AI Technical Summary
The reflectors in existing electric fireplaces tend to shift when rotating at high speeds, which reduces the imaging effect of the flames.
The system employs a stop and a limiting groove on the shaft. Through threaded connection and the cooperation between the limiting groove and the limiting strip, it prevents the reflector from moving axially and rotating circumferentially. The spacing between the reflectors is adjusted by an arc plate to improve installation stability.
It effectively prevents the reflector from shifting, improves the stability and effect of flame imaging, and facilitates installation and disassembly.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric fireplace technology, and in particular to a reflective component for an electric fireplace. Background Technology
[0002] The flame simulation device for an electric fireplace includes a colored light source, a reflector, a lampshade, artificial firewood, a motor, and an imaging screen. The reflector consists of a shaft and reflective sheets mounted on the shaft. The shaft is a slender, cylindrical iron rod, and the reflective sheets are double-sided reflective films. Each reflective sheet has a through hole in its center, through which the iron rod passes to connect the reflective sheets. The reflective sheets are arranged in a spiral shape. Because the iron rod shaft is cylindrical and has a smooth surface, it is not easy to fix the axial and circumferential directions of the reflective sheets. When the motor speed is too high, the reflective sheets are prone to shifting, which reduces the flame imaging effect. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to limit the installation of reflectors and improve the imaging effect of flames.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A reflector assembly for an electric fireplace includes: a shaft with stop members connected to both ends, a limiting groove formed on the shaft, a reflector with a mounting hole in its center, the reflector reflecting light onto a reflector plate, the stop members preventing axial movement of the reflector, the limiting groove preventing circumferential rotation of the reflector, and an arc-shaped plate on the reflector, the arc-shaped plate sliding out to adjust the distance between two adjacent reflectors, the arc-shaped plate being able to slide on the reflector, and adjusting the distance between the two reflectors when the arc-shaped plate extends.
[0006] Preferably, threaded sections are provided on both sides of the shaft, and the stop piece is threadedly connected to the threaded section. After the reflector is installed, the stop piece is rotated to make it contact the light-emitting sheet, which can prevent the reflector from moving along the shaft axis.
[0007] Preferably, the reflector has two arc-shaped portions, which are distributed left and right, and form mounting holes. During installation, the shaft is aligned with the mounting holes and then moved axially.
[0008] Preferably, the limiting grooves are evenly distributed along the circumference.
[0009] Preferably, a limiting strip is connected inside the mounting hole, and the limiting strip is adapted to the limiting groove.
[0010] Preferably, a fixing plate is provided on both sides of one of the arc-shaped portions, and multiple fixing slots are provided on the fixing plate for adjusting the extension position of the arc-shaped plate.
[0011] Preferably, the curved plate has side plates on both sides, an adjustment plate on the upper side of the side plates, a fixing block on the adjustment plate, and the side plates and the adjustment plate are connected by a spring.
[0012] Preferably, the adjusting plate consists of an arc-shaped pressure plate and plates disposed on both sides of the arc-shaped pressure plate. Limiting protrusions are provided at both ends of the side plates. When pressed, the arc-shaped pressure plate is pressed, and the two ends of the plates are limited by the limiting protrusions, so that the plates can rise and fall stably.
[0013] Preferably, the plate body is in contact with the lower surface of the top of the fixing plate, and the fixing plate limits the plate body from the top, so as to stabilize the structure and the fixing block.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least one of the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. By providing threaded sections and stop parts at both ends of the shaft, the reverse side is effectively prevented, and installation and disassembly are convenient;
[0016] 2. By providing uniformly spaced limiting grooves on the circumference of the shaft, and providing limiting strips on the reflector that can be inserted into the limiting grooves, the limiting strips and limiting grooves cooperate to limit the reflector in the circumference, and the included angle of the connected reflectors can also be adjusted by different insertion methods.

[0028] Please see Figures 1-5 A reflective assembly for an electric fireplace includes a shaft 1, a drive device connected to the end of the shaft 1, and a plurality of reflective sheets 2 disposed on the shaft 1, the plurality of reflective sheets 2 being adjacent to each other and arranged at a certain deflection angle.
[0029] Both sides of the shaft 1 are provided with threaded sections, and a stop member 11 is provided on the threaded section. One end of the stop member 11 abuts against the reflector 2 to limit the displacement of the reflector 2 in one axial direction. Preferably, the stop member 11 is a limit nut.
[0030] The reflector 2 has two arc-shaped portions 21, which are distributed left and right, and a mounting hole is formed between the two arc-shaped portions 21. The shaft 1 passes through the mounting hole to connect with the reflector 2. A limiting groove 12 is formed between the two threaded sections of the shaft 1. The limiting groove 12 is formed along the length direction of the shaft 1 and is evenly distributed circumferentially. A limiting strip 22 is connected in the mounting hole. The limiting strip 22 is slidably connected in the limiting groove 12, so that the reflector 12 can slide along the axial direction of the shaft 1, and the limiting reflector 12 can rotate circumferentially relative to the shaft 1. At the same time, the staggered angle between two adjacent reflectors 12 can be adjusted by selecting the corresponding angle of the limiting groove 12.
[0031] The reflector assembly also includes an arc plate 3, which is disposed between two adjacent reflectors 2 and is used to adjust the axial spacing between the two reflectors 2. At the same time, the arc plate 3 is also used to improve the connection stability between the reflector 2 and the shaft 1.
[0032] The reflector 2 has fixing plates 23 on both sides of one of its arc-shaped portions 21. A groove is formed between the fixing plates 23 and the end face of the reflector 2. The arc-shaped plate 3 is disposed in the groove and can move along the length of the groove. The arc-shaped plate 3 includes side plates 31 on both sides and an adjusting plate 32 connecting the side plates 31. A spring 34 is disposed between the side plates 31 and the adjusting plate 32. The adjusting plate 32 can move relative to the side plates 31 by pressing and displacing.
[0033] The adjusting plate 32 is also equipped with a fixing block 33. The fixing plate 23 has several fixing grooves 24 spaced apart along its length. The fixing grooves 24 are connected to the sliding groove. The side plate 31 and the adjusting plate 32 are placed in the sliding groove. The fixing block 33 can be locked in the fixing groove 24 to fix the arc plate 3 and the reflector 2. The entire arc plate 3 has a certain length. When adjusting the distance between two adjacent reflectors 2, the length of the arc plate 3 offset from the side edge of the reflector 2 is adjusted by selecting the fixing groove 24.
[0034] The adjusting plate 32 includes an arc-shaped pressure plate 321 and plate bodies 322 disposed on both sides of the arc-shaped pressure plate 321. Limiting protrusions are provided at both ends of the side plate 31, and the plate body 322 is positioned between the two limiting protrusions.
[0035] When installing this reflective assembly, one of the stop pieces 11 is pre-installed. Then, the reflective pieces 2 are inserted one by one onto the shaft 1 at the set angle. The axial position of the arc plate 3 on the reflective piece 2 is adjusted. Finally, the other end stop piece 11 is installed to lock all the reflective pieces 2.
