Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anzündhilfe für feste Brennstoffe wie Holz, Holzkohle, Kohle, etc., insbesondere zur Anwendung in Kachelöfen, Kaminen, Grillgeräten, etc., mit einem wachshaltigen brennbaren Trägermaterial.The invention relates to an igniter for solid fuels such as wood, charcoal, coal, etc., in particular for use in tiled stoves, fireplaces, grills, etc., with a waxy combustible carrier material.

Aus der EP 1 375 632 B1 ist eine Anzündhilfe bekannt. Im Konkreten handelt es sich dort um eine Anzündhilfe, bei der das Trägermaterial, im Konkreten naturbelassene Holzwolle, mit Paraffin getränkt Ist. Genauer gesagt besteht das Trägermaterial aus sogenannten Holzwolle-Seilabschnitten, bei denen die Paraffindichte im Innern der Anzündhilfe höher ist als im äußeren Bereich.From the EP 1 375 632 B1 is known a kindling. In concrete terms, it is a kind of priming aid in which the carrier material, in the concrete natural wood wool, is impregnated with paraffin. More specifically, the carrier material consists of so-called wood wool rope sections, in which the paraffin density inside the igniter is higher than in the outer region.

Die bekannte Anzündhilfe ist in vielerlei Hinsicht problematisch. Zum einen ist das Trägermaterial - durch und durch - mit Paraffin getränkt, wodurch sich ein ganz erheblicher Paraffinanteil ergibt. Dieser hohe Paraffinanteil erhöht nicht nur das Transportgewicht der bekannten Anzündhilfe, sondern bewirkt obendrein erhebliche Herstellkosten aufgrund des recht hohen Paraffingehalts.The known ignition aid is problematic in many ways. On the one hand, the carrier material - through and through - soaked in paraffin, resulting in a very significant paraffin content. This high paraffin content not only increases the transport weight of the known ignition aid, but also causes considerable production costs due to the rather high paraffin content.

Darüber hinaus bewirkt die höhere Paraffindichte im Innern der Anzündhilfe erhebliche Probleme beim Abbrand, nämlich dahingehend, dass sich mit der bekannten Anzündhilfe nur bedingt ein lodernder Effekt erzielen lässt, nämlich aufgrund der hohen Verdlchtung im Inneren. Wenngleich ein hoher Paraffinanteil vorliegt, hat es sich in der Praxis erwiesen, dass die hohe Paraffindichte im Inneren einem schnellen Entfachen des Feuers entgegenwirkt.In addition, the higher paraffin inside the igniter causes significant problems during burnup, namely to the effect that can be achieved only partially a flaming effect with the known ignition, namely due to the high Verdi in the interior. Although a high proportion of paraffin is present, it has been proven in practice that the high paraffin density inside counteracts a rapid ignition of the fire.

Aus der DE 196 28 827 sind Anzünder für feste Brennstoffe bekannt, die mit einem leicht entflammbaren Kohlenwasserstoff beschichtet sind. Die Kohlenwasserstoffe enthalten neben Pflanzenöl Aliphate mit C14 bis C19, also Paraffine. Das Trägermaterial liegt in Form von Pressplatten vor.From the DE 196 28 827 are solid fuel igniters coated with a highly flammable hydrocarbon. The hydrocarbons contain in addition to vegetable oil aliphates with C14 to C19, so paraffins. The carrier material is in the form of press plates.

Aus der DE 201 15 274 U1 sind Kamin- und Grillanzünder bekannt, die einen Wellpapstreifen als Trägermaterial enthalten. Der Wellpapstreifen trägt eine Beschichtung aus Wachs.From the DE 201 15 274 U1 Fireplace and Grillanzünder are known which contain a corrugated cardboard as a carrier material. The corrugated cardboard has a coating of wax.

Die US 3,395,003 A offenbart eine Anzündhilfe in Form eines Papierblattes, welches komplett mit einer Paraffinschicht überzogen ist.The US 3,395,003 A discloses a firelighter in the form of a paper sheet which is completely coated with a paraffin layer.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt nun die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Anzündhilfe der gattungsbildenden Art derart auszugestalten und weiterzubilden, dass sie sich bei geringstmöglichen Materialkosten zum schnellen und dabei sicheren Entfachen eines Feuers im Kachelofen, Kamin, Grillgerät, etc. eignet.The present invention is based on the object, an igniter of the generic type to design and further develop that it is at the lowest possible material costs for fast and safe firing a fire in a tiled stove, fireplace, grill, etc.

