DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0017] There are a number of significant design features and improvements incorporated within the invention.

[0018] The current invention, as shown in FIGS. 1 through 6, is a strongly scented dissolving scented puck 10 or tissue paper 15. It would be placed in the toilet 200 before use, and releases a fresh scent as it dissolves.

[0019] The puck 10 or toilet paper 15 air freshener would be made of a material that rapidly dissolves in water, while releasing a scent. As the puck 10 or toilet paper 15 dissolves, it will also create a film barrier on top of the water.

[0020] The puck 10 can be made with various scents or as an unscented chlorine tablet. The puck 10 or toilet paper 15 would be placed in the toilet bowl before the toilet is used as shown in FIG. 7. The puck 10 is a rapid dissolvable tablet infused and a scent or scents and dry chlorine. Once dropped into the water in the toilet bowl that puck 10 gives a burst of scent which serves to overpowers the smell of fecal matter.

[0021] The pucks 10 are designed in a shape that is easy to use and store. The rounded puck 10 are designed to be stored and dispensed from a dispenser 100 as shown in FIGS. 1 through 6.

[0022] The dispenser 100 has a base 40 on which a holding cylinder 30 is attached. The base 40 has an opening which gives the user access to the pucks 10. The pucks 10 are stacked in the cylinder 30 with the cylinder 30 having a slightly larger circumference then the pucks 10. The cylinder 30 is opened on the top which is covered by a lid 50. The pucks 10 are placed into the cylinder 30 through the opening at the top and stack against each other.

[0023] The dispenser 100 may have a dispensing handle 20 which when pressed releases a puck 10 to the opening in the base 40. In another embodiment, the puck 10 are stacked with the bottom puck 10 being level with the opening in the base 10 so a user just pulls the bottom puck 10 out.

ADVANTAGES

[0024] The innovative air freshener provides a proactive, precision-based approach to bathroom air freshening. Unlike air freshening sprays, these tabs are used before smells are able to take hold. Unlike constant-release air fresheners and in-tank chemical dispensers, these products are used only when needed. It will address foul odors before they become a problem, without resorting to a constant release of chemical.

[0025] Although the present invention has been described in considerable detail with reference to certain preferred versions thereof, the point and scope of the appended claims should not be limited to the description of the preferred versions contained herein.

[0026] As to a further discussion of the manner of usage and operation of the present invention, the same should be apparent from the above description. Accordingly, no further discussion relating to the manner of usage and operation will be provided. With respect to the above description, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.

[0027] Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
