Description

A CANDLING CANDLE (or a wax product with a surprise - VISS) is a cache made in the form of a figured, volumetric, wax or paraffin, lighting candle.

The invention relates to consumer goods, namely to gifts and souvenirs, in particular to decorative candles, and is intended for the use of a decorative candle, except for its main purpose, also as a disposable case-cache (music box) for a surprise gift and gift in its original way.

The aim of this invention is to ensure the concealment of an individual surprise gift in the product in the form of a decorative or lighting candle made of wax or paraffin, as well as creating spectacular and sound effects when the candle burns and the appearance of a surprise gift.

The closest analogue is www.v3.espacenet.com EP 1816185 (A1).

The disadvantages of this invention:

- the product is in cardboard;

- each of the wicks placed in the product is ignited separately;

- there is no heat-resistant cap-case.

The technical result is the expansion of the arsenal of technical means for a specific purpose, in particular - the creation of a new object of gift products.

The essence of the technical solution lies in the fact that the product is a hollow candle made of wax or paraffin, with three or more wicks placed inside the candle, around the heat-resistant hood, at a certain distance from it. In this case, the upper ends of all wicks located inside the candle are connected to each other in a knot, and the end of one of the wicks connected together is located outside the candle. The ignition and burning of one wick provides the simultaneous ignition of all wicks embedded in the candle. Combustion of wicks contributes to the combustion or melting of wax or paraffin around the heat-resistant hood, which provides free access to a surprise gift located under the hood.

The use of special dyes, by adding them to molten wax or paraffin in the manufacture of hollow candles, allows the manufacture of VISS in various colors and colors. The use of special paints allows applying various patterns, emblems, company and trademarks to VISS, as well as using various stickers.

In the manufacture of hollow candles, wicks are processed with various flavors (aromatic oils, infusions of herbs, plants and other products used in the perfume industry and medicine, which, when burning products, spread aromatic and other odors) for aesthetic, therapeutic, hygienic and preventive purposes.

To create a sound or spectacular effect, a radio or pyrotechnic device is installed in the stand-candlestick.

The essence of the technical solution of the stand-candlestick is that in the stand-candlestick installed thermal contacts of the radio device. When burning wicks, from high temperature, thermal contacts are triggered, and the radio device is turned on.

When pyrotechnic devices are installed in the stand-candlestick, their operation occurs from the temperature or from the flame of burning candle wicks.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The manufacturing process of a hollow candle (wax product with a surprise - VISS) is similar to the manufacturing process of existing wax and paraffin decorative and household candles.

Disclosure of the invention is based on the principle and technological process of making a wax candle at home, in a makeshift way.

For the manufacture of a hollow candle (VISS) we use a plastic mold 1 (Fig 1), consisting of two identical parts, used for casting a lighting household candle.

Choose a heat-resistant, plastic (glass, aluminum, iron, etc.), transparent (opaque), conical (cylindrical, rectangular, square, etc.) glass (case, pencil case, container, cap) 2 (figure 2 ), the outer diameter of which is 1/3 less than the inner diameter of form 1 (Fig. 1). The height of the glass is less than the internal height of the mold. (The lower the height of the glass in relation to the shape, the longer the product burns.)

We make auxiliary parts from improvised materials (thin plastic, aluminum, tin, plywood, etc.). The most suitable material is thin plexiglass.

Cut a circle 3, with a diameter equal to the inner diameter of the glass 2, and two circles 4, with a diameter equal to the outer diameter of the glass 2 (figure 3).

We divide one circle 4 into several parts, depending on the number of wicks, in the manufactured VISS, for example, into three equal parts, and cut three segments 5, a few millimeters smaller than each of the three parts of circle 4 (Fig. 4).

Glue the segments 5 to the circle 4, at an equal distance from each other. Between the segments formed rectangular grooves 6 (figure 4).

Cut strips of jumper 7, with a width equal to the width of the grooves 6, with a thickness equal to the thickness of the circle 4. The length of the jumpers 7 is slightly larger than the radius of the outer diameter of the form 1 (figure 4).

