DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DISPENSING, IN PARTICULAR FOR VAPORIZING, VOLATILE SUBSTANCES, IN PARTICULAR FRAGRANCES AND/OR ACTIVE SUBSTANCES, AND HEATING ELEMENT

The invention relates to a device (1) for dispensing, in particular vaporizing, volatile substances, in particular fragrances and/or active substances, with a housing, with at least one container (2) in which a substance to be dispensed and/or volatilized is received, with the container (2) having a wick (3), preferably in the form of a capillary element, which projects out of the container (2) with a free wick end (4) and by means of which the substance to be dispensed is conveyable out of the container (2) into the region of the free wick end (4), with a heating device (17) generating heat with which at least part of the free wick end (4) is heatable, with a, preferably pure, first air flow (15) being enriched with the substance discharged from the free wick end (4) in order to form a substance-enriched air flow (23), with the housing (6) having a first housing outlet opening (26) for the substance-enriched air flow (23) to be dispensed, with the housing (6) having a second housing outlet opening (27) which is arranged at a distance from the first housing outlet opening (26) and which surrounds the first housing outlet opening (26) at least partially, preferably completely, with a, preferably pure, second air flow flowing (16) towards the second housing outlet opening (27), so that at least a part of the second air flow (16), preferably at least a predominant part of the second air flow (16), most preferably substantially the entire second air flow (16), flows via the second housing outlet opening (27) out of the housing (6) and/or into the environment, preferably in such a way that the second air flow (16) surrounds the substance-enriched air flow (23) at least initially. L'invention concerne un dispositif (1) de distribution, en particulier de vaporisation, de substances volatiles, en particulier de parfums et/ou de substances actives, comprenant un boîtier, au moins un récipient (2) dans lequel une substance à distribuer et/ou à volatiliser est reçue, le récipient (2) ayant une mèche (3), de préférence sous la forme d'un élément capillaire, qui fait saillie hors du récipient (2) avec une extrémité de mèche libre (4) et au moyen de laquelle la substance à distribuer peut être transportée hors du récipient (2) dans la région de l'extrémité de mèche libre (4), un dispositif de chauffage (17) générant de la chaleur avec laquelle au moins une partie de l'extrémité de mèche libre (4) peut être chauffée, un premier flux d'air (15), de préférence pur, étant e
