DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Below, this invention is demonstrated in detail using an example of a figure.
FIG. 1 is an example of a lighting illuminating body using the combustion cartridge body of the present invention. A candle burning body 3 is composed of a wax burning agent 1 and a burning core 2, and a combustion cartridge body 5 comprising the candle burning body 3 and a cup-shaped candle burning body container 4 for accommodating the candle burning body 3 has a three-dimensional design such as a candle shape. It is housed in a recess 11 formed on the upper surface of the body 6 and is formed as a lighting illuminating body 7 such that the three-dimensional design body 6 burns. The tip 8 at the uppermost end of the side wall surface of the combustion chamber container 4 does not end with a straight divergent shape, but is formed in a brim shape to give rigidity.
[0012]
In order to easily replace the combustion cartridge body 5 as a disposable, it is desirable that the candle combustion body container 4 is made of a synthetic resin. The material of the cup-shaped candle burning body container 4 for housing the candle burning body 3 comprising the known wax burning agent 1 and the burning core 2 is such that the contact portion of the three-dimensional design body 6 with the candle burning body container is thermally deformed. It is desirable that the heat of the molten wax accompanying combustion is not easily conducted to the surface of the three-dimensional design body 6 in contact with the candle combustion container 4 so as not to be damaged. Since it is necessary to consider the burning of the combustion flame to the body container 4, a synthetic resin having flame retardancy is preferable. In addition, it is desirable that the candle burning body container 4 has an inconspicuous appearance when in use, and that the candle itself looks bright due to the light of the combustion flame is an excellent effect of the candle. In order to exert the effect, a synthetic resin having transparency is preferable. For these reasons, for example, polyvinyl chloride resin, polycarbonate resin, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyethylene terephthalate, 6-nylon, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyimide and the like can be used as the material of the candle burning body container 4. . Furthermore, synthetic resins such as polyvinyl chloride resin and polycarbonate resin are preferable as the versatile flame retardant synthetic resin. Further, the shape of the candle combustion body container 4 is an inverted truncated cone as shown in FIG. In addition, heat accumulation due to the combustion flame is reduced, and this is effective in reducing the influence of heat on the candle combustion container 4 and the three-dimensional design body 6.
[0013]
Further, the tip 8 at the uppermost end of the side wall surface of the candle burning container 4 is formed in a rigid structure so as not to be easily thermally deformed or burnt or burned due to the approach of the combustion flame. In FIGS. 1 and 3A, the rigid structure has a brim shape. In addition, as another rigid structure, in FIGS. 3B, 3C, and 3D, the combustor in which the rigid structure of the distal end portion 8 at the uppermost end of the side wall surface is formed in an outwardly wound shape. An example of the storage container 4 and an example of the combustion body storage container 4 formed in a shape folded outward are shown.
Further, in order to add a heat insulation effect so that the three-dimensional design body 6 is not damaged due to melting, thermal deformation, or the like due to the heat of the combustion core fixing washer 9 that becomes high temperature as the candle combustion body 3 burns, the washer 9 is added. In order to provide a structure in which a gap is provided between the combustion body container 4 directly below and the three-dimensional design body 6, the center of the bottom surface of the combustion body container 4 is formed with a step 10 above the periphery of the bottom surface. An example of the combustor containing container 4 is shown in FIG.
Further, as shown in FIG. 6, the combustion body container 4 and the three-dimensional design are formed by placing the tip 8 formed in the shape of a flange of the combustion cartridge body 5 on the upper end of the three-dimensional design body 6. It can also be set as the structure which provides a clearance gap between the bodies 6. FIG. As a result, a heat insulating effect can be added in the same manner as the step 10 provided on the bottom surface of the combustor container 4, and the solid design body 6 is damaged by melting and thermal deformation due to the heat of the washer 9. You can prevent it. The cross section of the illuminating body when the conventional combustion body container 4 shown in FIG. 2 is used is as shown in FIG. 5, and the three-dimensional design body 6 is damaged by melting or thermal deformation due to the heat of the washer 9. Become.
