  • the present invention pertains to a device which serves a dual purpose of providing light and of dispensing vapor. It is often desired or required to distribute vapors of some material to the air of a room or buliding or to the atmosphere of some other area. In the use of many materials, the distribution can take the form of evaporation and consequent incorporation of vapor into the atmosphere. Evaporation is, of course, enhanced by an application of heat and heat is generated by lighting devices; but if the material to be vaporized is'not somehow protected from overly rapid evaporation, the vapor is initially concentrated and short-lived, quickly tailing of to a mere residual amount having little effect.
  • vaporizable material When used in conjunction with most lighting devices of an intensity adequate for general illuminating purposes, unprotected vaporizable material is particularly fugitive. It has now been discovered that vaporizable materials can be contained in minute capsules and thereby be protected against rapid or premature evaporation.
  • the inner envelope completely encloses an electric filament light source and the outer envelope completely encloses and contains an amount of fragrance absorbed into a wicking material of some sort. While the fragrance is here-protected, the protection is of a gross nature, requires specially adapted lamp fixtures, and is delicate and costly, by its very nature.
  • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is often desired or required to distribute vaporizable materials to some atmosphere, either within an enclosure or simply within the limits of some diffusion or distribution means. Often the distribution is to be accomplished at a time when the area to be affected is also being occupied by persons living or working therein. To spray the material would disrupt activities, cause unpleasantly high initial concentrations, or otherwise create unacceptable inconveniences. As occupancy of an area usually also requires some use of artificial lighting means, a suitable device for distribution of some volatile material will couple the function of illumination with that of heating to cause vaporization.
  • the present invention is especially adapted, in one embodiment, to provide a prolonged source of vaporous material distributed by virtue of heat supplied in operation of a lamp without appreciably affecting the intensity of illumination therefrom.
  • required features of the article of the present invention include a light source and an envelope surrounding the light source.
  • the envelope has a coating thereon which includes a multitude of minute capsules containing a vaporizable material.
  • the article of this invention including the vaporizable material contained in capsules as it does, provides the substantial benefit and convenience of an on-off vapor supply.
  • the exact mechanism of release of material from the capsules is not known; but the release is believed to be achieved either by gradual diffusion of the vaporous material through the pores of an unbroken multitude of capsule walls or by complete release from individual capsules as a result of heat-stimulated capsule wall rupture.
  • extinguishing the light source removes the principal cause for release of the materialdiffusion drive through capsule wall pores under one theory and capsule wall rupture under the other. It is believed that the material is probably released in accordance with a combination of the theories of diffusion and rupture.
  • release of material is the present invention is not similar to simple evaporation so that distribution of the material depends not simply upon vapor pressure of the material at a particular temperature; but upon porosity or brittleness or composition of capsule walls.
  • the controlling factor in release of vaporizable vpaorizable material is not solely a rate of evaporation but is actually determined by intrinsic characteristics of the containing capsule walls.
  • One alternative to a coating of capsules which might be urged for use in the present invention is a coating of a dried emulsion of volatizable material wherein the volatizable material is originally included in a continuous phase of polymeric binder material dissolved by some evaporable solvent.
  • a dried emulsion coating is characterized by hvaing minute particles or droplets distributed throughout a continuous phase of solid polymeric film.
  • a dried emulsion film has been found to exhibit an inherent infirmity not present in this invention. Any film, when subjected to film-breaching forces, can be expected to rupture at its weakest point. In the case of a dried emulsion film, the protective polymer is thinnest at the very point where protection is most required.
  • the coating of this invention includes the additional protective reinforcement of capsule walls surrounding each volatizable particle; and when a binder polymer is included in the film, any fissure in the coating will occur solely in the binder polymer leaving capsule walls unaffected.
  • Lamps which are structures which include a light source and an envelope at least substantially surrounding the light source, are generally eligible.
  • electromagnetic radiation in a wavelength range which includes; but is not necessarily limited to;-radiation capable of raising the temperature of an absorbing body.
  • Light sources can include: resistance filaments common to incandescent lamps, gas-filled or not; open flames such as in candles or lanterns; and other means of electron excitation such as is exhibited in fluorescent lamps and cathode ray tubes.
  • the envelopes which surround the light sources are usually and referredly some light-transmitting material such as glass or plastic.
  • the envelope need not completely surround or enclose the light source; and if the envelope includes light transmitting material, it need not be entirely light transmitting.
