Abstract: A removable cap for receiving a writing implement includes a reverse clip. The cap has a hollow crown section for receiving the writing implement and an elongate cap extension that extends axially from the hollow crown section and includes an end that terminates in a clip flange. An elongate holding prong projecting substantially perpendicular from the clip flange and extending and opening toward the closed first end of the crown section in substantially parallel-spaced relation to the cap extension so as to define in conjunction with the cap extension and the hollow crown section, an elongate U-shaped slot, which is adapted to snugly engage an attachment material inserted into the slot. A gripping member is located within the U-shaped slot and is configured to intimately engage the attachment material inserted into the slot to assist in maintaining the engagement between the cap and attachment material when the writing implement is removed from the cap.

Abstract: Apparatus for dissipating a fragrance or malodor eliminator utilizes an infused disc which a user can place in either a rotating or a fixed position. The two states will dissipate a scent/malodor-eliminator at different rates. The disc is mounted on a shaft that secures the disc in an air stream. The shaft defines several positions at which the disc can be placed, as well as structures to retain the disc at a selected location along the shaft. The shaft is part of a support which includes a mechanism for securing the apparatus within the air stream. Air flow causes the disc to rotate and dissipate at one rate or to pass through a stationary disc at a second, lower rate, as a function of the position of the disc on the shaft. A method of imparting a scent or malodor eliminator to air is also disclosed.

Abstract: Manufacture of a scented authorization card applies a first portion of card data retrieved from a database to either a dimensionally stable substrate or to a scent-emanating layer. Those components are thereafter laminated together. A post-lamination step in which at least a second portion of card data is applied to the laminated authorization card completes the manufacture. The scent-emanating layer can have a fragrance substituted for a portion of a plasticizer which diffuses over time from the layer into the ambient.

Abstract: An authorization card that has two broad surfaces and an edge therebetween. The machine-readable code supported on the card contains data that is readable by an electronic device. A fragrance is substituted for a portion of a plasticizer within the plastic body and diffuses into the ambient over a long period of time.
