Abstract: An air freshener device (10) is disclosed. The air freshener device (10) includes a cartridge (12) having a housing (16). The housing (16) has a sealed first cavity (26) and a sealed second cavity (28). First fragrance (60) is located within the first cavity (26) and has a first volatility. Second fragrance (62) is located within the second cavity (28) and has a second volatility. First and second cavities (26) and (28) have first and second openings (64) and (66) respectively. First opening (64) is covered by a first removable cover (68) and second opening (66) is covered by a second removable cover (69). Alternatively, a single cover may be used for both openings. When the covers (68) and (69) are removed the fragrances (60) and (62) independently exit their respective cavities (26) and (28). The device (10) includes an outer housing (14) having a front member (70) which includes air passage openings (72). The outer housing (14) has a back member (74) adapted and configured to be mounted on a surface. Top member (78) and bottom member (80) connect front (70) to back (74). Top and bottom members (78) and (80) have openings (82) and (84) which define a slot (86) extending the length of the outer housing (14). The slot (86) is sized and configured to receive the cartridge (12) whereby when the cartridge (12) is expired a second cartridge (98) is inserted into the slot (86) proximate the top member (78) and the second cartridge (98) is moved in the slot (86) toward the bottom member (80), the cartridge (12) moves downward in the slot (86) and is forced out the bottom member (80) by movement of the second cartridge (98). The air passage openings (72) receive air which moves over the cartridge (12) picking up the fragrances (60) and (62) resulting in an air-fragrance mixture which exits the air passage openings (72) thereby allowing dispersion of the fragrances (60) and (62).

Abstract: An air freshener device (10) having a cartridge (14) and a cartridge housing (16) is disclosed. The housing (16) has a sealed first cavity (18) and a sealed second cavity (20) having a first fragrance (22) and a second fragrance (24), respectively. First and second cavities (18) and (20) have first and second openings (34) and (54) respectively. The device (10) includes a housing (12) having air passage openings (70), (76), (78), a fan (82) and power means (80) and also supports cartridge (14). When the power means (80) powers the fan (82) the air passage openings (70), (76) and (78) receive air which moves from the second (76) to the third (78) air passage opening and from the first air passage opening (70) across the cartridge (14) picking up the fragrances (22) and (24) resulting in an air-fragrance mixture which is drawn into an unobstructed air flow between the second and third air passage openings (76) and (78) and exits the third air passage opening (78), thereby allowing dispersion of the fragrance (22) and (24).

Abstract: An air freshener device (200) having a cartridge (100) is disclosed. The cartridge (100) has a housing (101) having a tray (102). A first fragrance (105) is in a first cavity (103) and a second fragrance (106) is in a second cavity (104). A fragrance diffuser (130) is operatively connected to the tray (102) and positioned over the compartments of the tray. A removable cover is operatively connected to the tray to seal the open tops of the cavities. A battery cover (116) has a first side operatively connected to the housing and a second side having means for connecting the second side to the housing after a battery is enclosed in the cover.
