Claims
- 1. A vapor-dispensing device configured to connect to and mimic an electrical receptacle having a first outlet, said vapor-dispensing device comprising:
a housing having a first device outlet and a second device outlet, said housing configured to be removably attached to the first outlet and having the same profile as the electrical outlet; and a refill configured to removably attach to the vapor-dispensing device, said refill body configured to encompass at least two sides of an outlet pattern defined by the first outlet and the second outlet; and a volatizable material provided within said refill.
- 2. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 1, further comprising a an outwardly extending structure and said refill having an aperture configured in substantially the same size as said outwardly extending structure such that said refill can be attached to said housing and said refill has a thickness substantially equal to the distance the outwardly extending structure extends.
- 3. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 1, wherein said refill is configured as a U-shape.
- 4. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 1, wherein said refill is configured as an L-shape.
- 5. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 1, wherein said refill is configured as a C-shape.
- 6. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 1, wherein said refill has a window for viewing said volatizable material in said refill.
- 7. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 1, said volatizable material is volatized with a heating element.
- 8. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 1, said volatizable material is volatized passively.
- 9. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 1, further comprising a fragrance delivery system having a chamber, an eminator, a first wick and a second wick proximate to said eminator, and wherein said first and second wicks in fluid communication with said refill.
- 10. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 1, further comprising a fragrance delivery system having a chamber, an eminator, a first wick and a second wick in contact with said eminator, and wherein said first and second wicks in fluid communication with said refill.
- 11. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 9, wherein said eminator has a surface area of about 9 cm, and said first and second wicks have lengths of about 10 cm and widths of about 0.5 cm.
- 12. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 9, wherein said first and second wicks are separated from said eminator by a rip-cord.
- 13. A vapor dispensing device in accordance with claim 1, further comprising a fan.
- 14. An electrical device for interfacing with a duplex electrical receptacle having a first and a second outlet, the electrical device comprising:
a housing; a first plug disposed within the housing and having a first set of prongs configured to interface with the first outlet; and a second plug disposed within the housing and having a second set of prongs configured to interface with the second outlet, wherein the second set of prongs is moveably coupled with respect to the housing to accommodate variations in distance between the first outlet and the second outlet.
- 15. The electrical device of claim 14 wherein the first set of plugs is rigidly coupled with respect to the housing.
- 16. The electrical device of claim 14 wherein the second set of prongs is rotably coupled to the second plug.
- 17. The electrical device of claim 16 further comprising a pin coupling the second set of prongs to the second plug.
- 18. The electrical device of claim 14 wherein the second set of prongs is slidably the second plug.
- 19. The electrical device of claim 18 further comprising a pin coupled to the second set of prongs, and wherein the pin is configured to slide within a channel formed within the second plug.
- 20. The electrical device of claim 14 further comprising an elastic member coupling the second set of prongs to the second plug.
- 21. The electrical device of claim 20 wherein the elastic member is a spring.
- 22. The electrical device of claim 14 wherein the housing further comprises a first and a second outlet face configured to receive an electrical plug from an external device.
