  • Publication number: 20070001025
    Abstract: A diffuser for an air freshener product includes a casing having front and rear casing portions fastened together. A neck opening is formed inside said casing into which a neck of an air freshener reservoir is secured. A wick extends from the neck of the air freshener reservoir into the interior of the casing. The casing has openings in the front and back through which air flows. An air flow control element is provided in the casing to permit a user to change the air flow to the wick and thereby vary the air freshener product dispersed into the air. The air flow control element has a knob extending from the casing that is operable by the user. The rear portion of the casing has a fastener to which is attached a clip having two extended flexible arms that engage into a vent grill of an air conditioner system of a vehicle. The clip is securable in the fastener at positions oriented 90 degrees from one another to enable the clip to be fastened to vertically or horizontally oriented air conditioner grill slats.

  • Publication number: 20060193611
    Abstract: It is of the type of those which are connected to the electric mains by means of a plug (1), incorporates 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 said openings (10), by means 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: 7070172
    Abstract: The present invention is related to devices for evaporating volatile substances in a closed environment, without the use of electric power, heating elements or absorption wicks, for the purpose of simplifying and maximally reducing the cost of the device, but at the same time maintaining its efficacy and also allowing the user to be able to adjust at will the degree of evaporation of said product. For that purpose, the evaporator device uses a vapor permeable membrane as the element responsible for causing the evaporation of the product to be evaporated. The device is especially intended to be used with the cooperation of an air current with a suitable temperature enhancing the evaporation and diffusion of the volatile substance, such as the ventilation air outlet of a vehicle, for example. The volatile substance consists in an air-freshening product, insecticide or the like. The invention is also related to a method for the evaporation of volatile substances through a membrane.

  • Publication number: 20060120701
    Abstract: Incorporates a device for active substances (3) which has a wick (6) and a first heating resistor (8) for operating the diffuser on normal system. It also has a single button (12) connected through an electronic circuit (10) to an additional second heating resistor (9) located in the same channel and after the first heating resistor (8) in the vicinity of the wick (6). Activation of the button (12) determines the switching on of the second heating resistor (9) and can also activate at the same time a fan (4) or even based on a fan speed (4) increase the same, moving from normal operating mode to boost mode in which a substantial and instant increase in evaporation and diffusion of the active substances is produced.

  • Patent number: 7055764
    Abstract: It relates to an evaporator device of those which are used to diffuse fragrances, insecticides or other substances which are held in a recipient (1) in the form of two immiscible liquids. It comprises two wicks (2, 2?) which extend from the interior of the recipient (1) in contact with the liquid or the liquids to the exterior where the evaporation area thereof is located, and a stopper cover (3) which closes the recipient (1) and which is traversed by the wicks (2, 2?). One of the wicks (2) has an impermeable layer (4) which extends from its lower extremity to the stopper cover (3) of the recipient (1) preventing contact with one of the liquids and enabling the ingress of the other liquid into the wick (2) only through its lower extremity, thereby allowing the independent egress of each liquid through each wick (2, 2?).
