Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a burning scent that generates fragrance upon ignition, and more particularly to a burning scent in which a plurality of burning scents having different scents are connected in succession so that different scents can be enjoyed in sequence and the burning time can be adjusted.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventional burning incense is generally stick-shaped, in other words, incense-shaped. Therefore, when burning incense, for example, if it is laid on a dish, the entire incense touches the plate, and the heat may be lost and disappear. Therefore, in the past, ignition was performed by sticking in ash, that is, standing in the ash, laying on the ash, or standing in a special leaning tool.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, stick-shaped burning incense could not be burned without ash or leaning tools, and if it was burned in a leaning state easily in time, accidents such as falling down and burning the floor were likely to occur. Furthermore, some lovers of burning incense wanted to enjoy different incenses one after another, but in the conventional shape, after burning one burning incense or extinguishing the fire I had no choice but to ignite the next incense and enjoy different scents in succession.

Incidentally, in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 60-246312 and Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 60-152638, a stick-shaped or plate-shaped burning aroma that produces different odors, and a conical or spiral burning aroma are disclosed. ing. However, in the production of incense, water is added to perfume powder, dye, and fragrance, and all are mixed and kneaded to form an incense material paste, which is extruded by an extruder to form a stick-shaped incense. It is difficult to connect and solidify. Further, in order to extrude different burning incenses in a connected state, it is necessary to extrude a certain incense material paste and then extrude the next incense material paste without any break, which is technically extremely difficult.

Further, in the case of burning one incense for a long time and burning the next incense for a short time, it has conventionally been necessary to cut the incense into desired lengths. Further, when the burning aroma was conical, the amount of burning was gradually increased, and if the scent was too strong, it might even cause disgust. The purpose of the present invention is to make it easy to manufacture, and to select the fragrance, adjust the burning time,
An object of the present invention is to provide a burning scent capable of easily adjusting the scent and further preparing.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The above-mentioned object of the present invention is to form an overall shape of a burning incense that produces an aroma by ignition, form a supporting portion for holding the whole in a self-supporting manner at a desired position, and connect both ends so that they can transfer fire. It is achieved by the incense which is characterized by being formed into a shape that allows it.

[0007]

[Action]

 According to the burning incense having the above-mentioned structure, when the burning incense is placed on the table for burning the burning incense, the supporting section supports the supporting body so that it does not fall down and ash for standing up and a leaning tool are unnecessary. In addition, since both ends are formed in a shape that can be connected in a fire transferable manner, the ends of a plurality of burning incense can be connected to continuously burn from the first burning incense to the second burning incense. Adjustment and change of fragrance can be easily performed. Although the incense is elongated, it is preferably curved or bent rather than linear, and the curved or bent portion can be used as the support portion. The support may make surface contact with the burning scent, preferably line contact, and more preferably point contact.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the incense to which the present invention is applied will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing the basic shape and connection of the incense, FIG. 2 is a perspective view, FIGS. 3 to 5 are explanatory views showing the manufacturing process, and FIGS. 7 to 8 are perspective views showing various shapes of the incense. 9 and 10 are enlarged cross-sectional views of the main part showing the end shape. The basic shape of the incense burner 1 is formed in an S shape as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, and its cross section is formed in a quadrangle or a rectangle. The two curved portions P correspond to the supporting portion according to the present invention, and since the cross section of the incense stick 1 is quadrangular or rectangular, the surface of the supporting portion P is also flat. Therefore, when the incense burner 1 is placed alone on the incense burner stand 2 such as a plate, as shown in the left side of FIG. 1, the incense burner stand 2 uses the flat support surface P and one end 1a as fulcrums. Can be placed on top.

It should be noted here that since the incense stick 1 is formed into an S-shape instead of a linear stick, the contact area between the supporting portion P and the incense stand 2 is not only the one end 1a. It is extremely small, so to speak, it is a line contact. Therefore, even if the end portion 1a is ignited, the heat conduction to the burning scent base 2 is small, in other words, the heat taken by the burning scent base 2 is small, and the end portion 1a to the support portion P and the other end portion. It is possible to reliably continue burning toward 1b without disappearing on the way. It should be noted that, if the burning incense 1 is continued to be burned, it changes to ash, but it does not immediately collapse, and the original shape is basically maintained, as is clear from the example of the incense.

The single incense burner 1 is burned as described above. However, the feature of the present invention is that the incense burner 1 is continuously connected to change the burning time or enjoy different scents. In this case, as shown in FIG. 1, the end portion 1a of the second burning incense 1 is placed on the other end portion 1b of the first burning incense 1 and connected. In addition, in FIG. 1, the end portion 1a of the left incense stick 1 is illustrated as being lifted up from the burning head 2, but this is for convenience of illustration, and whether or not to lift up is determined by the support portion P. It depends on the formation position and the weight applied to the end 1b. These examples will be described later with reference to FIG. 6 and subsequent figures.

When a plurality of burning incense 1 are connected as shown by the solid line in FIG. 1, when the left burning incense 1, that is, the end 1b of the first burning incense 1 is burned, the fire is the next burning incense 1, that is, the second burning incense. Move to the end 1a. Therefore, the second burning incense 1 can be continuously burned after the first burning incense 1, and the burning time is adjusted by the number of connected burning incense 1. That is, if the same-shaped burning incense 1 is connected, the burning time of the burning incense 1 is adjusted by the number of burning incense 1. On the other hand, if the second burning incense 1 connected to the first burning incense 1 is made different, a different scent occurs when the fire is transferred to the second burning incense 1, and in this case, a different scent is generated. You can continue to enjoy. Therefore, by changing the number of connections of the incense burner 1, the burning time can be adjusted freely, and by connecting different incense burners 1 according to preference, different scents can be sequentially generated.

