[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0032] The following is combined with Figures 1-4 The cremator of the present invention is described.

[0033] An embodiment of the present invention provides a cremator, including a furnace 100, a sunlight simulation device 200, and at least one focusing component 400. The furnace 100 is used to place a body 300 and provide a combustion space for the body 300. The sunlight simulation device 200 is used to simulate and emit sunlight. The focusing component 400 is disposed on the light transmission path of the sunlight simulation device 200 and is used to focus the simulated sunlight. By moving the focusing component 400, the focal point can move to various parts of the body 300, heating the body 300 from all directions and causing it to burn, ultimately completing the cremation of the body 300.

[0034] The cremator provided by this invention focuses simulated sunlight and then heats and burns the remains 300 without using any fossil fuels, thus solving the problem of harmful substances produced by the combustion of fossil fuels.

[0035] In some embodiments of the present invention, the interior of the furnace 100 may be provided with a cavity 110 for placing the remains 300. An entrance communicating with the cavity 110 is provided on one side of the furnace 100, and an openable and closable sealing door is provided at the entrance. When it is necessary to place the remains 300 into the cavity 110, the sealing door can be opened, a trolley can be used to push the remains 300 into the cavity 110, and then the sealing door can be closed.

[0036] A light channel 120 is provided above the cavity 110, which connects to the top of the furnace 100. Through the light channel 120, light can enter the cavity 110 and be directed toward the remains 300 to be cremated.

[0037] Since the light channel 120 in this embodiment is located at the top of the furnace 100, the sunlight simulation device 200 and the focusing component 400 can be correspondingly arranged at the top of the furnace 100.

[0038] The sunlight simulation device 200 is used to simulate and emit sunlight, and the focusing component 400 is used to focus the simulated sunlight so that the simulated sunlight can pass through the light channel 120 and be focused on the body 300. The temperature of the focused light can reach hundreds or even thousands of degrees, which can be used to ignite the body 300, thereby achieving the effect of cremation of the body 300.

[0039] The sunlight simulation device 200 can be suspended from the top of the furnace 100, or it can be fixed to the top of the furnace 100 by a support frame.

[0040] In regions of my country rich in total solar radiation resources, such as parts of the Tibet Autonomous Region, the average annual solar radiation intensity is approximately 600 W / m². 2 Around 800 W / m² in summer, solar radiation intensity in many southern cities can reach 800 W / m². 2 about.

[0041] Currently, the full-spectrum solar simulation device 200, model LP-SL4040, manufactured by Guangzhou Langpu Optoelectronic Technology Co., Ltd., has a radiation intensity range of 600~1200W / m². 2 The solar radiation intensity has already exceeded that of many southern cities in summer. Shanghai Fode Lighting Equipment Co., Ltd. produces the 200 high-flow solar simulation device, model FD-SUN13KW, which can achieve adjustable, controllable, and repeatable ultra-high photothermal conversion indoors. Its technical parameters include a radiation intensity range of 1MW / m². 2 -20MW / m 2 It far exceeds the intensity of natural sunlight in summer, and can be adjusted as needed.

[0042] Therefore, the sunlight simulation device 200 in the embodiments of the present invention can use at least the two types of sunlight simulation devices 200 described above, and uses artificial sunlight with a higher intensity than natural sunlight, resulting in a higher temperature after focusing.

[0043] A focusing component 400 is positioned between the light channel 120 and the sunlight simulation device 200. As the simulated sunlight passes through the focusing component 400, it converges the sunlight. The converged light then enters the cavity 110 through the light channel 120, focusing the light onto the location on the remains 300 where they need to be ignited.

[0044] As the focusing component 400 moves, the position of the focal point on the remains 300 can be changed. By changing the position of the focal point, different parts of the remains 300 are burned, ultimately completing the cremation.

[0045] The focusing assembly 400 may include one, two or more, and the focusing assembly 400 is movably connected to the top of the furnace 100, so that the focusing assembly 400 can move to various positions above the light channel 120.

[0046] When there is only one focusing component 400, it is responsible for igniting all parts of the body 300. During the cremation process, the focusing component 400 needs to move around at various positions above the body 300 until all parts of the body 300 are cremated.

[0047] When there are two or more focusing components 400, multiple light guiding devices can be arranged in different areas. Each focusing component 400 corresponds to one area of ​​the remains 300, and the focusing components 400 move in all directions above their respective areas so that the focal point passes through various positions of the remains 300 and the positions of the remains 300 that are irradiated are burned.

