Description

MEANS FOR IGNITING AND METHOD OF ITS PRODUCTION.

The technical field to which the invention relates as a tool.

In its first aspect, the present invention relates to means for ignition comprising a plurality of twisted fibers of combustible wood material covered with paraffin. The present invention can be used to facilitate lighting wood, coal, and other combustible materials in ovens, fireplaces, campfires, and the like.

State of the art.

According to the prior art, such a tool is described in the patent for invention of the Russian Federation N ° 2525112, published in 2012.

This tool is the closest in technical essence and the achieved technical result and is chosen for the prototype of the proposed invention as a tool.

The disadvantage of the prototype is its rapid combustion and the lack of the required strength. This is due to the fact that the fibers of the prototype are thicker (denser) and fall apart (unwind) during combustion.

Disclosure of the invention as a means.

The present invention mainly aims to provide a means for ignition, including a plurality of twisted fibers of combustible wood material, covered with paraffin, which allows to increase the burning time of the means for ignition while increasing the strength of the means for ignition, which is the technical problem.

To achieve this, the fibers of combustible wood material are wound on an oiled wick, which consists of a number of interconnected fibers of hemp rope, while the igniter is additionally coated with sunflower oil, and the igniter consists of the indicated components in the following weight ratio (wt%) : a. wood - 45% -55%,

B. sunflower oil - 20% -30%, c. wick - 0.5% -3%. paraffin - the rest.

Thanks to such advantageous characteristics, it becomes possible to increase the burning time. This is due to the presence of a wick inside the ignition, it is this wick that allows you to increase the burning time without additional sealing of the inner part. Also, the wick base prevents frequent breaks during the technological process of rope production. In addition, since the finished bobbin is dipped into a container with heated sunflower oil, and as a result, the rope is completely saturated with oil. This gives the following during further processing and preservation of the rope with paraffin: wood treated with oil does not allow the fibers to stick together, leaving oxygen between the fibers.

Thanks to such advantageous characteristics, it becomes possible to select the most successful ratio of components to increase the duration of burning of the igniter. And also it becomes possible to save paraffin, create a more environmentally friendly means for ignition.

The basis of the ignition is dry wood and after dipping the wood in oil, the wood absorbs a certain amount of oil. And therefore, when passing through a paraffin bath, the wood cannot absorb a larger (excess) amount of paraffin. Therefore, the necessary paraffin has time to fix only in the upper layer. Getting into the refrigerating chamber, the upper part of the paraffin-impregnated rope solidifies and holds its shape. If we exclude oil impregnation in this method, then the consumption of paraffin by wood increases by 25%. For example, in the prototype the ratio: wood - 50%, paraffin - 50%.

In the present invention, paraffin is mainly 25%, and mainly 25% of sunflower oil, the rest is wood (the weight of the oiled wick can be neglected). This is ensured by the fact that the oiled wick prevents the deep penetration of wax into the wood.

The technical field to which the invention relates as a method.

On its third side, the present invention relates to methods of making a means for ignition, according to which wood is cut into blocks; they perform debarking of blocks, peeling of blocks into veneer, cutting of veneer into wood wool, twisting of fibers combustible wood material; paraffin is applied to the fibers; divide the twisted fibers into pieces of suitable length. The present invention can be used to facilitate lighting wood, coal, and other combustible materials in ovens, fireplaces, campfires, and the like.

The prior art of the method.

The present invention relates to methods for the manufacture of an ignition means. According to the prior art, such a method is also described in the patent for the invention of the Russian Federation N ° 2525112, published in 2012.

This method is the closest in technical essence and the achieved technical result and is chosen for the prototype of the proposed invention as a method.

This prior art describes a method of manufacturing a means for ignition, according to which wood is cut into blocks; debarking blocks, peeling blocks into veneer, cutting veneer into wood wool, twisting the fibers of combustible wood material; paraffin is applied to the fibers; divide the twisted fibers into pieces of suitable length.

The most significant disadvantage of the prototype is that it burns out quickly and does not have the required strength.

Disclosure of the invention as a method.

The present invention mainly aims to propose a method of manufacturing a means for ignition, which allows to provide an increase in the burning time of the means for ignition with increasing strength, which is the set technical problem.

To achieve this goal, the fibers of combustible wood material are twisted onto an oiled wick, which is made from a number of interconnected fibers of hemp rope, then the fibers are tucked into a drum spindle, in which, by twisting, they are formed into a rope, a bobbin is formed from a rope, the bobbin is dipped into a container with a heated with sunflower oil, the bobbin is dried and the sunflower oil is allowed to drain, after which the bobbin is covered with paraffin on the outside, while the components are used in the following proportions in the production of the igniter: • wood - 45% -55%,

• sunflower oil - 20% -30%,

• wick - 0.5% -3%.

• paraffin - the rest.

Thanks to such advantageous characteristics, it becomes possible to increase the time and quality of combustion. This is due to the presence of a wick inside the ignition and air access, it is he who allows you to increase the burning time without additional sealing of the inner part. Also, the wick base prevents frequent breaks during the technological process of rope production. In addition, since the finished bobbin is dipped into a container with heated sunflower oil, and as a result, the rope is completely saturated with oil. This gives the following during further processing and preservation of the rope with paraffin: wood treated with oil does not allow the fibers to stick together, leaving oxygen between the fibers.

There is also another possible embodiment of the invention, in which the means for ignition with paraffin applied to the outer part is placed in an air cooling chamber and in a chamber with low temperatures.

Thanks to such advantageous characteristics, it becomes possible to additionally strengthen the top layer.

