Description

  The present invention relates to an incense holder, and more particularly, to an incense holder for making incense sticks one by one.

  Incense sticks are sometimes burned for purposes such as aromatherapy and indoor fragrance. Conventionally, in general incense holders for Buddhist affairs, incense sticks were stabbed into the ash in the container. In aromatherapy, etc., an incense stick was put in a hole opened in an incense holder made of metal or earthenware. In these cases, the support part of the incense stick often remains unburned, and there is a problem that it cannot be burned to the end. To solve this problem, a carbon fiber non-woven sheet mat laminated in layers is bonded to the inner bottom surface of the container through a plate material made of a metal plate or a resin plate as shown in Patent Document 1. And the incense stick support tool which provided the cut | interruption in the surface and used as a support means of an incense stick was proposed. With this incense stick support tool, it was possible to stand a stick incense easily, stably and safely, and burned without leaving the incense stick remaining. However, as this incense stick support tool is used, the ash is pushed into the non-woven sheet, and the ash cannot be discharged from the cut, so it is troublesome to clean. It becomes impossible. In addition, if the ash of the cut is forcibly discharged, the cut becomes large and the incense stick falls down.

Then, this inventor proposed the incense holder for incense burners as shown to patent document 2. FIG. In this incense holder, the incense stick stands up straight and the glass fiber incense angle control guide that does not extinguish in the middle and the morning glory type three-stage aperture spiral that uses fine metal wires to prevent the incense stick from burning. And a protrusion that promotes the burning of the incense stick. With such an incense holder for an incense burner, the incense stick was erected upright and could be burned completely to the end by a spiral-shaped combustion cylinder with a morning glory type three-stage throttle. Moreover, since ash can be easily removed from the combustion cylinder, cleaning can be performed very easily.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-43036 JP 2001-252175 A

  However, in the morning glory type three-stage throttle spiral combustion cylinder, there is a problem that when the incense stick is tilted and inserted, the lower end of the incense stick is supported in a tilted state. Furthermore, since this combustion cylinder uses an extremely fine metal wire to burn the incense stick completely, there is a possibility that the combustion cylinder itself may be deformed if the incense stick is tilted and pushed hard, so handling it requires some care. there were.

  In addition, in order to stand a plurality of incense sticks, a plurality of combustion cylinders corresponding to the number of incense sticks are required. And there was a problem that the manufacturing process increased.

  In order to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide an incense holder that is easy to handle and can completely burn an incense stick even if the incense stick is tilted slightly.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, in the incense holder according to claim 1, one or more incense stick support holes for incense stick support having substantially the same diameter as the incense stick penetrating from the upper end face to the lower end face are formed. In a state where a breathable incense stick support part made of fibers, a bottom face part on which a nonflammable fiber abutted with a lower end part of the incense stick penetrated through the incense stick support hole, and the incense stick support hole are directed in the vertical direction And the lower end opening part of the said incense stick support hole was provided with the leg part which supports the said incense stick support part so that the space opened predetermined distance apart from the bottom face part, and was open | released.

  In the incense holder according to claim 2, in addition to the structure of the incense holder according to claim 1, the height h from the lower end opening portion to the bottom surface portion of the incense stick support hole is vertically below the lower end opening portion. The gist is that it is smaller than the distance r from the point on the bottom surface to the edge of the bottom surface.

  In the incense holder according to claim 3, in addition to the structure of the incense holder according to claim 1 or 2, the leg portion has a cylindrical shape provided with a discharge port communicating with the lower end opening. It is formed, and a side surface portion that supports the incense stick support portion from the side surface is provided continuously and integrally above the leg portion, and the bottom surface portion is provided at the lower end of the cylindrical leg portion. And

  The incense stick holder according to claim 4 has air permeability made of non-combustible fibers in which one or more incense stick support holes for incense stick support having a diameter substantially the same as the diameter of the incense stick penetrating from the upper end face to the lower end face are formed. The incense stick support portion and the incense stick support hole are vertically oriented, and the lower end opening of the incense stick support hole is spaced from the ground contact surface by a predetermined height to maintain a free space. The gist is provided with a leg portion that is placed and supports the incense stick support portion.

  The incense holder according to claim 5 is air permeable made of non-combustible fibers in which one or more incense stick support holes for incense stick support having substantially the same diameter as the incense stick penetrating from the upper end surface to the lower end surface are formed. An incense holder supporting an incense stick and an incense furnace containing ash for raising an incense stick, with the incense support hole oriented in the vertical direction, and the lower end opening of the incense stick support hole being spaced apart from the surface of the ash by a predetermined height And a leg portion that pierces the ash and supports the incense stick support portion so as to maintain an open space.

