Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a lantern-turning device that is attached to the chimney of a solid fuel combustor to enable the solid fuel combustor to function as a lantern, and to a solid fuel combustor that can be used as a lantern. [Background technology]

[0002] Small solid fuel combustors that use firewood or pellets as fuel are used in outdoor scenes as heating appliances that do not require electricity or gas. The solid fuel combustor exemplified in Patent Document 1 is portable and can be used as a thermal cooker to cook food. Therefore, such solid fuel combustors can be used not only for outdoor recreation such as camping, but also as disaster prevention supplies in emergencies.

[0003] The solid fuel burner disclosed in Patent Document 1 is an assembly type. Solid fuel is put into a fuel inlet tube attached to one end of the main body, and ignited from an ignition port provided in the wall on the fuel inlet tube side. As the solid fuel burns, the exhaust force of the chimney increases, and the gas generated from the solid fuel turns into a flame inside the main body and is exhausted through the chimney. The top lid of the main body is heated, so cooking can be done on top of the lid. Cooking can be done by placing a trivet, pot, and other cooking utensils on the chimney, which is in an upright position during combustion. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] JP 2015-036613 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, although the conventional solid fuel combustor exemplified in Patent Document 1 is useful as a heating device that does not require electricity or gas, in order to use it outdoors at night when there is no electricity or gas, a lighting device such as a lantern that uses fuel (gas or oil) or a battery is required. In other words, with a conventional solid fuel combustor, it is necessary to prepare the device itself, the lighting device, and the fuel for each, and carry them to the outdoor installation location.

[0006] The present invention aims to solve the problems associated with the conventional technology and to provide a lantern-turning device that enables a solid fuel combustor to be used as a lighting device, and a solid fuel combustor incorporating said lantern-turning device. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] In order to solve the above problems, the lantern-making device (1, 1a) of the present invention comprises a hollow lantern body (10) having a first surface portion (11) having a first opening (12), a second surface portion (21) having a second opening (22) and spaced apart from the first surface portion (11), and a side portion (25) connecting the periphery of the first surface portion (11) and the periphery of the second surface portion (21); and a first connection portion (30) for connecting a chimney (61) communicating with an external casing (11) (9) to the first surface portion (11) of the lantern body (10). When the lantern body (10) is connected to the chimney (61) via the first connection portion (30), the side portion (25) of the lantern body (10) is capable of radiating visible light emitted by a flame (63) generated in the solid fuel combustor (50) to the outside.

[0008] According to the lantern-making device of the present invention, at least a part of the area around the solid fuel burner can be illuminated with visible light. In other words, the solid fuel burner, which can be used as a heating device without electricity or gas, can be converted to be used as a lighting device. Therefore, it is not necessary to prepare a lighting device and the fuel for it, and to carry it to an outdoor location where the solid fuel burner is to be installed, so the lantern-making device of the present invention is useful as an outdoor item for camping, etc., and as a disaster prevention item in case of an emergency.

[0009] The lantern-making device (1, 1a) of the present invention further comprises a side portion (25) of the lantern body (10) that is at least partially made of a heat-resistant transparent or translucent material, so that the visible light emitted from the side portion (25) can illuminate at least half the circumference of the lantern body (10) in the lateral direction. By configuring it in this way, the lantern-making device of the present invention can convert a solid fuel burner so that multiple users can gather around the solid fuel burner and enjoy outdoor evening gatherings.

[0010] In the lantern device (1, 1a) of the present invention, the first connection portion (30) has a through hole penetrating from one end to the other end, the first opening (12) of the first surface portion (11) of the lantern body (10) is connected to one end of the through hole of the first connection portion (30), a smoke exhaust end portion (62) for exhausting smoke in the chimney (61) is connected to or inserted into the other end of the through hole of the first connection portion (30), and the first surface portion (11) of the lantern body (10) is connected to or inserted into the other end of the through hole of the first connection portion (30). ) has a connection area (13) with the one end of the first connection part (30) outside the first opening (12), has a ventilation area (14) with a ventilation hole (15) that allows outside air to flow into the lantern body (10) outside the connection area (13), and has a window support area (16) that supports a window part (28) made of a heat-resistant transparent or translucent material on the side part (25) outside the ventilation area (14). By configuring it in this way, the lantern device of the present invention can prevent soot and the like from adhering to the inner surface of the window part in the lantern body, since the outside air flowing in from the ventilation hole flows along the inner surface of the window part of the side part to the second side part.

