  • Patent number: 9248211
    Abstract: The system for delivering volatile substances (1) comprises a container (2) inside of which a volatile substance is housed; a ventilation surface (3) placed in said container (2) provided with ventilation windows; and a fan (4) for creating the ventilation of the fragrance of said volatile substance; and is characterized in that said fan (4) is placed over said ventilation surface (3), suctioning the fragrance of said volatile substance. It permits to optimize the evaporation of the fragrance of the volatile substance, expending the least energy possible.

  • Patent number: 8983278
    Abstract: A vaporizer device of the type which is connected to the electric mains by a plug (1), incorporating a single container (6) equipped with a body of two or more independent receptacles (8) which hold different liquid fragrances in which respective wicks (2) are immersed and a lid (9) which closes the body (7) and renders the receptacles (8) independent. The lid (9) comes with openings (10) in correspondence with the positions of the wicks (2) for the egress and vaporization of the fragrance by actuation of one or more resistance elements (3), located in opposition to the openings (10), either with use of a manual pushbutton (4) or automatically in accordance with a pre-established program, diffusing the fragrances in a sequential or combined manner during predetermined intervals of time.

  • Patent number: 8857731
    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to volatile substance evaporators having a container with wick, and has the object of providing a technique for effectively detecting end-of-life of the volatile substance housed within the container. The volatile substance evaporator is configured for coupling to, and maintaining in a stable position, a container of volatile substance having a wick with a lower end housed within said container and an upper end emerging from the container. The evaporator comprises an infrared light emitter disposed so as to emit a beam of light on said upper end of the wick, in such a manner that a receptor is disposed so as to capture said beam of light reflected by the upper end of the wick.

  • Publication number: 20140124593
    Abstract: A system for delivering volatile substances (1) comprising a housing (2) inside which a volatile substance is housed; a ventilation surface (3) placed in said housing (2) provided with ventilation windows, and a regulating element (4) that can be placed in at least two different positions: a first position of maximum air circulation, and a second position of minimum air circulation; and it is characterized in that in said first position, the regulating element (4) opens an additional ventilation opening (A), and in said second position, the regulating element (4) closes said of additional ventilation opening (A). It permits to regulate easily the circulation of air for increasing or decreasing the fragrance, for example, by simply rotating said regulating element.

  • Patent number: 8511580
    Abstract: Comprises a vessel (1) that houses the active liquid substance to be diffused, such as a fragrance, insecticide or other, through a breathable membrane (2) that closes the vessel (1) and comprises a porous part (3) placed near and parallel to the breathable membrane (2) in order to prevent the deformation of the membrane (2) when a vacuum is generated as the vessel (1) is emptied. The porous part (3) has a number of openings (4) through which passes the liquid to ensure its contact with the membrane (2) at all times for a homogenous evaporation and it occupies part of the volume of the vessel (1), absorbing the active substances, the non-volatile substances remaining in said porous part (3) after the vessel (1) has no more volatile components.
