Abstract: A dispenser having a base and a main body defining a cavity configured to receive sanitary tissue product sheets therein. The sanitary tissue product sheets may be positioned within the cavity and may be configured to be dispensed through an aperture formed through a top face and a front side face of the main body. The sanitary tissue product sheets may include at least a leading sheet and a second sheet. The second sheet may be configured to follow the leading sheet when the leading sheet is dispensed, such that the second sheet is partially parked through the aperture and has a non-uniform top edge and is deformed out of plane.

Abstract: Method for targeted application of active agents to a target surface including: creating a digital geometric representation of the target surface; providing an array of applicators; selecting an applicator from the array of applicators based on the target surface; disposing the active agent on the applicator surface of the applicator; disposing the applicator on the target surface so that the active agent is in contact with the target surface; and removing the applicator from the target surface while leaving at least some of the active agent in contact with the target surface.

Abstract: An applicator comprises a first structural element which has a shape determined according to a digital geometric representation of a target structure, the applicator further comprises an active agent located according to a diagnostic scan of the target structure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a volatile composition dispenser. The volatile composition dispenser comprises a sealed reservoir containing a volatile composition, a membrane surrounding at least part of the sealed reservoir, and a rupture mechanism formed of a single piece of plastic located between the membrane and the sealed reservoir. The rupture mechanism comprises a support, and a movable portion attached to the support at a proximal end of the movable portion by at least one connection member. The connection member has a depth less than the depth of the movable portion and/or a width less than the width of the movable portion. One or more rupture elements are located at a distal end of the movable portion, wherein the distal end of the movable portion is movable relative to the support upon activation. Upon activation of the rupture mechanism, the one or more rupture elements are moved into contact with the reservoir such that they puncture the reservoir to release the volatile composition.
