Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heater technology, and in particular to a fireplace simulation heater. Background Technology

[0002] A fireplace simulator heater is an electric heater that mimics the appearance and function of a traditional fireplace, primarily used for home heating and creating a cozy indoor atmosphere. These heaters are typically electrically powered, using electric heating elements to generate heat, while simultaneously employing lighting and design effects to simulate the flames of a fireplace, providing a realistic fireplace heating experience.

[0003] Existing fireplace simulation heaters all have ventilation holes on the top of the casing to allow the heated airflow to rise smoothly. However, while this upward-facing ventilation hole design facilitates heat dissipation, it also allows dust from the air to enter the heater when it is not in use, which can easily cause malfunctions and, in severe cases, shorten the heater's lifespan. Therefore, a fireplace simulation heater with dustproof function is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fireplace simulation heater to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fireplace simulation heater, comprising:

[0006] The heater body has a hot air vent at its top.

[0007] The exhaust assembly includes an exhaust plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side of the hot air passage and a shielding plate movably stacked to the top of the exhaust plate. Both the exhaust plate and the shielding plate are provided with multiple sets of vent holes at intervals. The shielding plate can move horizontally along the axial direction of the hot air passage, so that the positions of the vent holes on the exhaust plate and the shielding plate are staggered to form a blockage of the hot air passage.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom length of the hot air vent is less than its top length and is adapted to the length of the exhaust plate, so that the shielding plate can be moved horizontally at the top position of the hot air vent.

[0009] Preferably, multiple baffles are fixedly connected at parallel intervals at the top of the heater body and above the hot air vent, and the same set of vent holes on the exhaust plate are located between two adjacent baffles.

[0011] Preferably, the locking element includes:

[0012] The outer casing is fixedly connected to the hot air vent at the top of the heater body;

[0013] A connecting plate is slidably inserted into the bottom of the outer shell. One side of the connecting plate extends to be fixedly connected to the top edge of the shielding plate, and the other end of the connecting plate passes through the side wall of the outer shell and bends upward to extend to the top of the outer shell.

[0014] Preferably, the locking element further includes:

[0015] A spring baffle is slidably connected to the inside of the outer shell and fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting plate. An elastic compression spring is fixedly connected between the spring baffle and the inner wall of the outer shell on the side away from the shielding plate.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0022] This invention features an exhaust assembly installed at the hot air vent at the top of the heater body. A shielding plate within the exhaust assembly can slide horizontally across the top of the hot air vent. Multiple sets of vent holes, arranged in the same specifications as the exhaust plate and shielding plate, are positioned so that the vent holes on the shielding plate overlap or stagger with those on the exhaust plate.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1-4 The image shows a fireplace simulation heater.

[0030] Example 1: Includes a heater body 100 and an exhaust assembly. The heater body 100 has a hot air vent 104 at its top. The exhaust assembly includes an exhaust plate 105 fixedly connected to the bottom inner side of the hot air vent 104 and a shielding plate 106 movably stacked to the top of the exhaust plate 105. Multiple sets of vent holes 107 are spaced apart on both the exhaust plate 105 and the shielding plate 106. The shielding plate 106 can move horizontally along the axial direction of the hot air vent 104, causing the vent holes 107 on the exhaust plate 105 and the shielding plate 106 to be staggered, thus blocking the hot air vent 104. The bottom length of the hot air vent 104 is shorter than its top length and matches the length of the exhaust plate 105, allowing the shielding plate 106 to move horizontally at the top position of the hot air vent 104, thereby satisfying the needs of the heater. By sealing the bottom opening of the hot air passage 104 with the exhaust plate 105, the hot air inside the heater body 100 can only be discharged upward through the vent 107 on the exhaust plate 105. By setting the vent 107 on the shielding plate 106 with the same specifications as the exhaust plate 105, and by moving the shielding plate 106 along the surface of the exhaust plate 105 at the top of the hot air passage 104, the vent 107 on the exhaust plate 105 and the shielding plate 106 can form an interlocking shape to achieve a mutual sealing effect. In this way, the hot air passage 104 on the heater body 100 can be completely sealed, so that when the heater body 100 is in a stopped state, dust and other impurities in the outside air can be prevented from entering the interior of the heater body 100.

