Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of European-style furnace technology, and in particular to an electrically compatible European-style furnace. Background Technology

[0002] The European-style stove is an energy-saving and environmentally friendly stove that typically uses liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) or natural gas as fuel. It features multiple safety protection measures to ensure safety during use. Due to its compact design, portability, attractive appearance, and simple and safe operation, it is widely used in various outdoor activities such as picnics, camping, and fishing. However, traditional European-style stoves are often affected by wind, causing the flame to become unstable and flicker, resulting in uneven heating of pots and pans. To address this issue, some European-style stoves with windproof features have appeared on the market.

[0003] For example, the Chinese utility model patent CN218328265U, entitled "A European-style furnace with windproof function," includes a European-style furnace body and a cover plate movably connected to the European-style furnace body via a pivot pin. Both sides of the European-style furnace body are fixedly connected to windproof structures. Each windproof structure includes two limiting plates and two first connecting plates. The two limiting plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the European-style furnace, and each has a fixed shell fixedly connected to its top. The rear sides of each of the two fixed shells are movably connected to connecting rods fixed to the European-style furnace body. A first windbreak plate, a second windbreak plate, and a movable shell are sequentially movably connected to the connecting rods. The fixed shell, the first windbreak plate, the second windbreak plate, and the movable shell are slidably connected, opening when the cover is opened and folding when the cover is closed. A first limiting rod fixedly connected to the cover plate is provided between the rear sides of the first two limiting plates. A support device is fixedly connected to the rear side of the European-style furnace body.

[0004] In the above scheme, the windproof structure is fixed to both sides of the Ouhua furnace body by two limiting plates and two first connecting plates. The windproof structure is formed by two shells and two wind baffles slidingly connected. It has many parts, a complex structure, and is relatively troublesome to install. In addition, it needs to be supported by the rear support device during use, which affects the aesthetics. Utility Model Content

The operating shaft passes through the right hinge joint and the right seat to rotatably connect the right wind baffle to the upper right side of the European-style furnace body. When wind protection is required, the left and right wind baffles are driven to rotate around their respective operating shafts until the left and right wind baffles are in a vertical state. Rotating the operating shaft causes the first gear ring to mesh with the second gear ring to limit the left or right wind baffle.

[0007] A further preferred embodiment of this utility model is as follows: the left hinge seat and the right hinge seat have the same structure. The right hinge seat includes a fixing plate fixed on the body of the European-style furnace. The fixing plate is provided with a number of equally spaced mounting rings. There are a number of left hinge joints and right hinge joints. The spacing between each hinge joint is equal and greater than or equal to the length of the mounting ring. The mounting ring and the connector are staggered and sleeved on the operating shaft.

[0008] A further preferred embodiment of this utility model is: the inner wall of the mounting ring on the last side is provided with an internal thread, and the rear section of the operating shaft is provided with an external thread that mates with the internal thread, so that the first gear ring can be engaged with or disengaged from the second gear ring by rotating the operating shaft.

[0009] A further preferred embodiment of this utility model is: the outer wall of the mounting ring has a quarter-circular arc notch to form a limiting platform. When the left and right baffle plates are rotated to be perpendicular to the body of the European-style furnace, the lower ends of the left and right baffle plates abut against the limiting platforms on the corresponding sides.

[0010] A further preferred embodiment of this utility model is: a rear baffle plate is fixedly provided on the rear side wall of the European-style furnace body, and the rear baffle plate, left baffle plate and right baffle plate block the wind from the left, right and rear sides of the European-style furnace body.

[0012] A further preferred embodiment of this utility model is as follows: except for the side close to the rear baffle, the left and right baffles are provided with flanges extending towards the body of the European-style furnace on the other three sides. When the left and right baffles are rotated until the flanges at the top of the left and right baffles are perpendicular to and abut against the body of the European-style furnace, the left and right baffles completely cover the top of the European-style furnace body to form a protective cover.

[0013] A further preferred embodiment of this utility model is: the left hinge joint is located on the flange at the bottom of the left windshield, and the right hinge joint is located on the flange at the bottom of the right windshield.

