Definitions

  • the present invention relates to candles, with particular reference to smoke-eating candles and ornamental candles.
  • the candles are no longer used for lighting, but mainly for scenting rooms or as particularly precious ornamental objects, with lighting function being only secondary.
  • the smoke-eating candles for instance, are particular scented candles which, when lighted in a close environment full of smoke, purify the air burning the carbonaceous particles suspended in the air.
  • Patent Application No. 11794 B/88 filed in Florence on December 19, 1988 by Savana S.r.l. describes a wax smoke-eating candle, which features a chamber made thereinside, open at the bottom of the candle, aimed at housing any kind of articles.
  • the candle After having put the article inside the chamber, accessible from the bottom of the candle, the candle is closed by auto adhesive labels made of felt, punched to measure, or by fixing plugs made of gum or plastic material.
  • the upper part of the candle is equipped with a wick for lighting thereof.
  • the very hot wax entering the chamber can also leave it through the auto adhesive felt labels, which constitutes burning risk for the users.
  • the object of the present invention is to propose a candle, in particular smoke-eating, which avoids the above mentioned disadvantages and which allows to house different articles and, at the same time, ensures strength and nice aspect.
  • Another object of the present invention is to propose a candle, which, when is lit, does not cause any damage to the articles contained therein, and consequently, avoids any risk of accidents to the users.
  • the reference numeral 1 indicates the proposed candle, in particular smoke-eating, for instance cylindrical, equipped with a wick 1a, which protrudes from the upper part of the candle 1 and extends inside and along the body thereof.
  • At least one capsule 3 is dipped in the body of the candle 1, near its edge.
  • the capsule 3 contains at least one article, preferably a gift and fancy goods or a piece of paper with a message.
  • the capsule 3, whose contents can be seen, is preferably formed by two semi-shells 3a, 3b, which are tightened firmly and removingly in the capsule median area.
  • the semi-shells 3a, 3b, forming the capsule 3, are for instance either ovoid or spherical, or cylindrical ( Figure 1).
  • the main object of the proposed candle 1 is to contain, dipped in its body, near its edge 1b, one or more capsules 3, situated at different levels and aimed at being uncovered and removed from the candle body by the gradual burning of the wick 1a and, consequently, by the gradual consumption of the candle.
  • the capsules 3 can spontaneously pass, due to the gravity, from a dipped configuration A, in which they are dipped in the body of the candle 1, to a free configuration B, in which they are released from body of the candle 1 ( Figure 2).
  • the article, or articles are dipped directly in the body of the candle 1, near its edge 1b.
  • the dipped articles are not protected from the heat and wax, therefore they must have particular physical and structural characteristics.
  • the above described candle in particular smoke-eating, allows to be advantageously associated with different articles, without losing its strong structure.
  • the package of each candle can be provided with information about the kind of article and/or message, which the candle releases gradually during the wax burning.
  • the transversal dimensions of the candle can be increased, thus increasing the number of possible capsules to dip in the candle body.
  • the articles associated to the candles, dipped directly or contained in dipped capsules, are not damaged in any way during the candle lighting.
