DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The decorative lamp lighting method and decorative lamp lighting device of the present invention will be described in detail below.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an example of a decorative lamp lighting device according to the present invention. A candle 1 is erected in a candle container 5 in which a large number of candles can be erected in a row, and the burning wick 2 of the candle is connected by a candle lead 3 or the burning wick 2 is in contact with the candle lead 3 or A plurality of the candle standing bodies 6 are placed close to each other on a candle mounting stand 7 having a stepped step 11 and a number of the candle standing bodies 6 arranged in the stepped step 11. One candle conducting wire 3 that intersects, joins, contacts, or approaches the group of candle conducting wires 3 of the structure 6 is provided at the left end of the candle mounting stand 7 as viewed from the front. The candles 1 are erected in a single row, and the burning wick 2 of the candle is connected by a candle lead 3 or the burning wick 2 is brought into contact with or close to the candle lead 3 to form a candle standing body 6. The candle 1 is arranged at a predetermined position required for characters, figures, and designs to be exposed. At this time, the position where the candle 1 and the other candle 1 are arranged may be separated from each other, and it may be difficult to properly stretch the squib 3. In such a case, a candle lead wire 4 may be disposed at a required position between the candle 1 and another candle 1 to hold the lead wire 3. About this squib wire support rod 4, it should just be used only for a required part. The candle 1 or the squib wire support rod 4 may be erected not only in a straight line state but also in a line state in a curved line that draws an arc.
Furthermore, if the candle 1 or the conducting wire support rod 4 is erected in a candle container 5 in which a large number of candles 1 can be erected in a row, the setting work is saved and the versatility is enhanced. . The candle container 5 can stand a large number of the candles 1 at equal intervals by means such as providing a recess about the size of the lower part of the candle 1 or by means of marking at equal intervals. Anyway. If consideration is given so that candles are regularly arranged in this way, it is extremely convenient to display letters, figures, designs, etc. with the flame of the candle. The candle container 5 is generally in an elongated shape, but other shapes may be used. Further, it may be a linear elongated shape or a curved elongated shape. If the candle container 5 is cloudy, it is preferable because it can whiten when receiving the light of the candle and has a favorable lighting effect. If other colors are required, the desired effect can be obtained by using the translucent candle container 5 of a desired color. Of course, it may be transparent or opaque. Vinyl chloride resin is preferably used because it is excellent in self-extinguishing properties and is a material that transmits light, and polycarbonate is a material that is excellent in heat resistance and transmits light. As a versatile molding method, there is a method in which a sheet-like material such as a vinyl chloride resin or a polycarbonate is used to make a vacuum molding method. Furthermore, it is desirable to determine the shape of the candle 1 by careful consideration such as a shape in which the candle 1 does not move, a molten wax does not overflow, and a shape that is not easily damaged by a combustion flame. In order to prevent the stored candle 1 from moving, it is preferable that the size and shape be such that the lower part of the candle 1 used by the candle storage portion of the candle storage container 5 fits as closely as possible. Further, the candle 1 may be fixed in the candle container 5 by an adhesive tape, an adhesive, an adhesive, a hot melt bonding method, or the like. The candle storage container 5 may be used as necessary, and may be appropriately selected depending on the production mode, such as when not using it or when using a container that stores one or several candles.
As the candle 1 used in the present invention, a generally used candle can be used. In order to avoid dripping or accumulation of heat due to molten wax, if a candle with a weight that can secure the combustion time required for the production is used, the remaining amount of molten wax is very small at the end of the production, There is less risk of burns due to the molten solder during clean-up. Furthermore, if the length of the candle burning wick 2 protruding above the candle 1 is made longer than usual, it is preferable because the handling becomes easy when the conductor 3 is stretched. Further, since the support rod 4 serves to hold the lead wire 3, it is preferable that the support rod 4 be made of a material that does not easily burn. Preferably, the size and shape are not. For example, metals such as thin rods and wires, wood, ceramics, nonflammable resins and the like are preferable. For example, steel nails painted white are preferably used at low cost. The support bar 4 may be fixed in the candle container 5 by the same means as the candle 1 or may be molded integrally with the candle container 5. If the length of the support bar 4 is adjusted so that it is as high as the candle burning core 2 in the state where it is installed in the candle container 5, it will be handled when the conductor 3 is stretched. Is preferable.
As the squib wire 3, a squib wire generally used for candles can be used without any problem. The squib 3 may be connected to the candle burning core 2 or the support rod 4 with an adhesive or an adhesive, or may be connected by being wound or entangled. If the flame of the lead wire 3 can be sufficiently burned to the candle burning core 2, it may be placed in contact with or close to it.
