CANDLE ASSEMBLY INCLUDING A FUEL ELEMENT WITH A LOCATING RECESS AND A MELTING PLATE WITH A LOCATING PROTRUSION

摘要

A melting plate candle assembly includes a melting plate with a locating protrusion, which engages a fuel element in a predefined orientation when in a preferred operative position. In one operative position, the bottom surface of the fuel element is disposed on the melting plate, and a capillary space is formed between a capillary pedestal on the melting plate and a capillary recess in the bottom surface of the fuel element. The locating protrusion provides positive indication that the fuel element is properly disposed in the operative position.
