Description

A charcoal igniter Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of charcoal ignition devices, in particular to a charcoal igniter. Background Art

[0002] The common way to ignite the charcoal for charcoal barbecue is to use various chemicals placed at the bottom of the charcoal to burn or to use various flammable materials placed at the bottom of the charcoal to burn to ignite the charcoal. For example, there are many charcoal lighters on the market, which use solid alcohol or newspaper to ignite the built-in carbon under the lighter, or use a handheld hot air gun to ignite the charcoal.

[0003] Current charcoal fire lighters require a long wait time when placing flammable materials at the bottom to burn and ignite the charcoal, and a large amount of smoke is generated during the ignition process, or require electric heating to ignite, which is not only limited to the use site but also more likely to cause safety problems. Alternatively, chemical fuels are poured into the charcoal for ignition, which is less safe and not environmentally friendly, and cannot meet the growing usage needs of users.

[0004] Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the utility model aims to provide a charcoal igniter.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows: a charcoal igniter, comprising:

[0007] The charcoal combustion cylinder is an open cylindrical structure with a charcoal tray fixedly installed at the lower end of the interior of the charcoal combustion cylinder;

[0008] The ignition material combustion disk is arranged at the bottom of the charcoal combustion cylinder. The inside of the ignition material combustion disk is provided with a fuel layer, an air compression layer, and a power layer in sequence from top to bottom. An air duct is provided through the middle between the air compression layer and the power layer. A turbine fan is fixedly installed on one side of the power layer, and the output end of the turbine fan is connected to the lower end of the air duct.

[0009] Through the above technical solution, the charcoal to be ignited is placed on the upper surface of the charcoal tray, the igniter is placed inside the fuel layer and ignited, and after the igniter is ignited, the igniter combustion tray is placed at the bottom of the charcoal combustion tube. At this time, the turbine fan works to generate wind force that enters the air compression layer through the air duct, compresses the air through the air compression layer and sends the compressed air into the fuel layer, providing it to the igniter for rapid combustion, and further sprays the burning high-temperature gas upward into the charcoal combustion tube to ignite the charcoal.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, an ignition support plate is integrally provided at the bottom of the fuel layer, and a plurality of injection holes are provided on the upper surface of the ignition support plate.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, the igniter is supported by the igniter support plate, and the compressed air contacts the igniter through the injection holes.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, a metal spacer is welded inside the air compression layer. The metal spacer is a spiral structure and is arranged in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction.

[0013] Through the above technical solution, the turbine fan quickly injects air into the air compression layer. The high-speed air is rotated and compressed along the metal partition of the air compression layer. When it reaches the end of the metal partition, the air will block this rotation in the forward direction and be ejected through the injection hole at the bottom of the fuel layer at the top of the air compression layer. As a result, the ejected air will be extremely high-speed and rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, thereby making the combustion more complete.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, a heat insulation board is provided at the bottom of the air compression layer.

[0015] Through the above technical solution, the heat generated by the combustion of the fuel layer is isolated by arranging a heat insulation plate, thereby protecting electronic equipment such as the turbine fan.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, a circuit control power supply is fixedly installed on the other side of the power layer, and the circuit control power supply is electrically connected to the turbine blower.

[0017] Through the above technical solution, by setting up a circuit control power supply, on the one hand, the turbine blower can be powered, and on the other hand, the switch and speed of the turbine blower can be controlled, and the air injection speed can be freely controlled, thereby controlling the fire power of the ignition material.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, a carrying handle is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of one side of the charcoal combustion cylinder by bolts.

[0019] With the above technical solution, the device can be easily moved and carried by providing a carrying handle.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment, an anti-scalding plate is fixedly mounted on one end of the carrying handle close to the outer wall of the charcoal combustion cylinder.

[0021] Through the above technical solution, the anti-scalding plate is provided to prevent the user's hands from directly contacting the outer wall of the charcoal combustion cylinder, which can effectively prevent the user from being scalded.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of air inlet holes are provided on the outer wall of the ignition material combustion disk.

[0023] Through the above technical solution, external air enters the interior of the ignition material combustion disk through the air inlet hole.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the ignition combustion disk can be in a barrel or disk shape as required.

[0025] Through the above technical solution, more ignition materials, such as paper, wood chips, etc., can be placed in the barrel when it is packed, and using a disc-shaped ignition tray can use solid alcohol fuel.