On circle 4, with segments glued, strictly in the center, glue circle 3.

In the formed rectangular holes, between the circle 3 and the circle 4, we insert strips-jumpers 7. At a certain distance from the circle 4, in the jumpers, we drill holes 9 (Fig. 5). The diameter of the hole 9 is equal to the diameter of the wick thread 1 (Fig.6).

The fabricated structure 1 is the lid of the glass 8 (figure 5).

On the lid 8 (structure 1), install the glass 2 upside down. The wick thread 10 is pulled through the holes 9 in the jumpers 7 and the outer part of the glass 2, i.e. we tie the glass 2 with the wick 10 to the lid 8. The cross of the wicks, on the outer part of the bottom of the glass, is connected with a small segment of the wick 11 to the knot 12 and we get the structure 2 - insert into the form (Fig.6).

We connect the two parts of form 1 with each other and fasten them with rubber rings 13 (Fig. 7) (or in any other way: a clamp, elastic, wire, adhesive tape, electrical tape, etc.).

We insert design 2 strictly in the center, into form 1, after passing the free end of the wick 11 into the hole 14 of form 1.

For the segment of the wick 11 extending from the upper part of the mold 1, we draw the structure 2 to the lower part of the mold 1. To keep the wick 11 in tension, the end of the wick coming out of the mold is fastened with adhesive tape 15 to the outer part of the mold and we obtain design 3 (Fig. 7 ) We turn the structure 3 or rather part down and install it in a vertical, stable position, in any way, for example, in the lower part of the beer can 16 of the appropriate size (Fig. 7).

To better fill the mold and to prevent air bubbles from entering the manufactured product, it is advisable to use a funnel with a long tip. Such a funnel can be made from improvised materials. A part of the plastic bottle is reliably connected to any tube of the corresponding diameter and length, for example, a ballpoint pen housing (Fig. 8).

We melt the wax to a liquid-like state and fill it through a funnel 18, into the hollow part 17 of structure 3, to the level of jumpers 7 (Fig. 7). (As the mass poured into the mold cools, it must be added to the level, because wax and paraffin, when solidified, are compressed in volume by about 1/4 part.)

After hardening the poured mass, we release the manufactured product from the mold, in the following sequence: remove the adhesive tape 15; cut the ends of the wicks 19 from the jumpers 7; remove the rubber rings 13; take out the cover 8, if necessary, pull out the jumpers 7 (Fig.7).

Carefully disconnect form 1 into two parts and remove them from the manufactured product.

From any heat-resistant material, we cut out a circle 3 (Fig. 3) and another circle larger than the outer diameter of the manufactured product. (If necessary, we mount a thermal contact 25 in it (Fig. 18).) Strictly in the center, glue both circles and get a primitive candle holder-stand (Fig. 18). We lay a gift on it, of appropriate sizes, install the manufactured product on top and get VISS - “HOUSEHOLD CANDLE”.

Note: when choosing a gift, it must be borne in mind that when burning the product, a high temperature is created inside the glass.

For sound notification of the moment of combustion of the product (the appearance of a gift), we choose a hollow candlestick, for example matchbox 23 (Fig. 18A). We mount a chip in it, for example, from a broken mobile phone, with a musical work recorded on it or a voice greeting. In the case of the matchbox we mount a thermal contact and connect it to the microcircuit 26 (Fig. 18A). For aesthetic purposes and to comply with fire safety measures, we wrap the matchbox in a heat-resistant material, for example, food foil (thermal contacts must have open access).

Set VISS "Candle household" on the manufactured candlestick 23 (figa). Thermal contacts 25 (Fig. 18) of the product and the candlestick 23 (Fig. 18A) must be reliably connected to each other.

When the product burns out, a thermal contact is activated at a certain temperature, the microcircuit is turned on, and a musical or individual voice greeting is heard. If you mount a screen from a mobile phone and an appropriate chip in a candlestick, then the appearance of a gift will be accompanied by a video greeting.

