is achieved in that the drip guard has the shape of a has substantially annular disc, the inner ring edge of which rests flush with the candleholder base

and its lower top surface aligned approximately parallel or at the same level to the installation surface of the candlestick is. The basic idea of the invention is therefore first of all, candlesticks and drip protection respectively to be designed as separate parts. The drip guard can easily be removed from the candlestick for cleaning

removed. A candle residue remaining inside the candlestick does not need to be removed for this to become. A new candle can easily be placed in the candlestick ·. This is especially the case then Case when the candle base is cup-shaped. The drip protection can consist of a plastic. He however, it can also be made of paper or cardboard in the same way, which means that it can be used as a disposable drip guard is favored.

This can also be indicated by an imprint on the upper surface of the disc flange serve as drip protection. This imprint can, for example, be a Christmas decor, a congratulatory motif Playing card motif or the like. being.

The inner ring edge of the drip protection surrounds usefully the candlestick base firmly. For this purpose, the circumference of the candlestick base can become the installation surface be designed to widen slightly conically. On the one hand, this makes it easier to slide open the drip protection from above onto the perimeter of the candlestick. On the other hand, this prevents the drip guard from falling down unintentionally from the candlestick and thus its unintentional detachment from the candlestick base. In this way it is ensured that when the candlestick is lifted, the drip guard is always raised with it. Wherever you go Candlestick stands, it is always surrounded by a drip guard. The adhesive connection between the drip protection and the base of the candlestick then forms a liquid Wax not to be penetrated butt joint if the adhesive fit over the entire circumference of the candlestick is present. This fuse also serves the further feature that the contour shape of the inner ring edge of the drip protection is designed as a negative to the outer contour of the candlestick base.

The flush installation of the drip protection on the candlestick

foot generally also serves to secure the centered Position of the drip protection opposite the candlestick without any corresponding alignment work on the table decoration required, such as when positioning a candlestick on a mat would be the case.

An alternative solution provides that between the inner ring edge and the lower disk top surface of the drip protection a paragraph is provided and that the paragraph rests on a projection on the candlestick. This paragraph can also be designed in steps.

The upper disc cover surface of the drip protection can be concave, e.g. to allow the liquid candle wax to step over in the case of heavily dripping candles over the outer edge of the drip protection.

The subject matter of the invention is explained in more detail with reference to the figures. Show it:

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the candlestick according to the invention.

FIG. 2 shows a vertical section through the candlestick according to FIG. 1

FIG. 3 shows a detailed illustration corresponding to circle III in FIG. 2 of a modified embodiment.

The candlestick 1 has the shape of the foot of the Candle 2 surrounding mugs on. Dar candlestick children 1 is provided with a drip protection 3 »The drip protection 3 is designed in the form of a substantially annular disc, the inner annular edge 4 in the region of the The foot 5 of the candlestick 1 rests flush with the candlestick 1 and with its lower top surface 6 approximately level with the installation surface 7 of the candlestick | 1 is aligned.

The flush system of the drip protection 3 on the candlestick 1 can be ensured that the inner ring edge 4 of the drip protection 1 is adherent surrounds the foot 5 of the candlestick 1, that is to say rests against the outer circumferential surface 7 of the candlestick 1.

However, another solution is also possible in which a flush installation between the drip protection 3 and candlestick 1 is given without, however, the system is adherent. This embodiment looks before that between the inner ring edge 4 un ^ the lower Disk top surface 6 of the drip protection 3 a paragraph 8 is provided. The shoulder 8 can also be designed in a stepped manner.
