Related Prior Application

This application claims the priority of US Provisional Application No. 60 / 541,067, filed February 3, 2004.

The present invention is directed to providing an integrated presentation to the surrounding environment. In particular, the present invention relates to controlled and controlled spinning of light and volatile active ingredients, such as fragrances, into a given area in a single device.

Due to the wide variety of shapes and specifications as well as the infinite number of fragrances that are visible, they are not often used as versatile when setting the atmosphere in an area, such as scented candles. However, the scented candle is not without its drawbacks. For example, falling wax can damage furniture and body skin, and in severe cases an open flame can cause dry fires.

In order to solve the common problems associated with candles, electronic lighting devices having a flickering appearance of candles as disclosed in US Pat. Nos. 5,013,972 and 6,066,924 have been known in the art. In US Pat. No. 5,013,972, two adjacent lamps are turned on and turned off at a frequency at which blinking is perceived. Similarly, U. S. Patent No. 6,066, 924 discloses a circuit used to flicker control two adjacent light bulbs. In addition, the circuits and bulbs of US Pat. No. 6,066,924 are housed in a container of a size and shape similar to a common planar candle. While these patents may suggest devices that mimic the visual appearance of candles, they do not provide a scented candle experience. In other words, it failed to emit fragrance with light.

Fragrance dispensers are also commonly known. For example, it is known to emit fragrance from an aerosol container upon triggering by a user. In addition, other methods utilize the vaporization properties of liquids or other vaporizable materials to allow vapor with desired properties to be distributed to the ambient air. For example, US Pat. No. 4,413,779 discloses a glass container containing a fluid with two rigid porous nylon wicks extending therefrom. The wick is in contact with a rigid plastic porous element. In use, the wick transfers fluid from the glass vessel to ambient air. As another example of a fragrance, the technique of a nebulizer assembly is also known for releasing fragrance from the wick which draws the fragrance liquid out of the reservoir. Generally assigned US Patent No. 6,296,196 and generally assigned and pending Application No. 10 / 412,911, filed April 14, 2003, disclose such assemblies, the techniques are described in detail below. US Patent No. 6,296,196 and US Patent Application No. 10 / 412,911 are described herein by reference. Although their representative devices provide fragrance emission, they do not provide a visual appearance of candles.
European Patent Publication No. 1281406 (February 05, 2003), published before the present application, is filled with a fragrance-containing material and has a hollow container having a central orifice, and its upper surface having a base member and having electrical connection means is a candle. And the base member adapted to receive the light bulb such that the light bulb is designed to protrude upwardly from the top surface, wherein the hollow container is supported by the top surface of the base member. While the light bulb is known to have a fragrance-releasing device housed in a central orifice, the appliance must use a light bulb that emits appreciable heat and disperse the volatiles into the air. Because it uses heat to make it work, it's not arranged to allow airflow across the container, No description is given of the openings to allow air flow across the vessel.

The present invention provides a device for emitting light and fragrance (or other active ingredients) similar to scented candles. In particular, the present invention relates to an improved candle using a unique design that combines the flameless flickering effect with an effective and reliable volatile active ingredient delivery system.

In particular, in one aspect of the invention, a flameless candle emitting volatile active ingredient comprises at least one light emitting diode, a cartridge mount and a support structure. At least one light emitting diode emits blinking light that mimics the flame of a candle. The cartridge compartment houses and holds a receptacle cartridge containing volatile active ingredients that will be released to the atmosphere for time. The support structure supports at least one light emitting diode and a cartridge mount. The support structure is configured to allow air to flow across the replaceable cartridge when the replaceable cartridge is mounted in the cartridge mount.

According to another aspect of the invention, a flameless lighting device comprises at least one light emitting diode, a receptacle, control circuitry and a housing. At least one light emitting diode emits blinking light that mimics the flame of a candle. The receptacle houses one or more batteries that provide power to at least one light emitting diode. The control circuitry includes at least one current source controller and a charge pump, the current source controller controls the current supplied to the at least one light emitting diode, and the charge pump at least when the voltage provided by the at least one battery falls below a set minimum voltage. It provides a forward voltage set to one light emitting diode. At least one light emitting diode, receptacle and control circuitry are disposed within the housing.

According to another aspect of the invention, a flameless lighting device for emitting volatile active ingredients comprises at least one light emitting diode, a housing and a mount. At least one light emitting diode emits blinking light that mimics the flame of a candle. The housing includes a light diffuser. At least one light emitting diode is housed in the housing so that light emitted from the light emitting diode is diffused by the light diffusing portion. The mount is disposed within the housing and is equipped with a replaceable cartridge containing volatile active ingredients. The housing includes a first opening and a second opening. When the receptacle cartridge is mounted on the mount, the first opening allows air to enter the housing and flow across the receptacle cartridge, and when the receptacle cartridge is mounted on the mount, the second opening crosses the receptacle cartridge Allow flowing air to exit the housing.

The present invention provides a device for emitting light and aromas. Preferably, the present invention provides a single device that mimics the visual and olfactory appearance of a scented candle, with no open flame but with an improved scent release system.

While preferred embodiments of the present invention include the emission of fragrances and many of the descriptions below relate to fragrances, the inventors have envisioned that the dispenser of the present invention may alternately distribute other volatile active ingredients. Such alternating volatile active ingredients can include, for example, disinfectants, fungicides, insecticides, insect repellents, pharmaceuticals and other active mixtures that are usefully dispersed into the air. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, other volatile active ingredients may also enter the environment through the dispenser in the same way as the fragrances.

As generally shown in the figures, a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a device for emitting light and fragrance. The device preferably includes an electrically actuated light source, a fragrance emitter, a power source, control circuitry and a support structure. All these elements work together to give the fragrance of fragrance and flickering flames, and the flicker effect is provided by an electrically actuated light source.

