Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (a) Industrial application field This invention relates to an improvement of an outdoor incense holder used in connection with gravestones, etc., for example.

(b) Prior Art As is well known, incense holders used in Buddhist altar settings are broadly classified into indoor and outdoor incense sticks. Indoor incense holders usually have a structure in which ashes are stored in an incense stick container, and the end of the incense stick is stuck into the ashes in the incense stick container. In this indoor incense stick holder, the ash is used as a direct support for the incense stick, so that no combustion residue is produced up to the end of the incense stick. Therefore, new incense sticks can be made and used repeatedly. However, in the case of an outdoor incense holder, especially an installed type incense holder, it is not possible to use an indoor incense holder that constantly stores ashes due to rain and the like. Conventionally, outdoor incense holders have been made of thin bamboo tubes, synthetic resin pipes, metal pipes, etc., each having an inner diameter suitable for holding a bundle of pre-bundled incense sticks. It is usually inserted into the ground or directly embedded in the tombstone. Conventional incense stick holders are used by directly inserting the incense stick into the cylindrical body as described above, and because the heat of combustion of the incense stick is absorbed and radiated, the flame goes out at the point of contact with the cylindrical body, causing the incense stick to burn out. The end portion of the cylinder remains unheated inside the cylinder. These unheated burning residues solidify inside the cylinder due to sunlight or wind and rain, and have the disadvantage that removal work is extremely complicated when making a new incense stick.

(c) Purpose of the invention Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide an outdoor incense holder that allows unburned residue inside the cylinder to be removed very easily and without scattering the residue around. An object of the present invention is to provide a novel outdoor incense stick holder.

(d) Structure of the device In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, this device specifically uses the above-mentioned devices in cooperation with each other in an incense holder for standing upright a bundle of incense sticks that have been bundled in advance. It consists of a pair of cylindrical accommodating parts that can be separated to form a cylindrical accommodating part suitable for receiving one end of an incense stick, and one of the pair of cylindrical accommodating assemblies has an inner part inside the cylindrical accommodating part. This outdoor incense holder is provided with a support bottom wall to catch the residue remaining on the incense holder.

(e) Description of Examples Hereinafter, the outdoor incense stick holder according to this invention will be described in detail based on specific examples shown in the drawings. As is well known, incense sticks are sold commercially as incense sticks (SI), which are made by bundling a suitable number of sticks together. The outdoor incense stick holder 1 of this invention is basically for supporting the incense sticks (SI) in an upright manner while being bundled. FIG. 1 shows the basic structure of the outdoor incense holder according to this invention. The incense holder 1
is formed by a pair of cylindrical accommodating parts assemblies 3 and 4 for cooperating with each other to form a cylindrical accommodating part 2 having an inner diameter (R) suitable for receiving one end of the incense stick bundle (SI). do. According to the example shown in FIG. 1, the cylindrical housing assembly 3 is provided with a leg 5 at its lower end. The leg portion 5 may be integrally formed with the assembly 3, or may be detachably attached. The housing assembly 3 includes a pair of grooves 6, 6 extending along the axis, and the housing assembly 4 includes a pair of flanges 7, 7 extending along the axis. The receptacle assemblies 4 and 5 are adapted to be slidably connected in the axial direction via grooves 6 and flanges 7 provided in each, and form a cylindrical receptacle 2 when engaged.
The lower end of the container assembly 4 is provided with a receiving bottom wall 8 suitable for receiving unburned residue remaining inside the cylindrical container. In this invention, the shape of the cross section of the cylindrical accommodating portion is not limited to the shape shown in the figure, but may have a rectangular cross section, for example, or a shape similar to this. It may be. The outdoor incense stick holder 11 shown in FIG. 2 is a modification of the incense stick holder shown in FIG. In contrast, the other cylindrical housing assembly 14
is a half-cylindrical body that is slidable in the axial direction inside the cylinder, and a residue-receiving bottom wall 15 is provided at the lower end of the half-cylindrical body 14. In the case of this modification as well, the cross-sectional shape is not limited to only the circular shape shown in the drawings. On the other hand, FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of the outdoor incense holder according to this invention. Outdoor incense holder 21 according to this embodiment
, one cylindrical accommodating part assembly 23 forming the cylindrical accommodating part 22 and the other cylindrical accommodating part assembly 24
are pivotally connected via a pin 25 at their lower ends. The cylindrical container assembly 24 is provided at its lower end with a bottom wall 26 suitable for receiving residue remaining inside the cylindrical container. A suitable latch 27 is attached to the upper side of each of the cylindrical housing assemblies 23, 24. On the other hand, the fourth
The figure shows a more preferred embodiment of the outdoor incense holder according to this invention. The outdoor incense stick holder 31 according to this embodiment includes a pair of cylindrical accommodating parts 33 and 34 that cooperate with each other to form a cylindrical accommodating part 32 suitable for bundling incense sticks and receiving one end thereof.
It consists of The cylindrical housing assembly 33 includes legs 35 at its lower end. The leg portion 35 may be detachably attached. As shown in this figure, the leg portion 35 is formed in a tapered shape and can be fitted and connected to the base B of an existing incense stick holder on a tombstone or the like. In this case, the connecting portion is surrounded by the decorative cover member 36 and the like. Said cylindrical housing assembly 33
has a half-cylindrical shell portion 37, and a flange 38 protruding in the axial direction is provided on the upper edge thereof. Further, the receiving surface 39 of the cylindrical housing assembly 33 is provided with a boss 4 having a truncated conical shape, for example.
0 is set. On the other hand, the cylindrical housing assembly 3
4 has a halved cylindrical shell part 41 that cooperates with the halved cylindrical shell part 37 of the cylindrical accommodating part assembly 33 to form a complete cylinder. A receiving bottom wall 42 is provided at the lower end of the half-cylindrical shell 41 for receiving the residue that faces the receiving surface 39 of the cylindrical housing assembly 33. A hole 43 that engages with the boss 40 is provided on the bottom surface of the support bottom wall 42 . A concave groove 44 into which the flange 38 of the cylindrical accommodating part assembly 33 is fitted is provided on the upper end side of the halved cylindrical shell part 41. The cylindrical housing assembly 34 includes a flange plate 4 for receiving combustion incense ash.
5 is provided.

(f) Effects of the invention As described above, the outdoor incense stick holder of this invention has a cylindrical storage part for storing and supporting incense sticks.
The basic structure is formed by a cylindrical accommodating assembly that can be separated or divided into two parts, and a residue receiving bottom wall is provided at the lower end of one cylindrical accommodating assembly. The incense stick residue remaining unburned in the storage part can be removed very easily and without scattering the residue around, making it an extremely effective outdoor incense holder of this type.
