Patented Oct. 28, 1947 WICK HOLDER Norbert C. H. Muench, Syracuse, N. Y., assignor to Muench-Kreuzer Candle 00., Inc., Syracuse, N. Y., a corporation of New York Application October 18, 1945, Serial No. 623,010
2 Claims.
This invention relates to holders for the wicks of candles and has for its object a holder to which the wicks may be applied without tangs struck from the holder being liable to out into or through the wick, and also a holder to which the wick may be quickly applied.
The invention consists in the novel features and in the combinations and constructions hereinafter set forth and claimed.
In describing this invention, reference is bad to the accompanying drawings in which like characters designate corresponding parts inall the views.
Figure l is an elevation of this wick holder with a wick applied thereto and the candle shown in broken line.
Figure 2 is an end view looking upwardly in Figure 1.
Figure 3 is an inverted plan View of the wick holder itself.
Figure 4 is a sectional view taken diagrammatically of Figure 3 through the Wick holding tang.
Figure 5 shows a plurality of holders stacked in compact form preliminary to being applied to the wicks.
In some cases, wicks are applied to the candles after the candles are formed by being inserted through an axial bore in the candle, and these wicks are attached to a plate which lies against or is impressed into the butt end. of the candle. The wick-holders are formed of sheet material, usually tinned sheet metal, and are round or disks and other shapes. The wick holder here shown is a disk. The invention lies in formin the sheet material or metal base plate of the wick holder with a perforation and with a tang struck therefrom at one side of the perforation and extending radially relatively thereto, the tang being so arranged as to bend across the perforation on the lower side of the plate and against the end of a candle wick inserted through the perforation, from the lower side thereof, and to be clinched on the end portion of the wick below the perforation. The clinching bends that Wick portion against the lower side of the plate or clamps it betweenthe tang and the plate. In this position, the tang extends across the perforation and in a general parallel direction to the lower side of the plate.
I designates the candle holder or plate,- which is here shown as a disk, formed with a perforation 2, preferably at the center thereof and with a tang 3 struck from the plate and. extending in a radial direction from the perforation 2 at one side of and near the perforation. 4 designates the wick. A wick of proper length for the candle to which it is to be applied, is inserted through the perforation 2 with a relatively short end poris applied by tangs and the like to the candle wick. After the tang 3 is struck from the body of the plate I, it naturally would lie in or near the plane of the plate, but in order to facilitate stacking, the tangs are bent down at an angle to the lower side of the plate, and preferably an oblique angle, so that the tangs 3 of any disk,
except the lowermost in the stack, extend through c the slot left by the tangs in the disk directly below, as seen in Figure 5. When the wicks are applied to the base plates, the tangs are at such angle that they can be readily bent over the perforations 2 and clinched onto the end portions 5 of the wick. This may be done either by hand or by machine.
What I claim is:
1. A candle wick holder comprising a, base plate having a perforation therein for receiving the candle wick when inserted from the lower side thereof, and a tang located at one side of the perforation extended radially relatively thereto and clinchable across the perforation over onto the portion of the candle wick below the plate after the wick is inserted through the perforation.
2. A candle wick holder comprising a base plate having a perforation therein for receiving the candle wick when inserted from the lower side thereof, and a tang located at one side of the perforation extended. radially relatively thereto and clinchable across the perforation over onto the portion of the candle wick below the plate after the wick is inserted through the perforation, the tang being struck from the plate and initially bent in a position at an angle to the plate for facilitating stacking of the plates and clinching of the tangs when the wicks are being applied to the individual plates taken from the stack.
