Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION <Industrial field of application> The present invention relates to an fragrance device which is placed in a room such as a building or an automobile to emit a scent.

<Conventional examples and problems> Conventionally, as this type of aroma device, a packaging bag, box, bottle, or the like of a solid air freshener which is sold in a sealed manner is opened and opened at the time of use and then left alone Those which are designed to diffuse aroma, or JP-A-60-186241 and JP-A-61-161
As shown in No. 48366, a medium impregnated with a volatile fragrance is set in the container, and a piezoelectric vibration plate is attached to the container to promote its volatilization and to guide upward emission. The method of doing is known.

Since these are for diffusing the fragrance once released into the air by volatilization or evaporation as a gas, it is necessary to open the discharge port outside the container as large as possible. However, if the discharge port is wide open, the scent will remain filled in the room for a long time due to the natural release of the fragrance.
An indoor space that should be comfortable often becomes a place of disgust due to excessive fragrance release.

<Means for Solving Problems> The present invention has been proposed in order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and an object thereof is to allow the discharge amount to be freely adjusted and to be natural after the discharge is stopped. It is an object of the present invention to provide an aroma dispenser that can almost completely prevent the release of aroma due to leakage.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an aroma dispenser that has a simple structure and a small number of parts and is easy to manufacture.

Thus, the object of the present invention is to “contain a container having a storage chamber for storing the fragrance, one or more discharge ports formed on the peripheral wall of the storage chamber, and to dispose in the storage chamber in a normal state. In the above, the fragrancer is composed of a bellows diaphragm for blowing air, which is displaced in one direction by spring pressure, and a solenoid for driving the diaphragm.

<Examples> Next, the fragrancer (1) according to the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the examples shown in the drawings.

(2) is a cylindrical container made of plastic or the like, and is composed of two members, a main body part (21) and a cap part (22) which is inserted and attached thereto. Reference numeral (3) is a storage chamber for storing a fragrance, for example, a tablet-shaped solid fragrance (4), and a main body (21) and a cap portion (2) at the time of insertion.
Formed by 2). The aromatic agent (4) is put into the storage chamber (3) or fixed in place by an appropriate supporting member.

Reference numeral (23) is a discharge port formed on the peripheral wall of the storage chamber (3). In this embodiment, one discharge port is formed on the tip end surface of the cap (22), but a plurality of discharge ports are formed or the main body ( It may be formed on the peripheral wall on the 21) side. (5) is a bellows diaphragm for blowing air, and is fixed to the inner wall by a ring-shaped attachment member (51) so as to partition the storage chamber (3) into upper and lower parts in the drawing.

Reference numeral (6) is a driving solenoid fixed in the container (2), and the tip of the plunger (61) is connected to the diaphragm (5). Reference numeral (7) is a return spring, which normally pushes the plunger (61) in a direction to push the diaphragm (5) upward.

(62) is a screw for connecting and fixing, (63) is an exciting coil,
(64) is a bobbin, (65) is a mounting frame, and (8) is a circuit chamber for accommodating a power supply circuit (not shown) for the solenoid (6).

Thus, the power supply circuit incorporates an appropriate switch and pulse voltage oscillation circuit to energize / deenergize the solenoid (6) at an arbitrary interval. As the power source, an appropriate power source such as a battery type with a built-in container, a car cigarette lighter power source, or a household AC power source can be used.

Here, the solenoid (6) is driven to drive the plunger (6
When 1) is slid up and down, the diaphragm (5)
Is swung up and down, so that the storage chamber (3) and the outside air are forced to flow in and out through the discharge port (23). Due to this air flow, the fragrance of the fragrance agent (4) filled in the container is gradually released to the outside world, for example, the interior of the automobile in which the fragrance machine (1) is installed.

Also, when the power is turned off, the solenoid (6) and diaphragm (5) return to the positions shown and stop, so
Air does not enter or leave the discharge port (23) formed by the pores. Therefore, the fragrance is hardly released and leaked to the outside.

Thus, the timing and time for releasing the scent in the room can be arbitrarily controlled only by operating the power switch, so that the discomfort caused by excessive supply can be prevented.

Further, it is a modified embodiment including the present invention that a timer is built in the power supply circuit so that an arbitrary discharge time can be set, the container has a shape other than a cylindrical shape, and the like.

<Effect> According to the fragrancer of the present invention, the discharge amount of aroma can be freely adjusted, and the leakage and emission of aroma can be almost completely prevented after the discharge is stopped.

Further, it has various usefulness such as a simple structure, a small number of parts, and easy manufacture.