[0008]
A large number of the above-mentioned candle standing bodies 6 are arranged in a certain relationship, patterned, or predetermined so that the candle conductors 3 used in the candle standing body 6 are regularly arranged. For example, a staircase shape. Each of the candle standing bodies 6 may be regularly arranged at a certain angle as well as being arranged in the same direction. It is necessary to arrange the burning flame of the candle 1 so as not to cause thermal damage to the other candle standing bodies 6, but when this condition is satisfied, the candle lead 3 is regularly arranged. What is necessary is just to arrange | position the candle standing body 6. FIG. In this way, if the candle lead 3 is regularly arranged, when the ignition point 10 provided at a predetermined position is ignited, the flame of the lead 3 is regularly formed regardless of the shape of characters, figures, designs, etc. The flame spreads in the vertical direction, the flame spreads in the horizontal direction, and the flame spreads in a plane like a wave, and the area where the lighting area of the lamp expands over time from the ignition point source It is possible to produce a visual decoration effect like never before, such as lighting.
[0009]
In this way, at least one other candle conducting wire is provided which intersects with, is in contact with, or is close to, the candle conducting wire group of a large number of candle standing bodies 6 arranged in a staircase shape. Is lit so that the lighting area becomes an area lighting that expands from the ignition point source 10 over time. One or a plurality of the conductors 3 that intersect with the candle conductors 3 of the candle standing body 6 may be used. Further, regarding the crossing portion with the candle conducting wire 3 group, the flame is surely transmitted if they are combined, but the flame transmitted by the conducting wire 3 is sufficiently transmitted to the other conducting wire 3 at the intersecting portion. It is possible to propagate the flame of the squib 3 by contact or proximity crossing.
The ignition point 10 may be determined as a part that is easily ignited depending on the production form of the conducting wire 3 that intersects the group 3 of candle conducting wires of the large number of standing candles, and a part that is necessary for the production effect. In particular, it is often advantageous from the standpoint of production effects to provide the ignition point 10 at a specific location such as the corner or center of a large number of standing candle bodies 6 arranged in a staircase pattern. In the decorative lamp lighting method and the decorative lamp lighting device according to the present invention, from the point of time when the conducting wire 3 intersecting with the group of candle conducting wires 3 of the large number of candle standing bodies is ignited, a production effect peculiar to the present invention is achieved. Is started. Therefore, first of all, the igniting wires and candles other than the igniting wires 3 intersecting with the group of candle igniting wires 3 of the large number of candle standing bodies are ignited, and the flames are ignited by the igniting wires and the like. Even in a configuration that is transmitted to the conducting wire 3 that intersects the group, the production until the flame is transmitted to the conducting wire 3 that intersects the candle conducting wire 3 group of the multiple candle standing bodies has been conventionally performed. Is the same. The ignition point 10 may be ignited by direct lighter, match or the like, or may be ignited by introducing a flame from other devices or candles installed separately with a lead wire or the like. You may do it.
When the ignition point 10 is ignited, the flame at the ignition point 10 spreads and propagates in a wave shape by the candle conducting wire 3 as if the waves generated on the water surface are transmitted by the pebbles thrown into the water surface. Each candle 1 is lit so that the area lighting increases as time passes.
[0010]
The candle standing body 6 of the present invention may be placed on a candle mounting stand 7 for use. The candle mounting stand 7 has, for example, a stepped step 11 on which each candle standing body 6 can be placed. The inclination angle of the staircase shape may be appropriately determined in consideration of the installation location, the production form, and the like. The width, length, etc. of the step 11 do not need to be particularly constant, and may be determined as needed. In addition, since a large number of candles 1 are burned simultaneously on the candle mounting stand 7, it is necessary to prevent the flame from becoming unstable due to lack of oxygen. Furthermore, it is necessary to effectively release the heat generated by a large number of combustion flames. For these purposes, it is effective to improve the passage of air in the candle mounting stand 7, and it is preferable to provide a space at the rising edge between the steps 11 and provide an air inlet.
As a material for the candle mounting stand 7, a metal such as aluminum or aluminum alloy is a preferable material that is lightweight and easy to manufacture. Steel, wood, synthetic resin, etc. can also be used. Furthermore, these composite materials can also be used. If it is strong in strength, the material is not particularly limited.
The shape of the candle mounting stand 7 is, for example, as shown in FIG. 1, in which a linear stepped step 11 is arranged in a rectangular shape in appearance and supported by a foot part of the back, as shown in FIG. There are an arcuate or curved stepped step 11 configured in a three-dimensional manner, a spiral stepped step as shown in FIG. Further, a large number of the candle standing bodies 6 can be placed in a fan shape, a candle standing body 6 is placed only on a part of the candle placing stand 7, and the overall shape is a heart shape. It is possible to have a shape such as Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 4, this candle mounting stand 7 can also be comprised so that attachment or detachment to the other stand which has a leg part is possible. If it is configured to be detachable in this manner, it is convenient to save time and effort when preparing for production and cleaning up afterwards. Further, a design may be added to the outer periphery of the candle mounting stand 7 or the like.
