[0042] - Long duration of fragrance: By integrating with the cabin air filter 3, the fragrance diffuser 100 ensures that the fragrance is continuously and evenly diffused throughout the entire car cabin. Unlike some conventional stand-alone aromatherapy machines that can only provide fragrance for a short time or have a limited lifespan, the fragrance diffuser 100 according to the utility model releases fragrance as long as the car air conditioning system is running. This extended fragrance duration enhances the overall driving experience without the need for frequent fragrance refilling or replacement;

[0043] -Independence from power supply: Some conventional aromatherapy machines rely on power supply, limiting their usability in cars. By attaching the aroma diffuser 100 according to the present invention to the cabin air filter 3, it utilizes the car's existing HVAC system (heating, ventilation and air conditioning system) as a power source. This eliminates the need for separate batteries or electrical connections, ensuring continuous aroma diffusion;

[0044] - No mess and spillage: Some existing liquid aromatherapy machines have the risk of spillage or leakage, especially during refilling or handling, resulting in mess and potential damage to surrounding surfaces or fabrics. By integrating with the cabin air filter 3 and using scented polymer beads, the aromatherapy diffuser 100 according to the utility model eliminates the risk of spillage or leakage associated with existing stand-alone aromatherapy machines. The scented beads contained in the interior space 10 of the box 1 are stably contained in the interior space 10, preventing any mess or spillage during driving;

[0045] - Unlimited fragrance coverage area: The fragrance of some existing aromatherapy machines can only cover a small area, and larger spaces or car cabins require multiple aromatherapy machines, which can be costly and cumbersome to manage. By distributing the fragrance directly into the airflow of the car's HVAC system, the fragrance diffuser 100 according to the utility model ensures that the fragrance is evenly diffused throughout the cabin, regardless of its size. This comprehensive fragrance coverage eliminates the need for multiple aromatherapy machines, providing an efficient and cost-effective solution for distributing fragrance to larger spaces; and

[0046] - Lower maintenance requirements: Some existing aromatherapy machines require regular maintenance, such as regular cleaning or oil replenishment, which increases the overall cost and cost of ownership. By integrating with the cabin air filter 3, the aroma diffuser 100 according to the utility model simplifies the maintenance procedure. The user can easily replace the aroma diffuser 100 along with the cabin air filter 3 that is replaced regularly, thereby reducing the need for a separate maintenance plan or procedure. This simplified approach minimizes the workload and cost associated with maintaining the aromatherapy system.

[0047] The aroma diffuser 100 according to the present invention provides a convenient and effective solution for enhancing the olfactory experience in a car cabin. Its integrated accessories, solid polymer aroma beads, and flexible mounting options make it a universal and user-friendly solution for scenting a car cabin through an air conditioning system. In short, by alleviating or even eliminating the limitations of traditional or existing aromatherapy machines, the aroma diffuser 100 according to the present invention provides an efficient, convenient, and reliable solution for scenting a car cabin, thereby enhancing the overall driving and riding experience of the car occupants.

[0048] The aroma diffuser 100 according to the present invention may not be limited to the automotive field, but may also be attached to a filter of a portable or household air purifier.

[0049] Please see attached Figure 5-7 The utility model also provides an in-vehicle air treatment component, which includes the above-mentioned fragrance diffuser 100 and the automobile cabin air filter 3, wherein the fragrance diffuser 100 is suitable for being assembled to the automobile cabin air filter 3.
