Die Zeichnung zeigt einen Teelichthalter 2, vgl. insbes. Fig. 1 ― 8, bestehend aus zwei rechteckförmigen, plattenförmigen Zuschnitten A und B, vorzugsweise aus einem Metallblech, insbesondere Stahlblech. Die Zuschnitte A, B weisen am oberen Rand 8, 9 gleich ausgebildete, gestufte (in den Fig. 9 und 10 gestrichelt angedeutet) oder gleich ausgebildete, rechteckförmige, jeweils zum Rand hin offene Ausnehmungen 12, 13 auf. Die Zuschnitte A, B weisen am unteren Rand 10, 11 gleich ausgebildete, rechteckförmige, jeweils zum Rand hin offene Ausnehmungen 14, 15 auf. Die unteren und oberen Ausnehmungen 12, 13, 14, 15 können gleich groß sein. Die unteren Ausnehmungen 14, 15 können kleiner oder größer als die oberen Ausnehmungen sein. Die unteren Ausnehmungen 14, 15 können auch fehlen, was in den Fig. 9 und 10 gestrichelt dargestellt ist.The drawing shows a tealight holder 2, see. esp. Fig. 1 - 8, consisting of two rectangular, plate-shaped blanks A and B, preferably of a metal sheet, in particular sheet steel. The blanks A, B have at the upper edge 8, 9 equally formed, stepped (in the FIGS. 9 and 10 indicated by dashed lines) or identically formed, rectangular, in each case to the edge open recesses 12, 13. The blanks A, B have at the bottom 10, 11 identically formed, rectangular, each open to the edge recesses 14, 15. The lower and upper recesses 12, 13, 14, 15 can be the same size. The lower recesses 14, 15 may be smaller or larger than the upper recesses. The lower recesses 14, 15 may also be missing, resulting in the FIGS. 9 and 10 is shown in dashed lines.

Vom Grund 16 der oberen Ausnehmung 13 des einen Zuschnitts B ist ein nach unten verlaufender Schlitz 17 und vom Grund 18 der unteren Ausnehmung 14 oder beim Fehlen der unteren Ausnehmung 14, was in der Fig. 9 gestrichelt eingezeichnet ist, vom unteren Rand 10 des Zuschnittes A ist ein nach oben verlaufender Schlitz 20 ausgebildet. Die Schlitze 17 und 20 erstrecken sich bis zu einem Punkt, der in der Mitte zwischen dem oberen und unteren Rand 8, 10 und 9, 11 liegt.From the base 16 of the upper recess 13 of a blank B is a downwardly extending slot 17 and the bottom 18 of the lower recess 14 or in the absence of the lower recess 14, which in the Fig. 9 dashed lines, from the lower edge 10 of the blank A, an upwardly extending slot 20 is formed. The slits 17 and 20 extend to a point located midway between the upper and lower edges 8, 10 and 9, 11.

Beide Zuschnitte A, B sind über die Schlitze 17 und 20 zu einem vierarmigen, in der Draufsicht kreuzartigen, den Teelichthalter 2 bildenden Gebilde, vgl. insbesondere Fig. 1 und 5, zusammensteckbar, bei dem die beiden oberen Ausnehmungen 12 und 13 sich zu einer Aufnahme für ein Teelicht 22 ergänzen. Wenn die Tiefe der Ausnehmungen 12 und 13 größer ist als die Höhe des Teelichtes 22, kann der Teelichthalter 2 auch als Stövchen bzw. als Einrichtung zum Erwärmen oder Warmhalten von Speisen verwendet werden.Both blanks A, B are about the slots 17 and 20 to a four-armed, cross-sectional in plan view, the tealight holder 2 forming structures, see. especially Fig. 1 and 5 , zusammensteckbar, in which the two upper recesses 12 and 13 complement each other to a receptacle for a tea light 22. If the depth of the recesses 12 and 13 is greater than the height of the tealight 22, the tealight holder 2 can also be used as a warmer or as a means for heating or keeping food warm.

Die oberen Ausnehmungen 12 und 13 der Teelichthalter 2 weisen gestufte Innenseiten 28, 30 auf, sodass sich die Ausnehmungen stufenweise über wenigstens eine Stufe 32, 34 nach oben erweitern, wie dies die Fig. 1 ― 3, 5 ― 7, 11 ― 13 und 15 ― 17 zeigen und was in den Fig. 9 und 10 strichpunktiert dargestellt ist. Hierdurch ist es möglich, den Teelichthalter 2 für wenigstens zwei im Durchmesser unterschiedliche Teelichter 2 einzusetzen, wie dies die Fig. 1 und 5 zeigen. Es ist auch möglich, die oberen Ausnehmungen 12 und 13 bei einer vereinfachten Ausführung mit senkrechten Innenseiten 28', 30' zu versehen, also ohne Stufen auszubilden, vgl. Fig. 9 und 10.The upper recesses 12 and 13 of the tealight holder 2 have stepped inner sides 28, 30, so that the recesses extend stepwise over at least one step 32, 34 upwards, like the Fig. 1 - 3, 5 - 7, 11 - 13 and 15 - 17 show and what in the FIGS. 9 and 10 dash-dotted lines is shown. This makes it possible to use the tealight holder 2 for at least two different in diameter tealights 2, as the Fig. 1 and 5 demonstrate. It is also possible to provide the upper recesses 12 and 13 in a simplified embodiment with vertical inner sides 28 ', 30', ie without steps, cf. FIGS. 9 and 10 ,

