knob.

The present invention relates to automatic odor treatment spray dispensers.

There is provided a novel aroma generator.

Provided is an aroma generator including: a cartridge holding unit equipped with a cartridge that holds a fragrance; and a control unit that automatically selects a type of the fragrance in the cartridge according to sensing information obtained from the outside. The sensing information may be external environment information and/or biological information. Furthermore, the aroma generator may further include an air blower that blows the fragrance in the cartridge, and the control unit may automatically change blowing intensity of the air blower according to the sensing information.

Methods and apparatus for vaporizing liquid from a liquid source into the surrounding environment, are disclosed, where the apparatus comprises at least one manifold comprising at least one liquid port formed by a through-hole and at least one ridge structure, wherein the liquid port is in fluid communication with the liquid source and the one ridge structure At least one vaporization port is included in a planar structure connecting a first side of the structure to a second side, in fluid communication with the at least one ridge structure and the surrounding environment, wherein fluid flow through the liquid and vaporization ports is substantially perpendicular to the plane of the structure, and the ridge structures are substantially parallel to the plane of the structure. At least one heating element is present that is in thermal communication to the at least one vaporization port and at least one ridge structure.

An inflatable and scented vase and flower bouquet includes a housing having an outer surface configured in the form of a vase having flowers extending upwardly from a top of the vase, the housing having a singular construction and defining a single interior space that may be inflated to have the appearance of an authentic vase and flower bouquet. The inflatable bouquet may include a scent dispenser operative to dispense a fragrance associated with a flower depicted by the flower portion of the housing. A weight may be situated in the interior space to prevent the housing from floating away if inflated with helium.

A mist supply device configured to decontaminate a target with a proper amount of decontamination agent supplied to the target by converting such agent into a fine mist, and reducing the duration of operations such as aeration to increase decontamination efficiency. The device includes a mist generation means, a mist microparticulating means, and a supply port. The mist generation means converts the decontamination agent into a primary mist and supplies it to the mist microparticulating means, which includes at least one vibration board that is subjected to ultrasonic vibration to generate sound flows from board surfaces by an ultrasound in the vertical direction. The supplied primary mist is subjected to ultrasonic vibration by the sound flows to reduce the primary mist into a secondary mist of smaller size. The generated secondary mist is supplied to the inside of the room through the supply port.

Vaporizer of decontaminating agents, preferably oxygen peroxide, comprising a vaporization chamber (1) with hot walls (5), a first inlet (2) in said chamber (1) of a flow of a vector fluid, preferably air, directed towards the hot wall (5), a second inlet (3) in said chamber (1) of a pressurized flow of a liquid decontaminating agent, interfering in a meeting point (P) with said flow of vector fluid to be dragged and vaporized in contact with the hot wall (5), an outlet (4) from the chamber (1) of a flow of vaporized decontaminating agent conveyed by said vector fluid, comprising injection means (6) associated with said second inlet branch (3) for injecting an atomized flow of micro-drops of decontaminating agent.

A ventilator system includes a gas flow chamber configured to receive ventilation gas circulating in a ventilation gas pathway of the ventilator and at least one UVC lamp. The UVC lamp is configured to radiate UVC spectrum light into the gas flow chamber to inactivate pathogens in the ventilation gas. A flow sensor is configured to measure a gas flow rate of the ventilation gas and a controller is configured to receive the gas flow rate, determine an intensity based on the gas flow rate, and control power to the UVC lamp based on the intensity.
