  • Publication number: 20240042083
    Abstract: A plug-in diffuser, such as a fragrance diffuser, has a configuration that preserves a substance to be diffused, such as a fragrance. A configuration of a body of the plug-in diffuser may prevent the substance to be diffused from contacting an electrical plug of the fragrance diffuser and/or from entering into an electrical outlet. A receptacle in a top of the body of the plug-in diffuser may receive a reservoir of the substance to be diffused. A canopy assembled with the body may provide decorative effects (e.g., appearance, lighting, etc.).

  • Patent number: 10010639
    Abstract: An electrical plug in fragrance dispenser can include a removable decorative sheath. The dispenser can be configured so that, when the sheath is attached, an electrical outlet is completely covered. In this way, the dispenser will have the appearance of a more permanent decorative light fixture. The dispenser can also be configured to plug into two outlets of an electrical receptacle thereby increasing the stability of the dispenser when attached to the wall or other surface. The dispenser may also include an outlet so that the receptacle can still be used when the dispenser is secured overtop the receptacle.

  • Publication number: 20160214778
    Abstract: A clamshell packaging for scented wax can serve as a tray when warming the wax within a candle warmer. The clamshell packaging can be shaped and sized to fit within a dish of a candle warmer and can be made of a heat conducting material. In this way, the user can place the packaging directly in the dish of a candle warmer so that the wax is melted within the packaging rather than within the dish. After the wax has been used, the user can simply remove the packaging from the dish and throw it away. The clamshell packaging can include a lid with a number of vents to allow the wax within the base to be heated while the lid is secured over the base. These vents can be configured to control the rate at which the scent within the wax is emitted from the clamshell packaging.
