150 is configured having a plurality of voids 111 formed therein for positioning of a plurality of wicks 110 that are further held in place by the wick carriers 104 the wick carriers 104 are generally formed having an aperture 114 therein for positioning of the wick 110 as illustrated in fig3 the wick carriers 114 in conjunction with the wick sustainer 102 ensure that a predetermined spacing of the wicks 110 is preserved as well as the spacing between the wicks 110 and a wall of the container not shown when the molded wax ring 150 has melted the wax ring 150 may be formed according to many different methods such as through molding extruding or compressing the wax into the desired shape more particularly the wax ring 150 may be formed by simply pouring molten wax into a mold matching the shape of the wick sustainer 102 the plurality of voids 111 for the placement of the wicks 110 may be drilled subsequent to the molding or they may be formed during the molding process using pins not shown subsequent to molding the wax ring 150 the wicks 110 and the sustainer 102 would be assembled to form the wick assembly 100 in an alternative method the wax ring 150 may be formed by extruding wax through a die of a similar shape to the wick sustainer 102 the wax would be cut to the desired thickness similar to the molding process the plurality of voids 111 may be drilled subsequent to the extrusion process and before assembly of the final wick assembly 100 in yet another alternative method prilled wax may be compressed into a mold having a similar shape to.
