Description

Charcoal Igniter {Apparatus for setting light to charcoal}

The present invention relates to a charcoal igniter, and more particularly, to a charcoal igniter designed to ignite charcoal safely and quickly while performing cooling and purging of air.

'Charcoal' refers to any fuel made of wood or coal that is easily ignited and treated to maintain high heat as long as possible. This charcoal is known to have an effect of deodorization and sterilization compared to gas or electricity, and thus, it is widely used for roasting meat in restaurants.

Although the charcoal has been treated to keep the heat of heat as long as possible, it cannot be left on a long time ignited. Therefore, the restaurant selects the appropriate amount of charcoal to be pre-ignited and waits or immediately ignites as needed, and provides the ignited charcoal to the customer.

However, in the case of the former, when the air condition is long, a problem arises that the char is not actually used and becomes ash. In the latter case, there is a problem that the service is not provided smoothly because it takes a long time to ignite and provide the charcoal. Therefore, in the field, there is a need for a charcoal ignition device that can ignite charcoal quickly and service it immediately.

There is a proposal for this, the rotary coal ignition device disclosed in the registration room No. 375333. The apparatus disclosed herein arranges a plurality of cylindrical members on which the oven is seated on a rotating disc at regular intervals, ignites the charcoal of the oven in the upper spark plug, while blowing the wind in the oven in the lower blower. It has a structure to feed in the direction.

As described, this structure has the advantage of being able to ignite the charcoal quickly and provide it in large quantities by rotating the furnace and igniting it with a spark plug. However, no measures have been taken with regard to the safety and handling of ash in handling the device. Thus, the worker is always exposed to the risk of burns, and the air is greatly contaminated by the ashes of charcoal.

In addition, the structure of supplying wind to the oven upwards from the lower blower can prevent the charcoal located deep inside the furnace from being ignited, so that the furnace must be used as a small one, so that the coal is fired quickly and in large quantities. The effect is meaningless or antagonistic.

Moreover, the blower supply structure serves to disperse ash into the atmosphere, thereby accelerating air pollution. In general, since restaurants are in close proximity to houses, complaints are often raised due to such air pollution.

In order to solve the above problems of the prior art, the charcoal ignition device may be designed in a structure that allows the outside air to pass from the upper side to the lower side of the oven (Patent application 2009-20544 "charcoal ignition and processing device") .

This design will allow the charcoal to ignite quickly to the depth of the firebox, thus igniting a large amount of charcoal quickly. In addition to the ignition device, by providing a cleaning tower including a cleaning agent and a spray structure in association with the air discharge duct to be able to treat the ash of the charcoal, it will be possible to prevent the pollution of the air due to the ash.

In this case, however, the ignition system quickly becomes hot due to the internal air gradually heating from the oven. Accordingly, it is very difficult for an operator to handle the device, and there is a fear that the device may explode due to the expansion of internal air. On the other hand, the size of the entire apparatus is increased due to the washing tower structure, which makes installation of the apparatus in a small workplace quite burdensome.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a charcoal ignition apparatus that is designed to safely and quickly ignite charcoal, and to perform cooling of air, which can be handled safely by an operator, and eliminates the risk of explosion. Another object of the present invention is to provide a charcoal ignition device that is designed to purify the air in a simpler structure, the purification structure is simpler than the cleaning tower.

Charcoal ignition device according to the present invention is:

A housing having an inner space formed therein, a pedestal having a through hole communicable with a porous oven seated on a bottom surface thereof, and a gas for igniting char in the oven by generating a spark by an ignition plug on an upper side of the housing; A main body including a crater;

The tank is arranged to support the main body from the bottom and is installed to communicate with the through hole of the pedestal in the tank for storing the coolant therein, and communicates with the oven and extends through the coolant in the tank to the ventilator installed outside. A chiller comprising a duct;

It includes.

Preferably a cradle is formed on the left and right side walls of the housing, and the pedestal is mounted on the cradle to slide in and out of the inner space of the housing.

Preferably, the cooling device includes: a concave groove formed in the lower side of the tank and a drawer for sliding in and out of the concave groove; The duct is designed to descend from the through side of the pedestal via the concave groove and the inner space of the drawer. In addition, one side of the tank is provided with a water supply valve and a drain valve.

Meanwhile, the charcoal igniter is:

An air inlet and outlet formed on the upper surface and an air purification tank having a flow path formed on the water surface by a guide provided between the inlet and the outlet;

At this time, the end of the duct is in communication with the inlet of the water tank.

