Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for carrying it out according to claim 16.
  • a fragrance dissolved in solvent is blown into a climate controlled room in a low dosage via a separate supply system and spread via the air change caused by the air conditioning system until it falls below of a corresponding perception threshold evaporated again.
  • a comparable known method CH-386660
  • one or more scents are fed to a room in which a performance is taking place or to a cinema room where these scents can spread.
  • the fragrance is nebulized inside or outside the room to be scented and supplied to the room to be scented via a line system which contains a blower.
  • a quick change of scents is not intended according to this known proposal.
  • the uniform distribution of the fragrances in the room is problematic.
  • CONFIRMATION COPY Appropriate different scents for feeding into the room air can be controlled. Either air or helium can be used as a carrier for the fragrance.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a fragrance room for quickly exchangeable fragrances, which is simply designed in terms of ventilation and which makes it possible to deliver these to a larger audience with high frequency and for all noses at the same time as possible in a dosage which is controllable according to intensity and duration .
  • an elongated fragrance channel e.g. Similar to an aircraft fuselage, which preferably consists of a number of module sections, through which conditioned air flows and that a supply air quantity can be supplied to this air flow as a partial air flow with changing fragrances.
  • the supply is expediently carried out via processing circuits with an even distribution over the length of the fragrance channel. This is preferably done in such a way that the partial air flow in a duct system at the
  • the audience in the scent channel is oriented in one direction, similar to a cinema screening room.
  • the flow of the fragrance channel is preferably in the direction of view of the audience, i.e. from the back.
  • the usual limit values apply to the flow rate of the climate current. It should preferably be below 0.5 m / sec.
  • the audience is given a visual impression in the form of individual images or films, the associated projection surfaces preferably being arranged in the ceiling area of the fragrance channel, so that the space underneath can be flowed through essentially without obstacles.
  • the fragrance is processed in a separate treatment plant with a metering device, through which the fragrance is fed in gaseous form into the respective treatment cycle.
  • a plurality of processing circuits are advantageously provided, in which the fragrance fed in is distributed evenly before it is fed to the fragrance channel. This availability of the fragrance in the respective partial air flow of the processing circuits enables the fragrance to be changed quickly.
  • the fragrance itself can be present in the processing plant, for example in liquid, pasty or crystalline form; it is distributed so finely that it can be blown into the processing circuit in molecular form.
  • Appropriate filters are used to retain liquid droplets or larger particles.
  • a swirl chamber ensures one intimate mixing of the partial air flow (feed air quantity) with the fragrance particles.
  • the length of the fragrance channel can be ideally adapted to the particular circumstances. It is not only about the space available at the installation site, but also about its (size) adaptation to an existing visitor potential.
  • the fragrance channel according to the invention opens up the largely undiscovered phenomenon of smelling to humans. It enables exciting, entertaining or even scientifically founded to familiarize visitors to the fragrance channel with the meaning of the sense of smell. In this sense, the fragrance channel is a unique, multifunctional and multimedia instrument for tapping into the dimensions of seeing, hearing and smelling (SHR dimension).
  • the fragrance channel is also suitable as a museum, in which the public is introduced to the history of perfumery, including the extraction processes for fragrances and the anatomy of smell.
  • the fragrance channel can be used to conduct smell seminars or for training.
  • fragrance channel for different industries and target groups is therefore undisputed. Not only the branded perfume industry can introduce their innovations there and, if necessary, present them three-dimensionally by seeing, hearing, smelling; the chemical and fragrance industries can use the fragrance channel for image campaigns or as an educational tool. Finally, it also offers interesting applications for the food industry, for example when demonstrating cooking courses in the SHR dimension.
  • the scent duct 1 is closed off by a publicly accessible foyer 2 for the visitors, which is shown in broken lines.
  • the foyer can also be designed as a structure that completely or partially surrounds the fragrance channel.
  • the scent duct 1 is closed off by an operating building 3 with technical facilities.
  • the air conditioning and the conditioning system for the fragrance are housed in the operating building 3.
  • the air ducts for the preparation of partial air quantities mixed with fragrance are shown in the form of a treatment circuit 5 laid under the bottom 4 of the fragrance channel 1 and a treatment circuit 6 integrated in the upper side wall area; they each extend essentially over the entire length of the fragrance channel 1.
  • Both conditioning circuits 5, 6 are each supplied via an air supply 10 for a partial air quantity, into which a line connection 11 for the fragrance opens.
  • the partial air flow enriched with fragrance in the processing circuits 5, 6 is connected to the interior of the fragrance channel 1 via numerous feed openings 7 - several in the area of each module section la, lb, lc.
  • the feed openings 7 can be actuated via slides or valves, not shown, so that the time of inflow and the amount of inflow can be controlled.
  • the numerous feed openings 7 ensure that a new fragrance can be smelled at the same time for all visitors in the fragrance channel 1.
  • the fragrance can flow in through the processing circuits through the bottom 4 of the fragrance channel 1 or laterally through its semicircular shell 8 or at the same time through feed openings 7 in the bottom 4 and in the lateral shell 8.
  • the fragrance channel 1 essentially consists of a semicircular shell 8.
  • the visitors enter the fragrance channel either through the foyer 2 or via side sliding doors 12, only one of which is exemplary in the area of the central module section 1b is drawn.
  • the shell 8 of the fragrance channel 1 has on its upper side a continuous roof shape 9 in which the projection surfaces for the film screenings or for the representation of images are accommodated. This enables a uniform flow of conditioned air through the entire length of the fragrance channel.
  • the conditioned air is conditioned in the operating building 3 and flows into the associated end wall of the fragrance channel 1; In the area of the opposite end wall, the scented and air-conditioned room air is extracted, which from there is either blown into the surroundings as used air or is returned to the operating building 3 via air ducts (not shown) for reprocessing.
  • the individual module sections la, lb, lc are of identical design to one another and are provided with corresponding connections or couplings for the lines, both of the electrical and of the air-conditioning devices. This makes it possible to prefabricate the fragrance channel 1 in the form of individual transportable module sections la, lb, lc and to assemble it at the installation site. Depending on the selected number of module sections, the fragrance channel can have a different length, i.e. be adapted to local conditions.
  • the seating in the fragrance channel should be chosen so that the visitor can position himself leaning far back so that he has a direct view of one of the projection surfaces above the visitors' heads and thus enjoy the undisturbed enjoyment of an audiovisual performance accompanied by smells.
