The invention discloses a container and support stand for conventional
road flares, thereby allowing said stand to support flares during use.
The device consists of multiple round flare holders or tubes, which are
snapped around a central core holder. The core holder will accommodate
four (4) to six (6) flares dependent upon the model. Each flare tube has
a waterproof cap. To use, a person would select one or more flare tubes
from the central core, remove each cap, and slide out the flare. A
locking system to prevent the flare from falling all of the way back into
the tube is then activated, along with a spring-levered two-foot support
stand. The stand is then deployed with the flare ignited and dropped into
the tube. When finished, the spent flare can be discarded, a new one
placed in the holder, the cap replaced, and the holder snapped back into
the central core holder, thus making the device ready for the next use.
