Background of the Invention

The invention relates to a firewood assembly comprising a log which is split and an intermediate support.

5 It is quite difficult for someone who is unfamiliar to light a fire, a furnace or an open fireplace. Furthermore, the formation of fracture white, in particular, requires a great deal of * knowledge and skill. In slit-lime, two round logs are superimposed and the fire burns in the gap between the overlapping round logs for a long time and with great warmth and atmosphere. Indeed, for the TOTO-10 non-firewood manufacturer, there are dried firewood in pre-packaged packages that collect and select firewood for the purpose of igniting the fireplace, which allows even the most unfamiliar to make a fire. However, such assortments are quite expensive in view of the fact that the fire they produce burns very quickly, whereby, for example, the fires burned in the open fireplace 15 do not produce much heat and overall the burning time is quite short. 1

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to provide a novel type of firewood arrangement.

t ... '20 The firewood arrangement according to the invention is characterized in that the wooden halves of the split logs are arranged at different sides of the intermediate support | »· * '., ¾ of each other such that the gap between the wood halves is substantially vertical and that the arrangement includes means for keeping the vertical gap * * · equal during combustion.

The essential idea of the invention is that the firewood assembly includes a log that is split and an intermediate support. The different halves of the split log are spaced apart at different distances from the spacer so that the gap between the different halves is substantially vertical. This will create a gap! ···. a long lasting fire that can be ignited with relative ease and which * · T * 30 warms up for a very long time and gives a great campfire feel for a very long time. For example, burning times up to • · · up to ten times longer than in flames burning in open fireplaces. The idea of one embodiment is that the intermediate support has clamping means for tightening the wood halves against the intermediate support. This will allow the gap to remain substantially the same for a long time, • · 35 resulting in a smooth, long-lasting combustion result and 2 118087 effective. In another embodiment, the idea is that the log is split with a saw, thereby straightening the vertical gap of the wood halves.

Further, the sawdust log dries efficiently and sawmill splitting is an effective way to split the log. Thus, cutting a saw results in a total of 5 high quality end products.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The invention will be explained in more detail in the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 schematically shows a firewood assembly, Figure 2 schematically shows an intermediate support and - ··· 10 shows another schematically another intermediate support. ^

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION?

Fig. 1 shows a firewood assembly having first firewood half 1a and second firewood half 1b formed of roundwood. An intermediate support 2 is disposed between the firewood halves 1a and 1b so that

15 has a substantially vertical slot 3 between the half halves 1a and 1b. J

k

The width of the slot 3 is, for example, 1 to 1.5 cm. Firewood halves 1a and 1b are | formed by circular sawdust, whereby the slot 3 is straight. Firewood | the halves 1a and 1b are clamped against the intermediate support 2 by clamping wires 4, which may be, for example, iron wire. The length of the firewood halves 1a and 1b may be ..... 20, for example 30 to 200 cm. It is also possible to make the firewood halves 1a and 1b longer. Thus, they can be up to 6 - 7 m long if desired. Pak- • * ·. the kissing tree from which the wood halves 1a and 1b are formed may be, for example, * 15 '- 50 cm. If the firewood halves 1a and 1b are sufficiently short, one intermediate bracket 2 is sufficient between them. If the firewood halves 1a and 1b are longer, two or more intermediate brackets 2 may be used to ensure that the gap 3 is the entire length of the firewood halves 1a. and 1b of substantially the same size.

: * · “The firewood arrangement is preferably lit with tar splinters that can. ··. for example, be 10 to 20 cm long and 1 to 3 cm thick. [30] boils the tar shreds and ignites them and sets the tar shreds around the bottom 3 ··· edge of the gap. The tar splinters can be fitted to the front of the firewood assembly. Because the slot is substantially vertical, the firewood door can be easily ignited since the vertical slot results in an advantageous combustion of the air stream.

• ·: 118087 3?

For example, over-summer firewoods or otherwise unsuitable wood for example logs or pulp may be used in the firewood arrangement. Preferably, the burned wood is dried, for example, for 1 to 2 years before being sold and used.

In addition to splitting, the log may be treated by removing portions of the lower edge of each of the wooden halves 1a and 1b along the dotted lines f in Fig. 1. Hereby, the center of gravity of the wood halves 1a and 1b can be formed such that when the wood halves 1a and 1b burn, they are inclined towards the intermediate support 2, whereby the gap 3 remains automatically the same during combustion.

Figure 2 shows an intermediate support 2 formed, for example, of sheet metal. The sheet metal is first stamped with a T-piece and has holes for clamping wires. Thereafter, the T-arms of the T-shaped body are bent substantially perpendicular to the shaft. Thus, the T-legs form the base of the intermediate support 2, which is flat and the width of the T-arm defines the width of the slot 3.

The clamping wire 4 is arranged to exit from the hole in the upper part of the intermediate support 2. The clamping thread 4 is wound around the wooden halves 1a and 1b and re-fitted * through the hole in the upper part of the spacer 2. There is a A loop 5 is formed 20, whereby pulling loop 5 can be used to tighten the clamping thread 4. Thus, when the wood halves 1a and 1b burn, they can be pulled • T: closer together, for example by pulling loop 5 with a gentle hook or other means. t • · ·. · * ·. The clamping wire 4 may be a rather thin iron wire, for example • ·: *. * ·. 25 threads. Thus, for example, the clamping wire 4 may have a thickness of 0.2 to 1 mm.

• * · ** Y Figure 3 shows an intermediate support 2 formed of iron wire * ”! by bending. For example, the wire thickness can be 3-5 mm. Thick iron • · ..

Instead of the '···' talanga, for example, brush steel can be used in the same way.

The firewood assembly can be used outdoors, for example, where it: * ·· 30 is quite similar to slit white. Further, the firewood assembly may also be burned in an open fireplace or in a furnace with a door or the like. In the firewood arrangement, pine can be used very well as wood for burning, but other wood materials such as spruce are also possible.

· · *: 35 Wood halves 1a and 1b can be packed in, for example, hardboard: · ·: for sale. One package may contain one or more 118087 4 pia half pairs. The intermediate support 2 with its clamping threads 4 can be used several times, so that with each pair of wooden halves the intermediate support 2 need not necessarily be included in the sales package.

The drawing and the description related thereto are only intended to illustrate the idea of the invention. The details of the invention may vary within the scope of the claims. Thus, the logs from which the wooden halves 1a and 1b are formed need not be circular, but other forms of logs may also be used.

Further, the log can be split other than by sawing. For example, splitting with an ax does not make the gap completely straight, which on the other hand may also contribute to ignition and combustion.
