Based on the structure in the present embodiment described above, the operation thereof will be described.
The first embodiment is as follows: simulating low-grade flames, i.e. fine-fire effects
Referring to fig. 8, the controller 62 controls the light-transmitting unit driving motor 61 to drive the light-transmitting unit 20 to rotate around the axis at a low speed, wherein the rotation speed is less than or equal to 8r/min, and the first light-emitting unit 321 with the largest distance from the inner bottom surface of the housing 10 is turned on. In a plane projected along the rotation axis direction of the light transmission unit 20, the light emitted by the first light emitter group 321 is projected onto the light transmission unit 20 according to the first incident light path 100 and then projected onto the projection plate 40 according to the first emergent light path 100'. Since only one first light emitter group 321 emits light, the light is dark, and the light transmission unit drives the motor 61 to rotate at a low speed, so that the projected light spot is gently changed, thereby simulating a soft and floating dark and thin fire effect.
Second embodiment, medium and low-grade flame simulation, namely medium and fine fire effect

The light emitted from the first light emitter group 231 is projected onto the light transmission unit 20 according to the first incident light path 100 and then projected onto the projection plate 40 according to the first emergent light path 100'. The light emitted from the second light emitting unit 322 is projected onto the light transmitting unit 20 according to the second incident light path 200 and then projected onto the projection plate 40 according to the second emergent light path 200'. Because the included angles between the first emergent light path 100 'and the second emergent light path 200' relative to the surface of the projection plate 40 are different, the light spots formed by the second emergent light path 200 'are above and partially overlapped with the light spots formed by the first emergent light path 100' on the surface of the projection plate 40.

The light emitted by the fourth light emitting device group 324 is projected onto the light transmitting unit 20 according to a fourth incident light path 400 and then projected onto the projection plate 40 according to a fourth emergent light path 400'. Because the included angles of the first outgoing light path 100 ', the second outgoing light path 200', the third outgoing light path 300 'and the fourth outgoing light path 400' with respect to the surface of the projection plate 40 are different, on the surface of the projection plate 40, the distances from the light spots formed by the fourth outgoing light path 400 ', the third outgoing light path 300', the second outgoing light path 200 'and the first outgoing light path 100' to the inner bottom surface of the housing 10 are sequentially decreased progressively and partially overlapped.

The first light emitter group 321, the second light emitter group 322, the third light emitter group 323 and the fourth light emitter group 324 are sequentially turned on in accordance with the change of the rotation speed. The light emitted by the first light emitter group 321, the second light emitter group 322, the third light emitter group 323 and the fourth light emitter group 324 enters the light transmission unit 20 and then is sequentially projected onto the projection plate 40, so that the gradual change effect of the fire from weak to strong is simulated.
Or, the controller 62 controls the light-transmitting unit driving motor 61 to rotate at a speed from fast to slow. The fourth light emitting group 324, the third light emitting group 323, the second light emitting group 322 and the first light emitting group 321 are turned off in sequence in accordance with the change of the rotation speed. The light spots formed by the fourth light emitting group 324, the third light emitting group 323, the second light emitting group 322 and the first light emitting group 321 disappear in sequence, so that a gradual change effect of the fire is simulated, wherein the fire is weakened from strong.
Compared with the prior art, the simulated electric fireplace and the gradual-change type flame simulation device thereof can simulate flames with different brightness, realize the gradual-change type dynamic effect of simulated flames and further improve the simulation degree of the flames. And the light spots obtained by projection jump at different speeds by matching with different rotating speeds of the light transmission units, so that the dynamic simulation effect is further improved. And the angle of the light entering the light transmission unit can be adjusted, so that the position of the light spot formed on the projection plate can be well controlled. The multiple luminous bodies are combined according to the required brightness, and can be matched with different rotating speeds of the light transmission units to obtain multiple flame dynamic effects.
