Abstract

The separately mounted lights (10-12), with each comprising a dish with wick and wax arranged in at least one group of two lights vertically spaced relative to each other so that the heat from each lower light melts the wax of the upper candle. The lights are pref. enclosed by transparent tubular sections (20). The holder is mounted on a solid lead base or similar for stability. It can be designed with suitable hanger to produce a hanging light. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Leuchter mit einer Mehrzahl von separat voneinander angeordneten Lichten, die jeweils einen napfförmigen Behälter mit Docht und Wachs od.dgl. aufweisen.The invention relates to a candlestick with a plurality of separately arranged lights, each a cup-shaped container with wick and wax or the like. exhibit.

Bei mehrflammigen Kerzenleuchtern ist es üblich, die einzelnen Lichter räumlich voneinander getrennt anzuordnen, um zu verhindern, daß die von der Flamme einer Kerze erzeugte und abgestrahlte Wärme zur Verformung der benachbarten Kerzen führt.In the case of multi-flame candlesticks, it is customary to arrange the individual lights spatially separate from one another in order to prevent the heat generated and radiated by the flame of a candle from leading to deformation of the adjacent candles.

Die Erfindung befaßt sich mit einem Leuchter der eingangs genannten Art, bei welchem sichergestellt werden soll, daß die einzelnen Lichte vollkommen abbrennen können.The invention relates to a candlestick of the type mentioned, in which it is to be ensured that the individual lights can burn off completely.

Erreicht wird dies dadurch, daß die Lichte in mindestens einer Gruppe aus zwei Lichten im wesentlichen vertikal untereinander in einem solchen Abstand zueinander angeordnet sind, daß das jeweils untere Licht das obere Licht thermisch so weit beeinflußt, daß dessen Wachs erschmolzen wird, und daß vorzugsweise die Lichte von Rohrstücken aus durchsichtigem Material umgeben sind.This is achieved in that the lights in at least one group of two lights are arranged substantially vertically with one another at such a distance from one another that the respective lower light thermally influences the upper light to such an extent that its wax is melted, and that preferably the Lights are surrounded by pieces of pipe made of transparent material.

Durch die räumliche Nähe erwärmt die jeweils untere Brennstelle die darüberliegende Brennstelle derart, daß sich das Wachs in dem napfförmigen Behälter verflüssigt und dadurch ein vollständiges Abbrennen erreicht wird.Due to the spatial proximity, the respective lower focal point heats the focal point above it in such a way that the wax liquefies in the cup-shaped container and complete burning is thereby achieved.

Der Abstand zwischen den einzelnen Lichten in vertikaler Richtung kann gemäß der Erfindung auch so gewählt werden, daß die unteren Abstände größer als die oberen Abstände sind, da das Verflüssigen des Wachses auch bei einer solchen Anordnung als Folge der nach oben aufsteigenden erwärmten Luft eintritt.The distance between the individual lights in the vertical direction can also be chosen according to the invention so that the lower distances are greater than the upper distances are because the liquefaction of the wax occurs even with such an arrangement as a result of the heated air rising upwards.

Die Erfindung wird nachstehend an Hand der Zeichnung beispielsweise erläutert.The invention is explained below with reference to the drawing, for example.

Die Figur zeigt eine schaubildliche Darstellung eines Leuchters gemäß der Erfindung.The figure shows a diagrammatic representation of a chandelier according to the invention.

Am unteren Ende des Leuchters befindet sich ein Fuß 30, der auf einer waagerechten Fläche aufruhen kann. Es kann sich hierbei um einen Bleifuß oder irgendeine Ausbildungsform handeln, die dafür sorgt, daß der Schwerpunkt des gesamten Leuchters möglichst tief liegt.At the lower end of the candlestick there is a foot 30 which can rest on a horizontal surface. It can be a lead foot or some form of training that ensures that the center of gravity of the entire candlestick is as low as possible.

Mit 10, 11 und 12 sind napfförmige Lichte bezeichnet, so wie sie im Handel als Teelichte erhältlich sind. Diese Lichte ruhen auf im wesentlichen kreisförmigen Tellern, die wiederum in der gezeigten Ausführungsform mit drei vertikal ausgerichteten Stäben verbunden sind. Die Stäbe erstrecken sich vom Fuß 30 nach oben und bilden somit ein Gerüst für die einzelnen Teller und die Lichte.With 10, 11 and 12 are cup-shaped lights, as they are commercially available as tea lights. These lights rest on essentially circular plates, which in turn are connected to three vertically oriented rods in the embodiment shown. The bars extend from the foot 30 upwards and thus form a framework for the individual plates and the lights.

In der Figur ist die obere Brennstelle 10 von einem durchsichtigen Ring 20 umgeben. Dieser Ring kann geschlossen oder geteilt sein, so daß er auch ebensogut an den Brennstellen 11 und 12 angeordnet werden könnte. Der Ring sorgt für ein ruhiges Abbrennen der Flamme, da er verhindert, daß seitlich gerichtete Luftströme die Flamme treffen können. Auch könnte eine Röhre aus durchsichtigem Material eingesetzt werden, die sich vom Fuß 30 bis nach oben hin erstreckt.In the figure, the upper focal point 10 is surrounded by a transparent ring 20. This ring can be closed or divided so that it could just as well be arranged at the focal points 11 and 12. The ring ensures that the flame burns quietly, as it prevents air currents from the side from hitting the flame. A tube made of transparent material could also be used, which extends from the foot 30 upwards.

Die in der Figur gezeigten Abstände zwischen den einzelnen Brennstellen 10, 11 und 12 können in einer praktischen Ausführungsform im Bereich von 5 bis 30 cm liegen, wobei diese Abstände hier nur beispielsweise genannt worden sind.In a practical embodiment, the distances between the individual focal points 10, 11 and 12 shown in the figure can be in the range from 5 to 30 cm, these distances only being mentioned here for example.

Es liegt auch im Rahmen der vorliegenden Erfindung, den Leuchter als Kerzenanhänger auszubilden, anstatt ihn auf einen Tisch zu stellen.It is also within the scope of the present invention to design the candlestick as a pendant instead of placing it on a table.

Nach Anzünden der Lichte 10, 11 und 12 werden die Lichte 11 und 12 erwärmt und das zuvor feste Wachs wird flüssig und kann daher vollständig ausbrennen. Das nicht derartig erwärmte Licht 12 kann später auf einen der oberen Plätze gesetzt werden.After lighting lights 10, 11 and 12, lights 11 and 12 are heated and the previously solid wax becomes liquid and can therefore burn out completely. The light 12 not heated in this way can later be placed in one of the upper places.