According to the incense holder of the present invention, there is an effect that handling is easy and the incense can be burned completely.
In the invention according to claim 1, the incense stick upright by the incense stick support hole is burned by supplying air through the breathable incombustible fiber of the incense stick support part. In this case, the combustion temperature is suppressed, and the components decomposed by heat and the like are completely burned in a state closed by ash, so that tar and the like are generated little and the ash remaining in the incense stick support hole is also contaminated with tar. There is nothing. Furthermore, since the lower end is supported by the bottom face portion on which the incombustible fiber is laid, there is an effect that the fire can be completely burned to the end without being extinguished by contact with the bottom face portion.

  And although the ash after combustion remains on a bottom face part, these can be easily excluded from the space under an incense stick support part. Also, the ash remaining in the incense stick support hole can be easily removed by inserting the incense stick when the next incense stick is sown. Therefore, there is an effect that it can always be used in a complete state without special cleaning.

In addition, since the lower end of the incense stick is supported by the surface of the bottom part, even if the incense stick inserted into the incense stick support hole is slightly inclined, there is an effect that the incense holder can be used without any trouble.
In the invention according to claim 2, in addition to the effect of the incense stick holder according to claim 1, the height h from the lower end opening portion to the bottom surface portion of the incense stick support hole is vertical to the lower end opening portion. Since it is configured to be smaller than the distance r from the lower point to the edge of the bottom surface portion, the burning of the incense has shifted to a portion below the lower end opening, and the ash after burning has collapsed and the remaining incense has collapsed Even in this case, since this incense stick is located in the bottom surface where the non-combustible fiber is laid, there is an effect that the combustion can be continued safely as it is.

  In the invention according to claim 3, in addition to the effect of the invention according to claim 1 or claim 2, the entire incense holder can be easily configured with one cylindrical member, so the number of parts is small and the production process is also reduced. Less. Therefore, there is an effect that production man-hours and production costs can be reduced.

  In the invention according to claim 4, it can be easily set on a flat dish or the like. In addition, there is an effect that the structure is further simple and the manufacturing can be easily performed at low cost. In this case, if the lower end of the incense stick is slightly protruded from the incense stick support part, there is an effect that the lower end of the incense stick does not disappear upon contact with a plate or the like, and burns completely.

  The invention according to claim 5 has an effect that the incense can be completely burned even in the case of an incense burner that can be easily set in an incense burner containing ash and the ash is moistened and hardened.

(First embodiment)
Hereinafter, the incense holder 1 which is one embodiment which actualized this invention is demonstrated according to FIGS. 1-4.

  FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an incense holder 1. The incense holder 1 includes an incense stick support portion 2 formed in a substantially columnar shape, a cylindrical tubular portion 3 fitted on the side surface thereof, and a pedestal 5 and a pedestal 5 disposed at the bottom of the tubular portion 3. And a bottom surface portion 4 disposed on the upper side.

  FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the incense holder 1. The incense holder 1 has a cylindrical portion 3 fitted to a pedestal 5, and a bottom portion 4 is formed by filling the bottom portion of the cylindrical portion 3 with nonflammable fibers. Moreover, the incense stick support part 2 is formed by filling the upper part of the cylindrical part 3 with nonflammable fibers. Upper end openings 22 a and 22 b are opened on the upper end surface 24 of the incense stick support unit 2.

  3 and 4 are cross-sectional views showing a vertical cross section of the incense holder 1 as viewed from line AA in FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, the incense stick support part 2 is penetrated by incense stick support holes 21 a and 21 b (hereinafter referred to as “incense stick support hole 21” unless otherwise distinguished). The upper end openings 22a and 22b of the end surface 24 (hereinafter referred to as “upper end openings 22” unless otherwise distinguished) are communicated. The incense stick support hole 21 is formed so that the incense stick is in the vertical direction when in use. The incense stick support hole 21 has an inner diameter that is approximately the same diameter as the outer diameter of the incense sticks S1 to S4 (hereinafter referred to as “incense stick S” unless otherwise specified). And it communicates with lower end openings 23a and 23b (hereinafter referred to as "lower end opening 23" unless otherwise specified) opened in the lower end surface 25 of the incense stick support part 2. The incense stick support hole 21 is formed by placing and solidifying a mandrel when the glass fiber is compressed. Alternatively, it may be formed by penetrating the shaft after being formed into a cylindrical shape.

