When the electric fireplace body 1 is in use, the LED light inside the light source 3 is powered on, and the LED light shines inside the electric fireplace body 1. The LED light shines on the rotating reflector and forms dynamic light and shadow through irregular refraction. When the light and shadow shine on the brick model 2, some of the light and shadow passes through the gaps between the brick models 2 and through the electric fireplace body 1, thus forming the shape of bricks on the surface of the electric fireplace body 1. This makes the flameless burning effect of the electric fireplace more three-dimensional. When dust remains on the surface of the electric fireplace body 1, the staff cleans the surface of the electric fireplace body 1 using the cleaning device 4.

[0029] Reference Figure 1-4As shown, the cleaning device 4 includes a water tank 41, which is fixedly connected to the top of the electric fireplace body 1. A water inlet pipe 42 is fixedly connected to one side of the water tank 41, and a U-shaped water spray pipe 43 is fixedly connected to one side of the water tank 41. A solenoid valve is provided at the connection between the water spray pipe 43 and the water tank 41, and several water spray holes are opened at the bottom of the water spray pipe 43. A moving plate 45 and a cylinder 44 are also included. The cylinder 44 is installed on one side of the water tank 41, and the output end of the cylinder 44 is fixedly connected to the moving plate 45. The moving plate 45 has a U-shaped cross-section, and three cleaning sponges 410 are installed on the moving plate 45 with the help of an auxiliary device 5.

The cleaning sponges 410 are in contact with the surface of the electric fireplace body 1. When the surface of the electric fireplace body 1 needs cleaning, the worker connects the external water pipe to the inlet pipe 42. Clean water enters the water tank 41 through the inlet pipe 42. At this time, the solenoid valve is opened, and the clean water in the water tank 41 enters the spray pipe 43 and is sprayed onto the surface of the electric fireplace body 1 through the spray hole at the bottom of the spray pipe 43. Then, the cylinder 44 is opened, and the cylinder 44 moves the moving plate 45 and the cleaning sponge 410. The cleaning sponge 410 wipes the surface of the electric fireplace body 1, achieving the effect of cleaning the surface of the electric fireplace body 1. The cleaning device 4 achieves the effect of cleaning the surface of the electric fireplace body 1, preventing dust from accumulating on the surface of the electric fireplace body 1 after long-term use, thus affecting the appearance of the electric fireplace body 1.

[0030] Reference Figure 1-4 As shown, the arc surface of the water spray pipe 43 is fitted with several fixed pipes 49, which are fixed to the surface of the electric fireplace body 1 by means of support rods. The fixed pipes 49 limit the movement of the water spray pipe 43, preventing it from shaking. A water collection tank 46 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the electric fireplace body 1, and a drain pipe 47 is fixedly connected to one side of the water collection tank 46, which is connected to a sewage pipe via a flange. When the cleaning sponge 410 cleans the surface of the electric fireplace body 1, the wastewater generated during cleaning drips into the water collection tank 46 and is discharged from the water collection tank 46 through the drain pipe 47 and the sewage pipe. Two limiting rods 48 slide through the surface of the movable plate 45. One end of the limiting rod 48 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the water collection tank 46, and the other end is fixedly connected to the water tank 41 by means of support plate. The limiting rods 48 restrict the movement direction of the movable plate 45, preventing it from shaking.

[0031] Reference Figure 1-4As shown, the auxiliary device 5 includes a mounting plate 51, which is fixedly connected to the cleaning sponge 410. Bolts 52 are threaded into both arms and the surface of the movable plate 45. Threaded holes 53 are provided on the mounting plate 51 corresponding to the bolts 52, with the bolts 52 and the threaded holes 53 being sized to match. When the cleaning sponge 410 needs to be installed, the operator moves the mounting plate 51 between the movable plate 45 and the electric fireplace body 1. The operator then rotates the bolts 52, which pass through the movable plate 45 and insert into the threaded holes 53 of the mounting plate 51, thus securing the cleaning sponge 410. When the cleaning sponge 410 needs to be removed, the operator rotates the bolts 52 in the opposite direction, removing them from the threaded holes 53 of the mounting plate 51.

[0033] Working principle: When the electric fireplace body 1 is in use, the LED light inside the light source 3 is powered on, and the LED light illuminates inside the electric fireplace body 1. The LED light shines on the rotating reflector, and dynamic light and shadow are formed through irregular refraction. When the light and shadow shine on the brick model 2, some of the light and shadow passes through the gaps between the brick models 2 and through the electric fireplace body 1, thus forming the shape of bricks on the surface of the electric fireplace body 1. This makes the flameless burning effect of the electric fireplace more three-dimensional. When dust remains on the surface of the electric fireplace body 1, the operator connects the external water pipe to the inlet water pipe 42. Clean water enters the water tank 41 through the inlet water pipe 42. At this time, the solenoid valve is opened, and the clean water in the water tank 41 enters the spray pipe 43 and is sprayed through the bottom of the spray pipe 43. The nozzle sprays onto the surface of the electric fireplace body 1. Then, the cylinder 44 is opened, and the cylinder 44 moves the moving plate 45 and the cleaning sponge 410. The limiting rod 48 on the moving plate 45 restricts the direction of movement of the moving plate 45, improving the stability of the movement of the moving plate 45. The cleaning sponge 410 wipes the surface of the electric fireplace body 1, achieving the effect of cleaning the surface of the electric fireplace body 1. The wastewater generated during cleaning drips into the water collection tank 46 and is discharged from the water collection tank 46 through the drain pipe 47 and the sewage pipe. The cleaning device 4 achieves the effect of cleaning the surface of the electric fireplace body 1, preventing dust from accumulating on the surface of the electric fireplace body 1 after long-term use, thus affecting the appearance of the electric fireplace body 1.

[0034] When the cleaning sponge 410 needs to be installed, the worker moves the mounting plate 51, which moves between the movable plate 45 and the electric fireplace body 1. The sliding plate 54 on the mounting plate 51 is inserted into the sliding groove 55 of the movable plate 45, thus restricting the movement direction of the mounting plate 51. When the threaded hole 53 of the mounting plate 51 moves to the position of the bolt 52, the worker rotates the bolt 52. The bolt 52 passes through the movable plate 45 and is inserted into the threaded hole 53 of the mounting plate 51, thus fixing the cleaning sponge 410. When the cleaning sponge 410 needs to be removed, the worker rotates the bolt 52 in the opposite direction, and the bolt 52 is removed from the threaded hole 53 of the mounting plate 51. Then, the worker can remove the mounting plate 51 and the cleaning sponge 410. The auxiliary device 5 achieves the effect of installing and removing the cleaning sponge 410, making it convenient to replace the cleaning sponge 410 when it gets dirty.
