More specifically, the wing covers, which can rotate up and down, are connected to both sides of the main body on which the fire pit is formed by link members, and when not in use, the wing covers can be rotated to the top of the main body to hide the fire pit, and the entire burner can be folded more compactly for carrying and storage.The wing covers protect the fire pit and enhance the aesthetic appeal, and the portable burner can function as a sufficient interior accessory even when displayed as is without a separate case, and can also be convenient for users. [Background technology]

[0002] A typical portable burner has a gas container mounting portion provided separately on one side of a body having a burner nozzle, and the gas container mounting portion is opened and closed by a cover.

[0003] Such portable burners are carried and stored in a separate bag.

[0004] Meanwhile, the number of people camping has been increasing in recent years, and one of the essential camping equipment is a burner (stove).

[0005] When camping, people often use a general portable burner, but they also mainly use various types of camping burners, such as those with only a connector on the burner.

[0006] As such, the main reasons for purchasing and using a camping burner separately rather than a regular portable burner include the heat output, but another reason is the inconvenience of transporting and storing it.

[0007] In particular, when going camping, there are so many items that it is difficult to pack, so camping equipment that is as small as possible and can reduce volume when stored is becoming popular. However, general portable burners tend to be avoided because they are large and flat when stored in a plastic bag, making them difficult to pack.

[0008] However, camping burners are much more expensive than general portable burners, which makes them a costly purchase. Therefore, there is a need to develop a product that can be used safely in the form of a low-cost general portable burner, yet is easy to carry and store. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0009] Therefore, the present invention has been devised to solve the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide a portable burner that can be folded from a wide, flat shape into a more compact shape for easy portability and storage, while enhancing aesthetic appeal by hiding the burner nozzle with wing covers on both sides when not in use. [Means for solving the problem]

[0010] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the portable burner of the present invention comprises a main body having a burner nozzle, and two wing covers connected to both side ends of the main body by link members, which are rotatable to overlap the upper surface of the main body and which accommodate the burner nozzle when rotated upward, and one of the two wing covers has a gas container mounting portion with a connector connected to the burner nozzle.

[0011] In the portable burner according to the present invention, the other of the two wing covers is provided with a storage section.

[0012] In addition, in the portable burner of the present invention, the link member has both side ends hingedly connected to the inside of the main body and the inside of the wing cover, respectively, and the main body is characterized in that a slit is formed connecting the side portion and the top portion, through which the link member can be clamped and rotated.

[0013] Furthermore, the portable burner according to the present invention is characterized by further comprising a fixing means for maintaining the wing cover in the fully rotated upward or downward state. [Effects of the Invention]

[0014] The portable burner according to the present invention comprises:

[0015] The wing cover, which has a gas container mounting section and a storage section, is connected to both ends of the main body by a link member rotation structure, and when not in use, the wing cover can be rotated and folded onto the top of the main body, making it possible to carry and store in a more compact design, while safely hiding the burner and eliminating the need for a separate bag.

[0016] The structure required for the wing cover's up and down rotation has been simplified, and the rotation of the wing cover has become more stable.

[0017] When the wing cover is folded or unfolded, the wing cover remains fixed without moving, which has the effect of making it safer to use and store. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0038] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A portable burner according to the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] As shown in Figures 1 to 6, the present invention relates to a portable burner, which roughly comprises a main body 10 having a burner nozzle 11, and a pair of wing covers 20A, 20B each having a gas container attachment section 23 and a storage section 24.

[0040] Specifically, the present invention provides:

[0041] a body 10 having a nozzle 11;

[0042] The body 10 has two wing covers 20A and 20B connected to both ends thereof by link members 21, which are rotatable to overlap the upper surface of the body 10 and accommodate the nozzle 11 when rotated upward.

[0043] One of the two wing covers 20A, 20B (hereinafter referred to as the first wing cover 20A) has a gas container mounting portion 23 having a connector 22 connected to the nozzle 11,

[0044] The other of the two wing covers 20A, 20B (hereinafter referred to as the second wing cover 20B) includes a storage section 24.

[0045] The main body 10 is in the form of a general burner, and has a burner nozzle 11 on the top surface and a pedestal around the burner nozzle 11.

[0046] The first wing cover 20A and the second wing cover 20B are arranged side by side on both ends of the main body 10, and when not in use, the wing covers 20A and 20B can be rotated upward on the top surface of the main body 10 to hide the burner 11.

[0047] The first wing cover 20A has a rear surface of the gas container mounting portion 23 that opens in the shape of a gas container, allowing the gas container to be clamped in front and fastened to the connector 22 provided on the front surface of the gas container mounting portion 23.

[0048] The first wing cover 20A is provided with an ignition means capable of igniting, extinguishing, and adjusting the flame intensity. In the drawings, only a typical knob 25 type ignition means is shown as a representative, but a typical burner safety valve or the like may be added.

[0049] The second wing cover 20B has the same shape and structure as the first wing cover 20A, except that it does not have the connector 22. The second wing cover 20B has a storage section 24 inside, which can be used to store other camping equipment or unused gas bottles.

[0050] In addition to being used for storing items, when not in use, the second wing cover 20B, together with the first wing cover 20A, conceals and protects the burner nozzle 11, conceals the burner shape, evokes the feeling of an old radio, and can be used as an interior accessory by directly displaying it without storing it separately in a separate bag.

