Definitions

  • a boiler system which is an apparatus for heating and supplying hot water using oil, electricity, and gas, etc. as fuel, heats water up to predetermined temperature and supplies the hot water through a supply line so that the hot water heats an interior space and is then circulated by a circulation pump.
  • the boiler system heats interior air and supplies hot water at home, so it is in close connection with our life.
  • the configuration is used as a fireplace and a boiler system, but is not given any additional configuration, so spatial usability is low.
  • US patent application US4825849A discloses an outside air supply control apparatus for a fireplace comprising cylindrical pipes.
  • a cover having a knob and opening and closing the hot air outlet may be disposed in the hot air outlet, and a gauze-like grill connected to the cover may be further disposed at a lower portion in the hot air outlet.
  • An intake fan forcibly sucking interior air may be disposed in the hot air inlets.
  • a freeze protection electric heater may be further disposed in the main combustion chamber and may be electrically connected to a temperature sensor for detecting the temperature at the outdoor side where the main combustion chamber is disposed and a freezing-bursting sensor for operating or stopping the freeze protection electric heater in cooperation with the temperature sensor.
  • the main combustion chamber 10 is disposed at an outdoor side 1, has a first combustion chamber 12 and a second combustion chamber 13 separated by a stoker 11 therein, and has a stove pipe 14 connected to the top of the main combustion chamber 10 at the outdoor side and an air adjuster 15 coupled to a lower end of a rear outer side.
  • the first combustion chamber 12 is a space where firewood that is the fuel of the fireplace boiler is burned, ashes remaining after the firewood are burned in the first combustion chamber 12 drop down into the second combustion chamber 13 from the first combustion chamber 11. However, the ashes are held on the stoker 11 while firewood is burned, and the drop into the second combustion chamber 13 through the stoker 11 after the firewood is burned.
  • the stoker 11, which separates the first combustion chamber 12 and the second combustion chamber 13, is a cylindrical gauze-like member.
  • the air adjuster 15 that allows air at the outdoor side 1 to flow into the main combustion chamber 10 communicates with the main combustion chamber 10.
  • a user opens the door 21 to open the interior port 20, puts firewood into the first combustion chamber 12, ignites the firewood, and then close the door 21, and a window may be disposed on the front side of the door 12 for the user to see the inside of the interior port 20 and the first combustion chamber 12 at the outside in this process.
  • the hot water circulation pipe 30 has combustion pipes 32 spaced from each other with regular intervals over the first combustion chamber 12 with flame passages 31 therebetween, a hot water outlet 33 disposed around the combustion pipes 32 and positioned at the upper portion of the main combustion chamber 10, and a hot water inlet 34 disposed at the rear portion of the main combustion chamber 10.
  • the heat from the firewood burning in the first combustion chamber 12 transfers to the hot water circulation pipe 30 disposed around the combustion pipes 32 through the combustion pipes 32 the flame passages 31, so hot water for the boiler can be supplied.
  • the hot water outlet 33 and the hot water inlet 34 are connected to pipes of the boiler in the same way that a hot water outlet pipe and a hot water inlet pipe are connected to a common boiler, so the detailed description is not provided.
  • Hot water circulating through the hot water circulation pipe 30 can be heated by the heat of the flame produced in the first combustion chamber 12, so it is possible to heat the floor of an interior space and supply hot water even without an oil boiler or a gas boiler.
  • the hot air circulation pipe 40 has hot air outlets 41 disposed through the upper portion of the front side of the indoor port 20 and hot air inlets 41 disposed through the lower portion of the front side of the indoor port 20, connects the hot air outlets 41 and the hot air inlets 42, and is positioned through the first combustion chamber 12 and the second combustion chamber 13.
  • the air circulating through the hot air circulation pipe 40 is heated by the heat produced in the first combustion chamber 12, so hot air is discharged to the indoor side through the hot air outlet 41, thereby heating the interior air.
  • an intake fan 46 forcibly sucking the interior air may be disposed in the hot air inlets 42.
  • a cleaning socket 51 is disposed at the upper portion of the rear side of the main combustion chamber 10 and the outdoor port 50 is disposed at a lower portion of the rear side of the main combustion chamber 10 so that ashes in the second combustion chamber 13 can be removed to clean the second combustion chamber 13 or firewood can be put into the second combustion chamber 13.
  • the outdoor port 50 is opened and closed by an outdoor port door.
  • the cleaning socket 51 is used to check or clean the flame passages 31 or the combustion pipes 32 disposed over the first combustion chamber 12 of the main combustion chamber 10.
  • connection bars 64 are pulled, so the damper 62 of which a side is connected to the connection bars 64 is lifted by the rotary shaft 61, so the stove pipe 14 is opened.
  • An air intake port 71 for sucking exterior air is disposed outside the main combustion chamber 10
  • an air intake line 72 extends from the air intake port 71
  • an air exit port 73 is disposed in the indoor port 20 to supply the exterior air flowing inside through the air intake line 72 to the first combustion chamber 12.
  • the ash shield 70 covers the air exit port 73 to block ashes.
  • the ash shield 70 prevents the air exit port 73 from being clogged with ashes by covering the air exit port 73 connected to the first combustion chamber 12.
  • the air exit port 73 is provided to discharge exterior air to the first combustion chamber 12. Exterior air flows inside through the air intake port 71 exposed outside the main combustion chamber 10, keeps flowing into the main combustion chamber 10 through the air intake line 72, and is then discharged to the first combustion chamber 12 of the main combustion chamber 10 through the air exit port 73, whereby air for burning the firewood in the first combustion chamber 12 is supplied.
  • a cover 44 having a knob 43 and opening/closing the hot air outlet 41 is disposed in the hot air outlet 41, and the gauze-like grill 45 connected to the cover 44 is further disposed at the lower portion in the hot air outlet 41.
  • shelves 22 facing each other are disposed on the inner side of the indoor port 20 having the door 21.
  • a humidifier 23 is coupled to the front side of the indoor port 20 and has a vapor exit 23a exposed through the front side of the indoor port 20 and a water container 23b connected to the vapor exit 23a and disposed inside the indoor port 20.
  • the humidifier 23 is disposed at the center of the indoor port 20 where the hot air outlet 41 is disposed, so when a user fills the water container 23b with water and then puts the water container 23b into the indoor port 20, the water in the water container 23b is heated and vapor that is generated in this process of heating is discharged to the indoor through the vapor exit 23a disposed through the front side of the indoor port 20, so the indoor is humidified.
  • a freeze protection electric heater 80 is further disposed in the main combustion chamber 10 and is electrically connected to a temperature sensor 81 for detecting the temperature at the outdoor side where the main combustion chamber 10 is disposed and a freezing-bursting sensor 82 for operating or stopping the freeze protection electric heater 80 in cooperation with the temperature sensor 81.
  • the temperature sensor 81 detects the outdoor temperature and operates the freeze protection electric heater 80, so it is possible to prevent the hot water circulation pipe 30 from freezing and bursting.
  • the outdoor port 50 protrudes from the rear side of the main combustion chamber 10 and a pot 90 is disposed over the outdoor port 50.
  • the pot 90 is provided, it is possible to use the pot 90, for example, in order to cook rice or other food, in which the source for heating the pot 90 is the heat produced in the process of combustion in the first combustion chamber 12 and the heat from the charcoals that drop into the second combustion chamber 13 while the firewood is burned in the first combustion chamber 12.
