Abstract

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. The wick holder also provides capillary fins by which liquified fuel is transported from said support plate to said flame, said wick holder further engages 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.

Claims (21)

1. A candle comprising a meltable solid fuel element, a melting plate upon which said fuel element rests, and a wick holder comprising a consumable wick and capillary heat conductive fins positioned so as to collect heat from a flame upon said wick and to conduct such heat to said fuel element and to said melting plate, said wick holder engaging said meltable solid fuel element, with said heat conductive fins providing a capillary path for movement of fuel to the flame.
2. The candle of claim 1, wherein said fuel element further comprises one or more volatile active materials.
3. The candle of claim 2, wherein said wick holder comprises at least two heat conductive capillary heat fins which are heated by said flame, conduct heat to the fuel element whereby additional fuel is liquified, and return such liquified fuel to the flame by capillary action for consumption thereof, thereby creating a non-consumable wick.
4. The candle of claim 3, wherein said meltable solid fuel element comprises a replaceable fuel element cooperatively engaging said heat conductive melting plate and wick holder.
5. The candle of claim 4, wherein the replaceable fuel element further comprises a starter bump on the top surface thereof, in close proximity to said consumable wick, for ease of lighting said wick.
6. A candle as set forth in Claim 3, wherein said melting plate further com-prises a raised heat conductive portion by which heat is conducted from a flame upon said wick to said melting plate and to said solid fuel element, whereby a pool of heated liquid fuel is created, said melting plate being configured to cause the flow of said heated liquid fuel toward said wick holder.
7. The melting plate candle of claim 1, wherein said wick holder is configured so as to engage a capillary pedestal on said melting plate.
8. The melting plate candle of claim 1, wherein said wick holder further comprises heat conductive members configured so as to transfer heat from said heat conductive fins to said solid fuel element.
9. A candle comprising a meltable solid fuel, a support plate upon which said fuel rests, and a pedestal located on said support plate which cooperatively engages the base portion of a wick holder comprising a wick, said wick holder conducting heat from a flame upon said wick to said solid fuel and said support plate by means of heat fins which contact said flame, said fins being insulated so as to inhibit heat loss between said flame and said solid fuel, and said fins having an internal space therein so as to create capillary flow of melted fuel to the tips thereof in proximity to said flame.
10. The candle of claim 9, wherein said wick holder comprises a plurality of heat conductive fins.
11. The candle of claim 10, wherein said meltable solid fuel comprises a replaceable fuel element cooperatively engaging said support plate, pedestal, wick holder, and heat conductive fins.
12. The candle of Claim 10, wherein said support plate further comprises a heat conductive portion by which heat is conducted from a flame upon said wick to said solid fuel element, whereby a pool of heated liquid fuel is created, said support plate being configured to cause the flow of said heated liquid fuel toward said wick holder.
13. The candle of claim 9, wherein said support plate is treated so as to be self cleaning.
14. A candle consisting of a fuel holder comprising a heat conductive surface shaped to hold and melt a solid fuel material included in a replaceable solid fuel element further comprising a wick holder including a consumable wick and capillary heat fins, and to form a pool of liquid fuel, said surface further comprising a capillary pedestal which lockingly engages said wick holder, wherein said capillary heat fins are configured so as to be in close proximity to a flame on said wick and to conduct heat from said flame to said fuel element, the surfaces of said fins being insulated so as to prevent loss of heat, said capillary fins being capable of providing flow of liquified fuel up said fins to a point where said liquified fuel is vaporized, said vaporized fuel then exiting said fins through exit openings in proximity to said flame, whereby said fuel is consumed.
15. The candle of claim 14, wherein said replaceable fuel element is configured to cooperatively engage said wick holder.
16 The candle of claim 14, wherein said replaceable fuel element further comprises one or more volatile active materials.
17 The candle of claim 14, wherein the replaceable fuel element further comprises a starter bump on the top surface thereof, in close proximity but not in contact with said consumable wick for ease of lighting said wick.
18 The candle of Claim 15, wherein said heat conductive surface further comprises raised heat conductive lobes.
19. The candle of claim 14, wherein said heat conductive surface is treated so as to be self cleaning.
20. A replaceable fuel element for a melting plate candle, said fuel element comprising a solid fuel material cooperatively engaging a wick holder comprising a consumable wick, said wick holder configured so as to lockingly engage a capillary pedestal on said melting plate candle, and further comprising capillary heat fins which conduct heat from said flame to said fuel element by means of branches which extend outward from said fins into said fuel element.
21. The fuel element of claim 20, further comprising a volatile material.