Erfindungsgemäß ist die voranstehende Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Danach ist das Trägermaterial nicht etwa mit Wachs getränkt, sondern lediglich mit Wachs, vorzugsweise mit Paraffin, beschichtet. Mit anderen Worten ist die Oberfläche des Trägermaterials mit Wachs, vorzugsweise mit Paraffin, versehen, wodurch sich ein ganz besonderer Brenneffekt ergibt.According to the invention the above object is solved by the features of claim 1. Thereafter, the support material is not soaked with wax, but only with wax, preferably coated with paraffin. In other words, the surface of the carrier material with wax, preferably with paraffin, provided, resulting in a very special burning effect.

Das Trägermaterial besteht aus Holzwolle oder Holzspänen. Es ist als ein seilartiges Material ausgeführt und dabei verdrillt bzw. getwistet. Es ist möglich, beim Herstellprozess der Anzündhilfe Fasern von Holzwolle gegeneinander zu verdrehen, ähnlich wie bei der Herstellung eines Seils. Im verdrillten Zustand lässt sich das Ganze mit Paraffin, besprühen, so dass dadurch obendrein ein gewisser Halt der verdrillten Fasern der Holzwolle erreicht wird.The carrier material consists of wood wool or wood shavings. It is designed as a rope-like material and thereby twisted or twisted. It is possible to twist fibers of wood wool against each other during the manufacturing process of the igniter, similar to the production of a rope. In the twisted state, the whole thing can be sprayed with paraffin, so that on top of that a certain hold of the twisted fibers of the wood wool is achieved.

In ganz besonders vorteilhafter Weise ist das Trägermaterial gleichmäßig über dessen Oberfläche hinweg mit Wachs, vorzugsweise mit Paraffin, beschichtet, wobei das Wachs, vorzugsweise Paraffin - wie zuvor ausgeführt - lediglich an der Oberfläche des Trägermaterials vorgesehen bzw. ausgebildet ist.In a particularly advantageous manner, the support material is evenly coated over its surface with wax, preferably with paraffin, wherein the wax, preferably paraffin - as previously stated - is provided or formed only on the surface of the support material.

Im Konkreten ist es von Vorteil, wenn das Trägermaterial mit dem Wachs vorzugsweise mit Paraffin, besprüht ist. Bei dem Wachs kann es sich um beliebiges brennbares Wachs, vorzugsweise Paraffin, handeln, wobei darauf zu achten ist, dass es einem Reinheitsgrad entspricht, wie er von der Lebensmittelgesetzgebung verlangt wird. Außerdem sollte das Wachs, im lagernden Zustand wie auch beim Verbrennen der Anzündhilfe, geruchsneutral sein. Insoweit ist es von Vorteil, als Wachs ein Paraffin mit entsprechenden Merkmalen zu verwenden.Concretely, it is advantageous if the carrier material with the wax, preferably with paraffin, is sprayed. The wax may be any combustible wax, preferably paraffin, care being taken that it corresponds to a degree of purity as required by food legislation is required. In addition, the wax should be odorless in the stored condition as well as when burning the igniter. In that regard, it is advantageous to use as wax a paraffin with corresponding characteristics.

Das Trägermaterial ist aus Holzwolle bzw. Holzspänen.The carrier material is made of wood wool or wood chips.

In Bezug auf die Wirksamkeit bzw. Effizienz der Anzündhilfe ist es von weiterem Vorteil, wenn das Trägermaterial eine möglichst große Oberfläche aufweist. Dabei ist es wiederum von Vorteil, wenn das Trägermaterial eine irreguläre Oberfläche und/oder Gestalt hat.With regard to the effectiveness or efficiency of the ignition aid, it is of further advantage if the carrier material has the largest possible surface area. It is again advantageous if the carrier material has an irregular surface and / or shape.

Das Trägermaterial kann einen mittleren Durchmesser von etwa 1 cm bis 3 cm, vorzugsweise etwa 2 cm, haben. Wenngleich ein größerer Durchmesser mehr zum Anzünden geeignetes Material bedeutet, ist bei dickerem seilartigem Material die Herstellung und auch die Handhabung erschwert. Material im Bereich von 2 cm Durchmesser hat sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen.The carrier material may have an average diameter of about 1 cm to 3 cm, preferably about 2 cm. Although a larger diameter means more material suitable for lighting, manufacturing and handling is more difficult with thicker rope-like material. Material in the range of 2 cm in diameter has proved to be advantageous.

