Abstract

An ignition aid comprises a paraffin soaked wood wool cord section. The circumference of the wood wool cord section has numerous wood shavings (1, 2) covered with paraffin, and the paraffin density is greater in the middle of the cord than at the edges. The aid is formed by dipping the cord (4) into warm liquid paraffin (8) in a bath (7), removing it, allowing it to cool, and then cutting it into sections (9-11).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anzündhilfe zum Anzünden von festen Brennstoffen gemäß Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 sowie ein Verfahren zur dessen Herstellung.The invention relates to an ignition aid for igniting solid fuels according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for its production.

Es sind flüssige und auch als Festkörper ausgebildete Anzündhilfen bekannt, die zum Anzünden von festen Brennstoffen, wie Holz, Holzkohle und Kohle, verwendet werden können. Zum Anzünden des Brennstoffs eines Holzkohle-Gartengrills kann beispielsweise eine handelsübliche Anzündhilfe zwischen den Brennstoff gesetzt und angezündet werden. Bis eine solche Anzündhilfe gut brennt, dauert es oft eine gewisse Zeit, so dass erst dann weitere Brennstoffe aufgelegt werden können. Bei einer Anwendung im Freien ist es auch durch störende Windbeeinflussung oft schwierig, eine solche Anzündhilfe zu entflammen.There are liquid and also known as solid firelighters known for Lighting solid fuels such as wood, charcoal and coal can be. Can be used to light the fuel of a charcoal barbecue for example, a commercial ignition aid between the fuel and be lit. It often takes a certain amount of time before such a kindling starts Time so that more fuels can only be added afterwards. At a Outdoor use is often difficult due to wind interference, to kindle such a starter.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Anzündhilfe zum Anzünden von festen Brennstoffen zu schaffen, die sich problemlos anzünden lässt und möglichst schnell eine hinreichende große und standfeste Flamme erzeugt.The invention has for its object a lighting aid for lighting to create solid fuels that can be easily ignited and if possible quickly produces a sufficiently large and stable flame.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erhält man durch die im Anspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmale. Die Anzündhilfe ist ein mit Paraffin getränkter naturbelassener Holzwolle-Seilabschnitt mit einer definierten Restfeuchte, bei dem das Paraffin einen festen, wachsartigen Paraffinkern bildet. An dem Holzwolle-Seilabschnitt stehen einzelne Holzwollespäne ab, die ebenfalls mit Paraffin benetzt sind und somit einfach und sicher entzündet werden können. Die Anzündhilfe hat den großen Vorteil, dass sich die Flamme nach dem Anzünden auf Grund der abstehenden Holzwollespäne sehr schnell über ihre gesamte Oberfläche verteilt und somit schnell eine sichere und standfeste Flamme entsteht.The solution to this problem is obtained by the specified in claim 1 Characteristics. The ignition aid is a natural wood wool rope section soaked in paraffin with a defined residual moisture, in which the paraffin has a firm, wax-like paraffin core. Individuals stand on the wood wool rope section Wood shavings, which are also wetted with paraffin and therefore simple and can be ignited safely. The kindling aid has the great advantage that the flame after lighting due to the protruding wood shavings quickly distributed over their entire surface and thus quickly a safe and stable flame is created.

Sehr vorteilhaft ist es, dass die Anzündhilfe eine im Inneren höhere Paraffindichte hat, als in ihrem äußeren Bereich. Diese Maßnahme trägt dazu bei, dass die Anzündhilfe schnell eine verhältnismäßig große Flamme nach dem Anzünden entwickelt, wobei die hohe Paraffindichte im Innern der Anzündhilfe dafür sorgt, dass diese eine lange Brenndauer von mehreren Minuten hat.It is very advantageous that the ignition aid has a higher paraffin density inside, than in their outer area. This measure contributes to the lighting aid quickly developed a relatively large flame after lighting, the high density of paraffin inside the igniter ensures that it lasts a long time Burning time of several minutes.

Vorzugsweise wird zur Herstellung der Anzündhilfe ein hoch raffiniertes Paraffin verwendet, welches einen Reinheitsgrad besitzt, wie er auch in der Lebensmittelindustrie gefordert wird. Zuschlagstoffe, wie Farbpigmente, Duftstoffe oder andere chemische, brandbeschleunigende Zusätze, finden keine Verwendung. Die Schadstoff-Emission beim Abbrand ist somit äußerst gering.A highly refined paraffin is preferably used to produce the ignition aid used, which has a degree of purity, as in the Food industry is required. Additives such as color pigments, fragrances or other chemical, fire-accelerating additives are not used. The Pollutant emissions during combustion are therefore extremely low.

