Definitions

  • the invention relates to a candle, a burner body for a tealight or granules according to the preamble of claim 1, a new method for producing the candle, the burner body for a tealight or granules according to the preamble of claim 2 and to a corresponding Machine for the method according to the preamble of claim 10.
  • a tealight usually consists of a pot, a loosely inserted into the pot pot and a drawn by the firing body wick.
  • the fuel body has an axial through hole for the wick.
  • the wick is carried by a wick plate and is thus fixed relative to the burner body in its position.
  • the tealight and candle body consists of a fuel mass that has a solid state at a normal ambient temperature and does not completely liquefy until exposed to the heat of the flame.
  • the fuel mass consists of paraffin or wax.
  • a fuel mass containing renewable resources such as stearin, palmitin and / or other vegetable fats. Such renewable resources are difficult to press because of their crystal structure. They are therefore not suitable for the production of pressed tealights according to the known prior art.
  • a common method of making candles is to pull.
  • a wick repeatedly passes through a paraffin bath, whereby a thin paraffin layer builds up concentrically around the wick during each run. This process is repeated until the desired candle diameter is reached.
  • the strand must be redirected again and again to run through the paraffin bath again. The result is a continuous strand, which is then cut to the desired candle length. Also in this method, no uniform lattice structure can develop and the stability of the candles is not high.
  • the deflection of the strand requires on the one hand a high expenditure on equipment and on the other hand a paraffin formulation, which results in an elastically deformable strand. This represents a significant restriction on the choice of raw materials and has a negative impact on costs.
  • the powder or granules is fed to a single-screw extruder in which it is compressed and formed into a strand.
  • a wick is carried along by the extruder shaft designed as a hollow shaft over the entire length of the extruder, which is then incorporated in the compression of the fuel mass with equal. Due to the rotation of the extruder shaft, this wick experiences a swirl effect, which has a negative effect on the burning behavior of the candle.
  • the fuel mass is formed into a strand by a mouthpiece and intermittently cut to the required lengths of a candle.
  • the powder and the granules tend to stick together and thus to clumping, because on the one hand by the temperature sensitivity of the paraffin after spraying different solidification states occur and thus some powder particles or granules are soft and sticky and because on the other the powder particles and the granules during the Solidification form multi-faceted surface structures with many corners and edges, which then become entangled in the solidified state. This reduces the flowability of the powder or granules and hinders the delivery and dosage.
  • the new method and machine eliminates the aforementioned disadvantages of the prior art and enables the production of candles, tealights and granules with more than 30% fuel content from renewable raw materials in the form of stearin, palmitin or other vegetable or animal fats.
  • a strand with a uniform lattice structure, and thus candles are produced with high stability.
  • the granules produced by the new process has a smooth surface and is particularly free-flowing.
  • the new machine for producing a candle, a burner body and granules basically consists of a housing 1 and a driven extrusion screw 2 with a first screw spindles 3 and a second screw spindle 4, wherein both screw spindles 3, 4 are formed in opposite directions and are used.
  • the extrusion screw 2 is constructed modularly over its length and has threads with different from module to module forms and gradients, which are based on the different functions of the screw conveyor 2 in the individual machine units.
  • the machine is formed over its entire length as a cooling section, to which the housing 1 in its wall with circulating cooling channels 5 and the two screw spindles 3, 4 are provided with corresponding axial cooling channels 6.
  • All cooling channels 5, 6 have an external and controllable and controllable cooling device 7 connection, wherein preferably a cooling water is used as the cooling medium.
  • the machine continues to be composed over its length of several segments, wherein viewed in the conveying direction, first, a mixing unit 8, then a homogenization unit 9 and then a compressor and Verpress unit 10 are arranged.
  • the mixing unit 8 is equipped with a hopper 11 for a liquid fuel mass, is connected via a feed line 12 with a liquid tank 13.
  • an adjustable Brennmassendosier sensible 14 is used, the actuating unit is functionally connected to the drive of the extrusion screw 2.
  • the mixing unit 8 further has a filling device 15 for additives, which likewise has an adjustable additive metering device 16 connected to the drive of the extrusion screw 2.
  • the homogenizing unit 9 has a dye filling device 17 with a dye dosing device 18 and a perfume filling device 19 with a perfume dosing device 20.
  • the homogenizing unit 9 in conjunction with the housing 1 is designed so as to form a closed system and escape Volatile fragrance fractions is prevented.
  • Both Dosing devices 18, 20 are in turn made adjustable and are connected via control and regulating devices to the drive of the screw conveyor 2.
  • a replaceable forming die 21 with a selected die 22 is a replaceable forming die 21 with a selected die 22.
  • Fig. 2 shows a same machine which is equipped with a further forming die 24 and a cutting device 25 for the production of granules.
  • this forming die 24 has a Lochmaskendüse 26 and the cutting device 25 one or more, rotating in a plane cutting blade 27, both of which represent a cutting pair.
  • the machine has a forming die 28 with a hole nozzle 29 for producing the strand 23, which is the starting point for the production of tealight bodies.
