Flameless candle with simulated flame and wick

A simulated flame and wick device for use with a flameless candle and other devices requiring the appearance of a natural flame. A flame shaped housing, comprising an upper and lower cover, contains a flexible LED filament bulb, with the positive and negative leads passing through dedicated channels within a housing designed to have the appearance of a candle wick. The combination of the material used for the wick housing along with the positive and negative leads from the flexible LED filament bulb are designed to provide strength and flexibility to the wick component. In turn these leads pass through a positioning housing to orient the simulated flame and wick correctly when used with flameless candles and other devices. The simulated flame and wick along with the other components described are contained within the internal housing of a simulated candle shell or other appropriate device, thus simulating the appearance of a flame burning atop a blackened wick.
