[0009]

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the drawings. 1 is a front view of a candle 1 of the present invention, FIG. 2 is an enlarged vertical front view of an upper portion of the candle 1 of the present invention, FIG. 3 is an enlarged plan sectional view of a candle 1 of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a candle 1 of the present invention.
The expanded front view in the combustion state of the upper part is shown, respectively. The candle 1 of the present invention is mainly used at a party venue or a wedding hall. For example, the candle 1 is an elongated cylindrical column 3 having a core 3 at its center and a body 2 around the core 3.
It consists of and.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the core 3 is provided with lead 4 at the center, and the periphery of the lead 4 is covered with cotton (fiber) 5. The cotton 5 is surrounded by a thin film of paraffin 6 and further covered by a film 7 of metal powder. Further, the periphery of the metal powder 7 film is further covered with a thin film of paraffin 8 to form the core 3.

It is generally known that the temperature of the flame 9 of the candle 1 is higher in the upper part than in the lower part.
The lead 4 has a predetermined diameter (for example, a diameter of about 1 mm). Even if the cotton 5 is burning, the lead 4 is not melted by the heat below the flame 9 and is not melted by heat at a high temperature portion above the flame 9. 4 is configured to melt. The cotton 5 is impregnated with paraffin (not shown) so as to promote ignition and prevent only the cotton 5 from burning.

That is, a thin paraffin 6 film is applied to the entire periphery of the cotton 5 by passing the cotton covered with the lead 4 through a relatively high temperature paraffin layer of + 80 ° C. to + 130 ° C. for about 1 to 3 seconds. To provide. As a result, the metal powder 7 is easily attached. Then, a film in which a predetermined amount of several kinds of metal powders 7 are mixed is formed around the thin paraffin 6 film. Further, a layer of a paraffin 8 film is further formed on the periphery of the core 3, so that the core 3 is formed so as to prevent the adhered metal powder 7 from falling and impairing the appearance.

Further, the metal powder 7 generates a plurality of sparks 10 of various colors, for example, a metal powder of iron, copper, magnesium or lanthanum, and several kinds of metal powder 7 Is mixed in a predetermined amount and adhered substantially uniformly around the paraffin 6 film. Also, multiple sparks 10 ...
The color of, for example, iron is orange, copper is blue, magnesium is pale, and especially lanthanum produces bright light. Furthermore,
If the diameter of the main body 2 is too thick, the sparks 10 hardly occur, and if the body 2 is thin and short, it burns out in a short time.
The length is 9 mm and the length is 100 mm.

Next, how the candle 1 of the present invention actually burns will be described. For the paraffin layer of the main body 2 and the respective paraffins 6 and 8, generally known paraffin, stearic acid, stearyl alcohol, etc. are used.

Then, the candle 1 is installed at a party venue or a wedding ceremony, and the interior lighting is turned off.
Ignite. The ignited candle 1 generates a flame 9 and a plurality of multicolored sparks 10 ... Are generated from the flame 9 by the metal powder 7 put in the core 3 and scattered in all directions. At this time, since no explosive is used, smoke is generated due to the generation of sparks, or there is no odor, and sound effects such as crackling, punpun, syrup, or squeaks are generated.

Further, the lead 4 contained in the core 3 is maintained in a straight state without being melted at a low temperature portion under the flame 9. Here, a candle when there is no lead 4 in the core 3 (100 in FIG. 5)
5) will be described with reference to FIG. In that case, when the candle 100 is burned, the wick 103 normally burns and falls, but the burned residue 103a of the wick 103 does not fall and continues to hang down with the unburned wick 103 and the main body 102.
When it comes into contact with, it acts as a core 103 and the flame 109 grows. If metal powder 7 is provided on such a material, sparks will be greatly scattered and it will be in a dangerous state. However, in the present invention, as described above, the wick 3 does not hang down even if it burns, and the flame does not increase. Sex does not occur.

When the core 3 burns and the paraffin layer of the main body 2 is consumed as time elapses, the lead 4 located above the flame 9 softens depending on the temperature of the flame 9 and tilts in either direction.
Since the above-mentioned flame 9 has a high temperature as described above, the lead 4 melts and drops. At this time, the burnt residue 3a of the cotton 5 is separated by the weight of the lead 4 into the unburned part and the burned part of the core 3 and falls down, but the core 3 is inclined and thus falls outside the main body 2. Become.

As described above, since the candle 1 uses the metal powder 7 for the core 3, it is possible to generate a plurality of sparks 10 ...
Is formed with a predetermined thickness and length, a plurality of sparks 10 ... Can be generated for a long time. Further, a plurality of multicolored sparks 10 ... Are generated from the flame 9, and at the same time, sound effects such as crackling, punpun, syrup, or squeaky are generated, so that a further great effect can be exhibited.

Further, since lead 4 is used for the wick 3, the flame 9 does not become large because the burnt residue 3a of the wick 3 drips continuously while the candle 1 is burning. Further, since the predetermined metal powder 7 is used to generate the plurality of sparks 10 ..., Smoke and odor can be prevented from being generated as when using explosive powder.

Further, even if the sparks 10 scatter, the clothes or the like worn on the clothes are not punctured, and even if the sparks 10 adhere to the skin, it is possible to prevent burns. Further, since a film having several kinds of different metal powders 7 attached is provided around the core 3 of the candle 1, when the core 3 is burned, the respective metal powders 7
Are heated, whereby a plurality of sparks 10 having different colors can be generated by the powders 7 of different metals.

In the embodiment, the metal powder 7 is provided around the core 3.
Although one film is provided, the present invention is not limited to this, and even if a plurality of metal powder 7 films are provided, any number of metal powder 7 films may be provided as long as a plurality of sparks 10 ...
In addition, the shape of the candle 1 has a diameter of 6 mm to 9 mm and a length of 1
However, it is needless to say that the same effect can be obtained even if the diameter and the length are changed and the combustion is continued for a longer time. Further, although several kinds of metal powders 7 are mixed and attached to the metal powder 7 film, the color of the spark 10 may be changed during the combustion without being limited thereto. Further, the core 3 is made of cotton 5, but not limited to this, hemp or other fibers may be used as long as the candle 1 can be burned.

[0022]

As described above in detail, according to the present invention, since lead is used in the core, when a candle is burnt, the lead is heavy and falls at the same time as the cotton burns. As a result, it is possible to prevent the core from hanging and the flame becoming large. Also,
Since the metal powder is provided on the core of the candle, a plurality of sparks can be generated when the core is burned. Also, the generated sparks are almost not hot and even if they adhere to clothes or skin, it is safe to prevent damage to clothes and burns, and the sparks generated from the burning flame do not generate smoke or odor, and the party venue or It is possible to prevent stains on the ceiling or walls of rooms such as wedding halls. Further, at the same time as the generation of sparks, sounds such as crackling, pimping, shishing, or squeaking are generated, and a greater effect can be exhibited at a party or wedding.

Further, according to the invention of claim 2, since the metal powder is constituted by mixing several kinds of metal powders, the sparks generated are multicolored, and the effect of production can be further improved. .
