    • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
  • The following descriptions are of exemplary embodiments only, and are not intended to limit the scope, applicability or configuration of the invention in any way. Rather, the following description provides a convenient illustration for implementing exemplary embodiments of the invention. Various changes to the described embodiments may be made in the function and arrangement of the elements described without departing from the scope of the invention as set forth in the appended claims.
  • Referring to FIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 4, there is shown a driving mechanism for a fragrance dispenser which comprises a press mechanism 1, and a control circuit 2, wherein the press mechanism 1 includes a base seat 11 having a protruded circular recess 12 at the lower section of the base seat 11. The two lateral sides of the recess 12 are provided with fixing ribs 121, and at the connection between the recess 12 and the base seat 11 an opening 122 is formed. The opening 122 is used for the fixing of a fragrance bottle 3. The lateral side of the base seat 11 is provided with a battery compartment 13 for the holding of batteries 14. The surface of the base seat 11 is provided with a fixing hole 15 at an appropriate position for the mounting of a motor 16, from the bottom section of the base seat 11, so that the axle of the motor is protruded from the fixing hole 15, and at the axle and the fixing hole 15, a main and driven gear 17, 18 are respectively mounted thereto. The driven gear 18 is connected to a press rod 19 and one side of the press rod 19 is provided with a plurality of teeth 191. The press rod 19 urges the blocking ribs 192, 194 at the two lateral sides such that when the motor 16 rotates, the press rod 19 is driven to press downward. Thus, the spray head 31 of the fragrance bottle is pressed, and the fragrance is dispensed. In order to cause the press rod 19 to move smoothly, the surface of the base seat 11 below the press rod 19 is provided with a protruded rid 193, so that the movement of the press rod 19 is smooth.
  • In accordance with the present invention, the control circuit 2 includes a LCD 21 and a plurality of press buttons 22. By pressing the buttons 22, the number of working days and the total number of dispensing of the fragrance bottle 3 can be set. By means of the electronic circuit, the set time to active the driving motor 16 to dispense fragrance can be obtained.
  • The press mechanism 1 and the control circuit 2 are mounted within a specific designed dispenser body 4 and the fragrance bottle is mounted onto the recess 12 of the base seat 11. By means of the fixing rib 121, the bottle is mounted and the dispensing head is located at a positioning rod 31 facing the press rod 19 of the press mechanism 1. When the control circuit 2 drives the press mechanism 1, the press rod 19 is depressed downward and the dispensing head 31 is pressed and the fragrance from the fragrance bottle 3 is dispensed via the nozzle 41 of the dispenser body 4 and the environment is provided with a fragrance odor.
  • In order to smoothly depress the press rod 19, the notch 122 allows the front end of the press rod 19 to be protruded so that the press rod 19 is avoided from blockage.
  • Referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, there is shown the action of the press mechanism 1. The clockwise and anticlockwise movement of the motor causes the engaged main and driven gears 17, 18 to produce movement of difference direction, wherein the press rod 19 which is in engagement with the driven gear 18 is transmitted with the gear 18 and the teeth 191, and the press rod 19 and positioning of the blocking rib 192 cause upward and downward displacement, and the position rod 31 mounted at the dispensing head of the fragrance bottle is pressed, therefore, the fragrance within the fragrance bottle 3 is dispensed via the nozzle 41 of the body 4. The recess 12 is adaptable to fragrance bottle of aqueous soluble or inert gas soluble.
  • Referring to FIG. 7, there is shown the circuit diagram in accordance with the present invention. As shown in the figure, the control circuit 2 includes a microprocessor and memory, LCD driver, input/output port, and by means of the press button 22, the working days of the fragrance and the total numbers of dispensing of fragrance are set. The microprocessor based on the set value, will calculate the timing of dispensing and is stored within the memory and displayed on the LCD such that the fragrance dispenser will automatically dispense fragrance at the set timing. Thus, the date of changing a new bottle of fragrance can be exactly determined.
  • It will be understood that each of the elements described above, or two or more together may also find a useful application in other types of methods differing from the type described above.
  • While certain novel features of this invention have been shown and described and are pointed out in the annexed claim, it is not intended to be limited to the details above, since it will be understood that various omissions, modifications, substitutions and changes in the forms and details of the device illustrated and in its operation can be made by those skilled in the art without departing in any way from the spirit of the present invention.
