A hinge rotates a cover pivotably connected to a device housing from a closed position to an open position. A shaft is connected to the cover. The shaft and cover have a common axis of rotation. A spring having a top end and a bottom end is affixed at its bottom end to the device housing. A line has a first end connected to the top end of the spring and a second end wound onto the shaft. When the cover is in the closed position, the spring is in an extended state. Upon release of the cover from the closed position, the spring force returns the spring toward a neutral state, thereby unwinding the line from the shaft and causing rotation of the cover to the open position.

The present invention suitably provides a method and apparatus for controlling the temperature of a liquid vaporizer heating element, and thereby the rate of evaporation and level of fragrance delivery from the same. In accordance with one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the device may include a switch that suitably allows the temperature of various types of heating elements to be controlled for different levels of fragrance output. For example, an exemplary embodiment may include a two-pronged plug adaptable to typical outlets that might be found in residential homes or businesses. In accordance with another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the electrical switch generally provides varying resistance values to the electric circuitry of the vaporizer such that, by changing the switch setting, the operating temperature of the wick is controlled and thus the rate of fragrance evaporation from the vaporizer.

The present invention is generally directed to devices useful in insuring the proper installation of a high efficiency particulate air (“HEPA”) filter into a room air purifier. In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, a magnetic interlock device is provided wherein the filter must be properly installed within the air purifier to enable closure of an electrical switch () within the air purifier, thereby completing an electrical circuit and permitting the air purifier motor and fan () to operate or to provide an audible or visual signal provided by electrically acuated means indicating incorrect placement of the filter within the device. In a second aspect of the invention, the air purifier is designed to create an audible signal to alert a user if the air purifier is operated without an air filter or if the air filter is improperly installed in the air purifier.
