View Patent ↗Apparatuses, systems, and methods are disclosed for an air freshener holder. An apparatus includes a body that includes a slot configured to receive an air freshener, a front side that includes at least one opening, and a back side that includes attachment means for coupling the body to a surface.
1 . An apparatus, comprising:
a body comprising:
a slot configured to receive an air freshener;
a front side comprising at least one opening;
a back side comprising attachment means for coupling the body to a surface; and
an external holder on the front side for attaching a different air freshener to the apparatus, wherein the external holder is coupled to the body using a hinge such that the external holder can be folded into a recess of the body.
2 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the body has a substantially cylindrical shape.
3 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the slot has a round shape for receiving the air freshener with a corresponding round shape.
4 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the external holder includes a groove for receiving an attachment member of the different air freshener.
5 . The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the groove is located between a lever mechanism that is opened to allow insertion of the attachment member of the different air freshener and closed to secure the attachment member to the body.
6 . The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the lever mechanism is locked in a closed position using securing means.
7 . The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising securing means for securing the external holder within the recess of the body.
8 . The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the securing means comprises a push lock mechanism.
9 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the back side is flexible to conform to surfaces of various contours, shapes, textures, or a combination thereof.
10 . A system, comprising:
an air freshener; and
a body comprising:
a slot configured to receive the air freshener;
a front side comprising at least one opening;
a back side comprising attachment means for coupling the body to a surface; and
an external holder on the front side for attaching a different air freshener to the body, wherein the external holder is coupled to the body using a hinge such that the external holder can be folded into a recess of the body.
11 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the air freshener has a round shape that corresponds to a shape of the slot.
12 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the external holder includes a groove for receiving an attachment member of the different air freshener.
13 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the groove is located between a lever mechanism that is opened to allow insertion of the attachment member of the different air freshener and closed to secure the attachment member to the body.
14 . The system of claim 13 , wherein the lever mechanism is locked in a closed position using securing means.
15 . The system of claim 10 , further comprising securing means for securing the external holder within the recess of the body, the securing means comprises a push lock mechanism.
16 . A method, comprising:
providing an air freshener; and
providing a body comprising:
a slot configured to receive the air freshener;
a front side comprising at least one opening;
a back side comprising attachment means for coupling the body to a surface; and
an external holder on the front side for attaching a different air freshener to the body, wherein the external holder is coupled to the body using a hinge such that the external holder can be folded into a recess of the body.
