Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a fixing device for a tank partition plate of a kerosene heater or the like having a cartridge tank.

Conventional technology Cartridge tank (hereinafter abbreviated as C tank)
A conventional tank partition plate fixing device for a kerosene heater with a built-in tank will be described below with reference to the drawings. First, as shown in FIG. 3, the hot air heater has a combustion section 2, a blower section 3, and a tank installation space 5 in which a C tank 4 is installed inside the main body exterior 1, and the tank installation space 5 is It consists of a main body exterior 1, a top plate 6 covering the upper part of the main body exterior 1, and an L-shaped tank partition plate 7 attached to the main body exterior 1. Conventionally, the tank partition plate 7 is fixed by providing a square hole 7b in one of the flange portions 7a at both ends of the tank partition plate 7, as shown in FIG. 1a, and the other (front side) of the flange portion 7a was tightened with screws.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the above configuration, the corner 7c of the L-shaped tank partition plate 7 is not fixed, so there is a large degree of freedom, and the rear side of the tank partition plate 7 is connected to the main body exterior 1. Since it is simply hooked onto the locking portion 1a of the holder, it is extremely vulnerable to external forces. Especially when an impact force such as a fall is applied, the tank partition plate 7
This has disadvantages in that the C tank 4 may fall off, resulting in insufficient partitioning from the combustion section 2, and insufficient guidance of the C tank 4, making it difficult to insert it. Furthermore, there was also a drawback that vibrations of the blower section 3 and the like were amplified by the tank partition plate 7, causing chattering noise in the C tank 4 and the like.

The present invention was created in view of the above drawbacks, and the purpose is to provide a tank partition plate fixing device that has sufficient strength against external forces and prevents vibration amplification without the need for installing separate parts. That is.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides an engaging part near the top of the tank partition plate, and also provides a claw on the top plate that fits into this engaging part. is fitted into the engaging portion of the tank partition plate.

Effects The effects of the above-mentioned technical means of the present invention are as follows.

In other words, when the claws of the top plate are fitted into the engaging portions of the tank partition plate, the weak portions of the tank partition plate can be fixed without using any separate parts.

As a result, the degree of freedom of the tank partition plate is reduced, and even if an impact force is applied, the tank partition plate will not fall off from the exterior of the main body, and the amplification of vibrations that cause chatter noise can be prevented. This makes it possible to increase the strength of the partition plate itself and, by extension, the exterior of the main body.

Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In Figures 1 and 2, 11
12 is a combustion section provided inside the main body exterior 11, and the combustion gas generated in the combustion section 12 is turned into warm air by the blowing section 13. 14 is a cartridge tank (hereinafter abbreviated as C tank); 15 is a cartridge tank installation space (hereinafter abbreviated as C tank installation space) provided inside the main body exterior 11;
The tank installation space 15 consists of a top plate 17 that covers the upper part of the main body exterior 11 and has a cartridge tank insertion port (hereinafter abbreviated as C tank insertion port) 16, and an L-shaped tank partition plate 18. Reference numeral 19 denotes a square hole provided on one side of the flange portion 18a of the tank partition plate 18, and the square hole 19 is hooked to a locking portion 11a provided on the main body exterior 11, and the other side of the flange portion 18a (front side ) is fixed with screws. 2
0 is a claw provided near the C tank insertion port 16 of the top plate 17, and this claw 20 is inserted into the tank partition plate 1.
A slit-shaped engagement portion 2 cut and raised on the upper part of 8.
1 to fix the tank partition plate 18.

The operation of the tank partition plate 18 fixing device configured as described above will be described below. First, if external force is applied such as when falling, the tank partition plate 18
tries to swing back and forth and left and right, but the claw 20, which is a part of the top plate 17, hits the engaging portion 2 of the tank partition plate 18.
1, the tank partition plate 18 does not move and therefore does not lose its function due to falling off or the like. Furthermore, since the degree of freedom of the tank partition plate 18 is reduced, vibrations of the blower section 13 are not amplified, and therefore, no chattering noise is generated in the C tank 14 or the like. By joining the top plate 17, the main body exterior 11, and the tank partition plate 18, the strength of the tank partition plate 18 itself can be increased, and in turn, the strength of the structure of the main body can be increased.

Effects of the invention As described above, according to the invention, the claws, which are part of the top plate, are inserted into the engaging parts provided near the top of the tank partition plate, so the tank partition can be separated without using any separate parts. This has the effect of increasing the strength of the plate, making it possible to fix it strongly against external forces with a small degree of freedom, and also to make it possible to securely fix it strongly against vibrations.