There is, in addition, another possible variant of the invention, in which the excess fibers are mechanically removed to give the ignition a commercial form.

Thanks to such advantageous characteristics, it becomes possible to give the ignition a commercial form.

Brief description of the drawings.

Other distinctive features and advantages of this group of inventions clearly follow from the description given below for illustration and not being limiting, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:

- figure 1 depicts the external view of the means for ignition according to the invention, - figure 2 shows the external view of the ignition means, where the oiled wick according to the invention is more clearly visible,

- figure 3 depicts the steps in the manufacture of the means for ignition according to the invention,

According to Figures 1 and 2, the means for igniting comprises a plurality of twisted fibers 1 of combustible wood material covered with paraffin. The twisted fibers 1 of combustible wood material are wound around an oiled wick 2, which consists of a series of interconnected fibers of hemp rope, while the igniter is additionally coated with sunflower oil.

The igniter consists of the indicated components in the following proportion: a. wood - 45% -55%,

B. sunflower oil - 20% -30%, c. wick - 0.5% -3%. d. paraffin - the rest.

Implementation of the invention.

Let us give the most comprehensive example of the implementation of the invention, namely the method of manufacturing the means for ignition, bearing in mind that this example does not limit the application of the invention. According to figure 2:

Stage A1. Cut into blocks.

Stage A2. Churaks are debarked (bark removal).

Stage AZ. Drying of raw materials (blocks) to the desired moisture content. That is, they carry out the processing of blocks into wood wool.

Stage A4. Chura is peeled for veneer (veneer).

Stage A5. The veneer is cut into wood wool (shredder).

Stage A6. Drying of wood wool is carried out if necessary.

Stage A7. The wood wool fibers are twisted onto a specially oiled wick, which consists of a series of interconnected hemp rope fibers.

Stage A8. Then they are tucked into a drum spindle, in which, by twisting, they are formed into a rope - the basis for future ignition. The presence of a wick inside the ignition allows to increase the burning time without additional sealing of the inner part. Also, the wick base prevents frequent breaks during the technological process of rope production. Stage A9. A bobbin is formed from the rope.

Stage A10. The finished bobbin is lowered by dipping it into a container with heated sunflower oil. As a result, the rope is completely saturated with oil. This gives the following during further processing and preservation of the rope with paraffin: wood treated with oil does not allow the fibers to stick together, leaving access to oxygen between the fibers and provides less paraffin consumption.

Stage A11. Dry the bobbin with a wick, while the excess oil drains off.

Stage A12. The rope with a wick is impregnated by pulling it through a bath with heated paraffin, which creates a dense surface outside the ignition, which allows it to keep its cylindrical shape. As a result, the density of ignition is denser outside than inside, which allows the core to burn more efficiently due to the access of oxygen inside the ignition.

Stage A13. The paraffin rope is then fed into the air cooling chamber where the lichny paraffin is knocked down by air and the primary cooling takes place.

Stage A14. Then the paraffin rope is fed into the chamber with low temperatures. The rope enters the freezer where it acquires a dense shape and presentation.

Stage A15. After that, the excess fibers are mechanically removed to give the ignition a commercial form.

Stage A16. The ignition is fed into the chopping press, which chops it to the desired length.

An example of a remedy.

If you go beyond the indicated intervals, the burning time decreases.

An example of a method.

• Twisting the fibers of the combustible wood material onto an oiled wick, which is made from a series of interconnected hemp rope fibers, select the thickness of the hemp rope from 3 to 5 mm.

• Next, the fibers are threaded into a drum spindle, in which they are twisted into a rope.

• Form a bobbin from the rope (bobbin size 50 cm long, diameter

40 cm).

• Dip the bobbin into a stainless steel container (container size 100 cm long, 70 cm wide, 70 cm deep) with heated sunflower oil.

• Select the oil temperature from 30 ° C to 40 ° C.

• Dry the bobbin.

• Allow the sunflower oil to drain (this happens naturally within 2 hours).

• Cover the outside of the spool with paraffin.

• After that the bobbin is installed on the broaching machine, and it passes through a bath with paraffin heated to 70 ° C.

• They are fed into an air-cooled chamber and then passed through a freezer.

• Then, through the track mechanism, they are fed to the chopping press.

• The whole process is automated and represents a continuous line, where after cutting to the required ignition length it is put into a box and packed. As a result of tests, it was found that the burning time of the ignition agent was increased to 16 minutes.

Industrial applicability.

The proposed means for ignition can be carried out by a specialist in practice and, when implemented, ensures the implementation of the declared purpose, which allows us to conclude that the criterion of "industrial applicability" for the invention is met.

In accordance with the proposed invention, a prototype of the means for ignition is made.

Lighter size: length 50 mm, diameter 25-35 mm.

Composition of the ignition agent:

1. Wood - 4.9 g

2. Sunflower oil - 2.5 g

3. Paraffin -2.5 g

4. Hemp wick impregnated with sunflower oil - 0.1 g

Tests of a prototype of a means for ignition have shown that:

- due to new signs, the combustion process increases up to 9-12 minutes;

- the igniter becomes stronger.

Thus, due to the fact that the twisted fibers of combustible wood material are wound on an oiled wick, which consists of a number of interconnected fibers of hemp rope, while the igniter is additionally coated with sunflower oil and the claimed technical result is achieved, namely: an increase in the burning time of the means for ignition with increasing strength.

Sunflower oil has been selected for the sake of sustainability of the igniter.

An additional beneficial effect of using the proposed means for ignition is that after combustion, a small amount of paraffin remains in the fireplace (unlike analogs), which reduces the level of danger the next time the fireplace is fired.