[0048] Of course, a preferred embodiment is to arrange multiple focusing components 400 at the same time, with each focusing component 400 responsible for a part of the area, which can speed up the cremation efficiency of the remains 300.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present invention, the sunlight simulation device 200 can be suspended above the furnace 100, and the simulated sunlight is emitted vertically downwards. In this embodiment, the horizontal cross-section of the light channel 120 can be rectangular, and the surface of the sunlight simulation device 200 used to emit light can also be rectangular. Furthermore, the width of the sunlight simulation device 200 is greater than or equal to the width of the light channel 120, and the length of the sunlight simulation device 200 is greater than or equal to the length of the light channel 120. This ensures that when the focusing component 400 moves between the sunlight simulation device 200 and the light channel 120, light always passes through the focusing component 400 and is focused on any position of the remains 300.

[0050] In this embodiment, the focusing component 400 is located above the light channel 120, and the sunlight simulation device 200 is located above the focusing component 400, emitting simulated sunlight downwards. During installation, it is necessary to ensure that the principal optical axis of the focusing component 400 is parallel to the simulated sunlight. When the sunlight is parallel to the principal optical axis, the light rays passing through the focusing component 400 can converge at the focal point of the focusing component 400, thus generating a high temperature at the focal point, which can ignite the remains 300.

[0051] In some embodiments of the present invention, the focusing assembly 400 may include a convex lens 410, a clamping assembly 420, a first moving assembly, a second moving assembly, and a third moving assembly. The first moving assembly, the second moving assembly, and the third moving assembly can move the convex lens 410 above the light channel 120 via the clamping assembly 420, so that light rays passing through the principal optical axis of the convex lens 410 can enter the cavity 110 at various positions in the light channel 120, thereby heating and burning the remains 300 at various positions.

[0052] The fixing part of the third movable component can be movably connected to the top of the furnace 100, or it can be movably connected to other devices located above the furnace 100, such as the roof located above the furnace 100. This embodiment is described using the example of the fixing part of the third movable component being movably connected to the top of the furnace 100.

[0053] The light channel 120 can be a rectangular through hole. The width and length of the light channel 120 must be at least equal to the width and length of the trolley. In a preferred embodiment, the width of the light channel 120 is greater than the width of the trolley, and the length of the light channel 120 is greater than the length of the trolley.

[0054] A slide rail 451 can be installed at the top of the furnace chamber 100. The slide rail 451 extends along the length direction parallel to the light channel 120 and is located on one side of one of the long sides of the light channel 120. The third moving component includes a moving base 452 and a pulley 453 located at the bottom of the moving base 452. The pulley 453 slides in cooperation with the slide rail 451, and a drive motor 454 is also installed on the pulley 453. The drive motor 454 drives the pulley 453 to rotate, thereby causing the moving base 452 to move along the extension direction of the slide rail 451.

[0055] The second moving component includes a second telescopic cylinder 440, which can be a pneumatic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder. The cylinder barrel of the second telescopic cylinder 440 is connected to the moving seat 452. The telescopic rod of the second telescopic cylinder 440 extends upward and retracts downward.

[0056] The first moving component includes a fixed frame 431 and a moving frame 432. The bottom of the fixed frame 431 is connected to the telescopic rod of the second telescopic cylinder 440, and moves up and down with the extension and retraction of the second telescopic cylinder 440. The moving frame 432 is slidably connected to the fixed frame 431, and the sliding direction is parallel to the width direction of the light channel 120. A first telescopic cylinder 433 is provided between the moving frame 432 and the fixed frame 431, and the first telescopic cylinder 433 is used to drive the moving frame 432 to move relative to the fixed frame 431.

[0057] The clamping assembly 420 is connected to the movable frame 432. The clamping assembly 420 includes a connecting rod and two clamping arms. The connecting rod is connected to the movable frame 432 and extends in a direction parallel to the length of the light channel 120. The two clamping arms are respectively disposed at both ends of the connecting rod. Both clamping arms are perpendicular to the connecting rod and extend in a direction parallel to the width of the light channel 120. The two ends of the convex lens 410 along the diameter direction are respectively connected to the two clamping arms.

[0058] Thus, when the drive motor 454 of the third moving component rotates, it can drive the convex lens 410 to move in a direction parallel to the length direction of the light channel 120. When the second telescopic cylinder 440 of the second driving component extends or retracts, it can drive the convex lens 410 to move in a vertical direction. When the first telescopic cylinder 433 of the first driving component extends or retracts, it can drive the convex lens 410 to move in a direction parallel to the width direction of the light channel 120.

[0059] Furthermore, when the third moving component drives the convex lens 410 to move along the length direction parallel to the light path 120, the focal point of the light rays focused by the convex lens 410 can move along the height direction of the remains 300.

[0060] When the second moving component drives the convex lens 410 to move in the vertical direction, the intersection point of the light rays focused by the convex lens 410 can move along the thickness direction of the body 300.

[0061] When the first moving component drives the convex lens 410 to move in a direction parallel to the width of the light channel 120, the focal point of the light rays focused by the convex lens 410 can move in the width of the body 300.

[0062] This allows for all-around heating of the remains and combustion of the irradiated areas.

