Abstract

A handheld electric blower for stimulating and accelerating a fire includes: a hollow, generally cylindrical shaped body having a tapered, open front tip and an open rear end; a turbine blade positioned within the body; an electric motor positioned within the body and operationally coupled to the turbine blade; an adjustable baffle positioned within the front tip of the body; and a baffle control provided on an external surface of the body to adjust the position of the baffle to decrease or increase the flow of air through the body. Activation of the electric motor causes the turbine blade to rotate, thereby drawing air into the open rear end of the body and directing the air out of the tip.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 528,395 entitled “Handheld Battery Operated Blower” filed Aug. 29, 2011, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates, in general, to blowers and, more particularly, to blowers that are portable, handheld, and battery operated and configured for use to quickly and safely kindle or maintain a fire.[0004]2. Description of Related Art[0005]Traditional squeeze type bellows have existed for centuries and are known prior art. Historically, traditional bellows were necessary for kindling and maintaining wood, coal, or charcoal burning fires, but are today pieces of decorative art rather than efficient tools. Traditional bellows are manually operated and provide an intermittent, rather than continuous flow of air which is more efficient in kindling and maintain...
