The invention relates to a sealing arrangement of a fragrance container, wherein the fragrance container has a container body and a container lid, wherein the container lid can be placed on the container body in a sealable manner, wherein the container lid has an opening in which a displaceably guided sealing lid is accommodated, wherein the container lid has at least one projecting, rigid lip running around the opening, which lip projects towards the sealing lid, wherein a flat seal is arranged on the sealing lid against which seal the at least one lip rests in the closed state of the opening. The invention also relates to a fragrance container.

A sanitizing device for a vehicle (20) which, when in use, is adapted to deliver chemical agents and/or gases for sanitizing the interior of a vehicle (10). Additionally, the sanitizing device (20) integrally comprises a pressure sensor (30) adapted to monitor the pressure inside the vehicle (10) when the sanitizing device (20) is in use. In particular, when the door (11) is opened, the sensor (30) detects a pressure gradient, thus interrupting the delivery of the chemical agents and/or gases inside the vehicle (10).

A system that can selectively activate or deactivate one or more ultra-violet light sources to sanitize a portion of a vehicle. The system can include a vehicle that has a vehicle door. The system can include one or more sensors that can be configured to detect whether the vehicle door is open or closed. In response to detecting that the vehicle door is open, the system can cause the one or more ultra-violet light sources to be activated, whereby ultra-violet light is emitted by the one or more ultra-violet light sources with respect to at least a portion of the vehicle. In some instances, the ultra-violet light can be emitted across the door frame of an open door. In some instances, the ultra-violet light can be emitted within at least a portion of the vehicle cabin.

Systems for providing heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) in transit vehicles include one or more sanitizers. Sanitizers can include a pre-filter installed upstream of a filter, a filter including or coated with an anti-pathogen material, or a treatment dispenser providing a treatment including an anti-pathogen material to reduce pathogen risk and/or improve air quality within the transit vehicle. Methods for operating a transit HVAC system can include reducing pathogens. Pathogens can be reduced by one or more of filtering air passing through the transit HVAC system using a pre-filter, filtering the air passing through the transit HVAC system using a filter that is coated with or includes an anti-pathogen material, or providing a treatment including the anti-pathogen material to the air passing through the transit HVAC system. Systems can further be configured to provide air first to a driver section of the transit vehicle.

A charging device for charging an electrical energy store of a motor vehicle includes a fragrance dispensing device, where a fragrance is dispensable into a surrounding of the charging device by the fragrance dispensing device. A method for charging an electrical energy store of a motor vehicle includes dispensing a fragrance into a surrounding of a charging device by a fragrance dispensing device integrated in the charging device.

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.

The present invention is a hand sanitizer, air purification, fogger vehicle mount, or combination thereof, attach to a dashboard of a vehicle. Its purpose is to maximize disinfecting opportunities as a countermeasure to the spread of disease, including COVID-19. As a hand sanitizer, this invention is a hand-free device that minimizes cross-contamination among vehicle patrons during operation. A sensor, activated by hand proximity, sends a signal to a controller, then to a pump to dispense a portion-controlled volume of hand sanitizer. To disinfect airborne antigens, HEPA filtration and UV light are utilized. Pathogen lingering on surfaces are disinfected by a fogger, which dispenses atomized droplets throughout a vehicle. To eliminate exposure to nebulized sanitizer, the controller may receive a wireless signal from outside the vehicle. Independently powered, a vehicle can be sanitized each time it arrives at a destination, made ready to transport the next group of patrons safely.

An ergonomic scent diffuser having a first housing with electrical components connected to a second housing having a heating element disposed within. Slidably connected to the second housing is a cap. The cap has depressions adjacent an outer end to provide an ergonomic grip. The cap also has guide rails and retaining members that retain and position a fragrance emitting member over the heating element.