In a similar way, thermal contacts can be mounted in the candle holders, for remote inclusion of various radio, video, light and household appliances, equipment and other devices, electromechanical devices, radio-controlled toys, etc.

For a more spectacular, spectacular and emotional fixation of the moment the gift appears, when burning the product, you can use pyrotechnic means, such as sparklers.

We install Bengal lights in the selected or made, hollow, corresponding VISS candlestick in such a way that, when connecting the product to the candlestick, they reliably contact the ends of the wicks in the lower part of the product. When the wicks burn out, sparklers light up.

We reveal the manufacturing process of a wax product with a hollow niche inside using the example of VISS “Household Candle”.

The inside of the manufactured product, namely the glass, is briefly heated with steam (over the spout of a boiling kettle) and quickly, gently removed. Inside the product there is a hollow niche corresponding to the outer shape and dimensions of the taken out glass to accommodate a gift.

Note: when burning the product, molten wax (paraffin) will fall on the gift. To prevent damage to the gift, it must first be packaged in an appropriate material, such as foil for food.

To reliably connect the product with the candlestick, it is necessary: to melt the lower part of the product over an open fire (match, lighter, etc.) and quickly press it on the candlestick with a gift attached to it, or drip molten wax or paraffin onto the candlestick with a gift, burning cinder candles, and quickly press the product.

EXAMPLES OF WISS

The basic basis of examples of manufacturing products from wax, paraffin with a surprise is the principle and technological process of manufacturing a hollow candle (VISS) “Household candle”.

The VISS manufacturing process allows the use of existing molds for casting decorative and household candles, as well as the use of new types of molds made by industrial or artisanal methods.

New, various types of VISS made in a home-made way at home can serve as models - samples for the development and manufacture of molds, for injection molding machines, which makes it possible to produce plastic molds for casting products from wax and paraffin in large quantities and organize mass production of VISS as in industrial both at home.

MANUFACTURING VISS "FIR-TREE"

The mold for casting from wax, paraffin of the Christmas tree product can be made at home, for example from plexiglass, 10 mm thick.

On the notebook sheet, in the box, draw the future product (Fig.9).

We cut ten identical, square plates 20 (Fig. 10) from Plexiglas sheet, 10 mm larger than the largest size, i.e. the lower tier of the Christmas tree.

We cut out a conical hole 21 in each square plate 20 (Fig. 10), according to the dimensions of the drawing (Fig. 9) and glue the square plates together. The resulting rectangle is cut vertically into two equal parts and we get the form 1 (11) for casting products "Christmas tree".

The technological process of casting the Christmas tree product is similar to the manufacturing process of VISS Household Candle.

Form 1 "Christmas tree" can be made in various sizes, reducing or increasing the number of plates 20, or using plexiglass of smaller or larger thickness. To increase the thickness of the plates, you can glue several plates together, the same or different in thickness. The tiers of the Christmas tree can also be different in height and width, this will give an original look to the manufactured VISS "Christmas Tree".

The technological process of manufacturing the mold "Christmas tree" allows you to produce one mold for the simultaneous casting of several products, for example three pieces (Fig.32).

Addition: if a special dye is added to the molten wax, paraffin, before pouring the mold, then the manufactured product will have a corresponding color, for example, green.

If, before starting the VISS manufacturing process, the thread-wick is treated with a special flavoring agent, for example, coniferous oil, when burning, the product will spread a coniferous smell, and the fire of the wick will be colored.

MANUFACTURING CYLINDER FORM

The mold for casting products in the form of a cylinder can be made of various materials, such as wood.

Two equal, wooden, smooth bars, for example: length 150 mm, width 50 mm, thickness 25 mm. We connect the bars to each other and fasten them with a clamp (vise, clamps, etc.). In the center of the upper part of the obtained quadrilateral, we drill a vertical, through hole, with a diameter of 40 mm.

