Ceiling-fan-blade-mounted air freshener apparatus

摘要

A ceiling-fan-blade-mounted air freshener apparatus includes a housing assembly which includes a lower housing portion and an upper housing portion projecting upward from the lower housing portion. The upper housing portion includes a plurality of vent apertures. An air freshener/matrix assembly is housed within the housing assembly. A housing-to-blade connector connects the housing assembly to a ceiling fan blade. In one embodiment, the housing-to-blade connector is comprised of a layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive bonded to a bottom side of the lower housing portion. The housing-to-blade connector further includes a peel strip removably adhered to a bottom surface of the layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive. The housing assembly includes a pointed end, and the air freshener/matrix assembly includes a complementary pointed end. The pointed end of the air freshener/matrix assembly is wedged into the pointed end of the housing assembly under an influence of centrifugal force. In a second embodiment, the housing-to-blade connector is comprised of a clip assembly which includes a pair of spring clamp members which project upward from a clip base member. A centrifugal stop member projects upward from the clip base member. A layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive is bonded to a bottom side of the clip base member. A peel strip is removably adhered to a bottom surface of the layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive. A carrier assembly retains the air freshener/matrix assembly. The carrier assembly includes a pointed end.