Light source

The light source of the present invention is an electrically operated light emitting device. The light source may comprise a number of common lighting devices (including, for example, incandescent, halogen, fluorescent, etc.), while in a preferred device, the light source comprises one or more light emitting diodes (light emitting diodes). In particular, as shown in FIGS. 7A-7C, the light source preferably comprises two light emitting diodes 252a, 252b.

The light emitting diode emits light of a high wavelength or a very narrow range of wavelengths (for simplicity, referring to the high wavelength of the light emitting diode, which term should be interpreted to include a narrow range of wavelengths). For example, a blue light emitting diode will emit high wavelength light in the blue region of the color spectrum. Such high wavelengths are not substantially controllable for a given light emitting diode (although high wavelengths and intensities may vary somewhat with temperature variations, for example). However, the light intensity can be controlled for a given light emitting diode. For example, the light emitting diodes can be controlled by varying the applied current to change the intensity of the high wavelength light of the light emitting diodes. This can be done by a number of means; However, pulse width modulation (PWM) is preferred. Preferably, the controller receives commands from a memory or an external source with respect to the operation of the light emitting diodes. With pulse width modulation, the controller sets a duty cycle for each light emitting diode, thus defining the on time and off time of the light emitting diode. During the on time, for example during the pulse width, current is supplied to the light emitting diodes, which emit light. Therefore, changing the pulse width changes the amount of time that the light emitting diode emits light. Thus, the diode blinks as the duty cycle repeats over time. This repetition occurs at a relatively high frequency, and the diode's on and off cannot be detected by the observer. The light will therefore be perceived as being constantly radiated by the viewer. The flicker effect can be achieved by changing the duty cycle over time to increase and decrease the intensity of the emitted light. Alternatively, if the on time and off time of the diode are noticeable to the observer, the frequency of the duty cycle may be relatively low. When the flicker effect can be achieved, thus flickering is provided, of course, a combination of these flickering methods is also possible, thus the time it takes to reach full intensity (eg heating the filament in an incandescent bulb). And better control than conventional light that cannot be suddenly turned on and off by the time it takes to stop light emission (e.g., wait until the filament cools down). When using pulse width modulation to control, substantially constant intensity light It will be known to those skilled in the art that both flickering light and flickering light may be flickering at high frequencies that the observer cannot perceive, so flickering constant intensity light should be referred to as an effect understood herein. .)

Instead of changing the duty cycle, the controller can alternatively adjust the current supply method, thus changing the light emitting characteristics of the light emitting diodes, for example methods using analog sine curves or digital potentiometers are generally known in the art. Known,

As a result, during light emitting diode illumination, the observer will observe the color corresponding to the high frequency for the light emitting diode, and the change in pulse width will have a dimming effect. It is known in the art, and therefore will not be described in more detail, other methods of operating light emitting diodes are also known, the use of which will be apparent to those skilled in the art.

When two light emitting diodes are used, as in FIGS. 7A-7C, the two light emitting diodes 252a, 252b are preferably arranged one over the other, ie, the light emitting diode 252a emits light and fragrance. On a portion of the light emitting diode 252b facing the base of the device 200, preferably the top light emitting diode 252a emits light at a controlled intensity that changes in perceivable intermittent and / or intensity, For example, the pulse width of a light emitting diode can be adjusted over time to change the perceived intensity or to provide a perceived intermittent on and off time for the light emitting diode, thus a constant (perceived) change in intensity. Flicker can be obtained by providing light emission, by providing (perceived) intermittent light emission, or by a combination of the two, unlike top light emitting diode 252a. In turn, the lower light emitting diode 252b is controlled to be perceived to emit light substantially continuously or to be light of substantially constant intensity, this "continuous" light may be the result of a constant current supplied to the light emitting diode, This may be the result of providing a substantially constant pulse width over time, which when viewed from a light emitting diode provides a perception of light to the observer. Alternatively, the pulse width can be adjusted somewhat over time to provide a fine change in intensity. do,

In this way, the light emitting diodes 252a and 252b act to produce a faint effect, for example, when the general candle glows, the farther away from the base of the wick, the part of the flame flickers more clearly, while The basis seems substantially stable, this arrangement of light emitting diodes 252a, 252b mimics this visual characteristic, it is preferable that light emitting diodes of yellow or amber color are used, in particular the light emitting diodes used It is desirable to have an emission wavelength in the range of about 580 nanometers to about 600 nanometers, and more preferably, the light emitting diode used has an emission wavelength in the range of about 585 nanometers to about 595 nanometers.

Of course, modifications to the light source of the preferred embodiment are contemplated, for example a single light emitting diode controlled to have varying intensity and / or perceived intermittence may be used, thereby providing a flickering effect. The device using is obtained with the result of a low cost device using less power. Alternatively, two or more light emitting diodes can be used, possibly recognizing a larger flame, and many colored light emitting diodes are also known, Many colors of light emitting diodes can be used, for example, red, green and blue light emitting diodes (ie, red, green and / or yellowish to make them more similar to a flame). Color can be changed by using an array of red, green, and blue light emitting diodes). By modifying the arrangement as well as the type of light emitting diodes used, many flavors can be obtained, including altered color show, color, flame and color flicker. As indicated, the brightness of the light may also be reduced or increased,

Also, when multiple light emitting diodes are used, it is not necessary for one light emitting diode to provide substantially constant intensity light, while another light emitting diode provides a blinking effect, while one or two light emitting diodes are substantially It can be maintained at a constant intensity, and one or two light emitting diodes emit flashing light.