[0014] A further preferred embodiment of this utility model is: an adjustment handle is provided at the end of the operating shaft away from the wind deflector, and the adjustment handle is integrally formed with the operating shaft.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that these descriptions are merely descriptive and exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] It should be noted that similar labels in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it may not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0026] This embodiment mainly describes the electrically compatible European-style furnace, as detailed below:

[0027] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the electrically compatible heating furnace includes a heating furnace body 1 and a left baffle plate 2 and a right baffle plate 3 located on both sides of the heating furnace body 1. The left baffle plate 2 and the right baffle plate 3 are used to block the wind from the left and right sides of the heating furnace body 1 so that the heating furnace can heat the pot placed on the heating furnace. The specific connection method is as follows: a left hinge seat 4 and a right hinge seat 5 are respectively provided on the side walls of the two sides of the heating furnace body 1. A left hinge joint 6 adapted to the left hinge seat 4 is provided on the lower side of the left baffle plate 2, and a right hinge joint 7 adapted to the right hinge seat 5 is provided on the lower side of the right baffle plate 3. Both the right hinge joint 4 and the right hinge joint 5 are threadedly connected to an operating shaft 8. The operating shaft 8 is used to rotatably connect the left hinge joint 6 to the left hinge joint 4 and the right hinge joint 7 to the right hinge joint 5. The operating shaft 8 is provided with an annular platform 801 that can slide within the mounting base. The diameter of the annular platform 801 is larger than the diameter of the operating shaft. A first gear ring 802 is provided on the side wall of the annular platform 801. The side walls of both the left hinge joint 6 and the right hinge joint 7 are provided with a second gear ring 9 that meshes with the first gear ring 802. The operating shaft 8 passes through the left hinge joint 6 and the left seat body to rotatably connect the left windshield 2. The operating shaft 8 is connected to the upper left of the European-style furnace body 1. It is threadedly fixed to the left hinge seat 4. The operating shaft 8 passes through the right hinge joint 7 and the right seat, rotatably connecting the right baffle plate 3 to the right side of the European-style furnace body 1. The operating shaft 8 is threadedly fixed to the right hinge seat 5. The operating shaft 8 is threadedly engaged with either the left or right seat. Rotating the operating shafts 8 on the left or right sides of the European-style furnace body 1 allows the operating shaft 8 to slide back and forth on either the left or right seat, thereby causing the first gear ring 802 on the left side of the European-style furnace body 1 to move closer to or further away from the second gear ring 9 for engagement or disengagement. The first gear ring 802 on the right side of the main body 1 moves closer to engage with the second gear ring 9 or moves away from it to disengage. When the first gear ring 802 on the left or right side of the main body 1 engages with the second gear ring 9, the left baffle plate 2 or the right baffle plate 3 is pressed into a fixed state by the operating shaft 8 on which it is located and cannot rotate. When it is necessary to block the wind, the left baffle plate 2 and the right baffle plate 3 are driven to rotate around the operating shaft 8 on which they are located until the left baffle plate 2 and the right baffle plate 3 are in a vertical state. The operating shaft 8 is rotated to make the first gear ring 802 engage with the second gear ring 9 to limit the left baffle plate 2 or the right baffle plate 3. In this invention, the left and right wind deflectors 2 and 3 are rotatably connected to both sides of the furnace body 1 via an operating shaft 8 passing through a hinge seat and a hinge joint. The operating shaft 8 is threadedly connected to the two hinge seats. With fewer parts, the installation structure is simple and convenient. To facilitate the positioning of the left and right wind deflectors 2 and 3, when the left and right wind deflectors 2 and 3 are rotated to a vertical position, the operating shaft 8 is rotated so that the first gear ring 802 on the operating shaft 8 meshes with the second gear ring 9 of the left and right wind deflectors 2 and 3, thus positioning either the left or right wind deflector 2. The positioning in this invention only requires the meshing of the first gear ring 802 and the second gear ring 9 on the operating shaft 8. Furthermore, the positioning structure is located inside the left and right wind deflectors 3, which improves the overall aesthetics of the furnace body.

