摘要:
The invention relates to a fragrance dispenser for botanical products and methods of use thereof. The fragrance dispenser includes a holding member having a surface for holding a botanical product such as potpourri; a support member for supporting the holding member and for receiving a supply of liquid fragrance; and a plurality of wicking members extending from the supply of liquid fragrance to and upon the holding member surface for transferring the liquid fragrance from the supply to the surface for diffusing the fragrance therefrom.

A method for treating a sugar-containing natural consumable product for lowering its sugar content includes passing a stream of a sugar-containing natural consumable product into contact with a bed of ionic adsorbent material capable of chromatographically separating sugar from the natural consumable product; and chromatographically separating a sugar-diminished natural consumable product from the adsorbent bed. A high intensity natural and/or artificial sweetener can be added to the sugar-diminished beverage to produce a beverage product having similar flavor and nutritional content as the original beverage, but containing a lower amount of calories. The sugar-reduced beverage also can be used as a flavoring for the beverage and food industry; or as an ingredient component for reduced and full calorie foods (e.g., jellies, candies, etc.). The sugar-reduced beverage can be concentrated to a higher level using less energy as compared to standard juices.

System and method for emanating fragrance vapor into a region. Fragrance liquid within a receptacle exhibits a liquid phase-vapor phase interface surface when in a quiescent state. Utilizing sub-pressure generators such as fan driven systems, the pressure above the interface is lowered to promote the escape of vapor molecules for dissemination into the atmosphere. The surface area of the fragrance fluid may be increased through the use of a bubbling technique to derive an effective area permitting a larger vapor molecule escape.

The present invention relates to vessel design that enhances candle performance by separating the inlet air from the active scent while accelerating the active scent. The chimney-like assembly accelerates active scent flow, thus propelling active scent faster and further from the candle. The separation of inlet air from active scent produces an efficient laminar flame with minimal flame movement and flickering, thus reducing the soot potential.

A flame-retardant wick holder for a candle is made of a material having a UL-94 vertical burn test rating of at least V-0, including polymers and ceramics. The wick holder supports a wick at the bottom of a candle. The wick holder material causes the flame on the wick to extinguish when it reaches the holder, thereby preventing flashover of the residual candle fuel at the end of the candle useful life. One version of the holder has a cylindrical sleeve fit over a wick clip holding the lower end of the wick. The cylindrical holder is well adapted for use in pillar-type candles.

A rigid planar wick and one or more fabric wicks are adhered together for use in candles. The fabric wicks may be planar fabric wicks, traditional shaped string-shaped wicks or a fabric sheath. The rigid wick is of a predetermined width, length, and thickness and the planar fabric wick is of some dimension equal to, less than, or greater than the planar surface area of the rigid wick. By combining both a planar fabric wick and a rigid planar wick, consistency in flame heights can be achieved, providing an improved wick for candle use.

A non consuming/reusable candle includes a wick that is a made of a porous sintered metal or alloy or of ceramic. The wick is conducive to wicking, via capillary action, any candle fuel for the purpose of combustion. The wick shape may be of any multiple geometrical shapes, and may be straight or curved, and provide either a narrow or broad flame. A wick holder can also be employed to hold the non consuming wick in place as well as to help with heat transfer to the body of the wax

An automotive air freshener for insertion into a cigarette lighter socket of a vehicle has an elongated housing having first and second ends and opposite sides. First and second electrical contacts are in the first end of the housing and are adapted for insertion into the cigarette lighter socket so that the first and second electrical contacts can be in electrical contact with the socket. An internal circuit board has a switch and an operating current in contact with the first and second electrical contacts. Power is conveyed through the electrical contacts to the circuit board to provide heat at varying degrees to heat a fragrance pad and to operate a fragrance emitting phenomenon. A cover is connected to the circuit board to protect a user from burns.
