Definitions

  • the invention relates to an adjustable bottom tray, designed for the cylinder compartment of space heaters burning gaseous fuels, having a base section of the gas cylinder compartment incorporated in said heater.
  • Such an adjustable bottom tray is known from FR-A-1412499 in which the volume of the heater in packed condition is reduced by folding the whole bottom tray on to the front section of the heater.
  • the cylinder compartment is so designed as to accommodate cylinders of a maximum gas capacity of 26,2 liters for Turkey and of a size that will be determined according to the standards and requirements of countries in which the appliance is to be sold.
  • the adjustable bottom tray according to the invention is characterized by an articulation provided between at least two parts of said tray, one of which is a back part movable with respect to the other part and developed for the purpose of reducing the volume of the heater in the packed condition and deployed to increase the size for housing the gas cylinder before usage, the articulation is of the hinge or the pin type and further stabilisation means are provided beneath the other part for keeping the heater balanced.
  • the invention will provide cost savings in packaging, storage and transportation by reducing the sizes of the appliance, still complying with the requirements of the related standards of the countries in which the appliance is to be used.
  • the dimensions of the compartment will permit the easy introduction and removal of the cylinder for both situations.
  • the bottom tray must have sufficient mechanical strength to restist deformation under the load of a full cylinder and have a proper shape to position the cylinder vertically.
  • the system according to the invention plays a significant role in conservation of environment by reducing the use of plastic based packaging materials that should be used for the delivery of the appliance to the user. From the same point to view, lessening of the dimensions of packaging will decrease the needs of transportation and thus providing less consumption of fuels for transportion vehicles, and thus making a contribution to conservation of environment.
  • cylinder compartment and the bottom tray have the function of keeping the cylinder inside the appliance decoratively.
  • the bottom tray can not be smaller than the dimensions required in the standards to provide a balanced support for the cylinder.
  • Casing of the appliance can be manufactured less in depth than the bottom tray to save material (Fig.5).
  • the back part of the tray extending out from the casing limits the reduction of the packed size. Taking this into consideration ,it is envisaged that the bottom size of the bottom tray is to be reduced temporarily in the packed condition and then to be increased to the usage dimension with a simple action by the user before using the heater.
  • the movable back part is folded on or under the stationary front part in order to reduce the sizes of the appliance during packaging and later it is brought to its original position so that the cylinder can be placed inside the appliance during the usage.
  • the fixing of the two parts can be secured by using several types of fasteners, such as hinges, etc.
  • the movable back part which can rotate around its axis by the use of a suitable fastener is rotated to be positioned inside the stationary front part to reduce the size of the appliance during packaging (Fig.3c-3d) and it is brought to its enlarged position with the same method so that the cylinder can be placed inside the appliance during usage (Fig. 3a-3b).
  • the movable part is fixed to the stationary part by a suitable locking system to prevent its movement and to increase the rigidity of the bottom tray when the cylinder is to be placed during the usage.
  • the position of the castors on the both movable and stationary parts are so designed that they will be in best position with each other to balance the appliance in packaging and usage, and also extra supports can be used to balance the appliance in packaging if needed.
  • the invention which is developed for the bottom tray of the cylinder compartment incorporated in the mobile domestic flueless space heaters burning LPG, which works by folding, sliding forward or rotating in during packaging and by retracting, folding out or rotating out to its original position before usage in order to constitute a proper support surface for the LPG cylinder, can be rearranged or changed by experienced and well informed persons to abiding by the main principles mentioned above. It must be considered that the invention is not limited with the examples described in details and shown in the figures but instead includes any type of changes that is to be made based on the principles explained above.