Further, as shown in FIG. 7, in order to prevent the candle standing body 6 from being displaced and the candle standing body 6 from falling out of the step 11 of the candle mounting stand 7, the candle is accommodated in the step 11. A container holding member 8 may be provided. The container holding member 8 can be provided at either or both of the front and rear ends of the step 11, and the shape thereof preferably does not interfere with the visual recognition of the flame of the candle 1. As an example, a relatively small protrusion as shown in FIG. 7 is installed at an appropriate interval at the front end of the step 11. Further, the storage container holding member 8 can be configured as a fence-like object or a bowl-like object. In order to propagate the flame of the ignition point source 10 with certainty, the conducting wire 3 intersecting with the candle conducting wire 3 group of the candle standing body 6 may be extended in a double manner. When the conducting wire 3 intersecting with the candle conducting wire 3 group of the candle standing body 6 is provided in the vertical direction, a conducting wire guide 9 is provided to prevent the ignited conducting wire 3 from being struck by a combustion flame and jumping up. May be. As the squib guide 9, for example, a metal bent in an L shape as shown in FIGS. 1 and 7 is installed at an appropriate interval on the candle mounting stand 7 at a position where the stake 3 is extended. There is something to say. Such a guide wire 9 serves as a guide for guiding the guide wire 3 when the guide wire 3 is stretched, and the installation procedure can be simplified. Furthermore, if an annular portion is provided in the guide wire guide 9 installed at the top, the guide wire 3 can be stretched and stretched by passing through the annular portion. convenient. Further, the squib guide 9 is not limited to an L-shaped bent shape or an annular portion, but may be a rod shape or a curved shape. Furthermore, it can also be installed by stretching a spiral metal wire or the like above and below the installation portion of the conducting wire 3 and entwining the conducting wire 3 around the spiral object.
[0011]
In the decorative lamp lighting method and the decorative lamp lighting device of the present invention, it is preferable to use a large number of standing candle bodies 6 to express various characters, figures and designs. On the other hand, when the installation place is limited or the design to be displayed is simple, a large number of the candle standing bodies 6 are not necessarily required, and several candle standing bodies are required. 6 may be sufficient to express the design. Furthermore, a variety of decorative lighting effects forms are possible by combining several candle standing bodies 6 as one unit and combining a plurality of the units with other effects forms such as flower arrangements. Furthermore, by combining or connecting a plurality of the lighting devices, it is possible to express more various figures and designs, and to express words and sentences that use many characters.

The candle used is as shown in FIG. 9. A paraffin wax having a bottom diameter of 20 mm and a height of 10 mm is formed into a hemispherical shape to form a candle burning agent, and a cotton yarn core is impregnated with wax to lower the waist. One end of the held candle burning core was fixed to a steel washer, and this was inserted in the axial direction of the candle burning agent to obtain a candle. In addition, the length of the combustion core was set so that the candle used might be about 35 mm from the bottom to the top of the combustion core.
Moreover, the candle conductor support rod used for the purpose of extending the candle conductor is as shown in FIG. 11, and a white coated steel nail having a diameter of 2.2 mm and a length of 35 mm is provided in the central portion of the washer. Inserted and fixed, and used as a candle support rod for upright candles.
Next, as shown in FIG. 5, the candle or the lead wire support rod was bonded and fixed to a predetermined portion of the candle container placed on each step of the candle mounting stand by a hot melt bonding method. Furthermore, a nitrocellulose-based adhesive is applied to the top of the candle burning core or the top of the candle lead for the candle so that the left end of the 700 mm long lead for the candle is the horizontal ignition part and the remaining lead is stretched horizontally. Adhered and fixed, and a candle standing body was obtained.
Next, as shown in FIG. 1, as a procedure, first, a candle conducting wire having a length of 900 mm was arranged in the left column toward the front of the candle mounting stand, and the upper end and the lower end of the column conducting wire were fixed. Further, the candle standing body is placed on the uppermost step, and the row ignition portion of the conducting wire is crossed in the form of placing it above the column conducting wire, and then the left end of the row ignition portion is fixed to the stand.
Similarly, the candle standing body and the row ignition part for 17 steps were set by the same work setup from the upper step to the lower step.
Next, after the above preparations were completed, the lighting was turned off, and in the dim light, the ignition point set at the lower left end portion toward the front shown in FIG.
The fire ignited from the ignition point to the column conducting wire ran up from the bottom stage while igniting the row ignition part, and after about 20 seconds after ignition, the column conducting line fire ignited the top row ignition part, From the bottom, it was observed that the flames propagated in the direction of the waves in the horizontal direction. And after the propagated flame passed, the flame of the candle arranged in the predetermined part formed letters sequentially.
Then, in less than 55 seconds after ignition, while the row conductors arranged in the uppermost stage were burned out, the letters “LOVE” due to candle flames appeared in the dark as shown in FIG.
After that, the lamp was kept on for 10 minutes. During that time, the candle was melted by the heat of the flames of many candles. It was also possible to prevent dripping by storing molten wax in the candle container.