[0011] The lantern-turned device (1, 1a) of the present invention further includes a second connection part (40) provided opposite the first connection part (30) across the lantern body (10), and the second connection part (40) has a through hole penetrating from one end to the other end, and one end of the through hole of the second connection part (40) can be connected to the second opening (22) of the second surface part (21) of the lantern body (10). By configuring it in this way, the lantern-turned device of the present invention can perform hot cooking by placing a pot or the like directly or through a trivet above the second connection part. In addition, since the pot or the like is placed away from the lantern body, the lantern body can be reduced from being soiled.

[0012] The lantern device (1a) of the present invention further includes an umbrella portion (80), the umbrella portion (80) having a cylindrical body (81) having a through hole extending from a tip portion (82) to a base portion (83), and an umbrella portion main body (84) having a through hole (87) in the center through which the cylindrical body (81) can pass and protruding outward from the side portion (25) of the lantern body (10), the base end (83) of the cylindrical body (81) being connected to the other end of the second connection portion (40), the tip portion (82) of the cylindrical body (81) being open, and the umbrella portion main body (84) being capable of being placed on the other end of the second connection portion (40) by fitting the through hole (87) of the umbrella portion main body (84) into the cylindrical body (81) connected to the other end of the second connection portion (40). By being configured in this manner, the lantern device of the present invention can reduce the risk of overflowing liquid getting onto the side of the lantern body when a pot or the like is placed on the tip of the cylindrical body of the umbrella portion directly or via a trivet and hot cooking is performed, even if the pot or the like boils over.

[0013] The solid fuel combustor (50) of the present invention is a solid fuel combustor (50) including a combustion chamber (59) in which a solid fuel (60) is burned, a fuel input section (53) for inputting the solid fuel (60) into the combustion chamber (59), and a chimney (61) extending from the combustion chamber (59) and having a smoke exhaust end (62) for exhausting smoke to the outside of the solid fuel combustor (50). The solid fuel combustor (50) further includes a lantern-making device (1, 1a) connected to the smoke exhaust end (62) of the chimney (61). The lantern-making device (1, 1a) includes a first surface portion (11) having a first opening (12), a second surface portion (11) spaced from the first surface portion (11), and a third surface portion (11) for receiving the first opening (12). The lantern body (10) is provided with a hollow columnar lantern having a second surface portion (21) having a second opening (22) and a side surface portion (25) connecting the periphery of the first surface portion (11) and the periphery of the second surface portion (21), at least a portion of which is made of a heat-resistant transparent or translucent material, and a first connection portion (30) for connecting the smoke exhaust end (62) of the chimney (61) to the first surface portion (11) side of the lantern body (10), wherein the side surface portion (25) of the lantern body (10) is capable of radiating visible light emitted by a flame (63) generated in the solid fuel combustor (50) to the outside.

[0014] According to the solid fuel combustor of the present invention, at least a part of the surroundings of the solid fuel combustor can be illuminated by the visible light emitted from the flame generated in the solid fuel combustor. In other words, the solid fuel combustor of the present invention can be used as a combined heater and lighting device that does not require electricity or gas. Therefore, the solid fuel combustor of the present invention is useful as an outdoor item for camping, etc., and as a disaster prevention item in case of emergency, since it is not necessary to prepare a lighting device and fuel for it and carry it to an outdoor location where the solid fuel combustor is to be installed.

[0015] The solid fuel combustor (50) of the present invention can be configured so that the first connection part (30) of the lantern-making device (1, 1a) is detachable from the smoke exhaust end part (62) of the chimney (61). By configuring it in this way, the solid fuel combustor of the present invention can connect the lantern-making device to the chimney at the installation site of the solid fuel combustor, and the risk of damaging the side part of the lantern body during transportation can be reduced. Effect of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0018] [First embodiment] 1 and 2 are a perspective view and a front view of a specific example of the lantern-making device according to the first embodiment of the present invention, and Fig. 3 is a front view of a specific example of a solid fuel combustor equipped with the lantern-making device according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

[0019] The lantern device 1 comprises a lantern body 10, a first connection part 30, and a second connection part 40. As shown in Fig. 3, the first connection part 30 is connected to a smoke exhaust end part 62 at the tip of a chimney 61. In order to use the solid fuel combustor 50 as a thermal cooker, a trivet 75 can be placed on the second connection part 40 (see Fig. 8), or a shade part 80 described in a second embodiment below can be connected (see Fig. 9). Each component of the lantern device 1 is described in detail below.