  • a molding tool 30 Downstream of the molding die 28 is a molding tool 30, which is designed as a turret with a plurality of mold chambers 31 arranged uniformly on a same pitch circle.
  • the common pitch of all mold chambers 31 is located on the axis of the strand and each mold chamber 31 has an ejector device 32, which is preferably operated pneumatically and which is equipped on the injection side with a central mold pin 33 for wicking.
  • a force introduction device not shown, which exerts an actuating force F on the respective ejector device 32 located in the position.
  • the actuating force F is preferably directed counter to the conveying direction of the fuel mass.
  • the extrusion machine is designed for the production of fuel bodies for the tea lights and is therefore equipped with a forming die 34, which has an annular nozzle 35 for producing a strand 23 with a central bore. Downstream of the forming die 34 is a cutting device 36 for cutting the tubular shape Stranges 23 at a selected length. This is followed by a cutting or sawing gate 37, which has a plurality of uniformly spaced cutting or saw blades 38. The distance between all cutting and saw blades 38 corresponds to the height of the burner body for the tealight.
  • the extrusion machine further includes a subsequent separating device 39 for the separated burning body and a mounting device 40 for completing the tealight.
  • a shaped body 41 for receiving and redirecting the strand 23 in an angled by 90 ° direction.
  • a wick feeder 42 which brings an endless wick 43 in the, still pasty properties having strand 23.
  • the endless wick 43 is aligned axially with the angled strand 23.
  • the extrusion machine has the following function: According to a predetermined recipe, heated and liquid paraffin and optionally also additive additives such as stearin, palmitin and / or other vegetable or animal fats, which are also heated and liquid, are continuously introduced into the paraffin hopper 11 and the filler for the additives 15 entered. As a result, all these starting materials enter the mixing unit 8, where they come into contact with the wall of the housing 1 and the extrusion screw 2. In this case, the paraffin and the additives are mixed with each other by the rotational movement of the extrusion screw 2 and conveyed by the special shape of the extrusion screw 2 in the direction of the homogenization unit 9.
  • additive additives such as stearin, palmitin and / or other vegetable or animal fats
  • the temperature of the input fuel mass is lowered continuously, because the fuel mass is permanently removed by contact with the cooled extrusion screw 2 and the cooled wall of the housing 1 heat.
  • This cooling process is further accelerated by the fact that not only the different starting materials but at the same time the still warm and already cooled parts of the fuel mass constantly mixed together. Since the cooling channels 5 extend in the housing 1 and the cooling channels 6 in the extrusion screw 2 over the entire length of the extrusion machine, the continuous cooling acts over the entire period of the mixing and compression process. At the end of the cooling section, the fuel mass has a pasty consistency, which has a uniform lattice structure during the subsequent solidification.
  • fragrances and / or dyes are added as needed and in metered form, which are then mixed with the fuel mass to a homogeneous mass and transported on.
  • the extrusion screw 2 is again designed in a special way in this area. Since the extrusion machine is a self-contained unit, the fragrances can not volatilize.
  • the fuel mass prepared in this way is pressed by the conveying force of the special extrusion screw 2 and against the resistance of the respective shaping nozzle 22, 24 or the hole nozzle 29 or the annular nozzle 35 into a strand 23.
  • the strand 23 is then further processed for the production of granules according to FIG. 2, for the production of fuel bodies for tealights according to FIGS.
  • the strand 23 is additionally pressed for the production of granules by a likewise cooled Lochmaskendüse 26, whereby a plurality of parallel strand threads of smaller diameter arise.
  • the emerging from the many holes of the Lochmaskendüse 26 thread strands are immediately separated by the rotating and fructtourig running cutting blade 27 to short ends. This results in granules in a uniform and cylindrical shape with a small diameter and a small length. Due to the processing, these granules have a completely smooth surface and thus good flowability.
  • the strand 23 is pressed into a molding chamber 31 of a molding tool 30.
  • the mold 30 rotates the mold chamber 31 from the conveying direction the extruding machine and thereby shears the filled and compressed fuel mass from the current strand 23 from.
  • the fuel mass pressed into a fuel body is expelled from the molding chamber 31.
  • the pressing, shearing and ejection of the finished fuel body takes place cyclically for manufacturing reasons and in a formed as a revolver drum mold 30, which is also cooled.
  • the strand 23 is alternatively provided by the use of a cooled annular nozzle 35 equal to a through bore and then separated with a separator 36 to a predetermined length.
  • This severed strand portion is then fed to a cutting or sawing gate 37 where it is split to the length required for the tealights. These burners are then separated and fed to a mounting device 40, where they are then completed with the wick 43 and the receptacle to a tealight.
  • a hole nozzle 29 is inserted into the machine to obtain a full-volume strand 23.
  • This still plastic strand 23 is angled in the conveying movement in a shaped body 41 and combined with an axially aligned with the angled strand 23 and by a wick feeder 42 tapered wick 43. In this case, the strand 23 is cooled down to a solid state, so that a uniform lattice structure can be formed in the fuel mass.
  • a separator 36 separates the strand 23 to the length provided for a candle.
