Detailed Embodiments
[0028] The embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings below.
[0029] Please refer Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an outdoor heater of the present application includes a burner head 1, a support rod 2, and a base 3. One end of the support rod 2 is fixed to the base 3, and the other end of the support rod 2 is fixed to the burner head 1. The burner head 1 is located above the support rod 2, and the support rod 2 is located above the base 3.
[0030] The burner head 1 includes a controller section 11, a mesh base 12, a combustion mesh 13, and a reflector cover. The bottom of the housing of the controller section 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 2, the top of the controller section 11 is connected to the bottom of the mesh base 12, the top of the mesh base 12 is connected to the bottom of the combustion mesh 13, and the reflector cover is located above the combustion mesh 13.
[0031] Inside the combustion net 13, there are an ignition tray 14, an igniter 15, and a thermocouple 16. The gas tank inside the base 3 transports gas to the ignition tray 14 through a gas pipeline 21 and a controller unit 11. The igniter 15 and the thermocouple 16 are located at the gas outlet of the ignition tray 14. When the ignition tray 14 is ignited, the electric spark of the igniter 15 can ignite the gas flowing out from the gas outlet of the ignition tray 14. At the same time, heat is given to the thermocouple 16 during combustion, causing the thermocouple 16 to generate an electric current for the circuit of the controller unit 11 to meet the requirement that the controller unit 11 controls the continuous transportation of gas.
[0032] The burner head 1 includes a bracket. The bracket includes a first bracket 18 and a second bracket 19. The second bracket 19 is fixed to the top of the first bracket 18, and the other end of the first bracket 18 is fixed to the net base 12 or the wall of the controller unit 11. The second bracket 19 includes a first clip 191 and a second clip 192. The first clip 191 and the second clip 192 are fixed and installed in a detachable manner such as by bolts or snap connections; or the first clip 191 and the second clip 192 are fixed and installed by welding, riveting, or bonding. The second bracket 19 is used to support and fix the igniter 15 and the thermocouple 16, to stabilize the igniter 15 and the thermocouple 16, and at the same time determine the positions of the igniter 15 and the thermocouple 16, reducing the possibility of position deviation of the igniter 15 and the thermocouple 16.
[0033] The second bracket 19 further includes mounting holes 193. The mounting holes 193 are located on the first clip 191. There are multiple mounting holes 193. The mounting holes 193 are used for inserting or installing the top of the first bracket 18, the igniter 15, and the thermocouple 16. The shape of each mounting hole 193 is respectively adapted to the top of the first bracket 18, the igniter 15, and the thermocouple 16 one by one. That is, the contour shape of the mounting hole 193 is the same as or similar to the outer contour shape of the igniter 15 located inside the mounting hole 193, so that the mounting hole 193 is adaptively installed with the igniter 15. Similarly, the top of the first bracket 18 and the thermocouple 16 are adapted to the contour of the mounting hole 193. Taking the mounting hole 193 and the igniter 15 as an example, the connection or contact part between the igniter 15 and the mounting hole 193 is a non-circular structure, such as an ellipse, a flat plate structure, a triangle, a quadrilateral and other polygons, so that after the igniter 15 is installed in the mounting hole 193, the possibility of the igniter 15 rotating relative to the second bracket 19 is reduced. Similarly, when the top of the first bracket 18 is connected to the mounting hole 193 and when the igniter 15 is connected to the mounting hole 193, non-circular structures are used to reduce the possibility of relative rotation.
[0034] Both the first clip 191 and the second clip 192 are sheet metal parts. The top of the first clip 191 and the first bracket 18 can be fixedly installed by bolts or welding. One side of the first clip 191 is open, which is convenient for installing the top of the first bracket 18, the igniter 15 and the thermocouple 16. After installation, the second clip 192 is used to close and fix the opening of the first clip 191, improving the installation stability of the top of the first bracket 18, the igniter 15 and the thermocouple 16.
[0035] The burner head 1 includes a fixing member 17. The fixing member 17 is located inside the mesh base 12 or the controller part 11 and is fixed to the wall of the mesh base 12 or the controller part 11. The fixing member 17 is used to support a part of the gas pipeline 21 conveyed to the ignition disk 14, and the fixing member 17 can also support and fix the first bracket 18. The fixing member 17 includes an installation part 171 and a third clip 172. The installation part 171 and the third clip 172 cooperate to fix the first bracket 18. Specifically, one end of the first bracket 18 away from the second bracket 19 is fixed to the installation part 171, and the second clip 192 fixes the first bracket 18 to the installation part 171 by means of screws, snap connections, riveting or welding.