Fragrance thrower

Preferably the fragrance spinner is provided integrally with the present invention, preferably the fragrance spinner comprises a replaceable container having a fragrance of any one of a number of common forms including gel and liquid forms, such gels and In liquid form, the fragrance is generally mixed with the carrier material by, for example, injection, intermixing, coating, dissolving or other means. The fragrance and carrier are then for example a cartridge, a pouch, a blade, Contained in a container such as a reservoir, the container is formed so as to permeate a portion of the fragrance, for example, when air passes through, the fragrance may emanate through the permeable portion, or the fragrance may be vaporized by application of heat. And emanate from the container, in this case, the dispenser changes the rate at which volatility is released from the container. Is the control, and may have a possible heating apparatus, or (such as the shield or fan), a mechanical controller for controlling the air flow in the air freshener close to be vaporized in order to have groups,

Another type of fragrance emitter is a wick-based emitter, in which the fragrance liquid is sucked out of the container, such as a reservoir, by capillary action and dispersed into the atmosphere. In addition, the fragrance dispenser is for releasing fragrance from the wick. Can use a nebulizer.

In particular, the nebulizer-type fragrance dispenser uses a wick to draw the aroma liquid from the reservoir, the penetrating orifice plate is arranged in contact with the wick, preferably for example an actuator element made of piezoelectric ceramic material Is connected to the orifice plate, the actuator element is preferably annular in shape, and the orifice is preferably circular. A power source in the form of a high frequency alternating voltage is applied to the opposing upper and lower portions of the actuator element to generate an electric field across the actuator element. This electric field expands and contracts the actuator radially, which bends the orifice plate so that its central region of the orifice plate vibrates up and down. As a result of this vibration, the liquid passes through the orifice of the orifice plate and It is discharged from the orifice plate in the form of a drop.

A more detailed description of this type of spraying device can be found in commonly assigned Pending U.S. Patent Application No. 10 / 412,911, filed April 14,2003, which was described above. In addition, a more detailed description of the support structure for the spray device can be found in commonly assigned US patent application Ser. No. 10 / 241,215, filed Nov. 26, 2002. The technical content of US patent application Ser. No. 10 / 241,215 is also described herein by reference.

Of course, other fragrance spinning devices may be replaced as desired in view of design choices, manufacturing costs, and the like. In addition, vibrations within each kind of dispenser are possible as will be appreciated by those skilled in the art.

Power source

The power source is powered by the light source and, if necessary, by the fragrance emitter to assist in the release of the fragrance. For example, the power supply will supply voltage to the top and bottom surfaces of the actuator in the fragrance dispenser in the spray form described above. In addition, a power source can be used to operate additional elements, for example a fan or a heater.

In a preferred embodiment, the power source comprises one or more batteries. When one battery is used, a voltage set-up or charge pump (described in more detail below) can be used to ensure that the component is supplied with sufficient power. The batteries are replaceable or rechargeable. If a rechargeable battery is used, the batteries can be removed for charging or an adapter can be installed on the device so that the batteries can be charged without being removed from the device. For example, a receptacle may be coupled into the device to receive a plug that powers from an electrical output stage.

However, it is not required that the power source comprises a battery. For example, power for the device can be drawn directly from the electrical output stage. However, as will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the use of an AC power source may require an apparatus further comprising an AC / DC converter.

Control Circuit

As used throughout this specification, the term “control circuitry” is intended to represent a term that includes all controls that can be used to implement the present invention. For example, the preferred embodiment is described below with reference to a microcontroller and / or a circuit board constituting the control circuit portion. Another contemplated example of control circuitry that may be used to implement the present invention is an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a microprocessor, and an arrangement of one or more registers and / or capacitors. The control circuitry may or may not include software. However, these examples of the control circuit portion are not limited. Other control circuitry may also be used.

The control circuitry is generally used to control the operation of the device and is powered by a battery. In particular, the control circuitry is designed to provide a signal to control the operation of the light source. When one or more light emitting diodes are provided as a light source, the microcontroller can change the duty cycle of the light emitting diodes to control the perceived intensity of the emitted light, thereby producing a flickering effect such as seconds.

When at least two light emitting diodes are used and when one light emitting diode receives a constant current and emits light which is perceived to be substantially constant in intensity, the light emitting diode can be controlled separately from the circuit board when the device is "on". However, it does not receive power when powered from a power source or when the device is "off". In other words, when one light emitting diode emits light of constant intensity, it is not necessary to provide a means for pulse width control within its duty cycle (such as a microcontroller). In this case, the microcontroller can adjust the operation of only the blinking LED. In another embodiment, the constant emission LED may be controlled by pulse width modulation set by the controller such that the frequency of the pulse width is not noticeable to the viewer. In this way, the intensity of a given light emitting diode can vary somewhat, adding to the overall blink indication.

In addition, when a fragrance dispenser including a nebulizer is used, the control circuitry may include circuitry for converting power from the battery into high frequency alternating voltages required for expansion and contraction of the actuator member, whereby the fragrance dispenser from the fragrance dispenser Emanates. In addition, the microcontroller can control the fan, heating means and the like to help the dispersion of the fragrance. Moreover, the microcontroller may include a control for automatically "on" and / or "off" one or both of the light source and the fragrance dispenser. For example, a timer may be included and some or all of the elements will be blocked as the set time elapses.

The circuit controller can also perform other functions. For example, batteries are used as a power source and it may be desirable to integrate a charge pump. As will be appreciated, the light emitting diodes require a forward voltage to operate. While this forward voltage may vary depending on, for example, the color of light emitted by the light emitting diodes, preferred light emitting diodes used with the present invention require any voltage between about 1.8 volts and about 2.5 volts as the forward voltage. It may, but generally requires a voltage in the range of about 2.0 volts to about 2.1 volts. When the voltage supplied by the battery decreases below the forward voltage for a time, the charge pump ensures that the supply voltage to the light emitting diode exceeds the forward voltage of the light emitting diode. The charge pump uses one or more capacitors to store power to generate a voltage level greater than the voltage level supplied by the battery. Thus, the charge pump can raise the voltage level to a greater than forward voltage. In this way, the light emitting diode will continue to operate even if the batteries are depleted until the battery outputs a low voltage. As a result, a single set of batteries can drive the device for a longer period of time than if no charge pump was used.

