Furthermore, the method provides synchronization of dynamic light shows with the products on display. | 12-03-2009 |
20100283407 | CIRCUIT FOR COLOR CHANGING LED DEVICES WITH VOLATILE ACTIVE EMISSIONS - A control circuit for color changing LED devices with volatile active emissions and hidden input jacks is disclosed. The circuit allows the device to use variously sized power adapters, and a plurality of colored LEDs positioned so as to emit a colored light show. The circuit also includes a volatile active dispenser to control volatile active emission rates. A hidden input jack is also disposed to provide additional power as required. Thus, the circuit provides the combination of illumination and/or ambient light, colored light shows, volatile active emission control, and combinations thereof, within a single standalone device. | 11-11-2010 |
20100284168 | ILLUMINATION DEVICES WITH VOLATILE ACTIVE EMISSIONS - An illumination and volatile active dispenser device and corresponding control circuits are disclosed. The device supports at least one white light source to emit illumination light, and a plurality of colored LEDs capable of providing a sequence of light patterns and ambient light. The modular control unit provides a volatile active dispenser to control volatile active emission rates. Thus, the illumination and volatile active dispenser device provides illumination light, ambient light, light shows, volatile active emission control, and combinations thereof, within a single standalone but modular device. | 11-11-2010 |
20110148329 | MULTI-SENSORY PRODUCT COMBINING REEDS, VOLATILE ACTIVES DIFFUSION, FORM-WITHIN-A-FORM CONSTRUCTION, AND LIGHT SHOW CAPABILITIES - A multi-sensory product able to disperse chemical actives using reeds or other wicks, as well as providing a light show is disclosed. The product includes a form-within-a-form design wherein the inner form or vase is able to store the chemical actives, as well as mount the reeds or other wicks. The outer vase complements the aesthetics of the inner vase while at the same time concealing the electronics of the device. The electronics of the device can include a power source, as well as a circuit board for driving LEDs mounted thereon. The LEDs can generate a light show which can be refracted and diffused through the glass or polymer material forming the inner and outer vases thereby creating an aesthetically pleasing and multi-sensory experience through the use of the product. | 06-23-2011 |
20110297692 | Sponge Sheet Dispenser - A device for dispensing a sheet from a stack of sheets is disclosed. The device includes a holder for receiving a refill container including the stack of sheets. The holder includes a holder base wall and opposed holder side walls extending up from the holder base wall. The refill container includes a container base wall and opposed first and second container side walls extending up from the container base wall. A first flap extends inward from an end of the first container side wall, and a second flap extends inward from an end of the second container side wall. The first flap and the second flap are dimensioned to define a longitudinal dispensing slot of the container. At least one of the first flap and the second flap of the container can flex upward when a sheet is dispensed from the device. In one form, the sheets comprise a thin sponge material. | 12-08-2011 |
20110297694 | Cloth Dispenser - A re-usable dispenser for interfolded cloth sheets is disclosed.
