HUMIDIFICATION AND AIR CLEANING APPARATUS
Provided is a humidification and air cleaning apparatus. The humidification and air cleaning apparatus includes an intake flow passage suctioning external air, a discharge flow passage discharging internal air, a blower unit flowing air flowing to the intake flow passage to the discharge flow passage, a discharge humidification medium disposed on the discharge flow passage to additionally humidify flowing air, a water tank humidification medium disposed between the blower unit and the discharge humidification medium to humidify flowing air, and a watering unit spraying water between the water tank humidification medium and the discharge humidification medium.
APPARATUS FOR BOTH HUMIDIFICATION AND AIR CLEANING
Provided is a humidification and air cleaning apparatus. The humidification and air cleaning apparatus includes a water tank storing water; a top cover assembly disposed over the water tank and including a water supply flow passage disposed therein to supply water into the water tank; a reservoir disposed in the top cover assembly, disposed on the water supply flow passage, and storing supplied water; and a watering housing disposed inside the water tank and receiving a torque from a watering motor so as to be rotatable. Here, water supplied through the water supply flow passage is stored in the reservoir, and then drops on an upper part of the watering housing.
Microfluidic delivery system and cartridge having an outer cover
A cartridge for a microfluidic delivery system is defined by a longitudinal axis. The cartridge includes a reservoir for containing a fluid composition. The cartridge also includes a nozzle operatively connected with the reservoir. The nozzle is in fluid communication with the reservoir for releasing the fluid composition. The cartridge includes an outer cover operatively connected with the reservoir. The outer cover comprises an orifice that is adjacent to the nozzle. An air flow path is formed by a gap between the reservoir and the outer cover.
MODULAR AIR FRESHENER SYSTEM
Example embodiments provide a modular air freshener system. The modular air freshener system comprises a plurality of different carriers and at least one scent device. The scent device is separately and removably carriable by each of the plurality of different carriers. At least one of the different carriers is carriable by another one of the plurality of different carriers. The each of the carriers may be passive, active and self-powered, or active and externally-powered.
Device for packaging and dispensing a cosmetic composition and associated dispensing method
This device (10) for packaging and dispensing a cosmetic composition, which comprises: a housing (12) capable of being grasped by a user of the device (10); a reservoir (14) contained in the housing (12), the reservoir (14) being intended to contain a cosmetic composition, the cosmetic composition comprising at least one active substance; an assembly (16) for heating the cosmetic composition capable of vaporizing the cosmetic composition de la composition; a control member (18) able to control the heating assembly (16); is characterized in that it has a driving member (22) capable of moving the vaporized cosmetic composition out of the device (10), the control member (18) being able to control the heating assembly (16) so that the vaporized cosmetic composition driven out of the device (10) by the driving member (22) permanently has a temperature less than 70 C.
Multiple pump evaporative media system
An evaporative media system having multiple media stages each served by a separate pump is disclosed. In one aspect, the evaporative media system has a first media stage and a second media stage. A first pump is provided that is configured to deliver water from the first compartment of the water storage tank to the first media stage. Additionally, a second pump is provided that is configured to deliver water from the first compartment of the water storage tank to the second media stage. Additional media stages and pumps may be provided as well. The disclosed configuration eliminates the need for individual staging valves, provides a higher level of operational redundancy, reduces electrical consumption, and can be provided at a lower cost, as compared to many existing systems.
OLFACTORY DISPLAY
An olfactory display includes a housing and a plurality of fragrance chambers formed in the housing. In each fragrance chamber, a solid-like fragrance source is accommodated and an airflow source is provided to send air into the fragrance chamber from an air intake port. An auxiliary airflow source that emits odorless air is also provided in the housing. The airflow source and the auxiliary airflow source are operated alternately or simultaneously. In response to a user operating an adjustment knob of a controller, operating time periods and stopping time periods of the airflow source and the auxiliary airflow source are changed, or the number of operating times is changed within a predetermined operating time period. A mixing ratio of the fragrance and the odorless air may also be adjusted by changing a voltage value of an alternating voltage to be applied to a piezoelectric device of the airflow source.
MICROFLUIDIC DELIVERY SYSTEM AND CARTRIDGE HAVING AN OUTER COVER
A cartridge for a microfluidic delivery system is defined by a longitudinal axis. The cartridge includes a reservoir for containing a fluid composition. The cartridge also includes a nozzle operatively connected with the reservoir. The nozzle is in fluid communication with the reservoir for releasing the fluid composition. The cartridge includes an outer cover operatively connected with the reservoir. The outer cover comprises an orifice that is adjacent to the nozzle. An air flow path is formed by a gap between the reservoir and the outer cover.
AIR CLEANING FOUNTAIN
A fountain is provided. The fountain includes: a drape; a catch basin located below the drape and oriented to catch a fluid flowing at least one of over and through the drape; a conduit fluidly connected to the catch basin forming a circuit to return the fluid in the catch basin to flow at least one of over and through the drape; a pump fluidly connected to the circuit and configured to pump the fluid through the conduit; and at least one of the drape, catch basin, conduit includes surface oriented to contact the fluid and the surface includes at least one of copper and silver.
SCENTED FAN FRAGRANCE DELIVERY SYSTEM
This application generally relates to systems, devices, and methods for delivering a fragrance. In some embodiments, portable fragrance delivery systems are provided. In further embodiments, improved fragrance delivery systems are provided that provide increased dispersion of scented agents by utilizing a fan formed from a fragrant material.
