Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2017215726A1] The invention relates to a device (1), comprising a container (2) for the substance (3) to be dispensed, a wick (4) as a capillary element, which wick is in contact with the substance (3) to be dispensed and is arranged in the container (2) at least in parts and forms part of the container (2), said wick having a wick-side substance dispensing area (7). According to the invention, at least one heating element (8) is provided, by means of which a substance air flow (60), which is enriched with substance and flows away from the device (1), can be produced by releasing heat to the wick-side substance dispensing area (7) and by means of which a substantially substance-free hot air flow (63), which flows away from the device (1) and is preferably warmer than the substance air flow (60), can be produced by releasing heat to the air surrounding the at least one heating element (8). Furthermore, a flow-guiding and/or deflecting apparatus is provided, by means of which at least one of the air flows flowing away, preferably the substance-free hot air flow (63), can be guided and/or deflected in such a way that the two air flows flowing away from the device (1) hit each other, preferably at a defined angle of incidence, and form a common substance-and-hot-air flow (64) flowing away from the device.