Das verwendete Paraffin ist vorzugsweise ein Hartparaffin, dessen Schmelzpunkt über 60 C liegt. Dadurch wird sichergestellt, dass das Paraffin auch bei hohen Umgebungstemperaturen während der Lagerhaltung sich nicht verflüssigt. Die Anzündhilfe ist bei normalen Lagerbedingungen unbegrenzt lagerbar ohne Verlust ihrer Eigenschaften und Brennfähigkeit. Flüchtige brennbare Stoffe, wie in anderen Anzündhilfen, sind nicht vorhanden.The paraffin used is preferably a hard paraffin whose melting point is above 60 C. This will ensure that the paraffin wax is present even at high Ambient temperatures are not liquefied during storage. The Fire starter can be stored indefinitely without loss under normal storage conditions their properties and flammability. Volatile flammable substances, like in others Firelighters are not available.

Bedingt durch den Verzicht auf Zuschlagstoffe, wie Farbpigmente, Duftstoffe oder andere chemische, brandbeschleunigende Zusätze, ist die Anzündhilfe weitgehend geruchsneutral. Bei der Handhabung überträgt sich kein unangenehmer Geruch auf die Haut und die Umgebung. Due to the absence of additives such as color pigments, fragrances or other chemical, fire accelerating additives, the kindling aid is largely odorless. When handling, no unpleasant smell is transferred to the Skin and the environment.

Zum Anzünden von Holz- und Holzkohlefeuem haben sich Anzündhilfen mit einer Länge von ca. 50 mm und einem Durchmesser von ca. 25 - 30 mm bewährt, wobei je nach Anwendungsfall auch andere Abmessungen sinnvoll sein können. Der Paraffingehalt liegt hier zwischen 10 - 14 Gramm, je nach gewünschter Abbranddauer der Anzündhilfe.Ignition aids have been used to light wood and charcoal fires Length of approx. 50 mm and a diameter of approx. 25 - 30 mm have proven their worth other dimensions can be useful depending on the application. The Paraffin content here is between 10 - 14 grams, depending on the desired burn time the kindling aid.

Der naturbelassene Holzwollespan erhält durch die Paraffinierung eine Konservierung. Der natürlich bedingte bakterielle Zerfall der Holzstruktur und der Holzfasern wird durch den Ausschluss von Sauerstoff unterbrochen. Der Befall von Schädlingen ist ausgeschlossen. Hierdurch ist die Anzündhilfe zeitlich unbegrenzt lagerbar.The natural wood wool chip is preserved by the paraffin treatment. The natural bacterial decay of the wood structure and the wood fibers becomes interrupted by the exclusion of oxygen. The infestation of pests is locked out. As a result, the ignition aid can be stored indefinitely.

Der Erfindung liegt weiterhin die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Anzündhilfe anzugeben, welches eine möglichst einfache und damit kostengünstige Herstellung zulässt.The invention is also based on the object of a method for the production a kindling, which is as simple as possible and therefore allows inexpensive production.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erhält man durch die im Anspruch 7 angegebenen Verfahrensschritte. Demnach wird zur Herstellung ein aus Holzwolle gefertigtes Seilstück in verflüssigtes Paraffin eingetaucht, wobei sich das Holzwolle-Seilstück je nach Eintauchdauer mehr oder weniger stark mit Paraffin tränkt. Der Paraffingehalt wird durch die Eintauchtemperatur maßgeblich beeinflusst. Nach dem Tauchvorgang wird der getauchte Seilabschnitt einer definierten Abkühlkurve ausgesetzt, die auch auf die beschriebenen Produkteigenschaften Einfluss hat. Der endgültig erstarrte Holzwollseil-Abschnitt wird anschließend in entsprechend kleine Teilstücke geschnitten, welche den Feueranzünder bzw. die Anzündhilfe bilden. Die Herstellung erfordert somit keinen hohen technischen Aurwand und kann problemlos maschinell oder in Handarbeit erfolgen. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass sowohl eine Großserienfertigung, aber eben auch eine Kleinstserienfertigung problemlos möglich ist. The solution to this problem is obtained by the specified in claim 7 Process steps. Accordingly, a made from wood wool is used for production Rope piece immersed in liquefied paraffin, with the wood wool rope piece each after immersion, soaked more or less strongly with paraffin. The paraffin content is significantly influenced by the immersion temperature. After the diving process the submerged rope section is exposed to a defined cooling curve, which also has an influence on the described product properties. The one that finally froze The wood wool rope section is then cut into correspondingly small sections cut, which form the fire lighter or the ignition aid. The production therefore does not require a high technical wall and can easily be machine or done by hand. This has the advantage that both Large series production, but also small series production possible without any problems is.

Mittels eines Tauchkorbs können mehrere Seilabschnitte gleichzeitig paraffiniert werden, was eine Zeitersparnis bei der Fertigung ergibt. Die Abtrennung der Teilstücke von dem paraffinierten Seilabschnitt kann mittels Band-, Kreis-, Dekupier-, Gattersäge oder mittels Scheiben- und Portionsschneider erfolgen.Using a diving basket, several rope sections can be paraffinated at the same time be, which results in a time saving in production. The separation of the Sections of the paraffined rope section can be done by means of ribbon, circular, decompression, Frame saw or slice and portion cutter.

