A plug is attachable to a wall of a torch that is configured to burn a fuel. The plug adds one or more features to the torch, such as a fuel level sensor, a temperature sensor, a tilt sensor, an automatic wick ignitor and/or extinguisher, a wick clamp, a wick advancing mechanism, and/or a global positioning system. The plug includes an electronic controller, and wireless electronics configured to provide remote control and/or monitoring of the added features. Power for the plug can be provided by a battery and/or a solar panel. The controller can establish a unique torch identity, thereby enabling a remote computing device to monitor and/or control features of a plurality of torches that each have a plug of the present disclosure attached thereto. The plug can be removably or permanently attached to the torch.

A device for dispersing in the air in the vapor state and a substance that is in the liquid state at ambient temperature, and is contained in a storage container, has a ventilation system with a duct that opens out into the open air and is configured to permit the passage of a flow of air into the duct; at least one dispensing unit is designed to be supplied with a liquid substance by the storage container, the dispensing unit having micro-ducts forming an outlet is provided in the duct in order to constitute an area of evaporation of the substance therein, and a heating unit is provided on or in the dispensing unit, such as to control a flow of the substance through the dispensing unit.

A system for consistently emitting a volatile material, the system including a dispenser having at least one aperture, a substrate adapted to fit within the dispenser, and a volatile material. The substrate includes a first woven layer having a first pore size, a second woven layer having a second pore size, and a third, non-woven layer that extends between the first woven layer and the second woven layer. Further, the system has a steady state weight loss of the volatile material over a time greater than 30 days.

Provided is an annular sustained release preparation to be used by opening a center portion thereof, the preparation having a strength enough to avoid cleaving at a welded end portion. More specifically, provided is an annular sustained release preparation having at least two polymer tubes having both ends sealed and integrated by pressure-welding or at least one polymer tube and at least one polymer rod having both ends sealed and integrated by pressure-welding; and a sex pheromone liquid contained by at least one of the tubes or the tube; wherein an annular space can be formed by pulling the tubes or the tube and the rod apart from each other at a center portion therebetween, the central portion not having been pressure-welded; and an angle formed between a line connecting respective centers of diameters of the tubes welded to each other or the tube and the rod welded to each other and the pressure application direction is from 0 to 45°.

A system includes a first power cord and at least one heated repellant dispersal unit electrically connected to the first power cord that increases an evaporation rate of a repellant within the heated repellant dispersal unit.

A beehive pest trap includes a first surface, second surface, and side beams. The side beams are coupled to and support the second surface. The side beams are coupled to and positioned on the first surface. The second surface is coupled to and positioned on the side beams. The first surface, second surface, and side beams form a gate entrance. The second surface is positioned parallel to the first surface. The second surface is wider than the first surface. The gate entrance is positioned proximate to an insect trap. The second surface is L-shaped. The trap also includes a screen and a trap drawer. The first surface comprises a lateral side. The lateral side and the side beam form a cavity. The trap door is slidably positioned in the cavity. The insect trap includes the trap drawer. The second surface includes a pest door slidably coupled thereto.

The invention relates to an evaporation device for evaporating volatile substances, comprising a container (1) housing a liquid (8) containing the volatile substances, an outlet (2) through which the volatile substances exit and a hole (9) for equalizing the pressure between the inside and the outside of the container, and characterized in that it also comprises a membrane (6) placed between the container (1) and the hole (9), said membrane (6) being leak-tight with respect to said liquid (8) and porous with respect to the gases. This membrane prevents the liquid from accidentally spilling and furthermore solves the issue of balancing pressures inside the container, keeping the rate of evaporation constant until running out of the volatile substances.

The present invention relates to a support for volatile substance-diffusing wicks which comprises a housing (1) for placing a volatile substance-diffusing wick, and is characterized in that said housing (1) is formed by a plurality of elastic extensions (2) defining a funnel shape.

The present invention allows providing a support for volatile substance-diffusing wicks which prevents the wick from being removed for reuse.

The present invention relates to a volatile substance diffuser, where said diffuser comprises a reservoir (10) containing the volatile substances, characterized in that it is formed from a sheet (11) provided with a plurality of fold lines, said sheet (11) comprising a first face (1) on which said reservoir (10) is fixed; a second face (2) which supports the diffuser upright in a use position together with said first face (1); and a third face (3) provided with a hole (12) for hanging the diffuser.

The present invention allows providing a volatile substance diffuser which prevents using a container housing said diffuser.
