Description

A SCENTED AIR FRESHENING DEVICE
AND METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to an air freshening device. More particularly, the invention relates to an air filter having a fragrant polymeric residue on its filtering material or other portion through which air may pass and which may be used in a mechanical forced air type ventilation system.
BACKGROUND ART
Compositions and devices for releasing a fragrance over a long period of time are known. For example, U.S. Patent No. 4,118,226 discloses placing a solid aromatic medium in a perforated case which in turn is placed in an air circulation system. U.S. Patent
No. 4,604,114 similarly discloses placing large solid rods of fragrant scented material in an air circulation system. U.S. Patent No. 4,563,333 discloses a deodorizing fitting for an air filter in which a rectangular envelope of perforated cardboard with a deodorizing insert therein is adhered to the corner of the filter. U.S. Patent No. 4,065,262 discloses utilizing a plurality of containers for holding an air freshening composition positioned in the air filter. U.S. Patent No. 4,523,870 relates to an aroma dispensing cartridge placed in front of a air vent. A problem exists, however, in that each of these patents disclose devices which interfere with the flow of air through the circulation system. Furthermore, none of the inventions in these patents can be employed in a pre- existing filter system. Rather, specifically designed frames or casings must be employed to hold the fragrant structures. There exists a need, therefore, for an air freshening device which may be used in a pre-existing air circulation system and which does not interfere with the circulation of air through that system.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an air freshening device, such as an air filter, having a residue of polymer and fragrant liquid on a portion of the device through which the air passes. The device may be an air filter, preferably having filtering material such as fibers or foam rubber. The residue may be placed on the filtering material itself, or on a perforated substrate, such as a mesh, placed adjacent the material.
To provide the residue-containing material, a solution is prepared by dissolving a fragrant liquid in a volatile solvent. The solution is then mixed with a polymeric material and allowed to form a gel which is then applied to the portion of the air filter through which air passes. The solvent is evaporated and a fragrant, solid residue is deposited on the filtering material or mesh. The filtering material may comprise a standard force-air filter or the material may be placed in a standard filter frame or other stabilizing means for use in an air circulation system, such as a heating or air conditioning system. Air circulating through the system passes unobstructed through the filter and becomes scented with the fragrance. Because the fragrance is placed directly on the material, the present invention may be employed with little or no structural modifications to either the air circulation system or the filters.
Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide an air freshening device which may be utilized in a pre-existing air circulation system and which does not interfere with the flow of air through the system.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWING
Figure 1 is a top plan view of an air freshening device constructed according to the present invention.
BEST MODE OF CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
FIG. 1 illustrates a conventional air filter 10 of the kind typically provided in a receiving slot in an air circulation system. The filter 10 is comprised of fibrous filtering material 12, such as a textile material or other woven fibers that arrest particles in the interstices until they are clogged, and a rigid or semi¬ rigid frame 14 about the periphery of the material 12 for holding the filtering material 12 in position. A mesh 16 for further maintaining the filtering material 12 within the frame 14 is also provided.
The fibers 18 of the filtering material 12 contain thereon a residue of a fragrant liquid and a polymer. To produce the residue-containing fibers 18, a polymeric material-1 is dissolved in a volatile solvent. A fragrant liquid is then added to the polymer/solvent with vigorous stirring, and the resulting mixture is allowed to stand until a gel results. The viscosity of the gel can be regulated by adding solvent or polymer. The gel is then applied to the fibers 18 and allowed to dry. Upon drying, a solid, fragrant residue is deposited upon the fibers 18 and as air passes through the filter 10, the fragrance imparts a pleasant odor to the circulating air.
Any dissolvable fragrance material may be used, including methyl salicylate and citronella. It is preferable that a fragrant liquid be used. Likewise, any polymer may be used so long as it dissolves in the solvent and can act as a carrier for the fragrance. However, a non-ionic, water soluble polymer, such as hydroxypropylcellulose, is preferred. It has been found that a ratio of approximately 3:2 fragrant liquid to polymer (by weight) is preferred, although the ratio may range from 1:1 to 4:1 fragrant liquid to polymer (by weight) , respectively. By varying the ratio of fragrant liquid to polymer, residue with light, medium or heavy scents may be produced.
The solvent is preferably non-flammable and non- toxic. Furthermore, it should have a low boiling point so that it is volatile and evaporates rapidly. Methylene chloride has been found to be a particularly suitable solvent. A fixative, such as benzyl benzoate, Hercolyn D a product of John H. Calo of Valley Stream, New York may be added to the solution or gel to slow down the evaporation of the fragrance. Also, a dye may be added to give color to the residue.
The gel may be applied to the fibers 18 in virtually any manner so long as a residue is formed on the final product. For example, the gel, when having a high viscosity, may be poured directly onto the fibers 18 in a lattice design or the filter 10 may be dipped into the gel. Alternatively, a gel of lower viscosity may be used to treat the individual fibers 18 of the filtering material 12 before they are packed into the frame 14.
The following is one illustrative example of the method of producing the scented air freshening device of the present invention: EXAMPLE I
30 ml of citronella oil was dissolved in 125 ml of methylene chloride. 20 g s of hydroxypropylcellulose was then added to the solution with stirring. The mixture was placed in a sealed flask and left to sit for 8 hours at room temperature. The resulting product was a gel, which was then applied to a porous piece of 1/4 inch thick filter-grade foam rubber. After approximately 3 hours at room temperature, the solvent had evaporated from the gel and a solid residue remained on the foam rubber. It was found that the residue caused minimum change in the velocity of air passing through the foam rubber.
In use, the device of the present invention may be placed over the air path in a standard air circulation system. The device may be a part of a complicated filtering system, or may simply consist of a single sheet of residue- containing foam rubber capable of being attached over an air stream with tape or other standard fastening means. In either embodiment, as air passes freely through the device, the fragrance imparts a pleasant odor to the surrounding air. Once the device, such as a filter, has lost its fragrance, it may simply be replaced in the same manner as a standard filter. Therefore, an added benefit of the present invention is that the user is reminded to change his air filter once the fragrance is lost.
The foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention, and alternative embodiments of the invention are also envisioned. For example, rather than applying the residue to the filtering material 12, it is certainly possible, and in some instances preferred, to apply the residue to a mesh or grill, such as the filter maintaining mesh 16, which can be placed in the path of circulating air. Overall, because the residue is deposited in a thin layer, it may be provided on virtually any portion of an air filter 10 through which air passes and still assure minimum velocity reduction of the air and maximum fragrance absorption.
As used herein, the term "through which air passes" is defined to include air circulating adjacent a surface upon which the residue is deposited.