In addition, the control circuitry may incorporate a constant current source, which ensures that a constant current is applied to the light emitting diodes regardless of the battery voltage. Otherwise, the high voltage and the corresponding light emitting diode current will be supplied at the beginning of battery life, which will be as weak as the battery is used. This allows the observer to notice brighter flicker when a new set of batteries is installed and has a weakening intensity when the battery output decreases to or below forward voltage at the time the charge pump is operating. Thus, by providing a constant current source, the light emitting diodes can emit light with a constant intensity over time, which prevents significant blurring when the battery begins to lose power. However, when the charge pump is used, current is not constantly supplied to the light emitting diodes. Power must be provided through the charge pump by nature intermittent because there must be a time interval while the charge pump is charging. Therefore, when the charge pump is in operation, no constant current is supplied to the light emitting diode, so the constant current source will not work properly.

However, it is possible to supply the average constant current to the light emitting diode via the average constant current source. In the average constant current source, current is supplied during one portion of the cycle to achieve the same average current as the constant current that will be provided differently during the cycle. In particular, when a constant current source supplies a constant current to each of the two light emitting diodes, the average constant current source is (i) the period (the period is set based on the preferred design aspect and is in line with the duty cycle mentioned in relation to the light intensity modulation of the light emitting diodes). Supplying a current (generally constant) to the first light emitting diode during one part of the period, and (ii) supplying a current (generally constant) to the second light emitting diode during the other part of the period, Do not supply current to the light emitting diodes. For example, when two light emitting diodes are provided, the constant current source supplies, for example, a constant current of 15 mA to the first light emitting diode, and when the light emitting diode is an enabled LED, a current of 15 mA is emitted to the second light emitting diode. However, for example, the average constant current source may supply 45 mA of current to the first light emitting diode for one third of the period, and 45 mA of current to the second light emitting diode for another third of the period. No current is supplied during the last one-third of the period, alternatively, during two-thirds of the period during which the light-emitting diode is enabled, the light-emitting diode is enabled immediately after charging since the voltage may be somewhat reduced. It will appear somewhat darker than the light-emitting diodes, therefore, an alternative period for driving the light-emitting diodes is in turn the first 1/6, the first light-emitting diodes in which the light-emitting diodes are not enabled. Second 1/6 with diode enabled, third 1/6 with second light emitting diode enabled, fourth 1/6 with no light emitting diode enabled, fifth 1 / with second light emitting diode enabled 6 and a first 1/6 with the first light emitting diode enabled, in this method, the first light emitting diode is enabled immediately after the half charge time and the second light emitting diode is turned on immediately after the other half charge time. Thus, in both examples, the average current supplied to the light emitting diodes is equal to the current provided by the constant current source; however, no current is provided to the light emitting diodes during the portion of the period, and thus the time for operating the charge pump. As a result, there is no change in operation since the charge time is already a dedicated portion of the cycle when the charge pump is operated. This, must be high enough to have the period used by the mean frequency current source, which will be appreciated by emitting light to the light emitting diode constant (or, as described above, by emitting the perceived flicker).

Many combinations of one or more charge pumps, constant current sources, average constant current sources can be used. For example, a constant current source can be used until the time the charge pump is operated, and then an average constant current source can be used. For convenience, the term "current source controller" will be used herein to refer to a mechanism for providing a constant current or an average constant current. This may consist of a constant current source, an average constant current source, or a combination thereof.

The control circuitry may include a control for shutting off the device when the battery falls below a certain voltage. In this way, the device will not continue to draw power from the spent battery, thus reducing the risk of battery acid leaking out of the battery. In addition, the control circuitry can be designed in conjunction with the detector and / or switch to allow only the operation of the light emitting diode when the fragrance emitter is placed in the device

Support structure

The invention also includes a support structure provided for supporting the light source, the fragrance emitter, the power source and the control circuitry or some combination thereof. The term "supporting structure" is intended to include some and all of the chassis, housing, holder and base, such as terms used in the description of the preferred embodiment, as well as similar structures used to support or incorporate the features of the present invention. It became.

desirable Examples

Preferred embodiments of the light and mass emission device according to the present invention will be described. These preferred embodiments include not only the components described above, but also various new devices of additional features.

A first embodiment of the present invention is described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6.

According to a preferred embodiment, the chassis 102 is provided. As shown, chassis 102 includes chassis base 102b and chassis column 102a formed on chassis base 102b. Chassis base 102b and chassis column 102a may be integrally formed or may be formed as separate attachable pieces. Chassis 102 may also include additional elements. For example, one or more pit 102c may be suspended from chassis base 102b, which may be attached to or formed integrally with chassis base 102b. Additionally, as shown in FIG. 1, one or more slotted openings, or slots 114, are formed through the chassis base 102. As shown, the slot 114 is preferably arcuate and includes a wide portion 114a and a narrow portion 114b. Slot 114 will be described in more detail below.

The fragrance emitter 104, the light emitting tip 106, the coke 108, the two batteries 110 and the controller 112 are preferably disposed on the chassis 102. The battery 110 is preferably removable and detachable from the chassis 102 so that the battery can be replaced and / or charged as needed. The controller 112 preferably includes a printed circuit board 116, a controller 118 (eg, ASIC, microcontroller, etc.) and two switches 120, 122, which are operated from a battery for operation of the device. It works in relation to the power supplied.