Vorzugsweise wird zur Herstellung der Anzündhilfe ein langes, auf einer Rolle aufgewickeltes Holzwolleseil verwendet. Die Länge der Seilabschnitte werden der Größe des Tauchkorbes der Tauchanlage bzw. der nachfolgenden Sägeeinheit oder Schneideinheit angepasst.A long one on a roll is preferably used to produce the ignition aid used wooden wool rope used. The length of the rope sections will be the Size of the diving basket of the diving system or the subsequent saw unit or Cutting unit adapted.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert.The invention is illustrated below with the aid of one in the drawing Embodiment explained in more detail.

  • Figur 1 eine perspektivische Seitenansicht der erfindungsgemäßen Anzündhilfe,
  • Figur 2 die Schnittdarstellung der in Fig. 1 dargestellten Anzündhilfe,
  • Figur 3 eine schematische Darstellung des Paraffiniervorganges und
  • Figur 4 das fertig paraffinierte Seilstück mit mehreren Schnittpositionen zum Abschneiden in Teilabschnitte, welche dann als Anzündhilfe Verwendung finden.
    • Show it:
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective side view of the ignition aid according to the invention,
  • FIG. 2 shows the sectional illustration of the ignition aid shown in FIG. 1,
  • Figure 3 is a schematic representation of the waxing process and
  • Figure 4 shows the fully paraffinated piece of rope with several cutting positions for cutting into sections, which are then used as a starting aid.

    • Bei der in Figur 1 dargestellten Anzündhilfe ist insbesondere ersichtlich, dass an seiner Umfangsfläche mehrere Holzwollespäne 1, 2 abstehen, die mittels eines Streichholzes oder Feuerzeugs sehr leicht entzündet werden können. Der gesamte Körper der Anzündhilfe, der ein naturbelassener Holzwolle-Seilabschnitt ist, und auch die nach außen abstehenden Holzwollespäne 1, 2 sind mit Paraffin überzogen, wobei im Inneren der Anzündhilfe die Paraffindichte besonders hoch ist.In the case of the ignition aid shown in FIG. 1, it can be seen in particular that on its Several wooden wool shavings 1, 2 protrude circumferentially by means of a match or lighter can be ignited very easily. The entire body of the Ignition aid, which is a natural wood wool rope section, and also after Wood shavings 1, 2 protruding from the outside are covered with paraffin, being inside the paraffin density is particularly high.

    Die Ansicht des Schnittbildes von Figur 2 veranschaulicht die höhere Paraffindichte im Innern 3 der Anzündhilfe. Zur Mittelachse der Anzündhilfe kann auch die Spandichte zunehmen, so dass sich insgesamt ein mittlerer Kern ergibt, der eine höhere Materialdichte und somit eine lange Brenndauer hat.The view of the sectional view of Figure 2 illustrates the higher paraffin density inside 3 of the ignition aid. The central axis of the ignition aid can also be the Chip density increase, so that overall there is a middle core, the one higher material density and therefore a long burning time.

    Figur 3 zeigt nun das Prinzip, wie ein längeres, aus Holzwollespänen gedrehtes Seilstück 4, paraffinert wird. Das Seilstück 4 wird zu diesem Zweck gerade ausgerichtet in einen Tauchkorb 5 gelegt, dann in Pfeilrichtung 6 in ein Tauchbecken 7 so weit abgesenkt, dass das Seilstück 4 vollständig in das im Tauchbecken 7 befindliche flüssige Paraffin 8 eintaucht. Nach einer gewissen Tauchzeit wird der Tauchkorb 5 wieder in die dargestellte Position angehoben Das anschließende Abtropfen und der Abkühlprozess sind für die beschriebenen Eigenschaften der Anzündhilfe entscheidend. Nach dem Abkühlen ist der Seilabschnitt hart.Figure 3 now shows the principle of how a longer one, turned from wood wool shavings Rope piece 4, is paraffined. The rope piece 4 is straight for this purpose aligned in a plunge basket 5, then in the direction of arrow 6 in a plunge pool 7 lowered so far that the rope piece 4 completely in the plunge pool 7th liquid paraffin 8 immersed. After a certain diving time the Diving basket 5 raised again to the position shown The following Dripping and the cooling process are for the properties described Fire starter crucial. After cooling, the rope section is hard.

    Das Seilstück 4 lässt sich nun aus dem Tauchkorb 5 entnehmen und kann dann gemäß Figur 4 in mehrere Teilstücke 9 bis 11 entlang mehrerer Schnittebenen 12 zerschnitten werden. Jedes der so abgeschnittenen Teilstücke 9 bis 11 bildet dann eine erfindungsgemäße Anzündhilfe, wie sie in den Figuren 1 und 2 dargestellt ist.The piece of rope 4 can now be removed from the diving basket 5 and can then according to Figure 4 cut into several sections 9 to 11 along several cutting planes 12 become. Each of the sections 9 to 11 thus cut then forms one Ignition aid according to the invention, as shown in Figures 1 and 2.