[0051] The first wing cover 20A and the second wing cover 20B have openings on their inner surfaces and bottom surfaces, and when rotated upward, they are tightly attached to the top surface of the main body 10, and the burner nozzle 11 and the receiving base protruding from the top surface of the main body 10 are accommodated and hidden inside the wing covers 20A and 20B.

[0052] However, if the main body 10 has a shape in which the height of the nozzle can be lowered and the upper plate with the protruding pedestal can be flipped over, as in the case of a general burner, the opening structure of the wing covers 20A and 20B may differ from that shown in the drawings.

[0053] Furthermore, both ends of the link member 21 are hingedly connected to the inside of the main body 10 and the inside of each wing cover 20A, 20B,

[0054] The main body 10 has a first slit 12 formed between a side surface and an upper surface, through which the link member 21 is sandwiched and rotatable.

[0055] Specifically, first, a first support portion 14 protrudes from the inside of the main body 10 at a predetermined height, and a second support portion 26 protrudes from the inside of each of the wing covers 20A and 20B at a height lower than that of the first support portion 14.

[0056] Both ends of a bar-shaped link member 21 are hingedly connected to the first support portion 14 and the second support portion 26, respectively.

[0057] Such link members 21 are provided in a set of two, one at the front and one at the rear, for each of the wing covers 20A and 20B.

[0058] Furthermore, the first slit 12 is formed by cutting a portion of the top and side surfaces of the main body 10 in the form of a groove along the rotation path of the link member 21, and the link member 21 is connected while penetrating the top and side surfaces of the main body 10, so that the wing covers 20A, 20B are tightly attached to the main body 10 when they have completed their up and down rotation.

[0059] Reference numeral '13' denotes a second slit through which a hose or pipe (not shown) connecting the nozzle 11 and the connector 22 passes when the first wing cover 20A rotates up and down.

[0060] The present invention further comprises a fixing means for maintaining the wing covers 20A, 20B in the upward rotation complete state or the downward rotation complete state.

[0061] As a first embodiment of the fixing means, the present invention includes magnets 27 provided on the inner side of each of the wing covers 20A and 20B, which contact both ends of the main body 10.

[0062] First, the main body 10 may be further provided with another magnet that can be attached by magnetic force in correspondence with the magnets 27 of the wing covers 20A and 20B on both sides, or the main body 10 itself may be made of a material that can be attached by magnetic force.

[0063] However, the magnets 27 of the wing covers 20A and 20B are arranged symmetrically to each other and have different polarities.

[0064] As a result, when the wing covers 20A, 20B are folded onto the top surface of the main body 10 when not in use, the magnets 27 of the wing covers 20A, 20B are attached to each other by magnetic force, preventing the wing covers 20A, 20B from opening unexpectedly and rotating downward.

[0065] When the wing covers 20A and 20B are opened to both sides for use, the magnets 27 of the wing covers 20A and 20B are attached to both side surfaces of the main body 10 by magnetic force, fixing the wing covers 20A and 20B in place.

[0066] Next, as a second embodiment of the fixing means, the present invention is provided with a tightening bolt 28 that penetrates each wing cover 20A, 20B horizontally to the left and right and is clamped, but the threaded portion at the inner tip can be screwed into both side portions of the main body 10 or the wing cover 20A, 20B on the opposite side.

[0067] Each wing cover 20A, 20B has a tightening bolt 28 sandwiched in its outer surface, and a guide portion 29 protruding upward at the inner end of the bottom, the guide portion 29 having a guide hole 291 in which the tightening bolt 28 is sandwiched and supported.

[0068] The body 10 has first fastening holes 15 in the form of screw tabs on both sides thereof, into which the threads of the fastening bolts 28 can be threadedly coupled.

[0069] Therefore, after spreading the wing covers 20A and 20B to the left and right, tightening the fastening bolt 28 into the first fastening hole 15 prevents the wing covers 20A and 20B from moving unexpectedly, and the burner 11 can be used safely in a fixed state.

[0070] Furthermore, the tightening bolts 28 of the wing covers 20A and 20B on both sides are arranged alternately on other lines rather than on the same line on the left and right, and each guide portion 29 is provided with a second fastening hole 292 in the form of a screw tab into which the threaded portion of the tightening bolt 28 on the opposite side can be screwed.

[0071] Referring to the drawings, the guide portion 29 of the first wing cover 20A has a front guide hole 291 into which the fastening bolt 28 is inserted, and a second fastening hole 292 behind the guide portion 29.

[0072] The guide portion 29 of the second wing cover 20B is opposite to the first wing cover 20A in that the fastening bolt 28 is sandwiched in the rear guide hole 291 and a second fastening hole 292 is provided in front of it.

[0073] The guide hole 291 of the first wing cover 20A and the second fastening hole 292 of the second wing cover 20B are aligned on the same line on the left and right, and the second fastening hole 292 of the first wing cover 20A and the guide hole 291 of the second wing cover 20B are aligned on the same line on the left and right.

[0074] Therefore, when the two wing covers 20A, 20B are folded onto the top surface of the main body 10, the tightening bolts 28 on both sides are aligned with the second fastening holes 292 of the opposite wing covers 20A, 20B, thereby tightening and fastening each tightening bolt 28 into the second fastening holes 292, thereby preventing the two wing covers 20A, 20B from unexpectedly unfolding during carrying and storage.

[0075] In the above description of the present invention, a portable burner has been described with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention may be modified, changed, and replaced in various ways by those skilled in the art, and such modifications, changes, and replacements should be construed as falling within the scope of protection of the present invention.