In this embodiment, the fragrance emitter 104 is preferably a replaceable fragrance cartridge 104a, which may be removably secured to a cartridge mount disposed on the chassis 102. The perfume cartridge 104a used in this embodiment is preferably a passive scent emitter. More particularly, releasable fragrances are preferably contained in gels or liquids and are spun into air for hours. Thus, the fragrance is radiated as a result of the air flow through the cartridge 104a, and no power is required to radiate the fragrance into the air. However, as described above, devices such as fans or heaters may also be used with the present invention to increase the rate at which the fragrance is emitted.

As shown in FIG. 2, in the present embodiment, the preferred cartridge 104a is formed with a substantially U-shaped opening 126 therethrough and a projection 124 having a chassis column 102a disposed on or integrally formed thereon. And a post 128 that acts as a cartridge mount. An opening 126 and a post formed on the cartridge 104a are designed so that the post fits within the opening, thereby attaching the perfume cartridge 104a to the chassis 102. In this embodiment, the cartridge 104a is introduced into the chassis 102 and removed from the chassis through an opening formed through the base of the chassis base 102b (this opening also removes air flow around the cartridge 104a). To help release the fragrance, as will be explained in more detail later). Thus, the opening on the cartridge 104a snaps into and out of the post 128.

Of course, alternative methods are contemplated for securing / removing perfume cartridge 104a to / from chassis 102. For example, cartridge 104a may be attached and removed at one side of chassis 102, in which case U-shaped opening 126 may not be required. Instead, a circular opening may be sufficient to receive the post 128 therein. In addition, an opening for the post may not be provided at all. For example, the chassis 102 and cartridge 104a may be designed such that a fit is formed between both members such that the cartridge 104a is secured to the chassis 102. These examples are given by way of example only. Various cartridge mounts and cartridge configurations are contemplated and are also known to those skilled in the art. The present invention contemplates any means by which detachable fragrance emitters can be removably attached to the chassis. Preferably, the present invention will include a mechanism for snapping and holding the cartridge.

As another feature of this embodiment, means for sensing the presence of the fragrance emitter 104 is provided. For example, the device can be controlled so that the light emitting diode will emit light only when the fragrance emitter 104 is attached. As shown in FIG. 3, a cartridge sensor switch 122 is disposed on the chassis 102. For example, the cartridge sensor switch 122 is operable between a normal position and an operating position, and the light emitting diode will only emit light when the cartridge sensor switch 122 is in the operating state. Thus, in this embodiment, when the fragrance cartridge 104a is attached to the chassis 102, a portion of the cartridge 104a will contact the cartridge detector switch 122, so that the cartridge detector switch operates. This mechanical switch is provided only as an example. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other types of switches and / or sensors may similarly be used to detect the presence of the fragrance cartridge 104a.

Tip 106 is preferably disposed on top of chassis column 102a and a light source is disposed therein. As described above, preferably, two light emitting diodes are disposed one over the other within the tip 106. Light emitted from the light emitting diode is diffused by the tip 106 and transmitted through the tip 106. As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, the tip 106 is a separate element of the device and is disposed within the bore 130 formed on top of the chassis 102. Tip 106 may also be integrally formed with chassis 102. However, by making the tip 106 from a separate member, the tip 106 can be replaced, for example, with a differently configured or cooled tip. In addition, the individual tips 106 may be made of a material different from the material used for the chassis 106. Preferably the tip 106 may be made of at least one of plastic, glass, wax, and the like. Additionally, tip 106 may be made of a material that emits light continuously for a time after the luminous material or light emitting diode is turned off.

In this embodiment, the coke 108 is preferably disposed on top of the chassis 102. While shown as separate elements, the coke 108 also includes a portion of the chassis 102. The coke 108 has an opening formed in the axial direction through its center, and a portion of the tip 106 is preferably disposed in the opening. The coke 108 is preferably operable with respect to the chassis 102. Preferably, the user operates the coke 106 from the home position to turn on and off the light emitting diodes. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, the coke 106 may have one or more branches 132, which branches extend downward from the coke, and the lip 134 is each branch 132. Extend outwards at the distal end of; A spring 136 is disposed between the chassis 102 and the coke 108 to bias the coke 108 away from the chassis 102. As shown in FIG. 6, a plurality of branch receiving bores 138 (one on each branch 132) are formed on top of the chassis 102, each bore 138 having a shoulder 140. The branches 132 of the coke 108 are received in the bore 138, and the lip 134 of each branch 132 contacts the shoulder 140 to maintain attachment of the coke 108 to the chassis 102. . Thus, when the coke 108 operates downward against the bias of the spring 136, the branches 132 slide down in the bore 138. When pressure is released on the coke 108, the bias of the spring 136 returns the coke 108 to its normal or resting position. The on / off switch is preferably placed under one of the branches 132, and the operation of the coke 108 is such that one of the branches 132 activates the on / off switch 120 so that the light emitting diode is turned on. Control to turn on and off.

The device shown in FIG. 1 and described up to this point is a single device 100, which emits flashing light and fragrance. While this device can be used as a stand alone device, it is preferably used with the holder 141 as shown in FIGS. 4, 5 and 6.

Preferred holder 141 includes an inner shell 142 and an outer shell 144. The inner shell 142 is preferably generally cylindrical and has an open bottom and an opening 143 formed centrally through the top thereof. When the holder 141 is lowered onto the single device 100, the tip 106 passes through the opening 143, and the top bottom of the inner shell 142 contacts the coke 108. In this way, the holder 141 is rotatable relative to a single device, ie the inner shell 142 (and the rest of the holder 141) rotates about the coke 108 while the single device remains stationary. Keep it.

