Religious faith is the settling place of human spirit and soul. No matter believing in what religion, it is common to burn candles for worship or sacrificing the gods and ancestors. Moreover, people usually burn delicate candles at home to enhance savor of lives.
Prior art candles can be categorized into two types. The first type of candle is the solid candle bar, which is formed by arranging a cotton wick at the center of a solid wax bar so that the candle can be lighted and burned through the help of the cotton wick. However, candle drops may be easily generated when the candle is burned, resulting in waste of wax material. Also, black smoke generated when burning the cotton wick may result in air pollution. The other type of candle is the liquid candle, which is formed by placing liquid wax in a vessel and arranging a cotton wick in the liquid wax. Although candle drops will not be generated, black smoke generated when burning the cotton wick can not be avoided.
The present invention aims to provide a candle device for burning a candle without a cotton wick to resolve the above problems.
