Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the artificial simulation of a fire.
  • a device for the artificial simulation of a fire in particular designates an artificial open fire that can be inserted into the fireplace of an open fireplace if fire regulations and / or environmental laws no longer allow the operation of open fireplaces or the user of such a fireplace uses an artificial fire instead of one preferred open fire in his room.
  • a device known from GB Patent 2 240 171 has a housing in which an artificial fuel bed and moving, in particular strip-like, tongue-like or lobe-like flame simulation elements are provided for fire simulation, in the viewing area.
  • the fuel bed and the flame simulation elements are illuminated by at least one light source within the housing.
  • the flap-like flame simulation elements are arranged in the upper region of a housing and are illuminated from below.
  • a blower is provided which flows against the elements in their longitudinal direction and thereby ensures a flickering flutter movement.
  • the image of these fluttering tongues is reflected over translucent or transparent glass panes, so that the image of the fluttering tongues appears to come out of the fuel bed.
  • This known device is disadvantageous in that the flame simulation can only produce a fairly one-sided and unrealistic image.
  • the invention has for its object to develop a device with the features of the preamble of claim 1 such that the flame simulation appears more lively, versatile and realistic.
  • This object is achieved in that the flame simulation elements are arranged on at least one moving, motor-driven carrier element.
  • Different motor drives are conceivable, for example a warm air motor, which can advantageously be used when the device is provided with a heating source. Hydraulic drives or winding motors with spring or weight winding are also possible.
  • the carrier element can be designed in the manner of a rotating roller. Such a device is easy to manufacture and to drive.
  • the flame simulation elements will lie on the surface of the roller in the upper region of the rotating roller and then be pulled by the force of gravity from the surface of the roller, so that they perform an abrupt movement. If this is superimposed on the observation image, a particularly vivid flame image is achieved.
  • the carrier element is also possible to design the carrier element as a circumferential band. As a result, the area of the carrier element is enlarged, so that more and different flame simulation elements can be arranged on the surface of the carrier element.
  • drum-like or wheel-like carrier elements on a motor-driven shaft or to support a plurality of drum-like or wheel-like carrier elements on one axis and to drive them separately or in groups.
  • the drive is not via the axis, but e.g. peripherally by motorized individual drives, which are arranged above or behind the carrier elements so that they are not reflected.
  • the carrier element in the manner of a rotating camshaft, so that the flame simulation elements are at different distances from the axis of rotation, which in turn results in different movement speeds of the flame simulation elements (depending on the distance from the axis of rotation).
  • a drum with different diameters in sections is also conceivable within the scope of the invention.
  • the carrier element is mounted on a shaft which is axially displaceable by a certain amount against spring force.
  • a cam drive can then be provided at one end of the shaft, which provides a reciprocating offset movement of the carrier element at different speeds or depending on a link guide.
  • the carrier element is provided with air outlet openings and a fan flows onto the inner region of the carrier element.
  • the motor drive can be connected to a random generator for speed variation, so that the carrier elements are driven slowly and then quickly again.
  • At least one reflecting element is arranged, preferably several reflecting inclined disks are located one above the other, which can also have different angles of inclination, so that a plurality of flame simulation elements are projected onto the fuel bed from different viewing angles.
  • Input elements can be provided for setting the speed or for programming the program control, such as, for example, program selector switches, speed controllers, brightness controllers and the like.
  • An improvement in the optical quality of the reflection is achieved by means of a diffuser disc which is arranged under the carrier element.
  • Figure 1 is a schematic sectional view through a first embodiment with a roller-shaped support member.
  • FIG. 2 shows a schematic sectional illustration through a further embodiment with a carrier element designed as a circumferential band
  • FIG. 3 shows a schematic plan view of a roller-like carrier element
  • Figure 4 is a schematic plan view of a band-like carrier element.
  • Fig. 5 is a schematic plan view of a carrier element, the manner of a
  • FIG. 6 shows a schematic view of a carrier element with a device for producing an oscillating reciprocating movement
  • Fig. 7 is a schematic plan view of a carrier element which is provided with air outlet openings.
  • the device 1 has a housing 2, in which an artificial fuel bed 3, moving flame simulation elements 5 reflected in the viewing area 4 and light sources 6, 7 for illuminating the fuel bed 3 and the flame simulation elements 5 are arranged for fire simulation.
  • a viewing window 9 On the front side 8 of the housing 2 there is a viewing window 9 which can be closed with a pane 10.
  • the flame simulation elements 5 which have the shape of tongue-like tabs, are arranged on a moving carrier element 11, which is designed in the manner of a rotating roller 12 and is mounted on a shaft 13, which rotates by a motor, not shown, i.e. is driven in the direction of arrow 14.
  • reflecting elements 16 in the form of a plurality of inclined disks 17 are provided , through which the flame simulation elements 5 are reflected.
  • the carrier element 11 is, however, a circulating belt 20, which is mounted on a plurality of rollers 21, one of which is motor-driven.
  • the drawing fig. 3-7 now show different embodiments of carrier elements.
  • the band 20 is mounted on the rollers 21.
  • the drive 19 drives one of the rollers 21.
  • a shaft 30 is provided on which eccentrically arranged cam elements 31 are located, on which in turn the flame simulation elements 5 are fastened.
  • the carrier element 11 according to the drawing. 6 largely corresponds to the carrier element 11 according to the drawing. 3.
  • the shaft 13 is laterally displaceable against spring force.
  • an eccentric motor 40 is provided which drives a non-circular link 41 which acts on the free cam end 42 of the shaft 13 and thereby causes the roller 12 to move in the direction of the arrow 43.
  • air outlet openings 50 are provided.
  • a blower 51 blows air into the inner region of the roller 12.
  • the air under excess pressure flows out of the air outlet openings 50 and sets the flame simulation elements 5 in a fluttering motion.
  • the air outlet openings 50 are arranged in the anchoring area of the flame simulation elements 5 and thus inevitably flow onto the flame simulation elements 5.