  The cylindrical portion 3 is generally cylindrical as a whole, and its inner diameter is substantially the same as the outer diameter of the incense stick support portion 2. Further, in the upper fifth portion where the incense stick support part 2 is accommodated, a large number of vent holes 31 are perforated, and the incense stick support part 2 accommodated in the tubular part 3 extends from the vent hole 31. Exposed. The part in which the incense stick support part 2 is accommodated is a side face part 3a. The material of the cylindrical part 3 is made of synthetic resin such as PE, PET, PP, PS, vinyl chloride, metal, etc. because the heat of combustion of the incense stick S does not reach directly through the incombustible fiber of the incense stick support part 2. Various materials such as ceramic, glass, and wooden can be used.

  The lower part following the side surface part 3a of the cylindrical part 3 is provided with a leg part 3b provided continuously and integrally from the side surface part 3a. A discharge port 32 is opened in the leg 3b. The discharge port 32 is a pair of openings that are opened in a horizontal slit shape at positions opposed to each other in plan view within a range of a central angle of about 90 degrees at the center of the cylindrical portion 3. The discharge port 32 is opened at a position substantially corresponding to a space surrounded by the lower end surface 25 of the incense stick support portion 2 and the contact surface 41 of the bottom surface portion 4.

Moreover, the lower part from the discharge port 32 of the incense stick part 3b is formed in the cylindrical shape which followed the side part 3a which does not have an opening part.
As shown in FIG. 2, the pedestal 5 includes a disk-shaped base portion 51 having a larger diameter than the cylindrical portion 3 and an insertion portion formed in a cylindrical shape having the same outer shape as the inner diameter of the cylindrical portion 3 provided on the upper portion. 52. The base portion 51 is made of a metal such as gold, copper, iron, brass, lead, etc., and has a relatively large mass so that it does not fall over when an incense stick is raised. And the insertion part 52 of this base 5 is inserted in the lower end part of the cylindrical part 3. FIG.

The lower part of the leg part 3b of the cylindrical part 3 in which the insertion part 52 of the base 5 is inserted is filled with incombustible fibers, and as a result, the bottom part 4 is formed in a cylindrical shape.
The effect | action of the incense holder 1 comprised in this way is demonstrated. As shown in FIG. 3, the incense stick S1 is inserted from the upper end opening 22a until its lower end is inserted into the incense stick support hole 21a, and is inserted from the lower end opening 23a until it comes into contact with the abutment surface 41 of the bottom face part 4. The At this time, even if the incense stick S1 is not completely vertical, the incense stick support part 2 has elasticity, so that it is difficult to break the incense stick S1. Even if there is a slight inclination, the lower end of the incense stick S1 is surely brought into contact with and supported by the bottom surface portion 4 having a sufficient width. Furthermore, even if the lower end part of the incense stick S1 does not reach the bottom face part 4, it can be supported to the extent that the incense stick S1 does not fall down due to the elasticity of the incense stick support part 2, and no problem occurs. Moreover, since the bottom face part 4 is formed from a nonflammable fiber, there exists moderate elasticity and it is less likely to break the incense stick S1. From this state, the top of the incense stick is lit with a lighter or the like. Here, the combustion part F is exposed to the outside air.

  Next, as combustion progresses, combustion ash is generated, but generally collapses at 1 to 2 cm and falls downward, and is deposited around the upper end surface 24 of the incense stick support 2 and the incense stick holder 1. And if combustion progresses further, as shown to incense stick S2 of FIG. 3, the combustion part F will move inside the incense stick support hole 21b. At this time, since the non-combustible fiber has a low thermal conductivity, the amount of heat necessary for burning the incense stick S1 is not lost. Air necessary for combustion is supplied from the vent 31 to the combustion section F through the gaps between the non-combustible fibers of the incense stick support section 2. At this time, the combustion ash is maintained in the incense stick support hole 21b. The amount of air supplied at this time is slightly less than that when burning externally, and the combustion temperature also decreases. However, volatile combustion gases generated by thermal decomposition in an environment sealed with combustion ash are not emitted to the outside. To burn completely. Therefore, the combustion here is less smoke and less so-called “tar” is generated, so that the inside of the incense stick support hole 21b is hardly contaminated with “tar”. Therefore, the combustion ash is free-flowing.

