Definitions

  • the invention relates to a candle-like light according to the preamble of claim 1 or 11.
  • Lights of this type are known and are used, for example, as emergency lights, but also frequently as grave lights.
  • the invention aims to improve the functionality of a light of the type mentioned in the introduction.
  • a closed, preferably hermetically sealed, space is formed in the container lid, which serves to accommodate the matches and also to accommodate the associated friction surface, provided the matches are so-called safety matches, which ignite only on a special friction surface can be.
  • the matches can be accommodated individually or in the form of a matchstick in the closed area of the container lid, together with the friction surface (if necessary).
  • the matches which are particularly sensitive to moisture, and possibly also the friction surfaces, which are also particularly sensitive to moisture, are accommodated in the container lid, so that the matches and, if necessary, the necessary friction surface are stored in the container lid even in the event of prolonged storage of the light remain fully functional and lighting of the light is possible at any time. This is of particular importance when using the light as an emergency light. Because of the small volume which the area which is closed to the outside and which serves to hold the matches and possibly also the friction surface must be free, it is without it is also possible to seal this area not only moisture-tight, but also absolutely airtight to the outside in such a way that no moisture can form within this area due to condensation separation.
  • the accommodation of the matches and possibly also the necessary friction surface in the closed area of the container lid has the advantage that, when several lights are used at the same time, only one sealed lid area comprising the matches and the associated friction surface has to be opened, while the corresponding areas of the container lid the other lights remain closed.
  • the area of the container lid which has the matches and possibly also the friction surface is preferably formed or closed by a film consisting of plastic or having at least one plastic layer, wherein in the case of a container lid made of plastic or having at least one plastic layer, this film is preferably attached to the container lid by welding is.
  • This design has the advantage that the techniques known and proven for packaging food, for example, for welding the matches and possibly also the friction surfaces in the closed container lid area can be used.
  • the light 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 consists of a container element 2, which is made of a transparent material, preferably made of transparent plastic, has an essentially circular cylindrical shape on its peripheral surface 3 and is provided with a closed bottom 4.
  • the interior of the container element is filled with a combustible material 6, such as wax, paraffin, stearin, fat and / or tallow.
  • a wick 7 is provided there, so that a candle is formed in the interior of the container element 2, which, however, fills only part of the interior of the container, so that in the upper region, ie in the region of the upper opening or mouth of the container element 2 in the interior this container element remains a free space 8.
  • the container element 2 is closed at its mouth or top by a container lid 9, which is made of a suitable material, for example made of plastic, and with its lid edge 10 in a suitable manner at the mouth of the container element 2, for example by elastic latching on a muzzle bead, etc. is held.
  • the container lid 9 is provided with an inwardly drawn trough-like section 11, which extends into the free space 8 and forms a chamber 12 which is open towards the top of the container lid 9 and which, in the embodiment shown, has a rectangular cross section in plan view.
  • This chamber 12 is absolutely sealed to the interior of the container element 2 or to the free space 8 by the material of the container lid 9 and to the outside of the container lid by a film 13 welded onto the top of the container lid or secured in another suitable manner there.
  • the film 13, which has a tab-like section 14 projecting beyond the outer surface of the container lid 9, is made of such a material and / or is fastened to the container lid 9 in such a way that the film 13 forms a zipper, ie the chamber 12 by grasping the film on Section 14 and by tearing this film from the container lid 9 can be opened.
  • some matches 15 are loosely accommodated in the chamber 12.
  • a friction surface 16 for igniting the matches 15 is provided on the upper side of the container lid 9, specifically in an area which is likewise sealed or closed off by the film 13 when the chamber is closed, and preferably in a recess in the lid.
  • the material forming the friction surface 16 can be applied directly to the relevant area of the container lid 9. If the friction surface 16 or the material forming this friction surface and necessary for igniting the safety matches 15 has a separate carrier, for example made of cardboard, the friction surface with this carrier is in the area in question Top of the container lid (preferably in a corresponding recess) attached in a suitable manner, for example by gluing.
