主权项

1. A scented electronic candle device, comprising:
a body with a top surface and a base, the top surface including an opening; a well structure placed in the opening of the top surface and movable in a vertical up or down direction within the opening, the well structure including an outer wall, an inner wall, and a floor and a top section that collectively form an enclosure for holding a scented material, wherein the top section of the well structure includes one or more openings, at least a section of the floor comprises a heat conducting material, and the well structure surrounds a central cavity; a flame assembly positioned within or below the cavity of the well structure and including a flame element that at least partially protrudes upwards from the cavity and from the top surface of the body; a thermal structure including one or more heater elements, the thermal structure thermally coupled to the well structure to provide thermal energy to the scented material and to enhance dissemination of the scented material from the enclosure to an outside environment through the one or more openings of the top section of the well structure; an electrical switch coupled to a power source to activate or deactivate at least the one or more heater elements; a support structure positioned below the well structure, the support structure mechanically coupled to both the well structure and to the electrical switch such that a vertical movement of the well structure causes activation or deactivation of the electrical switch.
