Benefits of technology

[0007]The top wall of the cabinet can be formed with various pieces of wood. For example, wood edge pieces can be used to form a generally rectangular perimeter of the top wall and these pieces may be mitered or curved to create attractive edges on the top wall or top surface of the portable space heater. The top perimeter pieces of wood can form an interior area which can be filled with a center piece of wood.

Problems solved by technology

Even though space heaters are useful, they do have certain drawbacks and can cause problems.
For example, the grill at the rear of the space heater may become clogged with dust and the space heater may ov

Embodiment Construction

[0023]FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrate a decorative space heater 1 that includes a base unit 2, five candle units 3, and six glass plates 4. FIG. 3 illustrates an example remote control 40 that can be used to control the space heater 1. FIG. 4 illustrates a bottom of a candle 3 used in a space heater 1. FIGS. 5, 6, 7, and 8 illustrate the front, top, bottom and back views of the space heater 1, respectively. As discussed further below, the base unit 2 of the space heater 1 includes a heating assembly 6 that blows warm air from the base unit 2.

[0024]The candles 3 on top of the base 2 provide for a space heater 1 that is more attractive than a traditional space heater. As a best seen in FIG. 4, the candles 3 can be formed with plastic internal cores 52 and with a wax 50 exterior. The candles 3 in the preferred embodiment are light yellow paraffin wax pillar candles 3. The candles 3 may have a battery compartment 54 to supply battery power to lights 60 that resemble natural candlelight. The ba...

Abstract

A system, apparatus, and method for heating air with a space heater is presented. The space heater includes a space heater cabinet and a plurality of candles. The space heater cabinet is more than three times as wide as it is tall. The space heater cabinet has a top wall and a bottom wall. The space heater cabinet houses a heating unit, an intake vent, and an exhaust vent. The heating unit can heat air within the space heater cabinet. The intake vent allows air to enter the cabinet and the exhaust vent allows warmed air to exit the cabinet.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Technical Field[0002]The current invention relates generally to apparatus, systems and methods for heating air. More particularly, the apparatus systems and methods relate to heating air with a space heater. Specifically, the apparatus, systems and methods provide for heating a space with a space heater that is attractive and that appears as if the space is being heated with candles and that is still relatively portable.[0003]2. Background Information[0004]Space heaters can be used to heat one area of a building or a home without requiring the central heating system to heat the entire home or building to a high temperature. This can reduce the overall heating cost because one room or a couple of rooms may be heated by space heaters to 70 degrees Fahrenheit while the rest of the building may be heated to 65 degrees Fahrenheit. Space heaters are also popular because they are portable, are generally inexpensive, and can be moved from room-to-room. Ev...
