Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] When a candle is lit, it automatically opens due to the heat of the candle and provides a candle wrap that also serves as a saucer for the wax. [Structure] A shape memory polymer (1) that memorizes the shape of an open flower, etc., and transforms it into a shape that wraps the part of the candle (2) other than the tip of the wick to light it and fix it. Is characterized by.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a candle wrap that automatically opens when a candle is lit in order to create a good atmosphere at wedding receptions, parties and restaurants.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Traditionally, there were bare candles and candle wraps in which the lower part of the candle standing on the cake was wrapped in aluminum foil.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 This had the following drawbacks. (A) Once the candle was ignited, I could only see the change in the candle becoming shorter. (B) When I placed a candle on the cake and lit it, wax often fell on the cake. The present invention has been made to eliminate these drawbacks.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The shape memory polymer (1) that memorizes the shape of an open flower and the like is deformed into a shape that wraps the part of the candle (2) other than the tip of the wick for lighting and fixed. You may write letters or pictures inside the candle (2) or shape memory polymer (1). The lower part of the shape memory polymer (1) should be memorized in a shape with no gap so that the wax will not fall when the candle (2) is lit. The present invention is a candle wrap having the above structure.

[0005]

[Action]

 When the tip of the core of the candle (2) is lit, the heat causes the shape-memory polymer (1) to open in an attempt to return to the previously memorized shape such as an open flower. At the same time, characters and pictures written on the candle (2) and shape memory polymer (1) appear, and the shape memory polymer (1) also serves as a saucer for wax.

[0006]

【Example】

 Hereinafter, examples of the present invention will be described. (A) A shape memory polymer (1) that memorizes the shape of an open flower, etc., is deformed at a warm temperature into a shape that wraps the portion of the candle (2) other than the tip of the wick to light the fire. , Cool and fix as it is. (B) Characters and pictures may be written on the inside of the candle (2) and the shape memory polymer (1). (C) Shape memory The lower part of the polymer (1) should be remembered in a shape with no gap so that wax will not fall when the candle (2) is lit. (D) As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, when a candle in the shape of Momotaro is fixed in a shape wrapped in a peach shape with a shape memory polymer that remembers the shape of the broken peach, the candle becomes When the core of the fire is lit, the peach cracks and Momotaro appears from the inside. In addition, you can make a candle and candle wrap of various fun shapes, such as cracking the bamboo so that the kaguya princess appears from the inside, or peeling the banana so that the banana appears from the inside. .

[0007]

[Effect of device]

 The movement of the shape memory polymer and the characters and pictures that emerge as it is shaped with the flame of a candle creates a fantastic or fun atmosphere. What's more, the letters and pictures that appear are more beautiful as they are lit by the flame of a candle. Also, even if you set a candle on the cake and set it on fire, the shape memory polymer serves as a saucer so that the wax will not fall on the cake. It can be made into various shapes of candles and candle wraps, making it ideal as a party product or toy.
