ATTYE.
United States Patent 1 SIMULATED CANDLE AND WICK HOLDER Claims. (Cl. 431-310) This application is a continuation-in-part of my application Ser. No. 530,314 filed Feb. 28, 1966, and now Patent No. 3,315,497, granted Apr. 15, 1967.
This invention relates to a device simulating a candle for burning combustible liquids and to a wick holder for holding and positioning a wick in such a device.
As disclosed in the aforementioned co-pending application, a device embodying the invention is particularly suitable for use with receptacles for holding food and drink, such as casserole dishes and carafes, to maintain the contents thereof warm. The device is capable of burning low-cost combustible liquids, such as salad oil, to provide an inexpensive source of light and heat. Also, due to the fact that the device can burn combustible liquids which are transparent or at least light-transmitting, light is given off in all directions from the source of flame which further enhances the decorative effect of the device.
Also in accordance with the invention, an improved wick holder is contemplated, which holder is made from a single piece of wire. The wire is helically wound in a cylindrical shape to form a tube for the wick, with the wire extending outwardly at one end of the cylinder in an increasing radius and terminating in a generally circular form to complete a base for the cylindrical portion of the wick holder. The wire wick holder can be made rapidly on automatic machinery and also inexpensively. Further, the circular base portion of the wick holder can constitute a locating device for centrally positioning the wick holder in a container for combustible fluids. The cylindrical portion of the wick holder serves to maintain the wick in proper position and at proper height, to aid in regulating the length of the flame. With the turns of wire in the cylindrical portion maintained close together, the wick is also prevented from burning below the top of the cylinder should the supply of liquid become exhausted.
Also in accordance with the invention, a device for burning liquids can be employed with a built-in annular reservoir for the liquid to enable the device to operate for substantially longer periods of time without refilling.
It is, therefore, a principal object of the invention to provide an improved device for burning combustible liquids.
Another object of the invention is to provide an improved low-cost wick holder for such a device.
A further object of the invention is to provide an improved wick holder having a cylindrical portion and a base portion all made of a single piece of wire disposed helically and spirally.
Yet another object of the invention is to provide a device for burning a light-transmitting combustible liquid which is supplied from an annular reservoir surrounding the device.
Many other objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following detailed description of preferred embodiments thereof, reference being made to the accompanying drawing, in which:
FIG. 1 is an overall view in perspective, with parts broken away, of a combustible liquid burning device embodying the invention;
FIG. 2 is a view in vertical cross section taken centrally through the device of FIG. 1;
"ice
FIG. 3 is a view in perspective of a wick holder according to the invention;
FIG. 4 is a vertical sectional view of a modified combustible liquid burning device embodying the invention in which an annular reservoir is provided for the combustible liquid; and
FIG. 5 is a top view of the device of FIG. 4.
Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, a combustible liquid fuel burning device according to the invention is indicated at 10. In a preferred form, the device 10 includes a receptacle 12 made in one piece of polystyrene plastic material. The receptacle 12 has a sidewall 14 with a light diffusing outer surface 16 which can include a plurality of ridgeshaped surfaces which effectively diffuse the light trans mitted through the wall 14. A bottom 18 is integral with the sidewall 14 and is located above the lower edge of the sidewall so that the lower edge provides, in effect, a supporting base for the device 10. The sidewall 14 and the bottom 18 define a combustible liquid chamber 20, the diameter of which exceeds its depth.
A wick holder 22 is located in the container 12 and supports a wick 24 with the upper end thereof located near a plane through the upper edge of the sidewall 14. The wick holder 22 constitutes a tubular or cylindrical portion 26 and a base portion 28 which are made of a single piece of wire. The wire is Wound in a tight helix with adjacent turns in contact with one another to form the cylindrical portion 26, at the lower end of which the wire extends outwardly, substantially in a common plane, in a spiral of increasing radius which preferably finally terminates in a substantially circular turn to form the base 28.
The outer turn of the wire is preferably of a diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the bottom 18. Hence, when the wick holder 22 is placed in the container 12, the outer turn of the base 28 will fit within the sidewall, at the periphery of the bottom 18, to help centrally locate the cylindrical wick holder portion 26 centrally with respect to the container 12. In this manner, no special provisions need be molded into the container 12 to help receive and locate the wick. Further, with the holder made of the single piece of wire, the cost thereof can be maintained at a minimum. The wire, for example, can be galvanized soft wire of 0.030 inch diameter.
It is important in the cylindrical wick holder portion 26 that the turns of wire be in contact or substantially in contact with one another because it has been found that if the wire is spaced apart to any extent, the wick can burn down below the top of the holder as the liquid is depleted and the level drops.
When the chamber 20 is filled with combustible liquid, as salad oil, the oil will be carried up the wick 24 from the bottom of the holder 26 where it will burn with a yellow flame at the top of the device. The light from the flame will be transmitted to the combustible liquid and through the sidewall 14 where it can be dilfused by the surface 16 and provide an extremely attractive source of light.
The device is effective when used individually as a source of heat to maintain coffee in a carafe, for example, at an elevated temperature. Further, several of the devices can be used under a larger casserole dish to warm food therein. When the receptacle 12 is filled with oil to the top of the holder 26, the supply is sufficient to last for as long as four hours, even when the receptacle is only about one-and-three-eighths inch in diameter and about three-fourths inch deep.
By using salad oil as a combustible liquid, the fuel cost is very low. Further, the device itself is inexpensive, particularly when made of one-piece plastic material with the wick holder made of wire. Consequently, both the 3 fuel and the device are low in cost and have widespread applications.
When longer periods of combustion are desired, a combustible liquid fuel burning device indicated at 30 in FIGS. 4 and 5 can be employed. The device includes an annular fuel chamber 32 formed by inner and outer sidewalls 34 and 36 along with a bottom wall 38 and upper annular wall 40. The upper wall 40 has an opening 42 selectively closed off by a stopper 44 through which the chamber 32 can be filled. A lower portion of the inner wall 34 of the reservoir has an opening 46 the upper edge of which is located at the level at which liquid is to be maintained in a central chamber 48. In this manner, combustible liquid can be supplied to the central chamber 48, which is formed by the inner sidewall 34 and a central portion 50 of the bottom wall. The bottom central portion 50 has three air tubes 52 extending upwardly therefrom to supply air to the chamber 48 for combustion. A slightly modified wick holder 54 supports a wick 56 slightly above the level of the liquid and near the upper ends of the air tubes 52. This holder is similar to the Wick holder 22 except that the wick holder 54 has a handle 58 extending upwardly from the outer turn of the wire so that the holder can be removed, if desired, from the top of the device 30.
The entire device 30 can be held in and supported by a decorative metal grid supporting stand 60, if desired.
Various modifications of the above described embodiments of the invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and it is to be understood that such modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention, it they are within the spirit and tenor of the accompanying claims.