Die unteren Ausnehmungen 14 und 15 können, wie oben bereits erwähnt und in der Zeichnung dargestellt, kleiner als die oberen Ausnehmungen 12 und 13 ausgebildet sein, derart, dass sie im montierten Zustand der beiden Zuschnitte A und B als Aufnahmen für Kerzen oder kleinere Teelichter bei umgekehrter Aufstellung des Teelichthalters verwendbar sind. In diesem Fall kann der erfindungsgemäße Teelichthalter doppelt genutzt werden.The lower recesses 14 and 15 may, as already mentioned above and shown in the drawing, smaller than the upper recesses 12 and 13 may be formed such that they in the mounted state of the two blanks A and B as receptacles for candles or smaller tealights at reverse arrangement of tealight holder can be used. In this case, the tea light holder according to the invention can be used twice.

Die unteren Ausnehmungen 14 und 15 können auch mit den oberen Ausnehmungen 12, 13, wie oben schon erwähnt, gleich ausgebildet sein, derart, dass sie analog wie die oberen Ausnehmungen 12, 13 im zusammengesteckten Zustand der Zuschnitte A und B eine zusätzliche Aufnahme für ein Teelicht, insbesondere für ein Ersatzteelicht bilden. Eine solche Ausbildung ermöglicht darüber hinaus ebenfalls die doppelte Einsetzbarkeit des Teelichthalters.The lower recesses 14 and 15 may also be the same with the upper recesses 12, 13, as already mentioned above, such that they analogous to the upper recesses 12, 13 in the assembled state of the blanks A and B an additional receptacle for a Make tea light, especially for a spare tea light. Moreover, such a design also allows the double use of the tealight holder.

Die Zuschnitte A und B weisen an ihrer unteren Seite 10 und 11 nahe ihrer Seiten 35, 37 bzw. 38, 40 kurze Stapel-Schlitze 42, 44 bzw. 46, 48 auf, die parallel zu den Seiten 35, 37 bzw. 38, 40 verlaufen und deren Abstand zu den Seiten 35, 37, 38, 40 kleiner ist als der Abstand der Ausnehmungen der Zuschnitte A und B zu den Seiten 35, 37, 38, 40 der Zuschnitte. Mit Hilfe dieser unterseitigen, seitlichen Stapel-Schlitze 42, 44, 46, 48, deren Breite gleich der Stärke der Zuschnitte A und B ist, können mehrere Teelichthalter übereinander und versetzt zueinander durch entsprechendes Aufeinanderstecken angeordnet werden, wodurch sich optisch sehr ansprechende dreidimensionale Gebilde verschiedenster Formen, insbesondere Teelichthalter-Pyramiden 50 aus bspw. drei Teelichthaltern 2, 2', 2", wie dies in den Fig. 11 bis 18, insbesondere in den Fig. 11 und 15 dargestellt ist, auf einfache Weise herstellen lassen, die aber auch ebenso einfach wieder in die durch die erfindungsgemäßen Teelichthalter gebildeten Einzelbausteine zerlegt werden können.The blanks A and B have at their lower side 10 and 11 near their sides 35, 37 and 38, 40 short stacking slots 42, 44 and 46, 48 which are parallel to the sides 35, 37 and 38, 40 and whose distance from the sides 35, 37, 38, 40 is smaller than the distance of the recesses of the blanks A and B to the sides 35, 37, 38, 40 of the blanks. With the aid of these lower side, lateral stacking slots 42, 44, 46, 48, the width of which is equal to the thickness of the blanks A and B, a plurality of tealight holders can be stacked one above the other and offset from one another by appropriate juxtaposition which are optically very attractive three-dimensional structures of various shapes, in particular tealight holder pyramids 50 from, for example, three tealight holders 2, 2 ', 2 ", as shown in the 11 to 18 , especially in the Fig. 11 and 15 is shown, can be produced in a simple manner, but also just as easily be broken down again into the individual components formed by the tealight holder according to the invention.

Damit die beiden Zuschnitte A und B im montierten Zustand einen noch stabiler stehenden Teelichthalter ergeben, können Mittel vorgesehen werden, die die Zuschnitte A und B im zusammengesteckten Zustand gegenseitig festlegen, was bspw. durch Stauchen des Materials der Zuschnitte im Bereich der Schlitze 17, 20 und/oder der Stapelschlitze 42, 44, 46 und 48 erfolgen kann.In order for the two blanks A and B to produce a still more stable tea light holder in the mounted state, means can be provided which mutually define the blanks A and B in the assembled state, for example by upsetting the material of the blanks in the area of the slots 17, 20 and / or the stacking slots 42, 44, 46 and 48 can be made.