Next, manufacturing of the incense stick 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 5. The incense stick 1 is formed in the S-shape as described above, and since the ends are connected and the fire is transferred, it is necessary to have good connectivity, in other words, good contact between the ends. From this point of view, conventional manufacturing by an extruder is inappropriate. Therefore, the incense burner 1 according to the present invention is manufactured by a tableting machine. A tableting machine is one in which the conical grain flavor is put into a mold and compressed to solidify it into a desired shape. Hereinafter, the structure of the tableting machine 11 will be described with reference to the S-shaped burning incense 1. A mold 13 having an S-shaped groove 12 formed therein, a base 14 that moves up and down in the mold 13, and a compression member 15. It is composed of When manufacturing the incense burner 1, the base 14 is fixed at a predetermined height position in the groove 12 and a granular flavor is put therein as shown by A in FIG. Next, the compression member 15 is inserted from above the groove 12 to compress the granular flavor shown by A. Then, after solidifying, the base 14 is pushed upward as shown in FIG. 5 to take out the S-shaped solidified fragrance, that is, the incense stick 1.

In a conventional extruder or punching machine, a material such as perfume powder is extruded or punched out in a semi-rounded state, that is, in a kneaded state, and then dried to produce a burning incense. Therefore, it may be deformed when it is dried, and it is difficult to make it into a shape that can stand upright on the burning pedestal 2 as shown in this embodiment. In addition, in manufacturing with an extruder, it is extremely difficult to form not only the S-shape but also various shapes described later. However, according to the tableting machine 11, the shape of the incense stick 1 can be easily and accurately formed into a desired shape by changing the groove 12.

Next, another shape of the incense stick will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8. It should be noted that, for convenience of description, the incense described below is given a different number from the incense 1 shown in FIG. The incense stick 21 shown in FIG. 6 has a smaller radius of curvature than the incense stick 1 described with reference to FIG. Therefore, the contact area between the supporting portion P and the firing table (not shown) is small, and heat conduction can be reduced. Both ends 21a and 21b are both oriented in a direction close to vertical when placed as shown in FIG. 6, so when connecting a plurality of incense sticks 21 as shown in FIG. 2, the weight of the upper incense stick 21 is increased. Is applied to the end portion 21b of the lower burning incense 21 from directly above, and the connectivity between the two is improved.

The incense stick 31 shown in FIG. 7 has support parts P formed at four locations. When only one incense stick 31 is used to stand, the incense stick 31 does not contact the incense stand and is supported by two support parts P. Can stand. Also, a plurality of incense sticks 31 can be connected in the same manner as described above by utilizing both ends 31a and 31b.

The incense burner 41 shown in FIG. 8 is formed in a shape close to a long plate, although the cross section is formed in a quadrangle or a rectangle. A wedge-shaped support portion P such as a protrusion is formed on one side surface of the incense stick 41 at predetermined intervals. In the structure shown in this example, the stability when the incense stick 41 is placed on the incense stand is significantly improved. Further, since the main body of the incense stick 41 does not come into contact with the incense stand by the support portion P, heat is not taken away while the incense stick 41 is being heated, and a plurality of incense sticks 41 can be stably connected as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. . The support P shown in this example can be easily formed by a tableting machine or an extrusion device.

Next, the shape of the end portion will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10. Although the end shape described below can be applied to any of the above-mentioned incense sticks 1, 21, 31, 41, it will be described with reference to the end portions 1a, 1b of the incense stick 1. FIG. 9 shows that the end portions 1a and 1b are formed on a slanted surface. According to this shape, even if one of the incense sticks 1 is displaced as shown by an imaginary line in FIG. They will come into contact with each other, and the transfer of fire will be surely performed. The end portion of the incense stick 41 shown in FIG. 8 is also formed on the slope. Further, in order to further improve the contact between both ends of the incense burner 1, as shown in FIG. 10, the convex portion of the end portion 1a is formed, and the concave portion is formed at the end portion 1b so that they are substantially fitted to each other. It may be configured. In this case, the connectivity of the plurality of the incense sticks 1 is further improved, so that the fire transfer is improved, and moreover, the bonded state is more than the friction contact, so that the stability in the standing state is also improved.

As described above, the burning incense to which the present invention is applied can be burned without using ash or a special leaning tool, and in addition, a plurality of burning incense can be continuously burned. Moreover, since the incense itself is formed in a long shape with a predetermined cross-sectional area, the amount of the incense is always constant, and there is almost no variation in the amount of scent. As for the production, there are various effects such that the production can be carried out easily by using a tableting machine, and thus at low cost. Further, the shape of the incense is a long incense in which the support portion is integrally formed, and is not limited to the S-shape or the corrugated shape. Further, although the supporting portion P in each of the above-described examples is in line contact with the burning incense stand to support it in a line, it is more preferable if it has a structure in which it is point-contacted in point contact with the incense stand in order to support the line. .

[0019]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, the incense stick according to the present invention is formed in a longitudinal shape with a predetermined cross-sectional area and has a support portion for holding it in a desired position independently. When it is placed on the top, it does not fall because it is self-supported by the supporting part, and ash for standing and a leaning tool are unnecessary. In addition, the amount of burning is always constant, and fluctuations in the fragrance amount can be reduced. Furthermore, since both ends are formed in a shape that can be connected in a fire transferable manner, by connecting the ends of a plurality of burning incense, it is possible to continuously burn from the first burning incense to the second burning incense. Adjustment and change of fragrance can be easily performed.