  • a matchbook can also be accommodated in the chamber 12 closed by the film 13, which matchbox then has a plurality of detachable matches and at least one friction surface.
  • the container lid can also be designed in such a way that the chamber 12 is not formed by the inwardly drawn section 11 of the container lid, but rather by a cup-like one produced, for example, by deep drawing Material blank 11a, for example foil blank, which is fastened to the inside of the container lid in a suitable manner, as shown in FIG. 4 for the container lid 9a.
  • the chamber 12 can then be opened by tearing off this film section 11a.
  • Fig. 5 shows a lid 9b, which can be used in the light 1 instead of the lid 9.
  • the chamber 12 which serves to hold the matches 15 and also has the friction surface 16
  • the cover 9b is not closed by the film 13 or a corresponding film section, but by a plate-shaped closure element 17, which is also made of plastic and which, when the cover 9b is closed extends over the entire diameter of the lid and extends at both ends to the edge of the lid and is rounded off there accordingly.
  • the closure element 17 is also aligned with its upper side also with the upper side of the cover 9b facing away from the container element 2.
  • the closure element has, on the underside in the embodiment shown, two strip-like projections 18 projecting beyond this underside and already extending over the entire length of the closure element, each of which protrudes into a side of the chamber 12 molded in the lid 9 ', closed at both ends and only open towards the top of the lid recess 19 and there with its remaining closure element 17 distant free edge, which is designed as a strip-shaped catch, engages behind a locking surface in the recess 19, so that everyone web-like projection 18 together with the recess 19 and taking into account the inherent elasticity of the plastic material forms a resilient latching or snap connection.
  • Fig. 7 shows in a simplified representation and in plan view a lid 9c, which can be used instead of the lid 9, 9a or 9b.
  • the cover 9c is designed similarly to the cover 9b, but differs from the cover 9b in that the friction surface 16 extends only over part of the length of the chamber 12 and, in addition, the region having this friction surface 16 on one side of the chamber 12 has a projection 21 which protrudes beyond the surface 22 of the rest of the area provided to the side of the chamber 12 and faces the top of the cover 9c and on which the friction surface 16 is provided.
  • the closure element 17 not only is the closure element fitted, but not only the chamber 12, but also the region having the friction surface 16, ie the projection 21 provided with the friction surface 16, are covered by the closure element 17.
  • the friction surface 16 lies approximately at the same level as the surface 23 which the cover 9c has on its edge in the region of the two narrow sides of the chamber 12.
  • the projection 21 provides additional security that the friction surface 16 is kept dry.
  • the chamber 12 and the lateral areas also covered by the closure element 17 on the two narrow sides of the chamber 12, i.e. in the area of the surfaces 23 hermetically sealed to the outside in that the cover element 17 there has on its underside a projection 24 which bears against a surface 25 which forms the inner surface of the chamber 12 and the adjacent areas and merges into the projections 18 .
  • the light 101 shown in FIG. 9 consists of a container element 102, which is made of transparent plastic and has a circular-cylindrical circumferential surface 103 and a closed bottom 104. At the top, the container element 102 is closed by a removable cover 105. The interior of the container element 102 is filled with wax, stearin and / or tallow 106. In addition, a wick is provided there, so that a candle is formed in the interior of the container element 102, which, however, fills only part of the interior of the container element, so that a space 108 remains below the lid 105. In this free space 108 a matchstick 109 is packed with some matches and an associated friction surface. This matchstick letter 109 is thus captively accommodated in the container element 102, which in particular is also sealed moisture-tight, and is sold with the light 101, so that the user also has the fire required to light the light 101.
  • matchbox 109 a small matchbox with matches with a friction surface can also be used.
  • the cover 9, 9a, 9b, 9c or 105 preferably including the closure element present, is made of a rotable material, preferably of rotable plastic, for example of polystyrene with an easily rotable filler, e.g. based on cellulose.
