    摘要: The present teachings provide apparatus and methods for reducing wrinkles in a laundered fabric. In various embodiments, the apparatus includes a dryer and a vapor generator device mounted within the dryer that dispenses a wrinkle reduction composition into the dryer upon a signal from a sensor in the dryer. Furthermore, the present teachings provide methods for delivering a wrinkle reduction composition into laundry dryer. In an exemplary embodiment, a method can include electronically monitoring at least one operating parameter of a laundry dryer to determine when the operating parameter meets a first preset condition, then activating a vapor generator when the first preset condition is met, and dispensing a vapor of a wrinkle reduction composition into the laundry dryer.

    摘要: The present invention suitably provides a method and apparatus for controlling the temperature of a liquid vaporizer heating element, and thereby the rate of evaporation and level of fragrance delivery from the same. In accordance with one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the device may include a switch that suitably allows the temperature of various types of heating elements to be controlled for different levels of fragrance output. For example, an exemplary embodiment may include a two-pronged plug adaptable to typical outlets that might be found in residential homes or businesses. In accordance With another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the electrical switch generally provides varying resistance values to the electric circuitry of the vaporizer such that, by changing the switch setting, the operating temperature of the wick is controlled and thus the rate of fragrance evaporation from the vaporizer.

    摘要: The present invention achieves advancement in the art by providing a method and apparatus for selective positioning of a wick material in a vapor-dispensing device that facilitates effective fragrance vapor delivery while offering significant advantages in manufacture, assembly, product performance, and product safety. In one embodiment, the wick is suitably selected and positioned such that sufficient surface area of the wick material is suitably exposed to the heating unit to enable effective evaporation of a vaporizable liquid, but the wick height relative to the heating element minimizes the amount of surface area of the wick in proximity to the heating element. Additionally, the positioning can reduce the need for protective overcaps and other apparatus for protecting the wick.
