Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a light emitting candle used for production at various ceremonies such as wedding receptions, dinner shows, parties, nurses' hats and religious events.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In various ceremonies such as wedding receptions, dinner shows, parties, nurses' caps, and religious events, candles of various shapes and sizes are used in addition to lighting for lighting. And each has its own atmosphere.

In the case of a candle, not only is it lacking in brilliance because it shines only at the burning flame, but the flame is small, and since the color of the flame is only one, it has a dramatic effect at wedding receptions, dinner shows, etc. Low. For this reason, the effect of production is improved by using a candle whose main body is colored in a colorful color such as red or blue, or which is designed in various shapes, or a large candle.

Further, as a luminous body replacing a candle having a defect that the color of the flame is one color, various luminous bodies capable of emitting a flame of a color different from that of the candle by burning a combustor to which various metal elements are added are also available. It is used.

[0005]

As described above, since the candles used in various ceremonies conventionally have a low effect of production, recently, variously devised candles have been used, but the effect is not so great. Not so much. For example,
When the main body is colored or candles with various shapes are used, when the lighting of the ceremonial venue is turned off and the venue becomes dark, only the flames can be seen, so little effect can be expected. Even when a large candle is used, the effect of the flame is not so large because the flame part that is actually visible is not so large.

On the other hand, in the case of various luminous bodies having a function of producing a color other than the color of flames such as candles, when ignited, various metallic elements contained in the combusting body are also burned, which causes an irritating odor and is harmful Gas may be generated. In addition, it is difficult to emit light for a long time during the ceremony.

[0007] Therefore, the problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a luminous candle which can dramatically improve the effect of production in various ceremonies and is excellent in safety.

[0008]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a light-emitting candle of the present invention comprises a candle body provided with a light-emitting body that emits visible light, and a candle stand detachably attached to the upper part of the candle body. It is characterized by having. As a result, the light emitted from the flame of a candle standing upright on the candle stand and the light emitting body can illuminate the candle body, so that the warmth of the candle light is not lost, and the dramatic effect can be dramatically improved. it can. In addition, various colors are emitted by using a colored light-emitting body, covering the light-emitting body with a colored light-transmitting cover, or forming the candle body with a colored light-transmitting member. You can also

Further, in the luminescent candle of the present invention, any one of a chemiluminescent body, an electric lamp and a fluorescent lamp can be used as a luminous body provided in the candle body. The chemiluminescer, for example, emits light with almost no generation of heat or gas simply by mixing a fluorescent solution and an oxidizing solution.
By using this as a luminous body, it is possible not only to enhance the effect with a simple structure, but also to be safe. In addition, since the chemiluminescer emits unique fluorescence, it produces a unique effect that cannot be obtained with a candle flame.

Further, the chemiluminescer has a structure in which a fluorescent liquid containing a fluorescent substance, an oxalate ester, a dye and a pigment and an oxidizing liquid containing hydrogen peroxide and sodium salicylate are sealed in a separable state by a rupturable partition wall. It is characterized by being a cylindrical body. When the cylinder is bent, the partition wall ruptures and the fluorescent liquid and the oxidizing liquid are mixed and reacted with each other, so that light emission is started. By using such a chemiluminescent liquid, the luminescent liquid itself emits a color corresponding to a dye or a pigment, and therefore, luminescent candles of various colors can be produced. Further, since the fluorescent liquid and the oxidizing liquid are kept in a sealed state even during the reaction, the liquid does not leak even if the luminous candle is held and moved.

On the other hand, in the light-emitting candle of the present invention, an electric lamp or a fluorescent lamp can be used as the luminous body included in the candle body. The use of electric lamps or fluorescent lamps increases the brightness and greatly expands the variety and selectivity of the size of the light emitter, the intensity of light, and the like. In addition, the use of an electric lamp makes it possible to easily control the brightness during lighting, so that the effect of production can be enhanced.

Here, a colored electric lamp or a fluorescent lamp is used, the periphery of the electric lamp or the fluorescent lamp is covered with a colored transparent film, or the candle body is formed of a colored opaque transparent member. By doing so, various colors can be emitted.

