Remote controllable auto-ignition candle and control system thereof

A remote controllable auto-ignition candle, comprising:

• a wick portion including at least two wicks spaced apart from each other and two or more electrodes electrically connected to lower ends of the respective wicks,
• wherein,
• each of the at least two wicks includes a conductive member made of a conductive material including a conductive carbon material, a conductive polymer, or a mixture thereof, and a combustible non-conductive member,
• the conductive member is coupled to the combustible non-conductive member,
• the conductive member and the combustible non-conductive member are configured such that the at least two wicks are ignited directly by a discharge that occurs between the at least two wicks and the discharge is generated at one end in the longitudinal direction of the at least two wicks by a remote control of an electric stimulus applied to the electrodes without a separate fuel or an igniter between the wicks,
• the non-conductive member is configured to form a heat transfer barrier that prevents heat transfer from the conductive member to a fuel, and to serve as a support for physically supporting the conductive member,
• the conductive member has a flat surface on which the discharge occurs,
• the conductive member has a plate shape, a strip shape, a flat plate strip shape, a wire shape, a bar shape, or a hollow pillar shape,
• the combustible non-conductive member has a shape corresponding to the conductive member and has a length equal to or less than the length of the conductive member, and
• the combustible non-conductive member is made of combustible material and does not generate toxic substances to a human body during combustion;
• a first communication unit communicating with a user terminal in a wired or wireless manner;
• a control unit controlling an ignition state of the wick portion according to a control signal received through the first communication unit;
• and
• an ignition means applying a discharge voltage to the different electrodes electrically connected to the lower ends of the respective wicks so that the wicks are ignited according to a control of the control unit,
• wherein
• if the number of the at least two wicks is an even number, wicks connected to electrodes having different polarities are positioned to face each other while being adjacent to each other, and if the number of the at least two wicks is an odd number, wicks connected to electrodes having different polarities are positioned to face each other while being adjacent to each other, and one wick without a pair is not connected to an electrode and is positioned between a pair of wicks connected to electrodes, or a common electrode is connected to one wick and an electrode having polarity different from that of the common electrode is connected to another at least one other wick adjacent to the one wick, such that the ignition means applies a voltage to generate a discharge to the electrode to which the common electrode is connected.