Furthermore, in the combustion cartridge body 5 in which the tip 8 at the uppermost end of the side wall surface of the candle burning body container 4 is formed in a brim shape as shown in FIG. The three-dimensional design body 6 is not soiled only by riding on the formed tip portion 8, and a molten wax enters from the gap between the upper end portion of the three-dimensional design body 6 and the combustion body container 4, The design body 6 is not soiled, and the inconvenience that it is difficult to take out the combustion body container after the completion of combustion does not occur, and it can be taken out easily.
Thus, it can be said that the combustion cartridge body 5 in which the tip 8 at the uppermost end of the side wall surface of the candle combustion body container 4 has a flange shape has various advantages and is a desirable form.
It is desirable that the candle burning body container 4 is integrally formed from a sheet-like synthetic resin from the viewpoint of ease of production and low cost. However, it is possible to form the candle combustion container 4 by other molding methods such as an injection method. It is.
[0014]
The candle burning body 3 is composed of a wax burning agent 1 and a burning core 2 formed by a well-known means, and the shape of the candle burning body 3 gives a sense of unity with the three-dimensional design body 6 such as a candle shape and maintains the appearance as a candle. For this reason, it is preferable that the height of the side wall be a shape that does not protrude above the candle burning body container 4. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 1, in order to make the overall appearance into a soft candle shape, the object can be achieved by making the center of the upper surface of the candle burning body 3 convex. Further, in order to prevent the molten wax accompanying combustion from overflowing from the candle burning body container 4 to contaminate the three-dimensional design body 6 and to become drooling, the candle burning body 3 and the candle burning body are contained. It is preferable to secure a gap capacity capable of receiving and accommodating the molten wax with the container 4.
[0015]
The candle burning body 3 is adhered or adhesively fixed to the inner bottom portion of the candle burning container 4 by a well-known means such as a hot melt method, an adhesive, an adhesive, an adhesive tape, an adhesive tape or the like. Also good. By fixing the bottom of the candle burning body 3 to the inner bottom of the candle burning container 4, the candle burning body 3 is prevented from being unevenly distributed in the candle burning container 4, and is secured in the center portion and burned. It is possible to prevent the flame from being too close to the side wall of the candle combustion container 4 and the side wall of the candle combustion container 4 being thermally deformed or damaged. Moreover, it is very convenient in appearance that the combustion core 2 or the combustion flame is ensured in the central portion without being unevenly distributed on the upper surface of the lighting body. In addition, during transportation and transportation, not only can the candle burning body 3 move in the candle burning body container 4 and be damaged, but also the loading and unloading of the burning cartridge body 5 to and from the three-dimensional design body 6 can be performed. It can be done in one effort and is extremely simple.
[0016]
The three-dimensional design body 6 such as a candle shape is formed of a material mainly composed of a well-known paraffin wax, polyethylene wax or the like in order to exhibit appearance characteristics such as the original color, texture, texture, texture, and light transmission of the candle. The ones that were made are the best. Moreover, when this solid design body 6 is shape | molded with a synthetic resin, a polyacetal resin is a raw material which comprises the above-mentioned external appearance characteristic, and is preferable. Furthermore, you may shape | mold from materials, such as another synthetic resin, ceramics, ceramics, glass, a metal, gypsum, wood. The shape of the three-dimensional design body 6 may be, for example, as shown in FIG. 7 in addition to that shown in FIG.
[0017]
It is preferable to provide a slight gap between the candle-shaped three-dimensional design body 6 and the combustion cartridge body 5. Due to this gap, the combustion cartridge body 5 can be very smoothly loaded into and taken out of the recess 11 on the upper surface of the three-dimensional design body 6. Further, it becomes difficult for the heat of the melting wax to be directly transmitted from the side wall of the candle combustion container 4 to the three-dimensional design body 6, and the three-dimensional design body 6 is damaged by melting or heat deformation due to the heat of the melting wax. Can be prevented.

【Example】
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to comparative examples and examples.
Comparative Example 1 and Example 1: The candle burning body to be used is made of a wax burning agent mainly composed of paraffin wax and a burning core which is a cotton core, from the bottom to the top of the wax burning agent. The shape shown in FIG. 1 is 28 mm in height, 18.5 mm in height of the side wall, 42 mm in maximum diameter, and 38 mm in bottom diameter.