From plexiglass (plywood, plastic, etc.) we cut a square 20 (Fig. 14), size 50 × 50 mm, drill a hole 14 in the center, cut a square into two equal parts and glue them to the top of the quadrangle (Fig. 14) . We release the quadrangle from the mount and get a mold 1, consisting of two parts, for casting products from wax, paraffin in the form of a cylinder (Fig.15-17).

The inside of the mold must be sanded and varnished with furniture.

The technological process for casting cylindrical products is similar to the manufacturing process of VISS "Candle household".

The manufacturing process of the mold, for the simultaneous casting of several products in the form of a cylinder, is similar to the manufacturing process of the Christmas tree mold (Fig. 32, Fig. 32B).

As a glass inserted inside a cylindrical shape, it is possible to use, for example, a laboratory, chemical test tube of appropriate sizes (Fig. 14).

TYPES OF HOLLOW CANDLES (WISS)

Using special paints and various candlesticks, you can give the same product different types (Fig.15-17).

A cylindrical product made of paraffin, white:

EXAMPLE No. 1. We put two horizontal stripes of black color on the product. We select or make a candlestick in the form of a handle. We put, for example, banknotes inside the product. We connect the product with a candlestick and get the WISS "Wand police" - an original gift to the traffic police (Fig. 16).

EXAMPLE No. 2. On the top of the product with special paints we apply a drawing - a kind of lit cigarette. We select or manufacture a candlestick in the form of a cigarette filter. We invest, for example, medications that eliminate smoking addiction. We connect the product with a candlestick and get VISS "Cigarette" - an original gift for anyone who wants to quit smoking (Fig. 17).

EXAMPLE No. 3. We leave the product 27 (Fig.15) in its natural form. On the candlestick 23 (Fig. 15) we install a vertical rack with a crossbeam and a chain with a cross hanging on it. We connect the product with a candlestick and get VISS "Ritual Candle" - a gift to the person who accepted the baptismal ceremony (Fig. 15).

One and the same product in various ways, with the help of paints and a variety of candlesticks can be modified according to a gala event or event.

Additionally, for each of the VISSs, spectacular and sound greetings and emotional effects can be mounted in the corresponding candlestick.

VARIETIES OF PRODUCTS FOR ONE CANDLESTICK

For the same candlestick, a variety of wax and paraffin products can be made.

There is a part of an oval hollow (monolithic) figure - this is a candlestick 23 (Figs. 19-25, 41).

We make a mold for casting the product of the appropriate type and size (figa, B, C, D).

The manufacturing process of making the shape oval, curly, round (Fig.26-29) is similar to the manufacturing process of the mold for VISS "Christmas tree" (Fig.9-11, Fig.32, 32A).

The technological process of casting products from wax and paraffin is similar to the manufacturing process of the product “Candle household”.

We insert the appropriate gift into the manufactured product, combine it with a candlestick and get VISS.

The name VISS depends on the drawing applied to the product and the candlestick, for example:

- Fig.19 - "EGG" or "EASTER EGG";

- Fig.22 - "MATRUSHA" or Fig.21 - "8th MARCH";

- Fig.24 options: - "BALL", "BALL", "BOWS", "watermelon", "GLOBE", etc .;

- Fig.23 - “LAMP”, if the manufactured product is carefully cut “thread” and accordingly painted - “PEAR”;

- Fig.20 is a more complex form - "NEWBORN" or "CHICKEN";

- Fig.25 - "ROSE" or "TULIP", this product can be inserted into the corresponding bouquet of fresh flowers, i.e. a bouquet of flowers will serve as an additional candlestick.

MANUFACTURE OF RECTANGULAR FORMS

At home, in the artisanal way, molds for casting products from wax, paraffin can be made of various types and configurations rectangular, square, semicircular, oval, conical, cylindrical. From various materials: wood, clay, rubber, plastic, plexiglass, metal, etc., of various sizes and types - curly, convex and concave.

For the manufacture of a rectangular shape, we take an affordable and easy to process material - sheet plexiglass, small thickness.