  And combustion progresses further like incense stick S3 shown in FIG. 4, and the combustion part F moves to the lower part from the lower end opening part 23c. At this time, the height of the unburned part of the incense stick S3 is lower than the height h of the lower end face 25 of the incense stick support part 2 and the contact surface 41 of the bottom face part 4. Here, the height h from the lower end opening 23c of the incense stick support hole 21c to the bottom surface portion 4 is smaller than the distance r from the point on the bottom surface portion 4 vertically below the lower end opening 23c to the edge of the bottom surface portion 4. It is configured. Therefore, even if the combustion ash collapses and the incense stick S3 falls, the combustion part F does not jump out from the bottom face part 4. Therefore, even if the incense stick S3 falls, since the combustion part F is on the bottom face part 4, the temperature of the combustion part F is not lowered and the supply of air is not cut off. Burn. Of course, even if the combustion ash does not collapse, the combustion continues and the incense stick S3 burns completely. Furthermore, even when the lower end of the incense stick S3 does not reach the bottom surface portion 4, even if the combustion ash collapses, the unburned residue falls on the bottom surface portion 4, and thus complete combustion without any problem. Of course, when the combustion ash does not collapse, it is needless to say that the combustion part F is completely burned because it is in the air.

  Here, when the combustion part F moves below the lower end opening 23c, the volatile combustion gas generated by the thermal decomposition is likely to be emitted to the outside, the generation of smoke increases, and "tar" adheres. It tends to occur. However, since the burning ash blocks the incense stick support hole 21c, the smoke with a large amount of “tar” does not enter the incense stick support hole 21c and does not contaminate the incense stick support hole 21c with tar.

  And after incense burns completely, combustion ash is maintained inside like the incense stick support hole 21d of FIG. As described above, the combustion ash is a smooth ash with less “tar” adhesion. Here, when burning the next incense stick S4, if the lower end of the incense stick S4 is inserted into the incense stick support hole 21d from the upper end opening 22d, the smooth ash is easily pushed downward from the lower end opening 23d by the incense stick S4. . At this time, there is no adhesion of tar in the incense stick support hole 21d. If tar adheres, the thermal conductivity increases and the incense stick burns away, causing the incense stick to extinguish. Furthermore, since tar reduces the air permeability of the non-combustible fiber and reduces the air supply amount, this aspect also causes the incense stick to extinguish. In this embodiment, since there is no such tar adhesion, the incense stick burns stably. In addition, there is no accumulation of tar even after repeated use, and no special maintenance is required. Moreover, the combustion ash pushed out on the bottom face part 4 can be easily discharged from the discharge port 32 simply by tilting the incense holder 1. Again, no special cleaning is required because the combustion ash is free flowing.

The incense holder 1 of 1st Embodiment has the following effects by the above structure and an effect | action.
(1) It can be set very easily on the incense holder 1 without breaking the incense stick. Therefore, there is an effect that it is easy to use for elderly people and children, or to use in a dark place.

(2) Also, there is an effect that the incense can be completely burned to the end.
(3) Furthermore, there is an effect that there is little contamination with tar and the like, and troublesome cleaning and maintenance are almost unnecessary.

(4) Since the structure is simple and there is no failure portion, there is an effect that it can be used for a long time without failure.
(5) Even if the incense stick is shortened and falls down, there is an effect that the incense stick can be safely burned without jumping out of the incense stick holder 1.

(6) If necessary, there is an effect that the performance can be maintained semipermanently by exchanging non-combustible fibers.
(7) There is an effect that the incense stick support part 2 can be formed only by filling the side face part 3a with nonflammable fibers.

(8) The mass and diameter of the pedestal 5 prevent the fall, and there is an effect that the incense holder can be made difficult to fall.

The whole is composed of a metal coil spring-like linear member. In this case, the side surface portion 203a does not cover the entire side surface of the incense stick support portion 202 but supports only the lower portion of the incense stick support portion 202. The incense stick support part 202 is not formed by filling the side face part 203a with nonflammable fibers, but is formed in a columnar shape with incense stick support holes in advance, and the incense stick support part 202 can be attached to and detached from the side face part 203a. It is configured. Further, if the bottom surface portion 4 is also made of a sheet-like incombustible fiber, the replacement becomes easy.

For this reason, a vent is unnecessary. Further, the discharge port 232 is constituted by a gap between the linear members that are largely open, and the combustion ash is discharged from here.