[0020] <Lantern body> As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the lantern body 10 is a hollow, approximately cube-shaped body having a bottom plate 11 (first surface), a top plate 21 (second surface) spaced apart from the bottom plate 11, and a side surface 25 connecting the periphery of the bottom plate 11 and the periphery of the top plate 21.

[0021] The side portion 25 has a frame body 27 having openings 26 in all four directions, and window portions 28 disposed in each opening 26. The side portion 25 is provided with the windows 28 in the all circumferential direction excluding the frame body 27 portion. The frame body 27 is made of steel, and has window portion insertion grooves (not shown) that support the sides of the window portions 28. The top plate 21 is detachably connected to the frame body 27.

[0022] The window section 28 is a plate-like body made of transparent or translucent heat-resistant glass. With the top plate 21 removed from the frame body 27, the window section 28 is inserted into a window section insertion groove (not shown) of the frame body 27, and is disposed inside the opening 26. The window section 28 is provided in the entire circumferential direction on the side surface section 25 except for the portion of the frame body 27, so that a user can spend the night outdoors, surrounded by the solid fuel combustor 50, keeping warm and illuminated by the light (visible light) emitted from inside the lantern body 10 through the window section 28.

[0023] The bottom plate 11 will be described with further reference to Fig. 4. The bottom plate 11 has an opening 12 (first opening) in the center. The opening 12 has approximately the same dimensions as a through hole (not shown) provided in the center of the first connection portion 30.

[0024] The bottom plate 11 further has a connection region 13 surrounding the opening 12. A base end 31 of the first connection part 30 is connected to the connection region 13. In Fig. 4, the connection region 13 is the region between the solid line indicating the edge of the opening 12 and the dashed line indicating the position of the outer edge of the first connection part 30.

[0025] The bottom plate 11 further has a ventilation area 14 surrounding the connection area 13. In the ventilation area 14, a plurality of slit-shaped ventilation holes 15 are provided so as to surround the connection area 13. In FIG. 4, the ventilation area 14 is an area between a dashed line indicating the position of the outer edge of the first connection part 30 and a two-dot chain line outside the dashed line. In the specific example shown in FIG. 4, a plurality of ventilation holes 15 (an inner ventilation hole group) are provided proximal to the connection area 13, and a plurality of ventilation holes 15 (an outer ventilation hole group) surrounding the inner ventilation hole group are provided. The ventilation area 14 is disposed so as to protrude from the base end part 31 of the first connection part 30. This allows the inside of the lantern body 10 to be fluidically connected to the outside through the ventilation holes 15. Only one of the inner ventilation hole group and the outer ventilation hole group may be provided. In addition, the ventilation holes 15 are not limited to those shown in FIG. 4, and various shapes may be adopted.

[0026] The bottom plate 11 further has a window support area 16 surrounding the ventilation area 14. A plurality of window supports 17 are protrudingly provided in the window support area 16. In FIG. 4, the window support area 16 is an area between the two-dot chain line indicating the outer edge of the ventilation area 14 and the solid line indicating the outer edge of the bottom plate. The window support 17 supports the window 28 arranged inside the opening 26 on the bottom plate 11. Since the window support area 16 is provided adjacent to the outer side of the ventilation area 14, the outside air (air) taken in from the ventilation hole 15 flows along the inner surface of the window 28 toward the top plate 21. The air flowing along the window 28 prevents soot from accumulating near the inner surface of the window 28 and assists the combustion of soot. This prevents soot from adhering to the window 28, and suppresses a decrease in the illuminance of visible light emitted through the window 28. In order to support the window 28 disposed inside the opening 26 on the bottom plate 11, a groove may be provided on the bottom plate 11 instead of the window support 17.

[0027] The top plate 21 will be described with further reference to FIG. 5. The top plate 21 has an opening 22 (second opening) in the center. A base end 41 of the second connection part 40 is connected to a connection area 23 surrounding the opening 22. In FIG. 5, the connection area 23 is an area between a solid line indicating the edge of the opening 22 and a dashed line indicating the position of the outer edge of the second connection part 40. The opening 22 has approximately the same dimensions as a through hole (not shown) provided in the center of the second connection part 40. In order to support the window part 28 arranged inside the opening 26 by the top plate 21, a window part support may be provided protruding from the top plate 21, or a groove part may be provided on the top plate 21.

