BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a scent emitter which is small and easy to operate.

[0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The use of scents or scents dates back to the ancient Egyptian era and was mainly used in religious ceremonies. Today, due to advances in chemical technology, it has been used in various cosmetics and toiletry products. Recently, it was re-recognized that the fragrance has the effect of calming stress, which is one of the modern diseases that occurred with the development of modern technological civilization, and a fragrance boom occurred in search of stress relief. There is. Under such circumstances, a device for emitting a scent to a certain space has been developed and researched. They are listed below. Indoor aroma unit (aroma unit that combines an electric fan and a weight measuring device): Uchida Hiroyuki Sales Catalog Outlet type aroma device (heater heating method): Johnson Corp. Catalog In-vehicle aroma device (3 scents controlled by microcomputer) ): Toyota Motor Corp. sales catalog Interior fragrance device (with fragrance device built into the interior): Adachi Venture Group (Nikkei Mechanical April 15, 1991, pages 120 to 123) Small deodorant fragrance Ventilator (fragrance using solar cell and small electric fan): Kanematsu Co., Ltd. sales catalog All of these fragrances are electric fans, such as polymer gel impregnated with liquid fragrance. Alternatively, it is intended to cause the scent to drift in the space by being released into the atmosphere by heating. Therefore, fragrances are unique to each fragrance and must be purchased separately. Moreover, the types of fragrances are very limited to several types. As is already known, the likes and dislikes of odors vary greatly depending on life culture, differences in sex, individual differences, etc. Since these fragrances are limited to a few scents that can be used, they cannot fully respond to individual tastes, and when used in a large room, on the contrary, the effect of scents does not relieve stress but creates stress. There is also a possibility.

[0003]

The above-mentioned conventional scent emission device requires a unique emission device for each scent, and since there are many types of fragrance agents, when dealing with multiple types of scents, It has the disadvantage of requiring the preparation of multiple emitters.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The scent emitter of the present invention is
A syringe, means for detachably and substantially horizontally fixing the barrel of the syringe, and means for automatically moving the piston of the syringe in the barrel of the syringe in the injection direction at any time and for any length, The injector is fixed and has an opening / closing means for closing the injection port of the syringe when the piston is not moved in the injection direction and opening the injection port when the piston is moved in the injection direction.

Further, in addition to the above means, when the injection port of the syringe is opened, there is provided means for arranging a tray for the injection product from the syringe below the injection port, and the injection port of the syringe is opened. The scent-ejecting device of the present invention also includes a device having means for dropping the ejected substance from the syringe at a predetermined position.

Is held. FIG. 2 shows an example of such a foldable saucer holder.
It shows the state when it is rotated 0 °. When the foldable tray is rotated 180 ° from the state shown in FIG. 1, the needle plug 17 attached to the foldable tray plugs the tip of the injection port 15 of the syringe 1 and the liquid flavor 2 is not discharged. To do so.

In order to operate the scent-ejecting device shown in FIG. 1, the syringe 1 is removed from the main body, and a herb essential oil of one's liking such as lavender oil is sucked into the syringe in a fixed amount. For example, in the case of a 10 ml syringe, 70-80% of the liquid perfume is sucked into the syringe, then attached to the main body, and the tip of the piston 19 of the syringe is fixed to the rack / pinion gear 4 via the mover 20.

Then, the power source 10 is turned on, and the discharge start button 9
By pressing, the motor 6 rotates for a time preset by the relay operation time adjusting unit 8, this rotation is reduced by the reduction gear 5, and the rack / pinion gear 4 is used to push the piston 19 of the syringe 1. After conversion, the piston 19 of the syringe 1 moves for the motor rotation time, and a certain amount of liquid fragrance is discharged. At this time, the relay operation time adjusting unit 8 is provided so that the amount of the liquid flavor 2 released can be changed. The time setting was from 1 second to 10 seconds, and when using a 10 ml syringe, a discharge volume of 0.05 ml was obtained with a setting of approximately 1 second. This can be set at the design stage by the size of the syringe 1, the reduction gear ratio, and the like. Depending on the place and situation of the release, the release amount of 0.05 to 0.5 ml could be controlled only by adjusting the time. Table 1 shows the set time and duration of the scent when the herb essential oil was released to the foldable saucer 3.
