A flame-resistant wick includes a hollow chamber and at least one capillary structure surrounding the hollow chamber. The at least one capillary structure is interlaced by a plurality of wire strands into a tubular shape. Each of the plurality of wire strands consists of a plurality of core wires made of a material having a melting point of not less than 800° C.

A candle wick (14) comprises a first wick member (16A) and a second wick member (16B). The first wick member (16A) includes a first slot (218A). The second wick member (16B) includes a second slot (218B). The second slot (218B) is engaged with the first slot (218A) so that the second wick member (16B) is engaged with the first wick member (16A) in an interlocking manner. The first wick member (16A) can be engaged at an angle with the second wick member (16B). The first wick member (16A) and the second wick member (16B) can be positioned at right angles or other than right angles relative to one another. Further, the first wick member (16A) includes a first wood material and the second wick member (16B) includes a second wood material. The first wood material can be substantially similar to the second wood material, or the first wood material can be different than the second wood material.

A scented candle is provided which includes a dual braided wick in a candle mass. The candle mass is positioned on an inwardly sloping platform and such platform is snugly fit into a noncombustible container. A wick clip with louvers that secures and centers the wick in the candle mass allows maximum fuel flow to the wick during use to ensure full consumption of the melted candle mass.

A metallic wick assembly includes at least one mesh member and a sleeve member. The at least one mesh member includes a first length defined between first and second ends thereof. The sleeve member is mounted around the mesh member and includes a second length defined between two longitudinal opposite ends thereof. The second length is less than the first length. A third length is defined between a distal end of the sleeve member and the first end of the mesh member. The sleeve member is slidable with respect to the mesh member to adjust the third length for controlling the flame scale.

A melody candle for reproducing sounds recorded as digital sound files includes a candle having a flammable wick having a free end and at least one optic fiber that is fastened thereto and oriented along a long dimension of said wick; a candle base having an upper surface configured to hold said candle securely; a chip group including at least one flash memory chip configured so that digital sound files can be downloaded thereto or erased therefrom; a photo sensor configured so as to activate said chip group upon receiving light emanating from a source of illumination by means of said optic fiber, said optic fiber being arranged so as to detect light emanating from said candle; and a speaker means for converting electric signals generated by said chip group into audible signals.
摘要:
The present invention relates to melting plate candles which employ heat conductive elements to distribute heat from a burning flame at a wick to a support plate for a solid fuel and to the body of said solid fuel, so as to more rapidly liquefy the solid fuel, such as paraffin wax, and to more uniformly and intensely heat such fuels to increase the efficiency of consumption thereof and to more rapidly release volatile materials contained within said fuels. The heat conductive support plate is configured so as to have a capillary pedestal upon the surface thereof, which cooperatively engages a wick holder comprising a preferably consumable wick and heat conductive fins which conduct heat from a flame upon said wick to said support plate, said wick holder further engaging said capillary pedestal in such a locking manner as to resist accidental removal from said pedestal. The fuel may be provided in various forms, configured to cooperatively engage said wick holder and support plate, and may comprise various volatile materials. The capillary pedestal, in conjunction with the wick holder, causes rapid and complete flow of the liquefied fuel to said wick.

Wicks and candles with reduced smoke production. In presently-preferred embodiments, the wick includes a flame-retardant material that is dispersed substantially uniformly throughout at least a portion of the wick. The flame retardant material may be distributed throughout the wick or selectively in the sheath or core of the wick. In an alternative embodiment, the flame-retardant material may be uniformly dispersed in only a portion of the strands of the wick. The flame-retardant material is included a concentration that reduces smoke production, malodor production, or afterglow in the wick or candle after the candle is extinguished. Presently-preferred components of the flame-retardant material include inorganic salts that include bromine, phosphorus, or boron, organohalogens, or phosphorus-containing compounds.

The system and method for manufacturing the composite candle wick includes a mechanism for feeding the cotton wick and wood wick at substantially the same speeds. The wood wick is heated in order to cause a melting of a wax coating around the cotton wick and pressure is applied to the wick materials through a compression wheel and drive belt which carries the wick materials. Once the pressure is applied to form the composite wick the wicks are then sent through a cutting tube where a cutting blade will cut the wick to its desired length.

A rigid planar wick and one or more fabric wicks are adhered together for use in candles. The fabric wicks may be planar fabric wicks, traditional shaped string-shaped wicks or a fabric sheath. The rigid wick is of a predetermined width, length, and thickness and the planar fabric wick is of some dimension equal to, less than, or greater than the planar surface area of the rigid wick. By combining both a planar fabric wick and a rigid planar wick, consistency in flame heights can be achieved, providing an improved wick for candle use.
摘要:
A method for extinguishing a candle at timed intervals using a combustible material is disclosed. In one exemplary embodiment, the method includes: utilizing a combustible composition adapted for application to a wick segment; utilizing a combustible first wick segment; coupling a combustible second wick segment to the combustible first wick segment; placing the combustible second wick segment adjacent to the first wick segment; and configuring the combustible second wick segment to, as the combustible first wick segment, once ignited, burns down to the combustible second wick segment, interrupt and slowly self-extinguish the burning of the first wick segment. The candle wick is configured to be relit, post extinguishment, without having to physically remove a non-combustible barrier. A combustible composition also is disclosed. A candle further is disclosed.