[0028] <First connection part> The first connection part 30 has a through hole (not shown) provided in the center of the first connection part 30, a base end part 31 connected to the bottom plate 11 of the lantern body 10, and a chimney connection part 32 connected to the chimney 61 of the solid fuel combustor 50.

[0029] The through hole provided in the center of the first connecting part 30 opens at both ends of the first connecting part 30 and penetrates the base end part 31 and the chimney connecting part 32. This through hole has approximately the same dimensions as the opening 12 provided in the center of the bottom plate 11 of the lantern body 10.

[0030] The base end 31 has its base end connected to the connection area 13 of the bottom plate 11 of the lantern body 10, and the end opposite to the base end is common to the base end of the chimney connection part 32. In other words, the base end 31 is continuously connected to the chimney connection part 32. The cross-sectional dimension of the base end 31 gradually decreases from its base end toward the base end of the chimney connection part 32.

[0031] In the bottom plate 11, the ventilation area 14 and the window support area 16 are provided outside the connection area 13. Therefore, the ventilation area 14 and the window support area 16 are disposed so as to protrude from the base end portion 31. This allows the inside of the lantern body 10 to be fluidically connected to the outside of the lanternization device 1 through the ventilation hole 15.

[0032] The chimney connecting part 32 is continuously connected to the base end part 31 at its base end, and is configured so that a smoke exhaust end part 62 for exhausting smoke in the chimney 61 of the solid fuel combustor 50 can be inserted and removed from the end opposite the base end. The chimney connecting part 32 is provided with a locking screw 33 in at least one direction, so that the inserted chimney 61 can be detachably connected and fixed.

[0033] <Second connection part> The second connection part 40 has a through hole (not shown) provided in the center of the second connection part 40, a base end part 41 connected to the top plate 21 of the lantern body 10, and a tip end part 42 which is the end opposite to the base end part 41.

[0034] The through hole provided in the center of the second connecting part 40 opens at both ends of the second connecting part 40 and penetrates the base end 41 and the tip end 42. This through hole has approximately the same dimensions as the opening 22 provided in the center of the top plate 21 of the lantern body 10.

[0035] The base end of the base portion 41 is connected to the connection area 23 of the top plate 21 of the lantern body 10, and the end opposite to the base end is common to the base end of the tip portion 42. In other words, the base portion 41 is continuously connected to the tip portion 42. The cross-sectional dimension of the base portion 41 gradually decreases from the base end to the base end of the tip portion 42.

[0036] A trivet 75 can be placed directly on the tip portion 42 (see FIG. 8). The tip portion 42 is continuously connected to the base end 41 at its base end, and is configured so that a tubular body 81 (see FIG. 9) of an umbrella portion 80, which will be described in a second embodiment below, can be inserted and removed from the end opposite the base end. A locking screw 43 is provided in at least one direction on the tip portion 42, and the inserted tubular body 81 of the umbrella portion 80 can be detachably connected.

[0037] <Solid fuel combustor> A specific example of the solid fuel combustor will be described with reference to Figures 6 to 8. Figures 6 and 7 respectively show the solid fuel combustor before and after the lantern-making device 1 is attached. Also, Figure 8 shows an example of use of the solid fuel combustor with the lantern-making device attached.

[0038] The solid fuel combustor 50 comprises a base 51 and a hollow columnar body 52 erected on the base 51. The lower part of the hollow columnar body 52 functions as a combustion chamber 59, and the upper part functions as a chimney 61. By burning solid fuel 60 such as firewood or pellets in the combustion chamber 59, a flame 63 is generated in the solid fuel combustor 50, as shown in FIG.

[0039] The solid fuel combustor 50 further includes a cylindrical fuel input section 53 for inputting solid fuel 60 into the combustion chamber 59. The fuel input section 53 has a base end connected to the hollow columnar body 52 so as to extend obliquely upward from the combustion chamber 59. At least a portion of the solid fuel 60 input from an input port 54 provided at the tip of the fuel input section 53 reaches the combustion chamber 59. The fuel input section 53 is provided with a lid 55 supported by a hinge 56 so as to be able to open and close, and the combustion in the combustion chamber 59 can be quickly extinguished by closing the lid 55.