According to the charcoal ignition apparatus of the present invention, the outside air is passed from the upper side to the lower side of the oven by the fan. Accordingly, the flame supplied to the surface of the oven can penetrate deep into the oven and ignite quickly. Therefore, it is possible to ignite a large amount of charcoal quickly by using a large oven.

At this time, the air heated to a high temperature while passing through the oven is heat-exchanged with the cooling water inside the tank while passing through the duct of the cooling apparatus, and is sufficiently cooled before being discharged to the outside. Therefore, by igniting the charcoal at the same time to perform the cooling of the heat, the operator can be safely handled, there is no effect such as no fear of explosion due to the heating of the device. On the other hand, if the cooling water is heated to some extent, it may be used for separate purposes as hot water.

In addition, the duct is designed to pass through the concave groove formed in the lower side of the tank and the inner space of the drawer, so that the ash of char is collected at the bottom of the drawer, thereby effectively purifying the exhaust air. And the purification apparatus applied to the charcoal ignition apparatus of the present invention is that only the flow path is formed in the tank, there is an effect that the structure is simpler than other purification apparatus.

Features and effects of the present invention described or not described above, will be more apparent through the description of a preferred embodiment of the present invention charcoal igniter described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to Figure 1, the charcoal ignition device according to the present invention is indicated by the reference numeral 10. The charcoal ignition apparatus 10 includes a main body 11 including a stove pedestal 14 and a gas crater 15, a cooling device 12 supporting the main body 11 at a lower portion of the main body 11, Air purification tank 13 is disposed on one side of the cooling device (12). In the figure, 16 is a pipe for measuring the water level in the tank of the cooling device 12.

Referring to Figure 2 will be described in detail with respect to the main body 11, the cooling device 12 and the air purification tank (13).

First, the main body 11 includes a housing 17 having an internal space S1, a base pedestal 14 for entering and exiting the internal space S1 of the housing 17, and an upper side of the housing 17. The gas crater 15 is disposed to ignite the charcoal C in the oven 18.

On the left and right side walls forming the housing 17, cradles 42 corresponding to each other are formed. Preferably, the cradle 42 is a conventional sliding rail or bearing which is supported on the left and right side walls of the housing 17, thereby smoothly sliding the pedestal 14. This structure is judged to be suitable as a structure for easily withdrawing the oven 18. However, the present invention is not characterized in or limited to this drawing structure, and another structure may be applied in other embodiments.

The pedestal 14 has a drawer structure with an open top, and the oven 18 is seated on the bottom surface. In addition, a through hole 19 communicating with the duct of the cooling device 12 is formed on the bottom surface on which the oven 18 is seated. The pedestal 14 is installed on the cradle, and enters the internal space (S1) of the housing 17 in a sliding manner. Reference numeral 20 is a handle fixed to the front of the pedestal 14. The pedestal 14 is the oven 18 is a conventional upper open oven formed with a number of holes such that the charcoal (C) does not come out.

Referring to FIG. 3, the pedestal 14 includes a stopper 40 corresponding to the protruding structure 41 of the housing 17. This structure eliminates the problem that the pedestal 14 falls off when the pedestal 14 is pulled out. However, since the pedestal 14 may need to be separated for washing and cleaning, the stopper 40 may be in the form of a hook that can be caught and released.

Referring back to FIG. 2, in this embodiment, the housing 17 is fixed to the lower position of the sliding pedestal 14, and the diaphragm in which the through hole 22 communicating with the through hole 19 of the pedestal 14 is formed. (21). This diaphragm 21 is for preventing direct heat exchange between the main body 11 and the cooling device 12, but this configuration is not necessarily required in the present invention and may be omitted in other embodiments.

On the upper side of the housing 17, a gas crater 15 for generating sparks by means of an ignition plug (reference numeral 23 in FIG. 1) to ignite the charcoal C in the oven 18 is disposed. The gas crater 15 is a terminal extended by a high-pressure gas pipe (symbol 24 in FIG. 1) whose opening and closing is controlled by the switch section 25 and the circuit section 26. However, the above gas supply and ignition structure is not unusual in the present invention, and further description thereof will be omitted.

On the other hand, the gas crater 15 has a lower flange 27 spread in a plane. The flange 27 is for preventing the heat of the oven 18 disposed below the heat rise, whereby the switch portion 25, the circuit portion 26 and other elements can be safely preserved.