[0036] The fixing member 17 is fixedly connected to the mesh base 12. Specifically, the fixing member 17 is fixed to the bottom wall of the mesh base 12, or the fixing member 17 is riveted to the gas pipeline 21. The fixing member 17 supports the gas pipeline 21 located between the ignition disk 14 and the fixing member 17, so that one end of the gas pipeline 21 located between the fixing member 17 and the ignition disk 14 is fixed to the fixing member 17, and the other end is fixed to the ignition disk 14, that is, the weight of the ignition disk 14 is directly supported by the gas pipeline 21 and indirectly supported by the fixing member 17.
[0037] In some embodiments, the first bracket 18 can be directly welded, riveted, inserted, or snap-connected to the installation part 171 to fix the installation part 171 and the first bracket 18; or, the first bracket 18 and the fixing member 17 are integrally formed, and the installation part 171 is integrally formed with the first bracket 18; or, the first bracket 18 and the second bracket 19 are integrally formed; or, the first bracket 18, the second bracket 19 and the installation part 171 are integrally formed. The first bracket 18, the second bracket 19 and the installation part 171 are all sheet metal parts. It is convenient for product installation and fixation, and has good stability after installation.
[0038] In some embodiments, the connection between the first bracket 18 and the mounting portion 171 is a non-circular connection. For example, both the first bracket 18 and the mounting portion 171 are sheet metal connections; or, the outer contour of the connection between the first bracket and the mounting portion 171 is non-circular, such as polygons like triangles, quadrilaterals, and hexagons, ellipses, oval tracks, etc., reducing the possibility of mutual rotation after the connection between the first bracket 18 and the mounting portion 171 is completed, improving the stability between the first bracket 18 and the mounting portion 171, and further making the position of the second bracket 19 connected to the first bracket 18 stable. Similarly, the first bracket 18 and the second bracket 19 are fixed by welding, riveting, clamping, or screwing, and at the same time, the connection between the first bracket 18 and the second bracket 19 is a non-circular connection, and its principle is the same as the connection between the first bracket 18 and the mounting portion 171, which will not be elaborated here.
[0039] In some embodiments, the first bracket 18 is removed, so that the second bracket 19 is directly fixed to the fixing member 17; or the second bracket 19 and the fixing member 17 are integrally formed, and the second bracket 19 supports the thermocouple 16 and the igniter 15. The fixing method between the second bracket 19 and the fixing member 17 is welding, clamping, or screws, etc. The connection methods in the above embodiments can all be applied to the second bracket 19 and the fixing member 17. At the same time, the connection between the second bracket 19 and the fixing member 17 is a non-circular connection, reducing the possibility of mutual rotation after the connection between the second bracket 19 and the fixing member 17 is completed.
[0040] In some embodiments, the mounting portion 171 can be fixed to or integrally formed with the wall of the controller portion 11; or, the mounting portion 171 can be fixed to or integrally formed with the wall of the mesh base 12. Or, one end of the first bracket 18 away from the second bracket 19 is fixed or integrally formed with the wall of the controller portion 11; or, one end of the first bracket 18 away from the second bracket 19 is fixed or integrally formed with the wall of the mesh base 12. Or, the second bracket 19 is fixed or integrally formed with the wall of the controller portion 11; or, the second bracket 19 is fixed or integrally formed with the wall of the mesh base 12.
[0041] In some embodiments, the mounting portion 171 is separated from the fixing member 17 as an independent component, and one end of the first bracket 18 is fixed to the lower wall of the firing plate 14, the other end of the first bracket 18 is fixed to one end of the mounting portion 171, and the other end of the mounting portion 171 is fixed to the second bracket 19. The second bracket 19 fixes the thermocouple 16 and the igniter 15, and the fixing method can be screwing, riveting, welding, or clamping. The path of this fixing method is shorter and the fixing structure is simple, thus further improving the stability of the thermocouple 16 and the igniter 15. It can be understood that the first bracket 18 and the mounting portion 171 can be integrally formed, or both are integrally formed sheet metal structures; or the first bracket 18, the mounting portion 171, and the first clip 191 of the second bracket 19 are integrally formed, improving the fixing stability of the components.
[0042] The first bracket 18, the mounting portion 171, and the second bracket 19 are all located below the ignition plate 14, reducing the influence of the flame at the ignition port of the ignition plate 14 on the first bracket 18, the mounting portion 171, and the second bracket 19, thereby increasing the service life of the first bracket 18, the mounting portion 171, and the second bracket 19.
