Patent EP-1027083-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SMITH NIGEL PETER
IPC: F23D3/02
Filed: 1998-10-26
Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided, which enable an air modifying agent such as an insecticide, pesticide, insect repellant, fragrance, perfume etc. to be disseminated into an atmosphere. The air modifying agent is entrained in a flammable liquid carrier (2) which is less volative than the agent, which is held in a container (1). A wick (3) draws the agent/carrier (2) up to an igniting station provided at the rim (5) of a metal collar (4) which closely encircles the wick (3). The collar (4) is provided with a pair of diametrically opposed elongate slots (8), which expose part of the wick (3) to the atmosphere and thereby provide a vaporisation station spaced below the igniting station and disposed in the path of the flammable liquid carrier. In use, heat from a flame (6) passes along the collar (4) and warms the wick (3) in the vaporisation station, thereby assisting the preferential evaporation of the air modifying agent from the vaporisation station, away from the flammable liquid carrier prior to the latter's combustion in the flame (6). An angled deflecting plate (10) is also provided to deflect the evaporated air modifying agent away from the flame (arrow A).

IPC: B26B21/22

Abstract: A blade cartridge including one or more blades fixed between a platform member and a cap member. The blades have apertures that allow lubricants removed from a surface of a shaver by the cutting edge of the blade to be transported through the blade and supplied to the cutting edge of the adjacent blade or to a skin engaging surface of the cap member, whichever the case may be. The apertures in the blades define flow paths that allow lubricants to reach successive cutting edges or skin engaging surfaces, thereby reducing irritation to the shaver. The blades are spaced apart by spacers that are constructed with passages that allow the free flow of lubricant through adjacent flow paths. The cap member includes passages that allow the free flow of lubricating agents through the flow paths to the skin engaging surface of the cap member. This arrangement is especially significant for razor blade cartridges having three blades, where, in conventional razor blade cartridges, the third blade and cap member are likely to encounter dry skin.

Abstract: A tire air monitoring apparatus includes transmitters
(3) for wirelessly transmitting data regarding the inner
pressure of tires (2) and a receiver (4) for receiving the
data transmitted by the transmitters (3). Each transmitter
(3) is powered by a battery (15). Each transmitter (3)

pressure of the tire (2) at predetermined measuring
intervals (tl). Each transmitter (3) periodically and
wirelessly transmits data every time the pressure sensor
(11) has taken a measurement a predetermined number of
times. When the tire pressure changes by an amount that is
equal to or greater than a predetermined upper limit value
(P1, P2) during a predetermined judging time, the
transmitter (3) performs an early data transmission.
Therefore, an abnormality in the tire pressure is
immediately communicated to a driver, and battery strength
is conserved.
