Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a wedding reception,
Also, the present invention relates to candles used for decoration of tables and cakes at various parties such as home parties such as birthdays and Christmas.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Candles used for receptions, birthdays, Christmas parties, etc. have variously devised the shape and color of the candle itself in order to enhance the decorative effect.

Recently, a combination of candles and fireworks has been used for the purpose of obtaining a more gorgeous effect. Conventionally, as a candle combined with fireworks, for example,
No. 2,469, Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 53-128771, and Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 61-147245, in which the core of a candle or the candle itself is mixed with a pyrotechnic powder or a substance emitting fireworks. As disclosed in JP-B-53-31346 and JP-A-57-1850, there is a structure in which a candle core is extended upward and a pyrotechnic powder is solidified around the core.

[0004]

By the way, in the candle having the above-mentioned structure, fireworks are ignited immediately after the fire is lit, and there is a danger that a finger or the like may be burned. In addition, since the fireworks are ignited first, it is gorgeous, but only a simple atmosphere of fireworks can be produced, and there is still a problem that it lacks a sense of excitement.

[0005] In the case where the candle itself is mixed with explosive for pyrotechnics, a fireworks-like spark is emitted from the flame of the candle, but it is essentially the same as a candle. .

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a candle with a high stage effect that can dramatically enhance the atmosphere of a reception or birthday party.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, a candle according to the present invention comprises a candle body 1 and an end portion of the candle body 1 on the ignition side, as illustrated in FIGS. It consists of the formed fireworks 2 and a candle 3 provided at the tip of the fireworks 2. The candle 3 is ignited for a predetermined time during use, and then the fire moves to the fireworks 2, and the fireworks 2 2 is characterized in that the candle body 1 is configured to ignite when the combustion of the candle 2 is finished.

According to the candle of the present invention having the above structure,
After the light is turned on, the candle 3 is lit for a while, so the expectation for the next fireworks will increase during this time, and with the expectation, the gorgeous fireworks 2 will ignite, producing a staging effect. Will be very high. In addition, when the fireworks 2 are completely burned, the candle main body 1 is lit and functions in the same manner as a normal decorative candle, so that various effects can be enjoyed with one candle.

Further, according to the candle of the present invention, when the candle for ignition 3 is lit during use, the candle for ignition 3 is burned as a normal candle for a time proportional to the length, so that the candle is ignited. Even if you do not remove your hands from the candle immediately, there is no risk of burns and it is safe. The time from ignition to fireworks ignition can be arbitrarily set by appropriately adjusting the length of the candle for ignition 3.

[0010] Here, as the pyrotechnic explosive used in the present invention, a smokeless, odorless and nontoxic component is used for food hygiene. Specifically, ammonium perchlorate (NH ₄ ClO ₄ ) is used as an oxidizing agent, and a pyrotechnic explosive mainly containing the oxidizing agent, a combustible (such as titanium powder) and dust powder is used.

The dust is used for binding ammonium perchlorate and explosive components such as combustibles (including coloring agents in the case of colored fireworks), and such dust is used as a binder. Thus, fireworks explosive (mud) can be easily hardened into a desired shape, and since there is no toxic substance generated during combustion, there is no problem in food hygiene.

In addition, the pyrotechnic explosive is burned out in the air by adjusting the amount of the components in order to prevent the flammable powder from burning on cakes, fruits, tables and the like during combustion.

As shown in FIG. 2, the candle for use in the present invention is obtained by impregnating a core 1a derived from the upper end of an explosive 2 with wax (or paraffin), or as shown in FIG. Alternatively, wax (or paraffin) may be formed into a cylindrical shape around the core 13a.

[0014]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view of an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a central longitudinal sectional view of the embodiment.

The embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 comprises a candle body 1, a fireworks 2 formed at the upper end of the candle body 1, and a candle 3 for guiding the fireworks.
The candle main body 1 is formed by molding wax (or paraffin) into a stick shape around the core 1a. The core 1a of the candle main body 1 is drawn out from the upper end of the main body by a length corresponding to the fireworks 2 and the candle 3 for lighting.

Fireworks 2 are smokeless, odorless and non-toxic explosives for food hygiene, for example, an oxidizing agent; ammonium perchlorate (NH ₄ ClO ₄ ), a combustible agent; titanium powder, a flame coloring agent; and copper oxide (CuO). ) And explosives (mud) mainly composed of dust are hardened around the lead-out portion of the core 1 a of the candle main body 1. The composition of the pyrotechnic powder is adjusted so that it will burn out when burned, but will not splatter on cakes, fruits or tables.

A core 1a derived from the upper end of the fireworks 2
Is impregnated with wax (or paraffin), and the impregnated portion serves as a candle 3 for sparking the fireworks 2. The candle with the above structure is used by pushing it to cakes, fruits, etc., and when ignited at the time of use, first, a candle 3 for a light guide.
Burns for a time proportional to the length, and then the fire of the candle 3 ignites the fireworks 2 to generate a gorgeous spark.
Thereafter, when the fireworks 2 are completely burned, the candle body 1
Lit up and subsequently burned as a normal decorative candle.

The shape of the fireworks 2 is arbitrary, and in addition to the shape shown in FIG. 1, for example, a firework 21 processed into a columnar shape as shown in FIG. 3A, or as shown in FIG. Various forms are conceivable, such as the fireworks 22 processed into a flared shape.

FIG. 4 is a front view of another embodiment of the present invention,
FIG. 5 is a central longitudinal sectional view of the embodiment. In this embodiment, a stick-shaped candle main body 11 is arranged on a candle stand (made of synthetic resin) 10 which is pushed up to food such as cake, and a fireworks 12 and a light-guiding candle 13 are provided at the upper end of the candle main body 11. There is a characteristic in the place where it is provided.

The fireworks 12 are obtained by hardening a pyrotechnic powder (mud) similar to that of the previous embodiment into a cylindrical shape without providing a core, and using a cellulosic solvent or the like on the upper end surface of the candle body 11. Are joined.

The candle 13 is made of wax (or paraffin) formed into a cylindrical shape around the core 13a, and the core 11a of the candle body 11 is inserted into the lower central portion thereof.

In the embodiment of FIGS. 4 and 5, as in the above, first, the ignition candle 13 burns for a while, and subsequently, the fire of the ignition candle 3 is the fireworks 1.
2 and the candle body 11 is lit when the fireworks 12 have been burned, so that the candles can be lit and fired in that order.

In the above embodiment, an example in which a stick body is used as a candle body has been described. However, the shape is arbitrary, and for example, a general inverted truncated conical shape or a side surface having a hyperboloid shape is used. It may have a simple shape or a shape imitating an animal or a character.

[0024]

As described above, according to the candle of the present invention, when a fire is lit at the time of use, the candle for ignition first ignites for a predetermined time, and then the fire is transferred to the fireworks,
When the burning of the fireworks is over, the candle body is ignited, so that a single candle can enjoy a variety of effects, and the atmosphere of a reception, birthday party, etc. can be dramatically enhanced.

In addition, since the ignition candle burns for a while after being lit, and the fireworks are ignited thereafter, the risk of burns is extremely small even if the hand is not removed from the candle immediately after ignition. Excellent in safety.

Here, in the present invention, if an explosive mainly composed of ammonium perchlorate (oxidizing agent), a combustible and dust powder is used as a pyrotechnic explosive, smoke,
Since no odor and no toxic substances are generated, it is possible to realize a candle with a fireworks having no problem in food hygiene.
