20080245890 | Device for Dispensing Volatile Compounds in a Gel to the Ambient Air - The invention relates to improvements in or relating to containers and in particular to an air freshening or purifying device comprising a primary container comprising an inner section and outer section each having a circumferential side wall. One of the sections has retaining means which defines at least one vapour release aperture and the other having a base. The inner section side wall is dimensioned so as to fit inside the outer section side wall, the two sections being interlockable to form the primary container. A refill container has a gel receiving surface having at least one recess for receiving a gel composition, and is located and firmly held within the primary container, the base being provided with means for attachment of the device to a surface. | 10-09-2008 |
20080257978 | Fragrance Dispenser - Fragrance dispenser products and methods of manufacture are disclosed. For example, one embodiment of a fragrance dispenser according to the present invention includes a container having an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface defining a cavity; a quantity of gel disposed within the cavity, the quantity of gel having a fragrance and configured to evaporate when exposed to air, wherein the container is configured to engage with a mounting bracket; and at least one opening defined by and extending through the outer and inner surfaces, the opening configured to expose the quantity of gel to air and to provide a visual indication of the quantity of gel. | 10-23-2008 |
20090039175 | VAPORIZATION OF THERMALLY SENSITIVE MATERIALS - A vaporizer for receiving and vaporizing particulate material, comprising: a heater having a reticulated material structure composed of ligands that define voids adapted to receive particulate materials, wherein the voids comprise greater than 85% of the volume of the reticulated material structure so that delivery of particulate material into the voids and conduction of vaporized material from the voids is facilitated; causes heat to be produced or conducted by the ligands to cause the particulate material in the voids to vaporize and be conducted through the voids. | 02-12-2009 |
20090152374 | Gel-Based Liquid Dispensing Device - An active volatile liquid-dispensing device comprising a gel and a separate source of active volatile liquid (“the source”), the gel

20090200393 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DIFFUSING THE FRAGRANCE OF A BURNING CANDLE - A method and apparatus for controlling a candle flame. A candle flame may be provided in a controllable environment, e.g., a semi-enclosed area formed at least in part by a cover. Air may be forced into the semi-enclosed area by an air movement device (e.g., a fan) to diffuse a candle's fragrance. The fragrance diffusion rate may be reduced by reducing (e.g., stopping) air flow into the semi-enclosed area. | 08-13-2009 |
20090218415 | VAPOR-DISPENSING DEVICE COMPRISING AVAILABILITY INDICATOR - In general, a vapor-dispensing device ( | 09-03-2009 |
20100163643 | CONTAINER FOR EVAPORATING VOLATILE SUBSTANCES AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SAID CONTAINER - A thermoformed container is provided for evaporating volatile substances, which is provided with means enabling such container to withstand high temperatures without experiencing deformations which deteriorate its functionality or appearance. The container has a reinforcing film having a deformation temperature exceeding the plastic material sheet with which the container is obtained. Also disclosed is a method for manufacturing said container. | 07-01-2010 |
20100270393 | Wearable Chemical Dispenser - Disclosed herein are wearable devices for dispensing insect repellents, fragrances, and/or other chemicals along the outside of the clothing of a human, to avoid the need to apply such chemicals directly to clothing or to human's skin. The devices have an on/off switch that automatically controls a shutter which enables and restricts air flow, while also controlling fan operation and covering of a use-up cue. The device also is designed to prevent fan operation when an impregnated slab is not present. Also disclosed are preferred refills for use with such devices. | 10-28-2010 |

20110168803 | MICROCRYSTALLINE WAX CAPSULE PERFUME DIFFUSING DEVICE - The invention relates to perfume diffusing devices, particularly, to a microcrystalline wax housing perfume diffusing device, comprising a light-transmitting microcrystalline wax housing and electronic component. The housing has a first cavity zone inside which perfumed volatile material, being perfume-volatilizable, is placed. The electronic component is inside the housing; and includes a LED light, battery compartment, and power switch. The perfumed volatile material in the first cavity zone can volatilize perfume, and the light from the LED of the electronic component can penetrate the housing and shine out, so the device functions as ornamentation and illumination, which richens the function of the device and widens its applications. The housing is formed of microcrystalline wax and can emit perfume itself, hence the invention has a relatively long performance life because when the perfumed volatile material is used up or unable to emit perfume, the microcrystalline wax can still emit perfume itself. | 07-14-2011 |
20130056551 | RELEASABLY ENCAPSULATED AROMA - Gelatin capsules encapsulating an aroma material including at least one aroma compound may be applied to product packaging, such as food packaging etc., with a secondary protective coating, e.g., at the interface of a container and its closure device. The gelatin capsules can be ruptured or broken when the container is opened, thereby releasing the aroma compound and causing a favorable aroma for the consumer. The secondary protective coating can reduce or prevent degradation of the gelatin capsules during product packaging, transport, and storage, thereby enhancing their performance. | 03-07-2013 |
20130126634 | SOLID AIR FRESHENER - The present invention relates to a solid pressed air freshener and odor neutralizer composition which can include greater than 10% fragrance. The air freshener comprises a fragrance; preferably the fragrance is impregnated within a water soluble substrate made from a foamed vegetable starch, a surfactant and a solidifier. The solid formulations break down easily in the presence of water and may be sprayed, within the area to be freshened. | 05-23-2013 |
20140076991 | SOLID STATE FRAGRANCING - Fragrance control is provided by articles of manufacture including various solid state fragrancing objects, methods of using such objects, and systems that employ one or more such objects. The fragrancing object can be easy to manufacture, long lasting, provide fragrance that is consistently released over time, provide an indication to the user that the object needs to be replaced, and can hold a desired ratio of fragrance. The fragrancing object can include a first material comprising a polyether block amide, a second material comprising a polyolefin elastomer (POE), and a fragrance component such as a fragrance oil. | 03-20-2014 |
20150090806 | SOLID AIR FRESHENER - The present invention relates to a solid pressed air freshener and odor neutralizer composition which can include greater than 10% fragrance. The air freshener comprises a fragrance; preferably the fragrance is impregnated within a water soluble substrate made from a foamed vegetable starch, a surfactant and a solidifier. The solid formulations break down easily in the presence of water and may be sprayed, within the area to be freshened. | 04-02-2015 |