[0026] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0027] 1. The turbine fan is used to generate wind that enters the fuel layer in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction to assist combustion, so there will not be a large amount of incomplete combustion products. Moreover, since the air enters in a rotating jet manner, very little smoke is generated, which is safer and more environmentally friendly.

[0028] 2. Due to the large amount of air supporting combustion, the combustion-supporting materials in the fuel chamber can burn quickly and completely, and a large amount of high-temperature gas will be generated. It will rotate upward rapidly with the jet air to ignite the charcoal in the charcoal combustion chamber above, so as to achieve the purpose of quickly igniting the charcoal and have higher combustion efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] A charcoal igniter according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to Figures 1-4.

[0036] A charcoal lighter includes a charcoal combustion cylinder 1, which is a cylindrical structure with an upper opening. A charcoal tray 101 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the charcoal combustion cylinder 1. The charcoal to be ignited is placed on the upper surface of the charcoal tray 101. A carrying handle 102 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of one side of the charcoal combustion cylinder 1 by bolts. The carrying handle 102 is provided to facilitate the movement and carrying of the device. An anti-scalding plate 103 is fixedly installed on one end of the carrying handle 102 near the outer wall of the charcoal combustion cylinder 1.

[0037] The ignition material combustion tray 2 is provided at the bottom of the charcoal combustion tube 1. The outer wall of the ignition material combustion tray 2 is provided with a plurality of air inlet holes. External air enters the interior of the ignition material combustion tray 2 through the air inlet holes. The ignition material combustion tray 2 can be in a barrel or disc shape as needed. When it is barreled, more ignition materials such as paper, wood chips, etc. can be placed. When a disc-shaped ignition material tray is used, solid alcohol fuel can be used. A fuel layer 201, an air compression layer 202, and a power layer 204 are sequentially provided in the ignition material combustion tray 2 from top to bottom. An ignition material support plate 209 is integrally provided at the bottom of the fuel layer 201. A plurality of injection holes 210 are provided on the upper surface of the ignition material support plate 209. The ignition material is supported by the ignition material support plate 209. At the same time, the compressed air contacts the ignition material through the injection holes 210.

[0038] A metal diaphragm 211 is welded inside the air compression layer 202. The metal diaphragm 211 is a spiral structure and is arranged in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. The turbine blower quickly injects air into the air compression layer 202. The high-speed air is rotated and compressed along the metal diaphragm 211 of the air compression layer 202. When the air reaches the end of the metal diaphragm 211, the air blocks this rotation due to the forward direction and is ejected through the injection hole 210 at the bottom of the fuel layer at the top of the air compression layer 202. As a result, the ejected air will be extremely high-speed and rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, thereby ensuring more complete combustion.

[0039] An air duct is provided through the middle between the air compression layer 202 and the power layer 204. A turbine fan 206 is fixedly installed on one side of the power layer 204. The output end of the turbine fan 206 is connected to the lower end of the air duct. The heat generated by the combustion of the fuel layer 201 is isolated by providing a heat insulation plate, thereby protecting electronic equipment such as the turbine fan. A circuit control power supply 207 is fixedly installed on the other side of the power layer 204. The circuit control power supply 207 is electrically connected to the turbine fan 206. By providing the circuit control power supply 207, on the one hand, power is supplied to the turbine fan 206, and on the other hand, the switch and speed of the turbine fan 206 can be controlled, and the air injection speed can be freely controlled, thereby controlling the fire power of the ignition material.

[0040] Place the charcoal to be ignited on the upper surface of the charcoal tray 101, place the igniter inside the fuel layer 201 and ignite it. After the igniter is ignited, place the igniter combustion tray 2 at the bottom of the charcoal combustion tube 1. At this time, the turbine fan 206 works to generate wind force and enters the air compression layer 202 through the air duct. The high-speed air is rotated and compressed along the metal partition 211 of the air compression layer 202. At the end of the metal partition 211, the air will block this rotation in the forward direction and be ejected through the injection hole 210 at the bottom of the fuel layer at the top of the air compression layer 202. As a result, the ejected air will be particularly high-speed and rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, thereby making the combustion more complete, and further continue to eject the burning high-temperature gas upward into the charcoal combustion tube 1 to ignite the charcoal, so as to achieve the purpose of quickly igniting the charcoal.

[0041] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments can still be modified, or some of the technical features thereof can be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention.