In addition, one or more protrusions 148 extend radially outward from an extension 147 suspended downward from the bottom end of the inner shell 142. When the holder 14 is located within a single device 100, the protrusion 148 is sized to pass through the wide portion 114a of the slot 114 formed in the chassis base 102b, but the narrow portion of the slot 114. 114b will not pass. However, the thickness of extension 147 is smaller than the width of wide portion 114a and narrow portion 114b of slot 114. Thus, the holder 141 is attachable to and removable from the single device 100 only when the protrusion 148 is aligned with the wide portion 114a of the slot 114. As such, when the holder 141 is lowered completely into the single device 100, the protrusion 148 is located below the chassis base 102b so that the extension 147 is disposed in the slot 114. The holder 141 can thus freely rotate relative to the single device 100, the rotation of which is limited by the slot 114.

The outer shell 144 is preferably made of a material through which light emitted by the light emitting diodes is transmitted. For example, the outer shell 144 is made of glass, plastic or wax. In addition, the outer shell 144 may diffuse light emitted by the light emitting diodes. This diffusion may be added to the diffusion made by the tip 106, or the tip 106 may not diffuse (or may not be included) the emitted light, and only the outer shell 144 diffuses the light. Let's do it. The outer shell 144 can also be made in a variety of colors and can form a variety of colors, patterns, patterns, etc. according to the desired appearance.

The inner shell 146 and the outer shell 144 may be formed as a single holder 141 or may be separate elements assembled after manufacture. In addition, the holder 141 may include a base 146. The base may be purely decorative or may be used as a means for securing the inner shell 146 and the outer shell 144 together. As will be appreciated, when the holder 141 is located within the single device 100, the downward actuation of the holder 141 is because the top of the inner shell 142 is in contact with the operable cola 108. Resulting in downward actuation of 108, and thus, as described above, the light emitting diodes are turned on and off.

As can be seen in the figure, when the holder 141 is located within a single device 100, the inner shell 142 and the chassis base 102b are deodorant cartridge 104a, battery 100 and control 112. It defines a substantially enclosed cavity in which is disposed. Tip 106 extends downward from the substantially enclosed cavity through central opening 143 in inner shell 142. However, as described above, the preferred scent emitter 106 is a passive release system that requires an air flow across it to release the fragrance into the air. Therefore, it is necessary to allow the air flow through the cavity to cross the fragrance cartridge 104a. In a preferred embodiment, this air flow is through convection. In particular, the openings are formed through the top and bottom of the substantially enclosed cavity. As described above, the opening into which the fragrance cartridge 104a is inserted and removed is formed through the chassis base 102b. Additionally, as shown in the figure, the cola opening 109 is formed by the cola 108. Is formed through to allow the passage of air, and the exhaust opening 150 is formed through the top of the inner shell 142. Thus, a portion of the cola opening 109 is aligned with a portion of the exhaust opening 150. When formed, a passageway is formed through which air can flow between the interior cavity substantially enclosed by the surrounding environment, and, as will be appreciated, the coke opening 109 facing the overlapped exhaust opening 150 somewhat. Rotation of the holder 141 relative to a single device, i.e., rotation of the holder 141 in the slot 114, controls the flow of air through the coke opening 109 and the exhaust opening 150 by exposure. Through, the chassis base (102b) The ambient air enters the device preferably through the formed openings and exits through the coke openings 109 and the exhaust openings 150.

Preferred light and fragrance emitting devices are described. Of course, variations of this embodiment are contemplated. For example, providing differently patterned openings, more openings and / or wider or narrower openings can alter the air flow through the device. For example, a hole may be provided through the side of the inner shell 142 of the holder in addition to or instead of the exhaust hole 150 provided at the top of the inner shell 142. Also, the coke openings and / or exhaust holes 150 may be wider or narrower.

Additionally, while the cola 108 is described as being movable up and down relative to the chassis 102 to turn on and off the light emitting diodes, the coke 108 may alternatively have a chassis to turn on and off the light emitting diodes. It may be rotatable relative to 102. Alternatively, the coke 108 may not be typically operated, and a switch may be installed outside of the device to turn on and off the light emitting diodes. Additional switches may be provided to control the lighting characteristics of the device. For example, a switch may be provided to switch between different light show or other color light emitting diodes.

A second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 7A to 7C, 8 and 9. This embodiment includes features similar to those discussed above with respect to the first embodiment, which will not be repeated herein. However, in this embodiment, the fragrance emitter preferably comprises a nebulizer rather than a manual release system.

In this embodiment, the preferred light and material radiating device 200 of the present invention comprises a chassis 202 comprising a chassis cover 202a and a chassis base 202b, which together are two light emitting diodes 252a, 252b. ), A cavity surrounding a printed circuit board having a fragrance emitter 204, two batteries 210 and a microcontroller 218. The light emitting diodes 252a and 252b are directly or indirectly connected to the two batteries 210 and the microcontroller 218. As described above, the fragrance emitter 204 of this embodiment preferably includes a nebulizer assembly 205. The alignment of the fragrance radiator 204, the battery 210 and the microcontroller 218 in the chassis 202 is not critical, and each of these elements is preferably located below the top surface of the chassis cover 202a. . In addition, the light emitting diodes 252a, 252b are preferably located substantially centrally with respect to the top surface of the device and are above the fragrance radiator 204, the battery 210 and the microcontroller 218, ie the chassis base 202b. On the side of the fragrance emitter 204, the battery 210 and the microcontroller 218, which is opposite to. At least a portion of the light emitting diodes 252a and 252b is preferably located on the top surface of the chassis cover 202a. By placing light emitting diodes 252a and 252b on other elements in this way, the radiation of light is not disturbed by these elements, so that shadows are substantially prevented and a more visible flame is formed.

