PCT No. PCT/JP97/03885 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 29, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 29, 1998 PCT Filed Oct. 27, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO98/19109 PCT Pub. Date May 7, 1998In a combustion appliance provided with a combustion wick for sucking up a liquid fuel by the utilization of capillarity and burning it, functions for automatically extinguishing the fire after the combustion has been carried out for a predetermined length of time are constituted with a simple mechanism. The combustion wick (6), which comprises a sucking section for sucking up a liquid fuel by the utilization of capillarity and a burning section for burning the sucked-up liquid fuel, is divided at an intermediate position into a burning section side subdivision (6A) and a sucking section side subdivision (6B). The combustion wick (6) is located such that at least either one of the subdivisions can be moved in a direction that comes into contact with the other and in a direction that separates from the other. The fuel is fed from the sucking section side subdivision (6B) to the burning section side subdivision (6A) when they are brought into contact with each other. The feeding of the fuel is blocked when the subdivisions are separated from each other, and a combustion time is thereby limited.