[0028] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the left hinge seat 4 and the right hinge seat 5 have the same structure. The right hinge seat 5 includes a fixing plate 501 fixed to the left side wall of the European-style furnace body 1. The fixing plate 501 is provided with a plurality of equally spaced mounting rings 502. The hinge joints on the left hinge seat 4 and the right hinge seat 5 are as many as a few, and the spacing between each hinge joint is equal and greater than or equal to the length of the mounting ring 502. During installation, each hinge joint is inserted into the spacing of each mounting ring 502 so that the hole of the hinge joint is aligned with the hole of the mounting ring 502, and the operating shaft 8 passes through the holes of the mounting ring 502 and the hinge joint. After installation, the mounting ring 502 and the connector are misaligned and sleeved on the operating shaft 8. In the above, there are at least two mounting rings 502 and at least one hinge joint. To improve the stability of the connection between the left hinge seat 4, the right hinge seat 5 and the European-style furnace body 1, multiple mounting rings 502 and hinge joints can be provided.

[0029] Specifically, to avoid the left hinge seat 4 and right hinge seat 5 being affected by the thread on the operating shaft 8 and thus not rotating smoothly, an internal thread 5021 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting ring 502 on the last side of the fixing plate 501, and an external thread 803 that mates with the internal thread 5021 is provided on the rear section of the operating shaft 8. By rotating the operating shaft 8, the operating shaft 8 slides forward or backward, causing the first gear ring 802 to engage with or move away from the second gear ring 9.

[0030] Specifically, the outer wall of the mounting ring 502 has a limiting platform 5022 formed by a quarter-circular arc notch. The limiting platform 5022 is used to restrict the left baffle plate 2 and the right baffle plate 3 from rotating between 0° and 90°. When the left baffle plate 2 and the right baffle plate 3 rotate to be perpendicular to the body of the European-style furnace 1, the lower ends of the left baffle plate 2 and the right baffle plate 3 abut against the limiting platform 5022 on the corresponding side. The setting of the limiting platform 5022 allows the user to quickly know the best position of the baffle, and the limiting platform 5022 also has the function of assisting the positioning of the operating shaft 8.

[0031] Specifically, a rear baffle plate 10 is fixedly installed on the rear side wall of the European-style furnace body 1. The rear baffle plate 10, left baffle plate 2, and right baffle plate 3 block the wind from the left, right, and rear sides of the European-style furnace body 1. The installation structure of the rear baffle plate 10 is as follows: a fixing seat 11 is provided on the left and right sides of the upper rear wall of the European-style furnace body 1. The fixing seat 11 has a vertical insertion port 1101. Insert plates 1001 are fixedly connected to both ends of the rear baffle plate 10 and inserted into the vertical insertion port 1101. The rear baffle plate 10 is inserted into the vertical insertion port 1101 and connected to the fixing seat 11 through the insertion plates 1001. The setting of the vertical insertion port 1101 and the insertion plate 1001 not only fixes the rear baffle plate 10, but also allows the rear baffle plate to be removed during carrying or transportation, making it easy to carry, reducing packaging space during transportation, and saving transportation costs.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the European-style furnace includes a housing 101. An electric furnace 102 driven by a power source is provided on the left side of the top surface of the housing 101, and a gas burner head 103 driven by gas is provided on the right side of the housing 101. A knob 104 is provided on the front side plate of the housing 101 to control the operation of the electric furnace 102 and the gas burner head 103 respectively.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, except for the side closest to the rear baffle 10, the left baffle 2 and right baffle 3 have flanges 12 extending towards the body of the European-style furnace 1 on the other three sides. The left hinge joint 6 is located on the flange 12 at the bottom of the left baffle 2, and the right hinge joint 7 is located on the flange 12 at the bottom of the right baffle 3. When the left baffle 2 and right baffle 3 are rotated until the flanges 12 at the top of the left baffle 2 and right baffle 3 are perpendicular to and abut against the body of the European-style furnace 1, the left baffle 2 and right baffle 3 will... The electric furnace 102 and gas burner 103 of the European-style furnace body 1 are completely covered to form a protective cover. The rotating design of the left wind baffle 2 and right wind baffle 3 not only serves to block the wind during use, but also allows the left hinge seat 4 to be flipped over and covered on the European-style furnace body during transportation. This not only reduces the overall size of the European-style furnace, lowering transportation and packaging costs, but also provides protection, preventing the electric furnace 102 and gas burner 103 from being damaged during transportation.

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, in order to facilitate the rotation of the operating shaft 8, an adjustment handle 804 is provided at the end of the operating shaft 8 away from the wind deflector. The adjustment handle 804 is integrally formed with the operating shaft 8.

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