Next, the cooling device 12 supports the main body 11 and cools the air heated by the oven 18 and discharges it to the outside. Structurally, the cooling device 12 is disposed to support the main body 11 at the lower part of the main body 11 and has a tank 28 storing the coolant 29 therein, and a coolant 29 of the tank 28. Duct 30 is installed to pass through).

Specifically, the duct 30 is installed so as to communicate with the through-hole 19 of the pedestal 14 from the upper side, passing through the coolant 29 in the tank 28 to the outside of the tank 28 ( 31).

In this embodiment, the cooling device 12 includes a concave groove 32 formed in the lower side of the tank 28 and a drawer 33 for sliding in and out of the concave groove 32, the duct 30 is It is designed to descend from the through-hole 19 side of the pedestal 14 via the concave groove 32 and the inner space S2 of the drawer 33. As shown in FIG. 4, the drawer 33 slides in and out the recess 32 in a conventional manner, which design collects and processes the ash or ash of charcoal C generated during operation of the device. useful.

The recess 32 is not attached to the bottom surface of the tank 28, and is spaced at regular intervals. This is because the cooling water 29 and the duct 30 are contacted as much as possible, thereby maximizing the cooling efficiency. On the other hand, the cooling device 12 includes a water supply valve 34 and the drain valve 35 provided on one side of the tank (28). This can simplify the filling of the cooling water 29, and in particular, it is possible to simplify the use of hot water for winter hand washing.

And, the air purification tank 13 is a water reservoir, the inlet 36 and the outlet 37 is formed on the upper surface, the guide which is installed downward between the inlet 36 and the outlet 37 in contact with the water surface ( 38, the flow path P is formed on the water surface, and the end of the duct 30 via the fan 31 communicates with the inlet 36 of the water tank. Reference numeral 39 is a filter net provided in the flow path P.

Referring to FIG. 5, the flow path P extends from the inlet 36 to the one side wall of the water tank 13 and from the end of the first flow path P1 to the outlet 37. The second flow path P2 is included. Preferably, the filter net 39 is installed in the second flow path P2.

2, the operation of the charcoal ignition device 10 of the present invention will be described. The arrows indicated by dashed lines in the figure indicate the overall air flow, including the intake and exhaust of external air during operation of the device.

First, the oven 18 filled with charcoal C is seated on the pedestal 14, and the pedestal 14 is slid to position the inner space S1 of the housing 17. When the on / off switch of the switch section 25 is turned on in this state, the device 10 operates.

At this time, the high-pressure gas pipe 24 is opened so that a high-pressure gas is supplied to the gas crater 15, while a spark is generated in the spark plug 23 to release thermal power through the gas crater 15. Thus, the charcoal C stacked in the oven 18 directly below the gas crater 15 is ignited from the upper surface thereof.

At the same time, the exhaust fan 31 is operated to suck outside air above the housing 17 through the open gas crater 15. This air is sucked into the duct 30 side of the lower cooling device 12 via the internal space S1 and the oven 18 of the housing 17, wherein the fire provided on the surface of the oven 18 is directed downward. Forced by the flow of air, it is dispersed downward. Therefore, the fire provided on the surface of the oven 18 spreads to charcoal deep in the oven 18, so that a large amount of char can be ignited in an instant.

Subsequently, the air passing through the oven 18 is heated to a high temperature. The hot air is then cooled while heat-exchanging with the cooling water 29 surrounding the duct 30 while circulating the duct 30 of the cooling device 12. While the above heat exchange is repeated repeatedly, there is a risk that the cooling water 29 is heated and the pressure in the tank 28 is excessively raised. The vent 43 formed above the tank 28 functions to appropriately adjust the pressure in the tank 28.

In the circulation process through the duct 30, the air first descends from the through hole 19 side of the pedestal 14 and passes through the internal space S2 of the drawer 33. At this time, chips or ashes of charcoal C contained in the air fall into the drawer 33, and the air is significantly purified. The air thus cooled and purified is introduced into the fan 31 and discharged to the outside through the end of the duct 30.

The discharged air is secondarily purified while passing through the air purification tank 13 and discharged to the atmosphere. That is, the air discharged from the cooling device 12 through the end of the duct 30 is subsequently introduced into the water tank 13 through the inlet 36. And the input air is passed through the flow path (P) and the filter network (39), fine dust or harmful substances are immersed in the water and the filter network, and thus more purified air can be released into the atmosphere.
