  • Apparatus for releasing differing amounts of an air freshener from a container
    Patent number: 6866169
    Abstract: A dispenser (200) used in conjunction with a conventional replaceable cartridge (100) containing an air freshener. The dispenser (200) includes a first portion (300) and a second portion (400). The first portion (300) is actuatable and includes a diaphragm (350) and a step (351). The second portion (400) is actuatable and includes a flat ring (460) arranged proximate to the step (351) of the first portion (300). When the first portion (300) is actuated, the diaphragm (350) contacts a nozzle (130) of the conventional container (100), thereby releasing a first amount of air freshener. When the second portion (400) is actuated, the diaphragm (350) of the first portion (300) is forced over a portion of the nozzle (130) such that the flat ring (460) of the second portion (400) contacts the nozzle (130), thereby releasing a second amount of air freshener.