[0063] Among them, the aforementioned convex lens 410 can be a Fresnel lens.

[0064] Under otherwise constant conditions, the temperature at the focal point is directly proportional to the size of the convex lens 410. In actual use, a convex lens 410 of appropriate size and shape can be selected according to actual needs. The focal point of the convex lens 410 should be determined based on the distance from the top of the furnace 100 to the top of the trolley, ensuring that the focal point can reach the top of the trolley, or the lower surface of the body 300, and also the upper surface of the body 300, or the upper surface of the paper coffin, during the up-and-down movement of the lens.

[0065] Furthermore, the embodiments of the present invention use artificial simulated sunlight with a higher intensity than natural sunlight, resulting in a higher temperature after focusing. This allows for a smaller size of the convex lens 410, enabling the arrangement of more convex lenses 410, thereby increasing the ignition point and further improving the cremation efficiency.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present invention, to improve the thermal power of the cremator, auxiliary heating devices 500 can be installed on both sides of the cavity 110 of the furnace 100. The auxiliary heating devices 500 can be infrared heating tubes or electric heating tubes, such as ceramic radiation heaters or ceramic fiber module heaters. Infrared heating tubes have fast heating speed and high thermal efficiency, suitable for rapid temperature rise of the furnace 100. Electric heating tubes have accurate temperature control, high power, and high temperature. One type can be configured alone, or both can be configured simultaneously and used alternately, depending on actual needs.

[0067] To maximize the environmental friendliness of the cremation process, both the auxiliary heating device 500 and the solar simulation device 200 can be powered by green electricity, such as wind power or solar power.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present invention, since a light channel 120 is provided at the top of the cavity 110, if the light channel 120 is open, smoke will be discharged through the light channel 120 during the combustion of the remains 300, causing environmental pollution. Therefore, a light-transmitting plate 600 can be provided inside the light channel 120 to seal the top of the cavity 110. The light-transmitting plate 600 can be high-temperature resistant glass with a light transmittance greater than 95%.

[0069] In some embodiments of the present invention, a water gun 700 or an air blowing device 800 may also be provided on the third moving component, or both the water gun 700 and the air blowing device 800 may be provided on the third moving component, specifically on the moving base 452.

[0070] When a water gun 700 is installed, the water spray end of the water gun 700 faces the top of the light-transmitting plate 600. When an air blowing device 800 is installed, the air outlet end of the air blowing device 800 faces the top of the light-transmitting plate 600.

[0071] When there is dust on the top of the light-transmitting plate 600, the air blowing device 800 can blow air onto the top of the light-transmitting plate 600 to remove the dust and prevent it from blocking the light from entering. At the same time, the movable seat 452 can drive the air blowing device 800 to move along the length direction parallel to the light channel 120, realizing the effect of moving and blowing, so that the air blowing device 800 can perform all-round blowing on the light-transmitting plate 600.

[0072] Alternatively, a water gun 700 can be used to rinse the top surface of the light-transmitting panel 600, especially when dirt on the top of the light-transmitting panel 600 cannot be removed by the air blower 800. After rinsing, the air blower 800 can be used to dry the top surface of the light-transmitting panel 600. Of course, the movable base 452 can also move the water gun 700 along a direction parallel to the length of the light channel 120 to rinse the light-transmitting panel 600 from all directions.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present invention, an air blowing channel 130 is also provided on the furnace 100. The air blowing channel 130 connects the inner and outer sides of the cavity 110. One end of the air blowing channel 130 located inside the cavity 110 can face the side of the light-transmitting plate 600 located inside the cavity 110. Purging air can be input into the cavity 110 through the air blowing channel 130 to purge the light-transmitting plate 600.

[0074] Multiple air blowing channels 130 can be arranged along the length of the light channel 120 so that each position of the light-transmitting plate 600 can be purged.

[0075] During the cremation of the remains 300, smoke and dust will inevitably be generated. When a lot of smoke and dust accumulates at the bottom of the light-transmitting plate 600, that is, on the side located in the cavity 110, it will affect the light entering. The air blowing channel 130 can be opened at regular intervals and the blowing air can be introduced to blow away the smoke and dust on the light-transmitting plate 600.

[0076] In some embodiments of the present invention, an air supply channel 140 is also provided on the furnace 100. The air supply channel 140 connects the inner and outer sides of the cavity 110 and can supply combustion-supporting gas into the cavity 110 through the air supply channel 140. For example, it can be hot air or combustible gas such as oxygen.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present invention, a flue 150 is also provided in the furnace 100. One end of the flue 150 is connected to the cavity 110, and the other end of the flue 150 can be connected to a waste gas treatment device such as a secondary combustion chamber, so that the flue gas in the cavity 110 can be quickly discharged and the flue gas can be treated before being discharged to avoid causing environmental pollution.

[0078] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