Cut four identical rectangles 20A of certain sizes. We cut (drill) curly holes 28 in them (Fig. 33).

We cut four identical rectangles 20 wide, more than the width of the quadrangles 20A, by size "A" (size "A" is equal to two thicknesses of plexiglass) (Fig. 33).

We glue the quadrangles 20 and 20A in pairs and get four walls (ribs) 29 of the manufactured shape (Fig. 33).

In two strips of plexiglass 20 (Fig. 34), cut rectangular holes equal to the inner 21A and outer 21B size of the assembled form 1 (Fig. 34). Glue the plexiglass strips together and get the bottom base 33 of form 1 (Fig. 34).

In the strip 20 (Fig. 34) we cut a rectangular hole 21B equal to the outer size of the mold 1. In the strip 20 (Fig. 34) we drill a hole 14 equal to the diameter of the wick thread. Glue both strips 20 and get the upper base 34 of form 1 (Fig. 34).

In the bases 33 and 34, we drill holes 29 for the coupling bolts (Fig. 34A).

We assemble the quadrangular shape 1 from the walls (ribs) 29. Using the rubber rings 13 we tightly connect the walls to each other.

Insert the mold frame into the base 33, install the base 34 from above. We tighten the bases 33 and 34 with bolts 31 with nuts 32.

The prefabricated structure 2 (Fig. 6) is inserted into the assembled form and we obtain the prefabricated structure 4 (Fig. 5) for casting rectangular products.

The process of casting the product is similar to the manufacturing process of VISS "Candle household."

After cooling the mass, poured into the assembled form, disassemble the form and get VISS "PLAYING CARDS" (Fig. 36).

VISS MANUFACTURE AS A VOLUME FIGURE

From improvised materials, in a makeshift way, we make a three-dimensional mold for casting the product, for example, in the form of a heart, and the corresponding candlestick.

We draw the future product 41 (Fig. 42), a top view - Fig. 42A, side view - Fig. 42B).

PRODUCTION OF FORMS FROM HANDLING MATERIALS

A variety of hollow objects can serve as a mold for casting products from wax and paraffin: pipe sections, plastic bottles, beer cans, plastic and rubber toys, and much more.

For example, we take a segment of a plastic cylindrical pipe 36 (Fig.37).

The mold manufacturing process is similar to the manufacturing process described in section 5.5.

For a piece of pipe 36, in the bases 33 and 34 (Fig. 37) we cut round holes 21B and 21G.

As a result of the assembly process of the mold and casting, we obtain a cylindrical product on which you can apply the corresponding pattern or stickers, as well as use as a blank for the manufacture of VISS handmade.

MANUFACTURING VISS

VISS can be made as follows: according to the manufacturing principle of VISS "Household Candle" we make a wax product, with a glass or a niche, and a wick inside (Fig. 40) - this is a "workpiece".

With the tools intended for woodcarving, we cut out any desired shape and get a shaped product from wax, paraffin with a hollow niche inside. We select or make a candlestick, set a gift on it, connect it with the manufactured product, apply the corresponding pattern and get the WISS of INDIVIDUAL HANDWORK.

OTHER METHODS FOR PRODUCING FORMS AND CANDLESTICKS FROM SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS

There are many ways to make molds and candle holders from various materials at hand. We put the supposed type of VISS from plasticine or clay, cut it out of wood, grind it from metal, weld, solder, glue, etc. Or we take a finished item, product, toy made of glass, plastic, metal, rubber, wood, etc. Fill a manufactured or selected object or figure with a solution of gypsum, epoxy resin, raw, self-vulcanizing rubber (used in the jewelry industry, etc.), silicone, formoplast, etc. After the solidified material has completely solidified, we take out the object or figure inside (if necessary, make cuts). As a result, we get a mold for casting products from wax, paraffin.

According to various existing methods and methods, various candle holders can be made from utility materials and objects - VISS stands, both monolithic and hollow, of unlimited sizes and shapes.
