Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of outdoor stoves, and in particular to a folding gas stove structure. Background Technology
[0002] More and more people enjoy outdoor activities on weekends or holidays, making portable outdoor stoves an indispensable item for outdoor activities.
[0003] Existing outdoor stoves mainly include portable gas stoves and gas stoves. Portable gas stoves are relatively large in size, while gas stoves are generally fixed to the stove body by welding, making them bulky and inconvenient to carry and store. Therefore, improvements are needed. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing outdoor gas stoves, such as the large overall size of the stove due to the support legs being welded to the stove body, making them inconvenient to store and carry. It provides a new folding gas stove structure.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] A folding gas furnace structure includes a furnace body, a furnace plate, and multiple support legs circumferentially distributed on the outer side of the furnace body. It also includes a locking element and a fixing plate assembly. The fixing plate assembly is disposed on the furnace body and extends away from the furnace body. The support legs are rotatably disposed at the outer end of the fixing plate assembly via the locking element and rotate around the locking element towards or away from the furnace body and furnace plate. A follower element is rotatably disposed on the furnace body, and the follower element cooperates with the support legs to drive the multiple support legs to rotate synchronously.
[0007] The support legs can be in a folded state or an unfolded state with respect to the furnace body and furnace plate. In the folded state, the support legs rotate toward the furnace body and furnace plate and close up to the outside of the furnace body and furnace plate. In the unfolded state, the support legs rotate away from the furnace body and furnace plate and unfold outward.
[0008] The locking mechanism and the fixing plate assembly work together to allow the support legs to rotate around the locking mechanism toward or away from the furnace body, and can be folded at the furnace body, thereby reducing the overall volume of the gas furnace and making it easier to store or transport. The rotating mechanism allows pushing one of the support legs to drive the other support legs to unfold or fold at the furnace body and furnace plate simultaneously, improving the convenience of unfolding or folding the gas furnace.
[0009] Preferably, in the above-described folding gas furnace structure, the rotating component includes a connecting plate corresponding to each supporting leg. The connecting plate extends outward and has a limiting hole. The supporting leg is provided with a limiting post near the lower surface of the rotating component. The limiting post is inserted into the limiting hole and pushes the rotating component to rotate synchronously around the furnace body along the inner wall of the limiting hole. A connector is detachably provided at the lower end of the furnace body. The connector is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom. A rotating groove is formed between the lower end of the connector and the outer wall of the furnace body. The rotating component is sleeved on the outside of the furnace body and rotates around the furnace body within the rotating groove.
[0010] The rotating component is positioned at the furnace body via a connector, and the support foot is connected to the rotating component via a plug-in fit of a limiting post and a limiting hole. It has the advantages of simple structure and easy operation.
[0011] Preferably, in the folding gas furnace structure described above, the limiting hole is an oblong hole that extends along the length of the connecting plate.
[0012] The limiting hole is designed as an oblong hole, which makes it easy to insert the limiting post into the limiting hole. On the other hand, when the support foot is pushed to rotate, the limiting post can rotate slightly in the limiting hole along with the rotation of the support foot, which prevents the limiting post from interfering with the rotation of the supporting foot and affecting the rotation of the support foot.
[0013] Preferably, in the aforementioned folding gas furnace structure, the fixed plate assembly includes an upper plate and a lower plate sleeved on the outside of the furnace body. A sleeve is coaxially arranged on the furnace body. The upper plate, sleeve, and lower plate are distributed from top to bottom. The upper plate and lower plate are provided with upper extension plates and lower extension plates corresponding to the support feet. The upper extension plates and lower extension plates face each other and protrude outward in the horizontal direction. The support feet are fixed to the opposite outer surfaces of the upper extension plates and lower extension plates by locking members, and cooperate with the sleeve to clamp and limit the height of the upper plate and lower plate. The inner walls of the upper plate and lower plate are provided with positioning grooves. The upper and lower ends of the sleeve are provided with positioning blocks extending along the height direction of the sleeve. The positioning blocks are inserted into the positioning grooves and engaged.
