Flame simulation device and electric fireplace

Abstract

The invention discloses a flame simulation device, which comprises a light source, a flame plate, a flame projection screen and a rotating barrel, wherein the light source is arranged on one side of the rotating barrel; the rotating barrel is a rotary reflecting rotating barrel and comprises reflecting sheets, a prism, an end cover and a shaft; the prism is formed by combining a plurality of prism units; each cylindrical surface on the outer surface of each prism unit is provided with a reflecting sheet; and a light ray emitted by the light source is reflected by the rotary reflecting rotating barrel and then reflected by the flame plate to the flame projection screen, so that a flame image is generated. The flame simulation device has the advantages that: 1, by adopting the rotary reflecting rotating barrel, the reflecting sheets are arranged on the surface of the rotary reflecting rotating barrel, so that the flame is bright and has a good dynamic effect; and 2, the rotary reflecting rotating barrel consists of the same units, so that the flame simulation device has a simple structure and is easy and convenient to manufacture.

Description

technical field [0001] This invention relates to electric fireplaces. Background technique [0002] The flame simulating device in the electric fireplace usually adopts an electronic fire or a simulated fire, which is not used for heating, but only for visual effects and for decoration. [0003] Existing electric fireplaces with simulated flames are generally composed of two parts: a blower heating device and a flame simulation device. The flame simulation device generally has two types. Behind the plastic screen and mirror glass, the streamer is blown by the air and projected onto the glass surface to generate light flickering to simulate the flame during combustion. Although it has the vision of flame flickering, it does not have the scene of flame flickering during violent combustion; The second type is to install an active light source driven by a motor to rotate behind the simulated dendritic charcoal combustion medium, and then set a fire-shaped wall, a light-transmit...

[0003] Existing electric fireplaces with simulated flames are generally composed of two parts: a blower heating device and a flame simulation device. The flame simulation device generally has two types. Behind the plastic screen and mirror glass, the streamer is blown by the air and projected onto the glass surface to generate light flickering to simulate the flame during combustion. Although it has the vision of flame flickering, it does not have the scene of flame flickering during violent combustion; The second type is to install an active light source driven by a motor to rotate behind the simulated dendritic charcoal combustion medium, and then set a fire-shaped wall, a light-transmitting screen and mirror glass at the front, and use the light source emitted by the active light source to pass through the fire-shaped wall. The flame hole is used to form the shape of the flame, and then projected onto the light-transmitting screen and mirror glass to produce flame vision and increase the flame surge

[0004] There are other types of flame simulation devices, all of which have poor flame simulation effects or complicated production
