Description
VELA ECOLÓGICA
ECOLOGICAL CANDLE
OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓN OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La presente invención se refiere a una vela ecológica integrada por un cuerpo de cera vegetal y una mecha para el encendido de la misma, en la que el cuerpo de cera vegetal se dispone en un contenedor biodegradable ignífugo, de forma que se obtiene un elemento luminoso y decorativo totalmente biodegradable y ecológicamente sostenible, ya que no posee componentes procedentes del petróleo. The present invention refers to an ecological candle composed of a body of vegetable wax and a wick for lighting it, in which the body of vegetable wax is placed in a fire-retardant biodegradable container, so that a luminous element is obtained and fully biodegradable and ecologically sustainable decorative, since it does not contain components from petroleum.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓN BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Son conocidas en el estado de la técnica las velas integradas por un cuerpo de cera y una mecha parcialmente embebida en el mismo sobre la que se prende la llama, la cual se alimenta del propio material del cuerpo de cera. De manera habitual, el material del cuerpo de cera es mayoritariamente parafina, sustancia que se obtiene como subproducto en el refinado del petróleo o a partir de materias bituminosas. The candles are known in the state of the art consisting of a wax body and a wick partially embedded in it on which the flame is lit, which feeds on the material of the wax body itself. The wax body material is usually mainly paraffin, a substance that is obtained as a by-product in oil refining or from bituminous materials.
Las velas de parafina no resultan ecológicamente sostenibles, puesto que proceden de combustibles fósiles no renovables. El humo que producen este tipo de velas contiene compuestos químicos perjudiciales para la salud, como la acetona, el benceno, el tolueno o el tetracloruro de carbono, afectando especialmente a personas con problemas respiratorios, niños y animales de compañía. Asimismo, el hollín negro que se desprende de la quema de velas de parafina es el mismo que el de la quema de combustibles fósiles, y además de resultar tóxico, ensucia las paredes y los muebles de la estancia donde se encienda la vela. Paraffin candles are not ecologically sustainable, since they come from non-renewable fossil fuels. The smoke produced by this type of candle contains chemical compounds that are harmful to health, such as acetone, benzene, toluene or carbon tetrachloride, especially affecting people with respiratory problems, children and pets. Likewise, the black soot that comes from burning paraffin candles is the same as that from burning fossil fuels, and in addition to being toxic, it dirties the walls and furniture of the room where the candle is lit.
Las mechas de las velas convencionales contienen igualmente productos tóxicos, sumándose a la contaminación provocada por la combustión de la parafina. Conventional candle wicks also contain toxic products, adding to the contamination caused by the burning of paraffin.
Otro de los inconvenientes que presentan las velas de parafina es su elevado punto de fusión, entre 55eC y 70eC, por lo que existe un elevado riesgo de quemaduras si se entra en
contacto directo con la parafina fundida. Adicionalmente, el residuo de parafina fundida es difícil de limpiar y eliminar de otros tejidos o materiales. Another drawback of paraffin candles is their high melting point, between 55 e C and 70 e C, so there is a high risk of burns if you enter direct contact with the molten paraffin. Additionally, molten paraffin residue is difficult to clean and remove from other fabrics or materials.
En relación al aprovechamiento del material, las velas de parafina no se consumen por completo, lo que supone un desperdicio de producto y la generación de un residuo no biodegradable. Regarding the use of the material, paraffin candles are not completely consumed, which means a waste of product and the generation of a non-biodegradable residue.
A la problemática anteriormente expuesta se suma el hecho de que las velas convencionales de parafina se presentan habitualmente en un contenedor de cristal o de plástico, tal como policloruro de vinilo (en adelante PVC) o polipropileno (en adelante PP). In addition to the aforementioned problems, the fact that conventional paraffin candles are usually presented in a glass or plastic container, such as polyvinyl chloride (hereinafter PVC) or polypropylene (hereinafter PP).
Los contenedores de PVC no se queman, pero al entrar en contacto con el fuego, generan emisiones de metales pesados, compuestos organoclorados o cloruro de hidrógeno, que en contacto con humedad (por ejemplo, en los pulmones) forma ácido clorhídrico. Éste es un gas corrosivo que ocasiona graves quemaduras y daños en el sistema respiratorio de las personas, además de considerables daños materiales. PVC containers do not burn, but when in contact with fire, they generate emissions of heavy metals, organochlorine compounds or hydrogen chloride, which in contact with moisture (for example, in the lungs) forms hydrochloric acid. This is a corrosive gas that causes severe burns and damages to the respiratory system of people, in addition to considerable material damage.
Una vez utilizada la vela, el contenedor de PVC resulta un residuo con un proceso de reciclaje poco eficiente y caro. El residuo reciclado es de baja calidad, debido a los numerosos aditivos que acompañan al PVC. Once the candle is used, the PVC container is a waste with an inefficient and expensive recycling process. The recycled waste is of low quality, due to the numerous additives that accompany PVC.
En caso de que el contenedor para la vela sea de cristal, el conjunto resulta pesado y por tanto caro de transportar, y adicionalmente existe un riego considerable de cortes o golpes en caso de una caída. If the container for the candle is made of glass, the set is heavy and therefore expensive to transport, and additionally there is considerable risk of cuts or blows in the event of a fall.
Así, no se conoce por parte del solicitante del presente modelo de utilidad ninguna vela ecológica que resulte totalmente biodegradable, en la que todos sus elementos constituyentes, el cuerpo de cera, el contenedor y la mecha, sean biodegradables y que por tanto sea medioambientalmente sostenible en su totalidad. Thus, there is no known by the applicant for this utility model any ecological candle that is completely biodegradable, in which all its constituent elements, the wax body, the container and the wick, are biodegradable and therefore environmentally sustainable. In its whole.
DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
La vela ecológica objeto de la presente invención resuelve la problemática anteriormente expuesta, al proporcionar un producto totalmente biodegradable y que resulta ventajoso tanto desde un punto de vista económico, como comercial y funcional.
Así, la vela ecológica que se preconiza queda integrada por, al menos, los siguientes elementos: The ecological candle object of the present invention solves the aforementioned problem, by providing a totally biodegradable product that is advantageous both from an economic point of view, as well as a commercial and functional one. Thus, the ecological candle that is recommended is made up of, at least, the following elements:
- Un cuerpo de cera vegetal que está formado por grasas hidrogenadas y refinadas. - A body of vegetable wax that is made up of refined and hydrogenated fats.
- Una mecha de material biodegradable para el encendido de la vela, estando la mecha parcialmente embebida en el cuerpo de cera vegetal. - A wick of biodegradable material for lighting the candle, the wick being partially embedded in the body of vegetable wax.
- Un contenedor biodegradable ignífugo que delimita un espacio interior donde se dispone el cuerpo de cera vegetal. - A fire retardant biodegradable container that delimits an interior space where the body of vegetable wax is arranged.
El cuerpo de cera vegetal se obtiene a partir de aceite vegetal refinado, dando lugar a grasas hidrogenadas y refinadas, por lo que su combustión no provoca la emisión de compuestos tóxicos al ambiente. Con objeto de ahondar en el carácter ecológico de la presente invención, los aceites vegetales a partir de los cuales se obtiene el cuerpo de cera vegetal proceden, preferentemente, de productos vegetales no modificados genéticamente. The body of vegetable wax is obtained from refined vegetable oil, giving rise to hydrogenated and refined fats, so that its combustion does not cause the emission of toxic compounds into the environment. In order to delve into the ecological character of the present invention, the vegetable oils from which the body of vegetable wax is obtained preferably come from non-genetically modified plant products.
De forma preferente el aceite vegetal a emplear en la elaboración del cuerpo de cera vegetal es aceite de soja, aceite de coco o una mezcla de ambos, ya que estos aceites dan lugar a un cuerpo de cera vegetal con un punto de fusión menor que el punto de fusión de las velas en base a parafina o en base a otros aceites vegetales. Concretamente, el punto de fusión de la vela ecológica se sitúa entre 35e y 50eC, por lo que se reduce el riesgo de quemaduras y se contribuye a preservar los beneficios de los aceites esenciales naturales que puedan contener, y que a mayor temperatura se volatilizarían. Preferably the vegetable oil to be used in the elaboration of the vegetable wax body is soybean oil, coconut oil or a mixture of both, since these oils give rise to a vegetable wax body with a lower melting point than the melting point of candles based on paraffin or based on other vegetable oils. Specifically, the melting point of the organic candle is between 35 and 50 and C, so reducing the risk of burns and helps preserve the benefits of natural essential oils which may contain, and higher temperature they would volatilize.
Adicionalmente, este punto de fusión más bajo en comparación con el de otras velas conocidas, hace que la vela ecológica se consuma por completo, por lo que no hay desperdicio de material. Así, la vela ecológica objeto de la presente invención resulta apta no solo para aplicaciones de iluminación o estéticas, sino como vela para masajes. Additionally, this lower melting point compared to other known candles means that the eco-friendly candle is completely consumed, so there is no material waste. Thus, the ecological candle object of the present invention is suitable not only for lighting or aesthetic applications, but as a massage candle.
Otra de las ventajas de la vela ecológica de la invención es que el material del cuerpo de cera vegetal es soluble en agua, por lo que resulta fácil de limpiar cualquier posible resto de esta cera en tejidos u otros materiales.
Cabe destacar igualmente que la mecha embebida parcialmente en el cuerpo de cera vegetal es también biodegradable, en contraposición a las mechas convencionales cuya combustión provoca la emisión de compuestos nocivos. Another advantage of the ecological candle of the invention is that the vegetable wax body material is soluble in water, making it easy to clean any possible remainder of this wax in fabrics or other materials. It should also be noted that the wick partially embedded in the body of vegetable wax is also biodegradable, as opposed to conventional wicks whose combustion causes the emission of harmful compounds.
El conjunto integrado por el cuerpo de cera vegetal y la mecha biodegradable se dispone en el espacio interior de un contenedor biodegradable ignífugo. Este contenedor, además de ser fácilmente reciclable en su totalidad, elimina el uso de materiales nocivos como el PVC o el PP, así como la emisión de compuestos tóxicos. The set consisting of the body of vegetable wax and the biodegradable wick is arranged in the interior space of a fire-retardant biodegradable container. This container, in addition to being easily recyclable in its entirety, eliminates the use of harmful materials such as PVC or PP, as well as the emission of toxic compounds.
El conjunto se complementa, de manera opcional, con una cubierta a modo de tapa para el cubrimiento de la vela ecológica. Esta cubierta se integra igualmente por un material biodegradable, de manera análoga al resto de componentes integrantes de la vela ecológica. The set is complemented, optionally, with a cover as a cover to cover the ecological candle. This cover is also integrated by a biodegradable material, analogously to the other components of the ecological candle.
Se obtiene por tanto una vela ecológica integrada por distintos componentes que resultan totalmente biodegradables, lo que redunda en un producto sostenible medioambientalmente y que al mismo tiempo resulta económico, fácil de transportar y seguro durante su uso, gracias al bajo punto de fusión del cuerpo de cera vegetal. Therefore, an ecological candle is obtained, made up of different components that are totally biodegradable, which results in an environmentally sustainable product and at the same time it is economical, easy to transport and safe to use, thanks to the low melting point of the body of vegetable wax.