[0014] The locking component, in conjunction with the sleeve, clamps and limits the height of the upper and lower plates, while the positioning block, in conjunction with the positioning groove, limits the horizontal direction of the upper and lower plates, thereby improving the stability and ease of assembling the fixed plate assembly on the furnace body. The upper and lower extension plates increase the distance between the furnace body and the support legs, further increasing the overall horizontal dimension range of the gas furnace after the support legs are extended, thus providing wider and more stable support for the cookware.
[0015] Preferably, in the folding gas furnace structure described above, the lower end of the supporting leg is provided with a horizontal supporting surface, the inner side of the supporting leg is provided with a first notch, and the outer side of the supporting leg is recessed inward to form a second notch. The second notch divides the outer side of the supporting leg into an upper plate and a lower plate. In the folded state, the upper plate is inserted into the first notch, the inner side of the supporting leg is inserted into the second notch, and the side wall of the upper plate is in contact with the inner wall of the first notch.
[0016] The horizontal support surface increases the area where the support legs land on the ground or tabletop, thus providing stable support for the cookware; the inner and outer sides of the support legs can be embedded in adjacent support legs through the first and second notches, further improving the tightness of the support legs when folded and retracted into the stove body.
[0017] Preferably, in the above-described folding gas furnace structure, the top of the supporting leg is higher than the top of the furnace plate. In the unfolded state, the supporting leg has an angle with the furnace body and the furnace plate, and encloses a gas-gathering space located outside the furnace body and the furnace plate.
[0018] The gas-gathering space can shield the area around the furnace plate, which is conducive to the complete combustion of the gas at the furnace plate.
[0019] Preferably, in the above-described folding gas furnace structure, the supporting legs are bent to form a folded portion. In the unfolded state, the folded portion forms an angle facing the furnace body and furnace plate, and encloses the gas gathering space.
[0020] The bending section improves the structural strength of the support leg itself, further enhancing the stability of the cookware support.
[0021] Preferably, in the folding gas furnace structure described above, the supporting legs are provided with a number of hollow holes.
[0022] The perforated design reduces the weight of the support legs, further lowering the overall weight of the gas stove and making it easier for users to move it. In the unfolded state, the support legs shield the stove body and burner plate while the perforated design facilitates the flow and exchange of gas within the gas-gathering space, resulting in more complete combustion of the gas at the burner plate.
[0023] Preferably, in the folding gas furnace structure described above, the locking element is a male and female pin, and the top of the support leg is provided with a supporting rack extending along the length direction of the support leg.
[0024] The locking mechanism uses male and female pins, which improves the aesthetics of the support feet being fixed to the fixed plate assembly. By supporting the rack, the friction between the support feet and the bottom of the cookware is increased, further improving the stability of the support feet in supporting the cookware.

[0038] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 The present invention will be further described in detail with reference to specific embodiments, but these are not intended to limit the present invention: Example
[0039] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a folding gas furnace structure includes a furnace body 1, a furnace plate 2, and multiple support legs 3 circumferentially distributed on the outside of the furnace body 1. It also includes a locking member 4 and a fixing plate assembly 5. The fixing plate assembly 5 is disposed on the furnace body 1 and extends away from the furnace body 1. The support legs 3 are rotatably disposed on the outer end of the fixing plate assembly 5 through the locking member 4 and rotate around the locking member 4 in a direction closer to or away from the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2. A follower member 6 is rotatably disposed on the furnace body 1. The follower member 6 cooperates with the support legs 3 and drives the multiple support legs 3 to rotate synchronously.
[0040] The support leg 3 has a folded state and an unfolded state with respect to the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2. When it is in the folded state, the support leg 3 rotates towards the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2 and surrounds and gathers outside the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2. When it is in the unfolded state, the support leg 3 rotates away from the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2 and unfolds outward.
