Includes an electromechanical device (1), which acts like an electronic catalog for the olfactory testing of different fragrances or aromas, contained in an absorbent cylindrical element (2) inserted into individual cartridges (3), which are interchangeable and encased in a carousel (4), supported on central bearings (5) and radially moved by means of an electric motor (6) with reducer (7) and gearing (8) that acts in a circular rack (9). Upon receiving a command, via application, the carousel (4) turns positioning the cartridge (3), corresponding to the fragrance or aroma chosen, in front of the connector nozzle (10), thanks to a positioning sensor (S), which counts the turns of the shaft of the electric motor (6). Next, a mechanical actuator (11) formed by an electric motor (12), gearing (13) that acts in a straight rack (14), which in turn drives a drawing cane (15), which pushes, and then retracts the cartridge, (3) inside the connector nozzle (10), and jointly with the air flow coming from a flexible hose (16), from where the air inflated by a compressor (17) enters said cartridge (3), forces the emission of the scent by the outlet orifice (18) of the top (19) of the box (20), thus providing the user a reliable olfactory testing.

This system includes an olfactory display in which a plurality of aroma source cartridges can be loaded, a terminal device that controls the olfactory display, and a server connected to the terminal device via a network. The terminal device includes a content reproducer that reproduces an aroma-added content downloaded from the server. Aroma reproduction information includes aroma numbers standardized to specify types of aromas. The content reproducer determines which one of the plurality of aroma source cartridges loaded in the olfactory display is to be used to reproduce an aroma based on the aroma number, and allows the aroma to be emitted from the olfactory display based on the aroma reproduction information in synchronization with video and/or sound.

A device or system is provided that provides olfactory stimuli, and includes a piezoelectric vibration device that is used to produce scents corresponding to actions performed in a VR or AR environment, or other application. In some implementations, a user interacts with one or more game elements within a game program being executed by a game engine, and responsive to the interaction, the game engine may communicate a series of commands that cause a piezoelectric device of the device to generate scents to be experienced by the user.

The present invention relates to a perfume dispensing device, the device being electronically controlled and the actuation of perfume spraying being performed via an actuator (12) located on or under a device housing (1). All components of the device are located on or in the housing (1), wherein the housing also accommodates a control circuit (10) for controlling the device, which may optionally include a system (13) for wireless communication with a smart device (14) having a dedicated application uploaded, through which the user sets the desired parameters. The device may include several storage containers (2), which allows the user to select the desired perfume or to personalise the perfume via a dedicated application. The actuator is actuated by pressing or touching the actuator (12) or via an external device.

An air freshener includes a first arm and a second arm connected together at one of their ends by a joint to enable swinging of the arms between an open configuration and a closed configuration. In a closed configuration, a fastener clasps opposite ends of the first arm and the second arm together to surround a central space in which a support structure, such as a support post of a rearview mirror on a vehicle, may be positioned. The first arm and the second arm each include an inner wall and lateral side walls defining an open chamber in which a fragrance substrate is retained by an interference fit. The inner wall defines an interior periphery, and ends of the lateral side walls define an exterior periphery of the air freshener.

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.

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.

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.

A fog generator assembly includes a water vapor generator, a fragrance dispenser, and a mixing element fluidly coupled to the water generator and the fragrance dispenser. The mixing element is configured to mix a fog of water vapor from the water vapor generator with a fragrance from the fragrance dispenser to produce an aromatic fog.

A system for releasing flavor is disclosed. The system comprises: a plurality of compartments adapted to receive a respective plurality of capsules, each capsule containing therein a flavor material; a dispenser system configured for dispensing into an environment a fluid obtained from at least one flavor material; and a controller configured for receiving data pertaining to a selection of at least two of the compartments and for signaling the dispenser system to dispense fluids obtained from flavor materials contained in capsules of the selected compartments.
