Definitions

  • the invention relates to the controlled diffusion of a volatile active ingredient for e.g. deodorizing, disinfecting, humidifying or keeping mosquitoes away.
  • a device for dispensing a volatile active ingredient generally comprises a support for holding the volatile active ingredient.
  • the device may also include a blower , e.g. a fan, and a battery.
  • a blower e.g. a fan
  • a battery e.g. a battery
  • the support extends around the battery and is adapted to hold a porous block which is impregnated with a volatile active ingredient.
  • the support may consist of a cup with an annular recess adapted to receive a volatile active ingredient being in the form of a liquid, a gel or a porous block.
  • One object of the invention is to provide a refill for the devices previously defined.
  • the refill of the invention combines the advantages of a volatile active ingredient being in the form of a liquid, a gel or a porous block.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a device which may be used with the new refill.
  • the invention concerns a refill for a volatile active ingredient dispenser comprising a reservoir containing a volatile active ingredient in liquid or gel form, said reservoir comprising a wall consisting of a diffusing membrane.
  • the refill of the invention is characterized by the fact that it is adapted to be held in a circular support such as an annular recess.
  • the refill comprises channels between the reservoirs to equalize the level once installed.
  • the membrane faces the internal part of the wrapped foil (once installed) to fully use the air flow passing trough it in a forced/natural air flow.
  • the refill is wrapped with the membrane on the external part to take full advantage of natural/forced air flow for a better diffusion of the active principle.
  • the reservoirs are arranged in a sheet where the user can cut by any meaning the desired part of them.
  • a diffuser refill for liquids and gels where the diffusion rate is trimmed by the user by cutting a desired quantity of elements, intending as element a confined zone where there is a volume to contain the liquid and a membrane to dispense it.
  • the refill with a sealing sheet that prevents unwanted diffusion and that can be peeled off to activate the diffusion.
  • a barex film is thermoformed in a strip with six cavities filled with liquid fragrance (an automatic production machine takes care of all the process, from the foil to the finished product).
  • a porous membrane is applied to close the cavities and an alluminium peel-off cover is applied over it (the picture shows the back of the cavities, the membrane is on the hidden face).
  • a permanent (i.e. non disposable) cup A permanent (i.e. non disposable) cup.
  • the plastic cup formerly a part of the refill, is now just an adapter to fit the refill in the dispenser and doesnt' have to be replaced once fitted.
  • the operator peel away the alluminium sheet from the refill, exposing the membrane, ply the refill along the ribs in an hexagon-like shape and insert it in the adapter (inner ribs are holding it in place).
  • the cup is ready to receive the battery and to be inserted into the dispenser.
  • the peel-off seal can be used to sign the exchange date.
  • Figure 1 illustrates a refill according to the invention
  • Figure 2 shows the introduction of the refill of figure 1 into a cup
  • Figure 3 shows a cup containing refill
  • the refill 1 shown in figure 1 is made of a thermoformed sheet containing six cavities. Each cavity forms a reservoir 7.
  • the reservoirs 7 and the space around them are covered by a single diffusing layer, acting as a diffusing membrane 4 for each reservoir 7.
  • the reservoirs 7 are connected to each others via channels 2.
  • the external face of the diffusing layer is covered by a peel-off aluminum sheet 3.
  • Figure 2 shows the introduction of the refill 1 into an annular recess 6 forming part of a support 5. Before its introduction in the annular recess 6, the refill 1 is bent in order to form an annular shape.
  • Figure 3 shows the refill 1 in the annular recess 6.
  • the support 5 is then installed in a dispenser (not illustrated) which, advantageously comprises a fan.
  • the refill 1 When the refill 1 is used, it may be easily replaced by a new one.
  • the support 5 can be re-used.
