Abstract:
1. An improved fragrance vibrating and nebulizing apparatus having a simple structure applicable to a container having a fragrance therein, comprising a holding unit installed on an opening of the container, so that a plurality of retainers extending downwardly from the holding unit can retain in place a wick immersed in the container, wherein the opening of the container on which the holding unit is installed is adapted to be covered with a cap, wherein the holding unit has two corresponding engaging portions formed on an outer periphery thereof, the two engaging portions each including a dent on a lower portion thereof so that a vibrating and nebulizing module can be mounted thereon, and wherein the vibrating and nebulizing module comprises: a vibrating and nebulizing base having two upwardly extending, inclined guide grooves on a central annular portion thereof, wherein the two guide grooves are each provided with a protrusion at an upper limit thereof, the vibrating and nebulizing base further including a supporting portion extending from each of corners thereof, and each of the supporting portions is formed with a resilient tenon on an upper end thereof; and a top retaining unit having a receiving space extending downwardly from a central portion thereof for receiving a resiliently and downwardly biased resilient element and a vibrating plate, wherein the resiliently and downwardly biased resilient element and vibrating plate are retained in the receiving space by a resilient retainer, and the top retaining unit further includes through holes at corners thereof; wherein, the holding unit, the vibrating and nebulizing base and the top retaining unit are assembled such that the two corresponding engaging portions formed on the outer periphery of the holding unit are rotationally connected with the two upwardly extending, inclined guide grooves formed on the central annular portion of the vibrating and nebulizing base, so that the dents formed respectively on the lower portions of the two engaging portions are engaged with the protrusions formed respectively at upper limits of the guide grooves; and the through holes at the corners of the top retaining unit are connected with the resilient tenons formed on the upper ends of the supporting portions extending from corresponding corners on the vibrating and nebulizing base; whereby the vibrating plate which is thereby provided at a lower portion of the top retaining unit in the vibrating and nebulizing module installed on the container is in contact with an end of the wick immersed in the container, so that fragrance drawn up by the wick is in contact with outside air and nebulized and dispersed by the vibrating and nebulizing module.