AC is used as a power source for electric lamps or fluorescent lamps.
If you use a commercial power source such as 100V, it can emit light for a long time, so it is suitable as a stationary light emitting candle, and if you use a battery, you do not need a power cord, so a light emitting candle suitable for moving Become. Of course, using rechargeable batteries and AC100
It is also possible to use V in combination with a rechargeable battery.

After being stored in the candle body 2, the candle stand 4 is attached to the candle body 2 and the candle 5 is ignited. While the light emitting candle 1 is in use, the light emitted from the flame of the candle 5 and the light emitting body 8 incorporated in the candle body 2 can illuminate the candle body 2 from the inside, so that the warmth of the light of the candle 5 can be obtained. The dramatic effect is dramatically improved without loss. In addition, since a large portion of the candle body 2 emits light as a whole, it has an excellent effect that it is easy to recognize from a distant place and the degree of attention is high.

In the luminous candle 1, the candle body 2
As the light emitting body to be built in, the light emitting body 8 in which the fluorescent liquid 6 and the oxidizing liquid 7 are enclosed is used. The luminous body 8 is bent to fold the glass tube 6G, and the fluorescent liquid 6 and the oxidizing liquid 7 are mixed well, and the luminous body 8 emits light with almost no generation of heat or gas. Therefore, use this as a luminous body. With the simple structure, not only can the effect be enhanced, but it is also safe. In addition, since the light emitting body 8 is kept in a hermetically sealed state even during light emission, liquid does not leak even when the light emitting candle 1 is held and moved by hand.

Further, since the luminous body 8 emits a peculiar fluorescence, a peculiar effect that cannot be obtained by the flame of the candle 5 is produced. The light emitting candle 1 can be used both by placing it on a table or the like and by holding it in a hand.
The candle body 2, the candle stand 4 and the stand 3 are screwed together with the screws formed at the joints 21 of each other, so that they are securely locked and easily attached and detached. Therefore, the light emitting body 8 can be easily taken in and out, and the candle body 2 can be easily cleaned and maintained.

As the chemiluminescent liquid sealed in the light emitting body 8, the fluorescent liquid 6 contains a fluorescent substance, an oxalate ester, a dye and a pigment, and the oxidizing liquid 7 contains hydrogen peroxide and sodium salicylate. By using a chemiluminescent solution of such a component, the luminescent solution itself emits a color according to the dye or pigment. Therefore, by using various dyes or pigments, the luminescent candle 1 of various colors can be produced. You can

In addition, various colors can be emitted by a method of covering the light-emitting body 8 with a colored transparent cover or a method of forming the candle body 2 with a colored transparent member.

Next, the light emitting candle 9 of the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in FIG. 2A, the light emitting candle 9 has a structure in which a light emitting body 8 itself having a structure in which a chemiluminescent liquid is sealed is used as a candle body, and a candle stand 4 and a stand 3 are attached above and below the candle body. When actually used, the light emitting body 8 is slightly bent before being attached to the candle stand 4 and the stand 3 and is shaken well to start light emission, and the lower portion of the light emitting body 8 is recessed in the upper portion of the stand 3. Light source 8
The light emitting candle 9 is formed by inserting and fixing the upper part of the above into the concave part 32 of the lower part of the candle stand 4.

At this time, since the leaf springs 30 are provided at three places in the respective concave portions 31 and 32, the inserted light emitting body 8 is securely held without wobbling. On the other hand, if the light-emitting body 8 is pulled strongly, it can be removed from the recesses 31 and 32, so that the light-emitting body 8 is easily attached and detached. Therefore, it is easy to replace the light emitting body 8 after the light emitting reaction is completed. Further, since the candle body of the light emitting candle 9 is a light emitting body, its structure is extremely simple and lightweight, and it is suitable for moving.

As described above, since the light emitting candles 1 and 9 can make the candle body emit light in various colors,
It is very convenient when it is necessary to divide the participants into several groups in various ceremonies. For example, in a Buddhist religion, each color of red, white, yellow, green, and purple has a special meaning, so when it is necessary to distinguish each color at a religious event, these colors are used. The luminous candles 1, 9 which can be made to emit light produce a very good effect.

Next, referring to FIG. 3, in the light emitting candle 10 of the third embodiment, 12 is a candle body, 1
3 is a stand, 14 is a candle stand, 15 is a candle, and 17 is a power cord.