While the arrangement of the various features within the chassis 202 is not critical, the chassis 202 preferably has a horizontal platform 252 (preferably a chassis base) for alignment of the fragrance emitter 204 within the chassis 202. Disposed on 202b). The platform 252 preferably has a platform opening 254 and one or more cutouts 255 formed on the periphery of the platform opening 254. Preferably, the replaceable reservoir 256 for use in the fragrance spinner 204 corresponds to each cutout 255 formed in one or more nubs 258 (platforms 252) formed on the reservoir 256. ). A portion of reservoir 256 passes through platform opening 254 and nubs 258 pass through cutout 255 to insert reservoir 256. When nub 258 cleans incision 255, reservoir 256 rotates to place nub 258 on top surface of platform 252. The top of the platform 252 also supports a nebulizer assembly 205 that combines with the reservoir.

In addition, the inner surface of the chassis 202 may include various protrusions. These protrusions are preferably provided to assist in proper alignment of the various elements within the chassis 202 and / or to protect the elements within the chassis 202. For example, the vertical protrusion (shown in FIG. 7C) partitions the region for containing the fragrance emitter 204 from the region with the microcontroller 218. In this way, when the reservoir 256 is replaced, the microcontroller 218 is not easy to access, thus preventing inadvertent damage or accidental contamination of the microcontroller 218.

The chassis cover 202a is designed to be positioned on the chassis base 202b, thus forming a single device 200. The protrusion or tip 206 is preferably disposed almost centrally on the chassis cover 202a. Tip 206 extends axially in a direction away from chassis base 202b and forms a cavity. When the chassis cover 202a is positioned on the chassis base 202b, the light emitting diodes 252a, 252b are disposed in the cavity (as signed above, the light emitting diodes 252a, 252b are preferably placed on top of the other light emitting diodes). The other light emitting diode is placed). Tip 206 is substantially conical and is preferably made of a material that diffuses light emitted by light emitting diodes 252a and 252b. However, for example, when two or more light emitting diodes are used, or when the housing is relatively wide, it may be desirable to change the shape of the projections. For example, when the wider tip 206 is used with the wider device 200, to keep the tip 206 relatively close to the chassis 202, the tip 206 may be more dome shaped.

Tip 206 is preferably about one inch of one eighth (3.2 mm) to about three inches high (76.2 mm) and about one inch of one eighth (3.2 mm) to about three inches wide (76.2 mm). . The remainder of the device 200 is preferably about 2 inches (50.8 mm) to about 10 inches high (254 mm), preferably about 1 and 1/2 inches (38,1 mm) to about 6 inches wide (152.4). mm). Thus, this configuration allows the device 200 to have substantially the same size and shape as the various conventional candles, while the tip 206 stimulates flame by sealing the light emitting diodes 252a and 252b.

The chassis cover 202a also includes a penetrating radial opening 262. When the chassis cover 202a is positioned on the chassis base 202b, the radiation opening 262 is aligned with the fragrance emitter 204. In particular, the radiation opening 262 is formed such that the perfume dispensed by the fragrance emitter 204 flows through the chassis cover 202a to the surrounding air. That is, the chassis cover 202a does not interfere with fragrance propagation from the fragrance emitter 204.

The chassis cover 202a is preferably secured to the chassis base 202b but this is not required. For example, as shown in FIG. 7A, the chassis cover 202a is removably attached to the chassis base 202b so that, for example, access to the reservoir 256 and / or battery for replacement purposes is possible. Can be achieved. When the chassis cover 202a is removably attached to the chassis base 202b, a locking mechanism can be used. For example, an attractive magnet may be located on the chassis cover 202a and the chassis base 202b, or the chassis cover 202a may be compatible with the coupling structure of the chassis base 202b. It may include a designed structure. In this way, only certain covers and bases can be used.

In another aspect, the inventors considered that when the chassis base 202b and the chassis cover 202a are secured to each other to form a single device 200, these members are relatively movable. In particular, when the chassis cover 202a is cylindrical, the chassis cover is rotatable on the chassis base 202b. For example, rotation of the chassis cover 202a may turn on and off the light emitting diodes 252a and 252b and / or the fragrance emitter 204.

As an alternative to the removable chassis cover 202a, for example for the purpose of replacing the reservoir 256, the device 200 may include a hatchway when a fresh scent is required or when the reservoir 256 is emptied. Can be. Examples of the two windows 264a and 264b considered are shown in Figs. 8 and 9, respectively.

As shown in FIG. 8, a hatch 264a may be located on the side of the device 200. The hatch 264a is preferably hinged and not completely removable from the device 200. As shown, the hatch 264a can be opened to achieve access to the reservoir 256. The window 264a may also be opened to allow the user to access the battery 210,

Alternatively, the window 264b may be formed on the bottom of the device 200. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, the substantially circular hatch 264b is removable from the device 200. In this structure, the reservoir 256 is preferably coupled to the hatch 264b. By coupling reservoir 256 to hatch 264b, hatch 264b supports reservoir 256 and ensures proper placement of reservoir 256 relative to sprayer assembly 205 when both members are assembled. . In particular, when nebulizer assembly 205 is used, removal of hatch 264b removes a portion of reservoir 256 from contact with nebulizer assembly 205. The reservoir 256 is then removed from the hatch 264b, with a new reservoir 256 coupled to the hatch 264b, with the reservoir 256 properly aligned with the sprayer assembly 205. Is reattached. When the hatch 264b of FIG. 9 is used, it may not be necessary to support and align the reservoir 256 for the horizontal platform 252 because the hatch 264b performs the horizontal platform and reservoir functions. As such, the horizontal platform 252 will support the nebulizer assembly 205 directly or preferably with a support.

The chassis base 202b may also include one or more openings 266 through which the user passes the control switch. For example, the toggle switch 220 allows the user to turn on or off the one or more fragrance emitters 204 and the light emitting diodes 252a and 252b, and the slider switch 268 allows the user to set the fragrance fragrance emitter 204. Control the speed of radiation. Alternatively or additionally, the switch may allow a user to adjust the light emitting characteristics of the light emitting diodes 252a and 252b or to change the emitted light show.