[0041] Preferably, the rotating component 6 includes a connecting plate 61 corresponding to the supporting foot 3. The connecting plate 61 extends outward and has a limiting hole 610. The supporting foot 3 is provided with a limiting post 30 near the lower surface of the rotating component 6. The limiting post 30 is inserted into the limiting hole 610 and pushes the rotating component 6 to rotate synchronously around the furnace body 1 along the inner wall of the limiting hole 610. A connector 11 is detachably provided at the lower end of the furnace body 1. The connector 11 is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. A rotating groove 111 is formed between the lower end of the connector 11 and the outer wall of the furnace body 1. The rotating component 6 is sleeved on the outside of the furnace body 1 and rotates around the furnace body 1 in the rotating groove 111.
[0042] Preferably, the limiting hole 610 is an oblong hole, and the limiting hole 610 extends along the length direction of the connecting plate 61.
[0043] Preferably, the fixed plate assembly 5 includes an upper plate 51 and a lower plate 52 sleeved on the outside of the furnace body 1. A sleeve 7 is coaxially arranged on the furnace body 1. The upper plate 51, sleeve 7, and lower plate 52 are distributed from top to bottom. The upper plate 51 and lower plate 52 are provided with upper extension plates 511 and lower extension plates 521 corresponding to the support feet 3. The upper extension plates 511 and lower extension plates 521 face each other and protrude outward in the horizontal direction. The support feet 3 are fixed to the opposite outer surfaces of the upper extension plates 511 and lower extension plates 521 by locking members 4, and cooperate with the sleeve 7 to clamp and limit the height of the upper plate 51 and lower plate 52. The inner walls of the upper plate 51 and lower plate 52 are provided with positioning grooves 53. The upper and lower ends of the sleeve 7 are provided with positioning blocks 71 extending along the height direction of the sleeve 7. The positioning blocks 71 are inserted into the positioning grooves 53 and are engaged.
[0044] Preferably, the lower end of the support leg 3 is provided with a horizontal support surface 300, the inner side of the support leg 3 is provided with a first notch 8, and the outer side of the support leg 3 is recessed inward to form a second notch 81. The second notch 81 divides the outer side of the support leg 3 into an upper plate 301 and a lower plate 302. In the folded state, the upper plate 301 is inserted into the first notch 8, the inner side of the support leg 3 is inserted into the second notch 81, and the side wall of the upper plate 301 is in contact with the inner wall of the first notch 8.
[0045] Preferably, the top of the support leg 3 is higher than the top of the furnace plate 2. In the unfolded state, there is an angle between the support leg 3 and the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2, and they enclose and form a gas-gathering space 9 located outside the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2.
[0046] Preferably, the support leg 3 is bent to form a bend 31. In the unfolded state, the bend 31 forms a bend angle toward the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2, and encloses the gas gathering space 9.
[0047] As a preferred option, the support foot 3 has several hollow holes 32.
[0048] Preferably, the locking element 4 is a male and female pin, and the top of the support leg 3 is provided with a supporting rack 33 extending along the length direction of the support leg 3.
[0049] Specifically, the number of support feet 3 is set to three and distributed circumferentially on the sides of the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2. The number of bends formed by the bending part 31 can be increased or decreased according to the actual situation. In this embodiment, the bending part 31 includes a first bend, a second bend and a third bend distributed from the inside to the outside. The bending part 31 makes the support foot 3 as a whole butterfly shape.
[0050] The support leg 3 is rotatably connected to the fixed plate assembly 5 via the locking member 4 and rotates towards or away from the furnace body 1 with the locking member 4 as the axis of rotation. Multiple support legs 3 can rotate synchronously via the follower 6, thereby enabling the support leg 3 to quickly switch between folded and unfolded states.