  • the envelope can be transparent, translucent or opaque or combinations of those. It can be colored or not and can include coatings in addition to the capsule coating of this invention. Additional coatings can be used, for example, to enhance heat absorbance and the envelope must always be situated near enough to the light source that radiation absorbed by the envelope will provide adequate heat to stimulate the release of vaoors from the capsules.
  • the vaporizable materials eligible for use in this invention generally include any solid or liquid material which has a sufficient vapor pressure to produce effective amounts of vapor at only moderately increased temperatures. Moderate increases in temperature are envisioned to embrace the range of only a few or sometimes up to a hundred or more centigrade degrees above normal ambient temperatures. Actually, the degree of temperature increase is unimportant to the present device because any small temperature increase will provide some benefit. Of course, temperatures should be avoided which undesirably melt or char the capsule walls or the polymeric binder coating material, if present. By designation of the function of the eligible vaporizable materials, it is apparent that considerations of temperature increases are relatively unimportant.
  • the eligible materials include fragrances, deodorants, inhalant medicines, pest repellants, pesticides, germicides and the like. Such materials tend to be rather fugitive and to evaporate quickly and are, therefore, ideally adapted for use in this invention. Given vapor pressure characteristics similar to materials in the abovenamed categories, other materials such as flavors, fertilizers, chemical reactants, bleaching agents, and the like, are also eligible.'The vaporizable materials can be contained in the capsules as a solution in a liquid solvent and the volatility of the capsule contents can be adjusted by combining different solvents having different vapor pressure characteristics, as is done now, for example, in the perfume arts. Materials which are solid are useful to the extent that they melt and vaporize or vaporize from solution or vaporize from the solid by subliming.
  • the minute capsules which contain the vaporizable compounds can have capsule walls of any polymeric material which is not either dissolved or reacted by the capsule contents or melted by heat from'the light source.
  • the capsules cannot exist long enough for coating onto the lamps if the walls are breached by action of the capsule contents.
  • the melting temperature of polymers or combinations of polymers is easily ascertained and it is a simple matter to choose capsule wall materials having an appropriate melting temperature.
  • the minute capsules can range in size from only a few micronsio a few thousand microns;--such being embraced by the meaning of the word minute.
  • the preferred capsule size is from about 5 or 10 microns to about 5,000 microns and the most preferred capsule size is less than about 300 microns.
  • the capsules are preferredly smaller than can be resolved by the unaided human eye.
  • larger capsules can be advantageously used to supply decorative effects in addition to the release of vaporizable material.
  • decorative effects it should be noted that capsules of any size can be applied to lamp envelopes in a predetermined image shape or other decorative representation.
  • Capsule wall materials include: gelatins, gum arabic, starches, carrageenan, urea-formaldehyde resins and melamine-formaldehyde resins, poly(alkylvinylether-co-maleic anhydride), poly(ethylene-co-maleic anhydride), poly(vinyl alcohol), poly(vinyl pyrrolidone), poly(ethylene oxide), albumin, poly(acrylic acid) and poly(methacrylic acid), ethyl cellulose, polystyrene, polyacrylonitrile, cellulose acetate butyrate, cellulose acetate phthalate, cellulose nitrate, epoxy resin, polyurethane, polyethylene and the like.
  • the capsules can be manufactured using any of several known encapsulating processes including chemicalmethods of interfacial polymerization (U.S. 3,432,327) or phase separation (U.S. Fat. No. 3,415,758); U.S. Pat. No. 2,800,475) or solvent exchange (U.S. Pat. No. 3,516,943) or meltable disper sion (U.S. Pat. No. 3,161,602) or mechanical methods of film impingement (U.S. Pat.

  • the capsules can be coated onto the lamp envelope from any appropriate liquid vehicle system.
  • Appropriate liquid vehicle systems can include polymeric binder materials or not as required or desired for the particular application. While polymeric binders serve as adhesive material between capsules and the lamp envelope and are preferred, capsules made from wall materials which swell and become tacky in some particular liquid system can be coated without a separate binder material;-the tacky capsule wall providing a bond between the capsules and the envelope.
  • capsules manufactured by a process of complex coacervation in an aqueous vehicle (U.S. Pat. No. 3,341,466) can be coated directly onto a lamp envelope from the liquid in which the capsules were manufactured.