[0040] To improve the ease of transportation, the solid fuel combustor 50 further includes casters 57 provided on the base 51 and a handle 58 provided on the fuel input section 53. A user can easily transport the steel solid fuel combustor 50 by holding and pulling the handle 58.

[0041] In order to improve the convenience of installation, the solid fuel combustor 50 further includes a leg 65 pivotally supported by a leg support 66 provided on the lower surface of the fuel input section 53, and a chain 67 for adjusting the angle of the leg 65 with respect to the ground surface. One end of the chain 67 is fixed to the leg 65, and the other end is fixed near the base end of the fuel input section 53, so that the length can be adjusted. The leg 65 pivots about the leg support 66 according to the length of the chain 67. As a result, the angle of the leg 65 with respect to the ground surface increases when the length of the chain 67 is shortened, and decreases when the length of the chain 67 is lengthened. In the solid fuel combustor 50, the casters 57 and the leg 65 are in contact with the ground, but the angle of the leg 65 with respect to the ground surface can be adjusted according to the inclination of the installation location. By adjusting the angle of the leg 65 with respect to the ground surface, the solid fuel combustor 50 can be installed so that the hollow columnar body 52 stands upright.

[0042] Second Embodiment Fig. 9 is a front view of a specific example of a solid fuel combustor after the lantern-making device according to the second embodiment of the present invention is attached, Fig. 10 is a front view of a specific example of a shading part of the lantern-making device according to the second embodiment of the present invention, and Fig. 11 is an explanatory diagram of a shading part main body of the shading part.

[0043] As shown in Fig. 9, the second embodiment differs from the first embodiment only in that it has a shade part, and the other features are the same as the first embodiment. Explanation of the components common to the first embodiment will be omitted.

[0044] The lantern-making device 1a according to the second embodiment is obtained by adding an umbrella part 80 to the lantern-making device 1 according to the first embodiment. The umbrella part 80 includes a cylindrical body 81 and an umbrella part main body 84. The umbrella part 80 and the solid fuel combustor 50 to which the lantern-making device 1a having the umbrella part 80 is attached will be described with reference to Figs. 9 to 11.

[0045] The cylindrical body 81 has a tip end 82 as an open end, and a base end 83 that can be detachably connected to the second connecting part 40; that is, the cylindrical body 81 can be fixed by inserting the base end 83 into the tip end 42 of the second connecting part 40 and tightening the locking screw 43. Also, the cylindrical body 81 can be removed from the tip end 42 of the second connecting part 40 by loosening the locking screw 43.

[0046] The through hole extending from the tip 82 to the base 83 of the cylindrical body 81 is in fluid communication with the chimney 61 via the lantern body 10. Thus, heat, smoke, and / or flame from the combustion chamber 59 and / or chimney 61 reach the cylindrical body 81 via the lantern body 10 and are emitted from the tip 82. An object to be heated, such as a cooking utensil, can be heated by placing it on the tip 82 of the cylindrical body 81 directly or via a trivet of appropriate dimensions.

[0047] The umbrella main body 84 has a saucer portion 85, an outer edge portion 86 surrounding the saucer portion 85, and a through hole 87 provided in the center of the saucer portion 85. The dimensions of the through hole 87 are set so that the tubular body 81 can pass through it but the tip portion 42 of the second connecting part 40 cannot pass through it. Therefore, the umbrella main body 84 can be placed on the tip portion 42 of the second connecting part 40 when the through hole 87 is fitted into the tubular body 81 connected to the tip portion 42 of the second connecting part 40.

[0048] The saucer 85 is formed in a concave shape so that it can receive liquids that boil over from cooking utensils placed directly or via a trivet on the tip 82 of the cylindrical body 81. As shown in Fig. 9, the dimensions of the saucer 85 are larger than the dimensions of the top plate 21 of the lantern body 10, so that the lantern body 10 is prevented from being soiled by liquids received by the saucer 85.

[0049] The outer edge 86 of the umbrella body 84 is inclined diagonally downward at a low angle. As a result, as shown in Fig. 9, the solid fuel combustor 50 to which the umbrella body 80 is attached has an appearance similar to that of a normal lantern, which is expected to soothe the user. In addition, liquids that overflow into the receiving tray 85 run down the outer edge 86 to a location away from the lantern body 10, preventing the lantern body 10 from being soiled or damaged.
