  • APPLICATOR HEAD FOR A DISPENSER, AS WELL AS A DISPENSER COMPRISING SUCH AN APPLICATOR HEAD
    Publication number: 20150202644
    Abstract: An applicator head for discharging media from a reservoir, including a housing with a coupling device for coupling to the reservoir, an inlet opening, an applicator opening for discharging medium into a surrounding atmosphere, a conveying device for conveying the medium from the inlet opening to the applicator opening and an actuating handle, movable relative to the housing to actuate the conveying device. The housing is a one-piece injection molded part formed from two plastics having different properties. The coupling device is constructed of a first of the two plastics. A ring seal surrounds the inlet opening and is arranged to bear tightly against the reservoir when coupled to the applicator head. A venting valve with an aperture which opens in a pressure-dependent manner and through which ambient air flows from the surrounding atmosphere into the reservoir, is constructed of the second of the two plastics.

  • FRAGRANCING SYSTEM FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
    Publication number: 20150137395
    Abstract: A fragrancing system for a motor vehicle, having a housing, in which a replaceable fragrance storage container is inserted, which has an opening for dispensing a fragrance which is covered by a closure mechanism which frees the opening for dispensing of the fragrance when actuated by an actuator. In a fragrancing system which is of simple construction and nevertheless operates reliably, the housing is provided with a cover, which for introduction of the fragrance storage container is mounted so as to be pivotable about an axis of rotation into a housing interior, wherein when the fragrance storage container is introduced it is locked by the cover.