Thus, like the first embodiment, the second embodiment provides a light and material radiating device 200 that can be used as a single independent device. Device 200 may be configured to mimic a typical size and shape.

Thus, as is evident, in each preferred embodiment, a single device 100, 200 is provided that emits materials such as light and fragrance flickering into the ambient air. As described above, the preferred single device 100 of the first embodiment is preferably used in connection with the holder 141. The holder 141 has been described in detail above but is merely an example. The single device 100 of the first embodiment can be used in connection with any number of holders. Similarly, the single device 200 of the second embodiment can be used in connection with a unique holder, such as many replaceable candles generally to be placed into a decorative holder. As used throughout this specification, a holder is meant to include any complete or partial bag that holds, encloses, sits on or otherwise encapsulates a single device.

Preferably, at least a portion of the holder used with the single device 100, 200 of the embodiments allows light to pass through and radiate. 10 and 11A-11D show some representative alternative holder configurations that may be used in connection with light and fragrance emitting devices.

When the fragrance spinner is used, the sprinkled fragrance must be spun from the holder, so that the holder preferably provides sufficient ventilation. In particular, as in the second embodiment, when the nebulizer assembly is used, the light and fragrance radiating device is preferably arranged in the holder such that the radiating opening through which the fragrance is sprayed is from about 1 inch (25.4 mm) from the top of the holder. 6 inches (152.4 mm) and substantially away from the inner surface of the holder. More preferably, the radiation opening is about 0 inches to about 5 inches (127 mm) from the top of the holder. With such a device, fragrance buildup inside the holder is minimized. In addition, the holder can be designed to assist in the flow of the fragrance into the environment. As the width of the holder narrows toward the top of the holder, the air flow increases as the air leaves the holder. Furthermore, the holder preferably does not interfere with the emission of light from the light emitting diodes. In particular, the single device is preferably disposed in the holder such that the tip is from about one inch (12.7 mm) to about two inches (50.8 mm) from the holder. More preferably, the tip is about 1 inch (25.4 mm) to about 3 inches (76.2). The holder can also act as a diffuser. Furthermore, the inventors have for example contemplated that the holder may further comprise a pan to help better dispersion of the fragrance emitted from the fragrance emitter.

The holder may comprise a single member in which the device is located. Alternatively, as shown in FIGS. 11A-11D, the holder 241 also includes a holder base 241a and a holder cover 241b. More particularly, the device is included in or alternatively comprises a holder base 241a for receiving and supporting a holder cover 241b. When supported by the holder base 241a, the holder cover 241b covers the tip 206. That is, light emitted from the housing by each lighting device also passes through the holder cover 241b. Alternatively, the housing, for example the tip 206, cannot diffuse the emitted light, only the holder cover 241b diffuses the emitted light.

As shown in Fig. 11A, as a specific example of this embodiment, the holder base 241a comprising a single device as described above in the preferred embodiment is a circumferential rib extending radially outward from the holder base 241a. Has 241c. At least the lower portion 241d of the holder cover 241b is made of a standard for engaging with the lip 241c of the holder base 241a, whereby the holder cover 241b is positioned on the holder base 241a. Other schematic examples of the holder 241 are shown in FIGS. 11B-11D,

While it is envisioned that the holder cover 241b may be located on the holder base 241a, it is preferable to detachably attach the holder cover 241b to the holder base 241a. For example, holder cover 241b may be designed to snap on holder base 241a. Alternatively, holder cover 241b and holder base 241a may be designed such that holder cover 241b rotates on holder base 241a to form a locking engagement. In this or any configuration, when the holder cover 241b is fixed to the holder base 241a, the holder cover may be relatively movable. In particular, when the holder cover 241b is generally cylindrical, it can rotate on the holder base 241a to "on" and "off" the light emitting diodes 252a, 252b and / or the fragrance emitter 204. Alternatively, the engagement and separation of the holder cover 241b and the holder base 241a may operate to "on" and "off" the light source and / or material emitter. In this way, the device may only work with the holder cover 241b attached. In addition, the holder cover 241b and the holder base 241a can be specially designed so that only any holder cover 241b can be used with the holder base 241a. For example, the holder base 241a may include a reader (not shown) that reads an identification number ID (eg, an identification tag) of the holder cover 241b. In this way, the device will not work unless the holder cover 241b has an appropriate identification number.

When using the holder 241 according to the present embodiment, the inventors thought that the holder cover 241b can radiate the fragrance from the holder. For example, it is known that materials such as polyolefins can be impregnated or infused with fragrances. By forming the holder cover 241b of this material, the holder cover 241b will spin the fragrance over time in addition to that emitted by the fragrance emitter 204. Alternatively, if only holder cover 241b emits a fragrance, the device of this embodiment may not include fragrance emitter 204. Also, regarding the second embodiment described above, it was noted that when the holder is not desired, the combination of the chassis and the base is similar to the decorative candle. In this case, the fragrance may soak into the base or chassis.

Since the holder cover 241b of the present embodiment can be removed, access to the device is easy (for example, battery replacement) and the holder cover 241b can be replaced, for example, the holder cover 241b. When the fragrance infiltrated completely spreads out, a newly manufactured new holder cover 241b can be easily purchased and attached. In addition, a user who wants to move the device to a recently refurbished or other room may have a specific color or other A holder cover 241b having an aesthetic property can be purchased. Moreover, replaceable holder cover 241b can provide a different odor. In other embodiments, the entire holder (or base) can be replaced.

While a number of preferred embodiments have been described above, many other embodiments can be constructed without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. The invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. On the contrary, the invention is intended to cover various modifications and equivalents included within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the claims. The claims are to be accorded the widest scope so as to encompass all such modifications, equivalent structures and functions.

The present invention provides a device for light and / or aroma emission. The device provides the desired aesthetic ambience as a whole within an area such as a room.