Further, the above-mentioned candle burning body is shaped into an inverted frustoconical shape with an opening having an inner diameter of 50 mm, a bottom inner diameter of 39 mm and a depth of 20 mm from a 0.2 mm thick PVC sheet as shown in FIG. The combustion cartridge body housed in is used as a comparative example 1 sample.
Next, the candle burning body has the shape shown in Fig. 3 (a) from a PVC sheet with a thickness of 0.2mm, an inverted frustoconical shape with an inner diameter of the opening of 50mm, a bottom surface inner diameter of 39mm, and a depth of 20mm. Therefore, a combustion cartridge body housed in a candle combustion body container in which the tip of the uppermost end of the side wall surface is formed in a flange shape with a width of 5 mm outward is defined as a sample of Example 1.
[0019]
As shown in FIG. 1, it is a three-dimensional design body such as a candle shape, which has a top surface diameter of 63 mm, a bottom surface diameter of 28 mm, and a height of 170 mm and is made of polyethylene wax as a main component, and has a recess for accommodating the combustion cartridge body on the top surface The shape of the concave portion is an inverted frustoconical shape, and each of six of the three-dimensional design bodies formed with an opening diameter of 53 mm, a bottom surface diameter of 41 mm, and a deep length of 21 mm has three samples of the comparative example 1 and example 1 respectively. Each piece was loaded and held one by one.
After the six samples were ignited, they were burned for 2 hours under a wind with a wind speed of about 0.6 m / sec from above and observed.
[0020]
In all three samples of Comparative Example 1, the top end of the side wall surface corresponding to the leeward starts to gradually deform inward due to the heat of the combustion flame, and after one hour of combustion, only one mild deformation. However, the remaining two were greatly heat-deformed and burned.
On the other hand, in the sample of Example 1, the top end of the side wall surface receives the heat of the combustion flame in the same manner as the sample of Comparative Example 1, but all the three candle burning containers are burned after 2 hours of combustion. However, almost no thermal deformation was observed.
[0021]
Comparative Example 2 and Example 2, Example 3: A candle burning body having the same specifications as the Comparative Example 1 sample and further having a combustion core fixed to a steel combustion core fixed washer having a diameter of 14.5 mm has the same specifications as the Comparative Example 1 sample. A combustion cartridge body bonded and fixed to the inner bottom portion of the combustion body container by hot melt method is used as a sample of Comparative Example 2.
In addition, a candle burning body having the same specifications as the sample of Example 1 and further having a combustion core fixed to a steel combustion core fixing washer having a diameter of 14.5 mm is hot on the inner bottom portion of the combustion container containing container of the same specifications as Example 1. A combustion cartridge body bonded and fixed by the melt method is referred to as Example 2 sample.
Further, in the combustor containing container having the shape shown in FIG. 4A, the central part of the bottom surface of the containing container is formed with a step about 1 mm above the periphery of the bottom surface. A combustion cartridge body in which a candle combustion body having the same specification as that of the sample of Example 2 is bonded and fixed to the inner bottom portion of the combustion body container having the same specification as that of the sample of Example 1 by the hot melt method is referred to as Example 3 sample.

One by one was loaded and held.
After the nine samples were ignited, they were burned for 4 to 5 hours under an airflow with a wind speed of about 0.6 m / sec from diagonally above, and the state was observed.
[0022]
In all of the Comparative Example 2 samples, the combustor container was violently thermally deformed inward and could not maintain a normal combustion state, and was interrupted in about 3 hours.
In addition, in the sample of Example 2, almost no thermal deformation was observed in all three candle burning container storage containers. In addition, the heat of the washer, which has become a high temperature due to the metal washer being heated by the combustion flame at the end of combustion, is transmitted to the three-dimensional design body such as a candle shape, so that the lower portion of the three-dimensional design body upper surface recess Although all three softening or slight melting sites were observed, the combustor container was easily taken out from the concave portion on the upper surface of the three-dimensional design body.
On the other hand, in all of the three samples in Example 3, the candle burning container is hardly subject to thermal deformation even during the combustion process, and the heat of the metal washer heated by the combustion flame is directly applied to the three-dimensional sample. Since it is not transmitted to the lower part of the washer of the upper surface of the design body, there is almost no softening or melting by heat, and it is very easy to take out the combustion container container from the upper surface recess of the three-dimensional design body. The durability of use was confirmed.
[0023]
