JPH01190993A - Electric fan exhaling aromatic agent - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To enhance a fresh cool feeling by an electric fan enabled to its generated wind to give an optional smell by mounting an aromatic agent to the electric fan. CONSTITUTION:An aromatic agent exhaling device, comprising a guard center part main unit 5 having ventilating holes 6 and an aromatic agent storage part 7 and a ventilating plate 4 having the ventilating holes 6, is formed as a guard center part 1 and provided in a guard center frame 3. While in case of mounting the aromatic agent exhaling device before and after the guard center part 1, a hooking part of shape, able to be hooked to a guard 2, is provided in the aromatic agent exhaling device. While the other mounting method is provided mounting a magnet to at least either the guard center part 1 or the aromatic agent exhaling device and a magnetized metal to the other thus mounting the aromatic agent exhaling device by magnetic force.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention is an electric fan equipped with a fragrance dispersion device.

Conventional electric fans move the surrounding air by rotating their blades, creating a breeze that removes heat, making you feel cool.

For this reason, the air always contains the smell of the room, and when the temperature is quite high, even if you use a fan, you will not feel much freshness or coolness.

However, even though it is hot outside, the natural wind from outside
May cause a cooling sensation.

This is due not only to the effects of humidity and temperature differences, but also to the smell of the wind.

In other words, if you stay in a certain place for a long time, you will get used to the smell of that place and will stop smelling it, but if you are exposed to wind with a different smell, you will become aware of the smell anew and your attention will be directed to the sense of smell. Therefore, the sense of temperature is weakened and the heat is masked, and the user's recollection of the image associated with the smell creates a feeling of coolness.

In addition, in recent years, the psychological and physiological effects of smells have been attracting attention, so it is thought that the smells themselves have effects as well.

In light of the above, the present invention aims to provide a refreshing feeling (rather than coolness) to the wind generated by an electric fan used indoors.

The present invention is an air freshener emitting fan which is characterized by having an air freshener emitting fan separated by one inch.

Examples of the present invention will be described below.

As shown in Figure 1, a general electric fan has a guard (2) that has a guard center (1) around the rotating blades, and the guard (2) includes a motor part (10) and a pillar (8) that supports them.
) and a stand (9).

First, it depends on where you install the air freshener emitting device.
Decide how to remove the fragrance emitting device.

There are then various types of fragrance emitting devices and fragrances that are suitable.

And they use already known fragrance emitting devices and fragrances.

Example 1: When attaching an aromatic agent dispersion device to the center part (1) of the guard.

In this case, there are those that can be attached to the center of the guard (1) and also have the function of a guard, and those that can be installed before and after the center of the guard (1).

The simplest embodiment of the guard center (1) and the rest will now be described.

As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the ventilation hole (6) and the air freshener storage area (
7) a guard center body (5) having a vent hole (6);
An aromatic agent dispersion device consisting of an air vent Fi (4) having a structure is provided as a guard center part (1) within a guard center frame (3).

Also, if you use a liquid fragrance, put a vent in the top and cover the vent with a porous crotch or liquid-absorbing material.

The guard center main body (5) and the ventilation Fi (4) are connected by a screw type or a removable method as shown in Fig. 3 so that the fragrance can be replaced.

How to use: Open the air freshener storage area (5) in the center body of the guard (5).
Put the air freshener into 7) and cover with the ventilation plate (4).

Next, there is a case where the fragrance emitting device can be installed in front and behind the center part (1) of the guard.

In particular, when a commercially available electric fan of 112mm is available, a hook shaped like a guard (2) is provided on the air freshener dispersion device.

In addition, if the hook part is made of a material that can be bent freely, such as wire, even if the ventilation hole of the guard (2) is small, the hook can be hooked by passing the part through the ventilation hole X2 and bending it. becomes possible.

In addition, the method for installing the pond is at the center of the guard (1).
Or, if the air freshener is to be released, a magnet can be attached to at least one side of the device by a magnetized metal on the other side, and the device can be attached by magnetic force, or it can be attached and removed using screws, clips, suction cups, etc. There are two ways to remove the device: one is to secure the air freshener emitting device with adhesive, and the other is to store it away.

The advantage of placing the fragrance dispersion device in this position is that it is located in the center and in front of the rotating blades, so it is easy to dissipate the scent into the wind itself.

Example 2: When guard (2) excluding guard center (1) is removed by 1 inch.

For attachment, the method described in Example 1 is used.

In particular, if the air freshener dispersion device is located on the circular circumference formed by the guard (2) or on the back side of the blade (2), the air freshener dispersion device will not become an obstruction to the wind. Unlike the pond embodiment, which is directly exposed to the wind, the wind force applied to the air freshener dispersion device is small, so it can be easily installed.

Embodiment 3 - When installing an aromatic agent dispersion device around the motor part (10).

Embodiment 4: A case in which an air freshener dispersion device is installed on the support post (8) of the electric fan by 1 inch.

Example 5: When attaching an air freshener dispersion device to the electric fan stand (9).

In Examples 3 and 4.5, compared to Example 1.2, the fragrance dispersion device is located in a place where it is difficult to impart odor to the wind itself.

In such cases, a fragrance dispersion device that electrically or mechanically dissipates the fragrance or adjusts the amount of emission is installed in the fan design, or a sprayer or other atomizer is used to control the air flow itself. It is effective to be able to apply scent effectively.

Example 6 - A recently developed aromatic plastic using cyclodextrin is used instead of an air freshener, or a deodorizer, deodorant, or moisture absorbent is used instead of an air freshener.

(Effect of the invention) According to the present invention, the wind generated by the electric fan If, :! It is possible to give the smell of i:became.

As a result, the following effects were produced.

If you stay in one place for a long time, you will become accustomed to the smell of that place and will no longer be conscious of it.

In such a case: 2. By applying an arbitrary scent to the wind using the present invention, it is possible to make the user newly aware of a different scent.

Therefore, note E is directed toward the sense of smell and the sense of temperature is weakened, creating the effect of dispelling the heat, and also increasing the feeling of coolness due to the image effect evoked by the scent of the air freshener selected by the user. This resulted in a significant effect.

Moreover, if the smell permeates the area due to continuous use of the present invention and the person becomes accustomed to the smell, it is necessary to change the fragrance.

This problem can be solved by making the fragrance emitting device and fragrance easily replaceable.

Therefore, this m1 problem was able to add the fun of choosing an air freshener to the electric fan, and transform the electric fan from a mere machine that generates wind to a toy for enjoying scents.

In addition, in recent years, the psychological and physiological effects of scent have attracted attention, and products using fragrances that claim to have sleep-inducing, awakening, and sedative effects have become available. By using an effective fragrance or a refreshing fragrance, you can further enhance the refreshing feeling and relieve the discomfort caused by the heat.

Based on the above, the present invention can provide an electric fan with effects that conventional electric fans do not have at a low cost and in a simple way. We were able to increase the utility value.