[0051] When the gas furnace needs to be folded, stored, and transported, one of the support legs 3 is rotated towards the furnace body 1. At this time, the remaining support legs 3 rotate synchronously via the rotating component 6. When the support leg 3 rotates until the upper plate 301 is inserted into the first notch 8, the inner side of the support leg 3 is inserted into the second notch 81, and the side wall of the upper plate 301 is in contact with the inner wall of the first notch 8, the three support legs 3 can be folded together to the side of the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2. In addition, depending on the size of the support leg 3, the outer end of the support leg 3 can overlap the inner end of the adjacent support leg 3 in the folded state, with the outer end of the support leg 3 either connected to or spaced apart from the inner end of the adjacent support leg 3.
[0052] In this embodiment, when the three support legs 3 are in a folded state, the multiple bends formed by the bending part 31, together with the first notch 8 and the second notch 81, allow the support legs 3 to be partially embedded and folded around the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2, forming a hexagon around the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2. This effectively shields the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2, improving the tightness of the folding of the support legs 3 around the furnace body 1 and the furnace plate 2, and making it convenient for users to move, carry or store the gas stove.
[0053] When the gas stove is to be used, simply rotate the support leg 3 away from the stove body 1. At this time, the bending formed by the bending part 31, together with the supporting rack 33 and the horizontal support surface 300, can stably support the cookware. Through the gas gathering space 9 and the hollow hole 32, the gas at the stove plate 2 can be in a good combustion state, so that the gas at the stove plate 2 can be fully burned.
[0054] More specifically, the inner end of the support leg 3 is integrally formed with a snap-fit part. The upper and lower ends of the snap-fit part are bent in the horizontal direction towards the furnace body 1 to form an upper snap-fit plate and a lower snap-fit plate. The upper snap-fit plate and the lower snap-fit plate are fixed to the upper surface of the upper extension plate 511 and the lower surface of the lower extension plate 521 by locking member 4. The upper snap-fit plate and the lower snap-fit plate, together with the sleeve 7, can clamp and limit the height of the upper plate 51 and the lower plate 52, thereby pressing the upper plate 51 and the lower plate 52 tightly on the upper and lower ends of the sleeve 7.
[0055] The upper plate 51 and the lower plate 52 have through holes at their center for the furnace body 1 to pass through. The inner wall of the through hole is provided with a positioning groove 53. The upper and lower ends of the sleeve 7 are integrally formed with positioning blocks 71 extending along the height direction of the sleeve 7. The positioning blocks 71 are inserted into the positioning grooves 53 and engaged. Thus, the horizontal direction of the upper plate 51 and the lower plate 52 can be limited by the engagement of the positioning blocks 71 and the positioning grooves 53.
[0056] In this embodiment, the number of positioning blocks 71 and positioning grooves 53 is set to three, and the number of positioning blocks 71 and positioning grooves 53 can be increased or decreased according to the size of the through hole.
[0057] The locking element 4 is a male and female pin, which not only improves the aesthetics of the connection between the support leg 3 and the fixed plate assembly 5, but also improves the stability of the support leg 3 rotating around the locking element 4. In use, the upper extension plate 511 and the lower extension plate 521 increase the distance between the furnace body 1 and the support leg 3, further increasing the overall size range of the gas furnace in the horizontal direction after the support leg 3 is unfolded, thus enabling wider and more stable support for the cookware.
[0058] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown in the embodiment of this application, the upper end of the connector 11 is inserted into the bottom end of the furnace body 1 and fixed to the furnace body 1 with screws. The width of the lower end of the connector 11 is greater than the width of the furnace body 1, thereby forming a rotating groove 111 between the bottom end of the furnace body 1 and the upper side wall and the lower upper surface of the connector 11. This allows the rotating component 6 to be conveniently assembled into the furnace body 1 in conjunction with the rotating groove 111, facilitating the replacement of the rotating component 6.
[0059] In summary, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the patent application of the present utility model shall be covered by the present utility model.