Des Weiteren ist es von Vorteil, wenn das seilartige Trägermaterial in gut handhabbaren Portionen bereitgestellt wird. Dazu bietet es sich an, dass das seilartige Trägermaterial auf eine Länge von 3 cm bis 10 cm abgelängt bzw. portioniert wird, um nämlich dessen Handhabung und Verwendung zu erleichtern.Furthermore, it is advantageous if the rope-like carrier material is provided in easy-to-handle portions. For this purpose, it is advisable that the rope-like carrier material is cut to length of 3 cm to 10 cm or portioned, namely to facilitate its handling and use.

In Bezug auf die Bereitstellung der Anzündhilfe ist es denkbar, diese im verdrillten und portionierten Zustand entsprechend den voranstehenden Ausführungen anzubieten. Ebenso ist es denkbar, längere Seilabschnitte bereitzustellen, die durch mechanische Beeinflussung irregulär geformt und gegebenenfalls verknäult sind. So lassen sich auch mehrere Knäuels abgelängter Seilabschnitte miteinander kombinieren, wobei dies lediglich fakultativ in Frage kommt.With regard to the provision of the ignition aid, it is conceivable to offer these in the twisted and portioned state according to the above statements. Likewise, it is conceivable to provide longer cable sections which are irregularly shaped by mechanical interference and possibly entangled. In this way, several bobbins of cut-to-length cable sections can be combined with one another, whereby this is only optional.

In erfindungsgemäßer Weise wird darüber hinaus ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Anzündhilfe angegeben, wonach das Trägermaterial zu einem seilartigen Gebilde verdrillt und mit flüssigem Wachs, insbesondere mit Paraffin, besprüht wird.In accordance with the invention, moreover, a process for the production of an ignition aid is specified, according to which the carrier material is twisted into a rope-like structure and sprayed with liquid wax, in particular with paraffin.

Wie bereits zuvor in Bezug auf die Anzündhilfe ausgeführt, handelt es sich in ganz besonders vorteilhafter Weise bei dem seilartigen Trägermaterial um ein Material aus Holzwolle, gegebenenfalls gemischt mit Holzspänen, wobei die seilartige Ausgestaltung durch Verdrillen bzw. Twisten erreicht wird. Letztendlich werden die Fasern der Holzwolle ähnlich der Herstellung eines Seils gegeneinander verdreht, wobei durch das mechanische Ineinandergreifen bereits ein gewisser Halt zwischen den Fasern erzeugt wird.As already stated above with regard to the ignition aid, the cable-like carrier material is in a particularly advantageous manner a material made of wood wool, possibly mixed with wood chips, the cable-like configuration being achieved by twisting or twisting. Ultimately, the fibers of the wood wool are twisted against each other similar to the production of a rope, whereby the mechanical interlocking already creates a certain hold between the fibers.

In ganz besonders vorteilhafter Weise wird das seilartige Trägermaterial noch während oder unmittelbar nach dem Verdrillen - an dessen Oberfläche - besprüht, wodurch die Festigkeit des verdrillten Trägermaterials begünstigt wird. Das mit Wachs besprühte Trägermaterial wird vorzugsweise unmittelbar nach dem Besprühen getrocknet, wobei dies durch ein Gebläse, gegebenenfalls unter Temperatureinwirkung, erfolgen kann. Jedenfalls verfestigt das Wachs an der Oberfläche des Trägermaterials, wodurch das Wachs zur Festigkeit des verdrillten Trägermaterials in erheblichem Maße beiträgt.In a particularly advantageous manner, the rope-like carrier material is sprayed during or immediately after the twisting - at the surface - whereby the strength of the twisted carrier material is favored. The wax-sprayed carrier material is preferably dried immediately after spraying, which can be done by a fan, optionally under the influence of temperature. In any case, the wax solidifies on the surface of the carrier material, whereby the wax contributes to the strength of the twisted carrier material to a considerable extent.

Anschließend wird das mit Wachs beschichtete Trägermaterial in vorgebbaren Längen geschnitten und entsprechend portioniert. Ebenso ist es möglich, das portionierte Trägermaterial zumindest geringfügig zu knäulen bzw. zu verformen, wodurch sich die Oberfläche des Trägermaterials zumindest geringfügig verformen lässt.Subsequently, the wax-coated carrier material is cut into predeterminable lengths and portioned accordingly. Likewise, it is possible to at least slightly curl or deform the portioned carrier material, as a result of which the surface of the carrier material can be at least slightly deformed.

Es gibt nun verschiedene Möglichkeiten, die Lehre der vorliegenden Erfindung in vorteilhafter Weise auszugestalten und weiterzubilden. Dazu ist einerseits auf die dem Patentanspruch 1 nachgeordneten Patentansprüche und andererseits auf die nachfolgende Erläuterung eines bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung zu verweisen.
