Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention


The present invention relates generally Portable censer bag shaped like a conventional suitcase with handle, where the censer elements are housed inside the said bag.


2. Description of the Related Art


Incense burners are well known and have been in use for many years. Burners of various designs are appropriate for different applications ranging from religious services to a device for killing flying insects and/or dispensing a pleasant aroma.


For example, a U.S. Pat. No. 3,058,178 of Campagna relates to a portable incense burner that is particularly well suited for use in religious ceremonies. Early burners placed burning charcoals in a portable receptacle provided with holes in the wall to permit air to pass to the charcoal to keep it burning and to permit the escape of incensed fumes. Incense is placed over the burning coal to produce the fumes. In order to overcome a problem associated with receptacles becoming very hot on the outer surface, and the inconvenience of refilling at an inconvenient time. Campagna teaches the use of an electrical socket and a thermostat to control the heat applied to the incense.


A more recent patent Rogers, U.S. Pat. No. 4,198,375 discloses an incense burner consisting of an exterior receptacle fitted with an ash collecting basket and supporting a cigarette lighter within the receptacle together with an axially disposed spindle. A disc having a plurality of circumferentially disposed holes dimensioned to accept sticks of incense is supplied on the spindle above the receptacle and a wire meshed cap is fitted over the disc at the top of the receptacle. The disc can be rotated to permit selective ignition of one or more incense sticks.


Notwithstanding the above it is presently believed that there is a potential demand and a commercial market for an incense burner and storage device in accordance with the present invention.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates generally Portable censer bag shaped like a conventional suitcase with handle, where the censer elements are housed inside the said bag. The portable censer bag is designed to mount all censer elements inside, so we can take it everywhere and use it easily.


The portable censer bag is power by electric power supply 220 v AC and also, with rechargeable battery 12 v DC through the adapter. Every piece of the censer mounted in a suitable place in the bag according to its size or height. And so, each piece is fixed while carrying the bag. There is a decoration lighting strip surround the bag which also used as indication of the charging of the battery according to light intensity. The Bag made of strong materials to withstand the shocks and coated with a layer of sponge and an artificial skin. These and other features of the present invention will become readily apparent upon further review of the following specification and drawings.
