Abstract

The present invention is directed toward apparatuses, devices, methods, kits, programs, and combinations to eject a bottle or container from a compartment. For example, in one embodiment of the present invention an ejector is provided that cantilevers over the bottle and is configured to eject the bottle from the container when sufficient force is applied to the ejector. In other embodiments, an ejection mechanism is disposed on a housing assembly of a device at a position to eject the container from the compartment, wherein the ejection mechanism is disposed in a non-retaining relationship with the container. The ejector mechanisms of the present invention can be used with a variety of devices, including, for example, a diffuser used to disperse an active material and/or generate an aesthetic lighting display, such as multicolored displays, color-changing displays, projection displays, shine-through displays, or the like. The diffusers may also provide control over varying emission of light and/or fragrance.
