ABSTRACT:
A disposable, adjustable flame, canned fuel apparatus comprises a container having closed sides and bottom and having an open top; a fuel absorbent pad disposed in upper regions of the container relatively adjacent to its open top; a flammable liquid disposed in the container; an elongate wick disposed in the container and having an upper end region in fluid communication with the pad and having a lower end region extending into lower regions of the container and into the flammable liquid contained therein; and an adjustable flame assembly attached across the top of the container. Such assembly includes a first member non-rotatably attached to the container and a second member that is mounted for rotational movement relative to the first member or the first member mounted for rotational movement relative to the second member and a second member that is non-rotatably attached to the container or both first and second members mounted to the container for rotational movement relative to each other, the first member having a plurality of apertures opening to an upper surface of the fuel absorbent pad and the second member having a like number of similar apertures and being rotatable between a first rotational position relative to the first member in which the apertures in the first member are covered by the second member and a second rotational position in which the apertures in the first member are at least substantially uncovered for maximum burning of fuel in the container. In rotational positions intermediate the first and second positions, the apertures in the first member are partially closed. The pad is formed of a mixture of fiberglass and cotton, the cotton being present in an amount of between about fifteen percent and about eighty-five percent. A seal is provided for retaining the flammable fluid in the container until use.
