Abstract: A fragrance diffuser, particularly for small spaces, comprising a main body which forms an expansion seat, a containment chamber, which is segregated from the remaining part of the main body for containing a fluid, and a membrane which faces the external environment and is at least partially proximate to the expansion seat; at least one passage channel being interposed between the containment chamber and the expansion seat, provided internally with at least one barrier partition for the fluid. The fragrance diffuser has a closed configuration in which the partition is active to stop the passage of the fluid from the containment chamber to the expansion seat and a configuration for use in which the partition is inactive for the passage of the fluid from the containment chamber to the membrane, passing through the expansion seat.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for manufacturing packages of product; the apparatus according to the invention comprises elements for feeding a plurality of trays, which are arranged substantially horizontally and so that their corresponding cavities are directed upward and are distributed in a line along at least one advancement direction, along which at least one unit for filling at least one of the trays at a time and at least one unit for applying covering elements to the filled tray in order to obtain a package are arranged; the application unit can move in a reciprocating fashion along the advancement direction between an initial configuration, which substantially coincides with the longitudinal position at which the filling of the tray ends with respect to the advancement direction, and a final configuration, which is advanced with respect to the initial one, the filling unit being movable in a reciprocating manner toward and away from the longitudinal end filling position.

Abstract: An apparatus for forming sheet material in order to obtain containers comprises conveying means arranged for advancing the sheet material, a welding unit arranged for welding the sheet material along peripheral edges of the containers to be formed, a forming unit arranged for forming the sheet material in order to obtain the containers, at least one of said units being mounted on guiding means so that it is possible to adjust the longitudinal position of the at least one unit with respect to the other unit(s).

Abstract: The apparatus includes advancement clamps which move two mutually facing films along an advancement direction on which the following are arranged in sequence: two welding half-molds, which by mutually welding the two films in preset regions define cells which are open toward a longitudinal edge of the films; two half-molds for heating the welded films; a cell forming station. Air injection nozzles, inserted between the two flaps of the films on the side of the above mentioned longitudinal edge, and two forming half-molds, in which forming cavities are defined at the cells, operate in the forming station. Divaricators for divaricating the two flaps of the films are provided proximate to the forming station so as to facilitate the insertion of the air injection nozzles.
