Abstract

An upper candle holder (I) and a lower candle holder (II) press together by cords (11) a candle (8) by its own weight, which is held hanging. A heat conductor (1) inserted in the upper candle holder (I) heats the outer wax layers and supplies them to the flame (7), thus ensuring complete burning of the wax.

CANDLES BURNING HELP

The present invention relates to a Kerzenabbrennhilfe, due to named as "candle crown".

In conventional candles dripping wax is formed in thin versions, which often has to be laboriously removed.

For thicker and thick candles there is always an edge, which must always be removed to keep the candle in function.

The soft edge leads to gimmicks on the candle, causing additional wax loss, graffiti and fire hazard is caused.

The invention has set itself the task of ensuring that even very inexpensive candles or wax blocks, without unnecessary loss of wax, burn off completely, aesthetically pleasing and safe.

The invention solves the problem by means of a Kerzenabbrennhilfe with the features of claim 1.

The invention thus an upper and a lower candle holder, which squeeze by two or more cords in the wrong train principle a candle by the total weight, which is held hanging.

The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1-7.

The upper candle holder (I) consisting of heat conductor (1), holder ring (4), tube (2), weight (3) is placed on a candle (8).

All parts can be interchangeable or interconnected. By differently executed heat conductors they can be adapted to the needs of the candle (8), (large or small flame pattern (7)) as well as the user habits (long or short burning time). Of course, at any time a second heat conductor (1) can also be placed on top of it.

The top cord (11) may be made up of a single long cord (11) or two or more shorter straps.

The coming from above line (11) can be made of a single long string (11) or two or more shorter strings.

Figures (1, 2, 3 and 4) show a single continuous line (11), starting from the ring (21) through the lock (20) and holder (19) down through the bore (5) at the top Candle holder (I) over the bolt (10a) on the lower candle holder (II) back up over the upper bolt (10) further down through the bore (6) to the bore (6a) above the upper bolt (10c) over the lower bolt (10b) again through the upper bore (5a) for suspension by the holder (19) and locking (20) on the ring (21) ends again.

In the lower candle holder (II), the candle (8) with a retaining ring (2a) is kept centered. This retaining ring (2a) can be performed by inserting tighter retaining rings for holding thinner candles. The candle (8) can of course be held by a depression in the lower weight (3).

For simplistic drawing and for better stability, another suspension via the bore (5b + 5c) and bolts (10d + 1 Of) is located.

But it is also sufficient that 2 or 3 shorter cords (11) from above via hole (5) 1/7 Austrian Patent Office AT508 206B1 2011-04-15 and bolts (10a) are attached to the upper bolt (10) or again leading down in the bore (6) are attached. As a result, the pressure force can be changed by means of pulley effects.

When the wick (19) of the candle (8) is lit, the heat conductor (1) oriented towards the flame (7) heats up and releases the heat to the outer wax layers of the candle (8). The wax on the edge of the candle is thereby kneadably soft in the desired time. Due to the weight of the " Candle Crown " the wax is pressed inwards over the retaining ring (4) and the heat conductor (1) and liquefied by the flame (7), at the same time slides the upper candle holder (I) on the shaft of the candle down. FIG. 4 shows further additional functions for a hanging " candle crown " on. The suspension (19) suspended from a wall bracket (24) is shown as a possible embodiment with a tube (19) connected to a ring (21). This suspension takes on the tackle cords (11) and can be pulled up with a ring (21), which in turn is fixed with a lock (20). As a result, the holding height of the candle can be adapted to the needs. Just below the suspension (19) further tubes (16) are connected together and placed on the upper candle holder (I).

This two or more legged tube frame (16) can be plugged through longitudinal slots subsequently on the strings (11) and executed in various forms. The cords (11) run in these tubes and are thus protected from excessive heat. The cords (11) can be pinched by twisting the bolts (10 a, b, etc.,), resulting in a transport of the " candle crown " facilitated. The tube rack allows a variety of additional applications, such as hanging crystals (23), wind chimes, incense or liquid bowls, reflectors or as a cooker for cookware, etc., summarized "anything that highlights the light of the flame, or anything that uses their heat. " The upper candle holder (I) and the lower candle holder (II) also allow various additional applications. For example, the weight (3) may be formed as a shell, or the like may be attached. Suspended in the garden as a lantern with wind (17) and rain cover (16), the " Candle Crown " also be used as a water trough or for bird feeding.

FIG. 5 shows a " candle crown " with a transparent windshield (17) held by the tube rack (16) and a rain cover (17a) placed on top. As a result, the candle crown can be carried in the hand like a lantern or hung in the open air. Of course it can also be parked free. The function will not be affected, the function will remain upright, but it will allow the candle to fall over.

Next, it is illustrated here how a wax ornament (14) is peeled off by the downward sliding of the upper candle holder (I) through the tube (2) with a pointed enlargement (15).

FIG. 5 shows one of many possible variants of the automatic extinguishment of the flame (7) after a desired burning time. It works in the following way: A gauge strip (22) connected to the support (19) is passed through the tube rack (16) at the top. The trigger head (5) is held in the inner region of the tube rack (16) by the locking screw (6) on the gauge strip (22). Due to the downward movement of the " Candle Crown " the tube rack (16) is stopped by the trigger head (5). The tube rack (16) begins slowly from the " Candle Crown " withdraw. A reflector as a lid (18) is biased by a leaf spring (28) and held by the trigger-seriegel (5a). This cover (18), by releasing it from the release latch (5a), will fold down onto the crown of the candle and choke the flame. In addition, this protects the burner plate from contamination. To re-light the rain and wind protection (17 + 17a) can be easily lifted up. The whole tube rack (16) can be additionally pushed upwards with the release head (5) and fixed there. With 2/7
