Definitions

  • the invention relates to a candle with a vessel containing a transparent gel wax and at least one wick, the melting point of which is higher than that of the gel wax, and a method for producing a candle.
  • a candle based on a gel wax usually comprises a vessel that stabilizes the gel wax, and its shape is limited, since the candle also requires a sufficient amount of combustion air at its lower end.
  • the diameter of the vessel cannot be made arbitrarily small and at the same time it can be made arbitrarily large in height.
  • the vessels for holding the gel wax are usually made of transparent glass in order to achieve a visually appealing impression of the candle.
  • the glass cannot be deformed arbitrarily at a cost justifiable for such a product, which is why cup-shaped glass vessels are usually used, which, however, do not appear particularly attractive to the viewer of such a candle.
  • inlays For example, sand, shells, small stones, metal parts and other natural materials are used as decorative inlays in such candles.
  • these inlays interfere with the function of the candle when burning or melting, since they have a significantly higher melting point than the gel wax of the candle or are designed so that they burn and often develop unpleasant smells.
  • US-A-4 568 270 discloses a candle having an outer shell and an inner core and a wick, the core having a substantially lower melting point than the shell.
  • the shell is made of paraffin, wax or the like and the core is made of a gel wax, the melting point of the shell being in a temperature range between 139 ° and 145 ° F and that of the core between 110 ° and 125 ° F.