[0031] Furthermore, multiple baffles 108 are fixedly connected at parallel intervals at the top of the heater body 100 and above the hot air vent 104. The same set of vent holes 107 on the exhaust plate 105 are located between two adjacent baffles 108. The baffles 108 can block the vent holes 107 on the shielding plate 106 when it is in the closed position, thus ensuring that the vents on the shielding plate 106 are open when the heater body 100 is in the retracted state. The hole 107 can be blocked by the baffle 108 to prevent dust from entering. This prevents dust from accumulating in the vent hole 107 on the baffle plate 106, thus avoiding the drawback of dust entering the heater body 100 when the vent holes 107 on the baffle plate 106 and the exhaust plate 105 overlap. A locking member 200 is provided between one side of the baffle plate 106 and the top of the heater body 100. The locking member 200 is used to limit the baffle plate 106 at the horizontal position at the top of the hot air vent 104. By locking the baffle plate 106 in the hot air vent 104, the stability of the baffle plate 106 in the use and storage positions can be ensured, and the position of the baffle plate 106 can be prevented from shifting when the heater body 100 is in use or stored, thus affecting the quality of use.

[0032] The locking component 200 includes an outer shell 201, which is fixedly connected to one side of the hot air vent 104 at the top of the heater body 100. A connecting plate 202 is slidably inserted into the bottom of the outer shell 201. One side of the connecting plate 202 extends to be fixedly connected to the top edge of the shielding plate 106, and the other end of the connecting plate 202 passes through the side wall of the outer shell 201 and bends upward to extend above the outer shell 201. A spring baffle 203 is slidably connected inside the outer shell 201 and fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting plate 202. An elastic spring 204 is fixedly connected between the baffle 203 and the inner wall of the outer shell 201 on the side away from the shielding plate 106. An elastic protrusion 206 is movably inserted into the top of the connecting plate 202 near the outer shell 201. A push-down button 205 is slidably inserted into the top of the outer shell 201, and the push-down button 205 is connected to the inner wall of the outer shell 201. In specific operation, the user manually moves the protrusion at the end of the connecting plate 202 and pulls it horizontally, causing the connecting plate 202 to retract into the outer shell 201 through the pulling force, while simultaneously driving the shielding plate 106. 6. The plate moves horizontally within the hot air vent 104, causing the vent 107 on the shielding plate 106 to move to the back of the baffle 108, intersecting with the vent 107 on the exhaust plate 105, thereby blocking the hot air vent 104. Simultaneously, the elastic protrusion 206 on the connecting plate 202 enters the position below the press button 205 inside the outer casing 201. Due to the elastic support on the elastic protrusion 206, the elastic protrusion 206 can automatically spring up and insert into the end of the press button 205 that has disengaged. This locks the position of the connecting plate 202. When unlocking is needed, simply press the down button 205 to press down the elastic protrusion 206. After the elastic protrusion 206 descends and exits, the connecting plate 202 automatically extends outward by the elastic thrust provided by the elastic spring 204, allowing the shielding plate 106 to move back and coincide with the vent hole 107 on the exhaust plate 105. In this way, the hot air inside the heater body 100 can be discharged after aligning the vent hole 107 on the exhaust plate 105 and the shielding plate 106.

[0033] Example 2: This example further illustrates that, based on Example 1, the heater body 100 has a detachable front cover 101 connected to its front side, and carrying ear sleeves 110 are fixedly embedded on both sides of the top of the heater body 100. The heater body 100 is equipped with an installation component. The front cover 101 is made of transparent plastic or transparent glass, allowing users to see the flame-like light inside the heater body 100. The carrying ear sleeves 110 facilitate users in moving the heater body 100. Together with the installation component, the heater body 100 can be conveniently installed.

[0034] The installation components include a wall mount 103 and A-frame legs 102. Two wall mounts 103 are symmetrically fixed to the back of the heater body 100. The top and bottom of the wall mounts 103 are provided with hanging holes 109. Two A-frame legs 102 are symmetrically fixed to the bottom of the heater body 100. The A-frame legs 102 provide support for the heater body 100, allowing the heater body 100 to be placed directly on the ground. The A-frame legs 102 provide stable support for the heater body 100. At the same time, together with the wall mounts 103 with hanging holes 109, the heater body 100 can be suspended on the wall by the wall mounts 103, increasing the installation methods of the heater body 100 and meeting diverse usage needs.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
