  • Patent number: 11433155
    Abstract: A wick-based diffuser is configured for diffusing a liquid volatile substance composition into an air flow path extending through the diffuser to disseminate the volatile substance composition throughout a surrounding volume (e.g., a vehicle interior). Diffusers may comprise a body defining a hollow interior and having an air flow path extending therethough; a reservoir; a wick extending from the reservoir and into the hollow interior of the body; and a closure mechanism configured to selectably isolate the wick and the reservoir from the air flow path extending through the body. Wick-based diffusers may be mounted to a support device via a low-friction mounting mechanism located above a center of gravity of the diffuser, such that the diffuser self-aligns in an upright orientation under the influence of gravity.

  • Patent number: 11400178
    Abstract: An example embodiment of a volatile substance diffuser comprises a housing defining a housing axis; and a component carrying a volatile substance. The component defines an air passageway there through. The component is secured to an inner surface of the housing. The air passageway defines an air passageway axis and the housing axis and the air passageway axis are approximately parallel. In an example embodiment, the volatile substance diffuser further comprises a clip secured to the housing and configured to removably secure the volatile substance diffuser to a slat of an air vent (e.g., an automobile air vent, building air vent, and/or the like).
