Description
FURNACE PROTECTOR
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates, generally, to Furnace Protectors. More specifically, the invention relates to Furnace Protectors that are purposed to be used to protect selected components of a furnace.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Furnaces, in particular oil furnaces, have many parts and associated components that require protection from moving articles. This is because damage to such parts or components may lead to an environmentally unfriendly situation, such as an oil spill. Some parts may include the oil filter, carburettor, motor and electrical components. An associated component may include an oil barrel which may be attached to a furnace. tWoday's society for FurnaCe r PIrU toCC_t_lUrr_S
auC1%A1UU to 1 IICIC is a need III Ud~/ J I Furnace that can be mounted to a furnace assembly or an affiliated region wherein sensitive components can be protected. The prior art has attempted to address this need.
For example, Chinese Patent Application No. 2806464Y discloses a furnace protective device for coke furnaces comprising a door frame and protective plates for burning chamber, checker chamber and chute zone. The protective device has a reasonable structure, high strength, and provides good sealing effect and protection for the furnace body.
Canadian Patent No. 1,105,976 discloses an electric heater assembly, having electric resistance heating elements and refractory structure for supporting the electric resistance elements. The refractory structure includes flanges that serve as shielding for the heating elements from material which may fall from above in the furnace.
United States Patent No. 4,085,726 discloses an arrangement for protection against damage to electric motor lead wires during servicing of furnace components within the furnace cabinet. The invention contemplates the provision of an electrical junction box mounted on blower support plate and of a channel shaped raceway provided with means for holding the electrical leads along the channel.
Chinese Patent Application No. 201268676Y discloses a cover block for coke oven brace grooves. The cover blocks are connected and laid on the brace grooves so as to discharge the water deposited on the furnace top to prevent it from leaking into the furnace brace grooves.
Chinese Patent Application No. 2205534Y discloses a protector for working in front of a metallurgical furnace comprising three truckles, upstanding protective wall, armrest handles and other means to satisfy various needs of working in front of c a metallurgical furnace.
The prior art as of yet does not envisage or indeed teach a Furnace Protector that:
1. Provides protection of furnace parts and associated components that require protection from moving articles, while providing access to these parts / components;

As will be realized, the invention is capable of modifications in various obvious respects, all without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. Accordingly, the description should be regarded as illustrative in nature and not as restrictive.
As shown in Figure 1, the furnace protector 1 preferably comprises a cage framed 2 that is preferably made of Y2 inch angle iron and closed in with 1 inch square iron mesh on three lateral sides and the top. Optionally, the bottom may also be closed in with iron mesh. The use of a mesh-type cover that cages the frame provides visibility to component(s) 3 surrounded by the cage. Preferably the top comprises a hinged door 7 to provide access to the components surrounded by the cage. The furnace protector may be of variety of shapes and sizes, however, it is preferred that adapted to a size appropriate to encase at least one component 3 of the Furnace for which it is intended for. Figure 1 illustrates an embodiment that is rectangular in shape, however this should not be considered limiting.
The present invention is intended to protect furnace components such as carburettors, oil filters and the electrical components for all oil furnaces from being damaged accidentally with moving hard objects. It is therefore constructed and/or adapted to a size appropriate to encase at least one component of the Furnace for which it is intended for.
The present invention further comprises a means for mounting the caged frame in a position suitable to protect the component(s). For example, the caged frame may be secured to the floor and/or to the furnace with bolts and nuts, however, are not limited to such means. The frame may comprise tabs 4 whereby the bolts can go through. Bolts or other fasteners may be used to run through the angle iron. The present invention may also comprise leg members that may be used to stabilize the furnace protector upon mounting. The leg members may be bolted the ground. Optionally, the leg members may extend out in a substantially horizontal manner whereby they may be fastened to a structure such as a wall.
Other means for mounting the caged frame in a position suitable to protect the component(s) may be possible. In some embodiments the present invention may be bolted to the floor via bolt and tabs 4.
In operation, the furnace protector is positioned in a region wherein it encases a furnace component that needs protection and is then secured to the floor and/or to the furnace with a mounting means. Legs 5 may also be used to facilitate stabilization of the furnace protector when mounted. Optionally, the installation of the present invention is effected by a trained technician, whereby the installation may have to be inspected by an outside regulatory body.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the furnace protector 1 is intended and adapted for an associated component such as an oil barrel 6 which may be attached to a furnace. This embodiment is illustrated in Figure 2. The present invention may be intended to protect components such as shut-off valves and oil filters from being damaged accidentally with moving hard objects. It is therefore adapted to a size appropriate to encase at least one component of the Furnace for which it is intended for. Other embodiments may be adapted for protection of exposed mechanical and electrical components of fuel feeding part such as oil-fired hot water heaters.
The furnace protector can be readily adapted to the protection of any exposed mechanical device, particularly one with an external fuel feed.
While one (or more) embodiment(s) of this invention has (have) been illustrated in the accompanying drawings and described above, it will be evident to those skilled in the art that changes and modifications may be made therein without departing from the essence of this invention. All such modifications or variations are believed to be within the sphere and scope of the invention as defined by the claims appended hereto.
Furthermore, the features and elements of the embodiments described and illustrated may be combined providing other embodiments of the present invention.
The present invention is useful in a residential setting as compared to other developments more suited toward an industrial setting. It is useful for protecting exposed components of a furnace such as oil couplings and environmentally hazardous connections and components. It is also possible to be used for the protection for larger commercial heating devices. The present invention's simple design facilitates its use over a wide range of applications.
