- the former wall may be defined by a removable cap.
- the apparatus may include at least one heat shield around the second tubular wall.
- the heat shield may be a third tubular wall.
- the third tubular wall may be round tubular and coaxial with the first and second tubular walls.
- the apparatus may be configurable for use as at least one of a cooking stove, a lighting apparatus, a water heater, and a space heater.
- the apparatus may particularly be configured for use as a cooking stove, the apparatus including a cooking vessel support formation.
- the apparatus may be configured to operate on at least one fuel selected from a group consisting of paraffin, diesel, kerosene, coal tar oil, crude oil, hydrocarbon fractions, and organic material oils.
- Figure 1 shows a top view of a fuel burning apparatus, in accordance with the invention, in the form of a fuel burning stove;
- Figure 2 shows a section of the stove of Figure 1 , as indicated by arrows ll-ll of Figure 1 ; and Figure 3 shows a side elevation of the stove of Figure 1 , as indicated by arrows Ill-Ill of Figure 1 ;
- FIG. 1 to 3 an example embodiment of a fuel burning apparatus, in accordance with the invention, in the form of a cooking stove, is designated generally by the reference numeral 10.
- the stove 10 is predominantly made of stainless steel plate. It includes a base and tank assembly 1 1 .1 and a burner assembly 1 1 .2.
- the burner assembly 1 1 .2 includes a number of round tubular walls that are coaxial about a vertical axis 12 and that include, from the inside out:
- a perforated first tubular wall 14 having a length of about 165mm and a diameter of about 72mm;
- a perforated second tubular wall 16 having a length of about 165mm and a diameter of about 100mm;
- a fourth tubular wall 20 having a length of about 165mm and a diameter of about 172mm;
- a fifth tubular wall 22 having a length of about 165mm and a diameter of about 232mm.
- the burner assembly 1 1 .2 includes an inner sub-assembly 24.1 and an outer sub-assembly 24.2.
- the inner sub-assembly 24.1 includes:
- annular base wall 26 interconnecting respective peripheral bottom edges of the walls 14 and 16;
- a cap 28 which is snugly and removably fitted over a top peripheral edge of the wall 14, the cap 28 including a round horizontal wall closing off a top of the wall 14; and an annular top wall 30 extending between and interconnecting respective top edges of the walls 16 and 18.
- the outer sub-assembly 24.2 includes:
- a generally cylindrical plinth wall 40 of which a top part defines a seat 41 within which the base wall 26 is removably seated.
- a peripheral combustion chamber 42 which is annular in plan section of the stove 10.
- annular fuel tray 44 for receiving a liquid fuel.
- the fuel tray 44 can hold liquid up to the level of the bottom of the perforations of the walls 14 and 16, i.e. up to a depth of about 10mm.
- the chamber 42 is upwardly open via an annular aperture 58.
- the walls 20, 22, and 40 each defines therethrough a plurality of circumferentially spaced vent holes 43.
- the base and tank assembly 1 1 .1 includes:
- a 900ml fuel reservoir 46 including a cap 45 and a shut off valve 47 defining an air vent of the reservoir;
- gravity fuel feed means 48 including a manually operable fuel flow control and shut off valve 50, a shut off valve 51 , and a feed pipe 52 feeding into the chamber 42 and into the fuel tray 44.
- the valves 47, 50, and 51 may be conventional and, accordingly, are not described or illustrated in detail herein.
- the outer sub-assembly 24.2 includes also an arrangement of angle profiles, secured on top of the wall 36, defining a cooking vessel support formation 49.
- the inner sub-assembly 24.1 is removable from the outer sub-assembly 24.2 via an aperture defined within the lip 38, after removal of the cooking vessel support formation 49.
- the inner sub-assembly 24.1 includes also ignition means in the form of a metal element including a short length of pipe 61 and a depending, outwardly open channel 63.
- the ignition means is secured to an outside of the wall 14 and extends along the height of the wall 14, with the length of pipe 61 being at the top and the channel 63 extending down to the fuel tray 44.
- the fuel flow control and shut off valve 50 is manually controlled to feed fuel into the fuel tray 44 at a desired rate.
- a heat indicator wire 64 made of mild steel, depends into the chamber 42.
- the reservoir 46 is charged with fuel, e.g. liquid paraffin.
- fuel e.g. liquid paraffin.
- a small amount of primer fuel e.g. methylated spirits, is dripped into the length of pipe 61 and runs down in the channel 63.
- primer fuel e.g. methylated spirits
- the line of primer fuel is ignited by means of a match or other lighting means at the pipe 61 and ignites the primer fuel in the fuel tray 44.
- the primer fuel burns and causes the heat indicator wire 64 to glow orange. When this glow starts to subside, it is time to manually open the valve 50 to supply fuel into the fuel tray 44.
- Combustion of a gaseous mixture of the fuel and oxygen occurs in the chamber 42 and, to a lesser extent, also in a chamber 56 defined within the tubular wall 14.
- the amount of heat generated is controlled by controlling fuel flow by means of the valve 50.
- the walls 18, 20, and 22 serve as gas and heat shields and regulate flow of air and other gases through the stove 10. Gases escape through the annular aperture 58 at the top of the chamber 42 and through the perforated wall 36.
- a cooking vessel can be supported on the formation 49 to be heated by the stove 10.
- shut off valves 47 and 51 respectively shut off air supply into the reservoir 46 and fuel feed from the reservoir in the event of the stove 10 being tilted in any direction beyond a critical safe tilt limit. As such, combustion in the burner assembly 1 1 .2 is terminated within a short and safe period of time.
- the stove 10 may serve as both a cooking stove and a space heater.
- a fuel burning apparatus similar to the stove 10, and still in accordance with the invention, may be configured as any of:
- a water heater for heating water in a reservoir
