Benefits of technology

[0003]To solve the problems such as dull appearance, bad three dimension, poor visual effect and etc . . . The present invention provides a stereo flexible charcoal bed used on an electric fireplace. The main object of the present invention is to provide a stereo flexible charcoal bed with varying charcoal flame structure, intermittent light and shad of the sparkling light-spots, good sense of stereo and perfect visual effect.
[0004]Another object of the present invention is to provide a electric fireplace with stereo charcoal bed, the light-spots of which is sparkling and intermittent light and shad, and the reality and visual effect of which is perfect. The problems of the existing technology such as bad simulation effect, lack of the sense of stereo and reality are solved.
[0005]According to one exemplary embodiment, the present invention relates to a stereo flexible charcoal bed comprising a vessel with at least one transparent bottom, a number of charcoals disposed in the vessel comprising a number of movable light-holding charcoals with a plurality of transparent surfaces, an imaging mechanism disposed on the charcoals. The charcoal bed is a kind of structure of vessel, and a number of light-holding charcoals with a plurality of transparent surfaces are disposed in the vessel, which replaces the wood or charcoal bed with integral structure of the conventional electric fireplace. Because of the relative positioning function of the vessel, the light-holding charcoals of various sizes and shapes in the vessel can change the stacking position in the vessel arbitrarily to form a charcoal bed structure of various shapes. Users can customize the figure of the charcoal bed according to personal visual preference to satisfy every kind of visual requirements. At the same time, the visual effect of the electric fireplace is improved. The transparent surface on the light-holding charcoal refers to a certain surface of the light-holding charcoal, which is photic, then refracts and reflects the light passing through, and simultaneously, reflects external light, so the light is refracted and reflected inside the light-holding charcoal, among the light-holding charcoal, as well as between the light-holding charcoal and the image screen for several times, and a light-holding effect is achieved. In addition, the shape and size of the light-holding charcoal, the number and transparent property of transparent surfaces can be chosen according to personal preference. A plurality of light-tight surfaces could be disposed on the light-holding charcoals as well. The imaging mechanism is disposed on the charcoals. The light projected by the light source disposed on the electric fireplace and the flame generator passes through the transparent bottom of the vessel and then projects to the charcoals disposed in the vessel. An image of burning charcoal flame is formed on the imaging mechanism disposed on the charcoals.

Problems solved by technology

The problems of the existing technology such as bad simulation effect, lack of the sense of stereo and reality are solved.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a stereo flexible charcoal bed and an electric fireplace with a flexible charcoal bed comprising a vessel with at least one transparent bottom, a number of charcoals disposed in the vessel comprising a number of movable light-holding charcoals with a plurality of transparent surfaces, an imaging mechanism disposed on the charcoals. The essential effect of the present invention is to solve the monotone charcoal flame, bad sense of stereo and poor visual effect of the exiting electric fireplace, meanwhile, the problems such as bad simulative effect, and lack of reality and the sense of stereo are solved as well. The charcoal flame structure of the present invention could change arbitrarily and the light-spots of burning flame are sparkling intermittently with bright and shade. The visual effect and the authenticity are both perfect.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to an electric fireplace, more particularly, a stereo flexible charcoal bed and an electric fireplace with a stereo flexible charcoal bed.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The simulative charcoal bed of the conventional electric fireplace is of integral strip structure made of translucent material. The charcoal bed is disposed at the back of and below the image screen of the electric fireplace, and a charcoal flame image is formed on the image screen after the projection of imaging light source. The structure described above leads to dull appearance of the charcoal flame and bad visual effect. Moreover, the color of the charcoal flame is achieved by coloring the simulative charcoal bed and the image screen. The color and brightness of the charcoal flame is very monotonous and lack of variety. To solve the shortcomings described above, an independent light source for the simulative charcoal bed is adopted. Such as the artificia...
