A portable heating device is provided that generally consists of an upper housing having a plurality of openings that allow heat to escape from a coiled infrared heating tube that generates radiant heat. The portable heating device also includes an upper surface with an opening that produces a visible flame and conductive heat. The upper surface is also associated with a flame burner that feeds a cooking surface.

The fireplace includes a hearth suspended on a support. The hearth is defined laterally by a peripheral wall that is equipped with at least one combustion air inlet. There is a discharge pipe for discharging the combustion gases, that includes a bottom portion secured to a top part of the hearth, and a top portion opposite the bottom portion. The fireplace also includes at least one combustible fluid burner that is arranged in the hearth opposite at least one air inlet and a combustible fluid supply column that extends between a first end connected to a combustible fluid source and a second end connected to at least one burner. The supply column passed down through the discharge pipe from its top portion to its bottom portion and opens in the hearth in order to convey the combustible fluid from the combustible fluid source to at least one burner.

A gas fireplace includes a furnace, a burner, and an air guiding device, wherein the air guiding device divides an inside of the furnace into a first chamber and a second chamber; the burner is provided in the second chamber; an air outlet of the furnace communicates with the first chamber; the air guiding device has a passageway communicating the first chamber and the second chamber, wherein a width of the passageway gradually narrows from the second chamber to the first chamber. Whereby, the hot air generated while the burner is burning gas enters the first chamber from the second chamber through the air guiding device, and then can be smoothly exhausted to outside.

A gas burner arrangement for a hotplate includes at least two gas burners, each gas burner having operably connected thereto a gas valve for regulating a combustion gas flow to the gas burners, and a thermoelement for monitoring a flame of the gas burners. The thermoelement is coupled to the gas valve by an electrical circuit, such that when the flame of the associated gas burner is extinguished, the combustion gas flow to the gas burner is interrupted with the aid of the gas valve. Each electrical circuit includes a mechanically actuatable switch configured to couple or decouple the electrical circuit between the associated thermoelement and the associated gas valve. The mechanically actuatable switch includes a contact element having a noble metal. A shared actuation element controls the mechanically actuatable switches of the electric circuits.

A gas burner apparatus and a cooking apparatus including the same are provided. The gas burner apparatus a first burner, a second burner spaced apart from a lower side of the first burner, a support plate on which the second burner is disposed, and a secondary air supply flow channel to supply secondary air to the first burner, the secondary air supply flow channel including a first secondary air supply flow path formed between the first and second burners and a second secondary air supply flow path starting from an area lower than the support plate, the first and second paths being connected to each other.

The present apparatus is a heat focusing reflector that can either be built in by the manufacturer of the heater or an add-on attachment that can be installed by an end user to allow these types of heaters to project more heat to further distances. The heat focusing reflector will block heat from traveling all around these types of heater and will instead focus and/or reflect all of the heat to travel toward one side of the heater. By redirecting heat from these heaters and focusing the heat to travel longer distances away from the heater, these heaters can become more efficient and functional as an outdoor space heater.

A gas fireplace includes a furnace, a burner, and an air guiding device, wherein the air guiding device divides an inside of the furnace into a first chamber and a second chamber; the burner is provided in the second chamber; an air outlet of the furnace communicates with the first chamber; the air guiding device has a passageway communicating the first chamber and the second chamber, wherein a width of the passageway gradually narrows from the second chamber to the first chamber. Whereby, the hot air generated while the burner is burning gas enters the first chamber from the second chamber through the air guiding device, and then can be smoothly exhausted to outside.

A gas fireplace includes a firebox, a translucent cover provided on the firebox, and a separate assembly. The separate assembly is provided in the firebox, and divides the firebox into an air chamber and a combustion chamber which corresponds to the translucent cover. An exhaust passage is formed between the separate assembly and the translucent cover, and communicates the air chamber and the combustion chamber, wherein an inner width of the exhaust passage gradually reduces from the air chamber toward the combustion chamber. During the combustion, the exhaust passage guides cold air to flow through the semi-enclosed air chamber, and to evenly blow into the translucent cover, which forms an even air curtain on a surface of a bottom portion of the translucent cover to block out the heat. Whereby, the temperature of the translucent cover and the bottom portion of the combustion chamber could be lowered.

A portable heating device is provided that generally consists of an upper housing having a plurality of openings that allow heat to escape from a coiled infrared heating tube that generates radiant heat. The portable heating device also includes an upper surface with an opening that produces a visible flame and conductive heat. The upper surface is also associated with a flame burner that feeds a cooking surface.

A portable campfire may include a base plate, a substantially vertical burner tube with substantially outward facing orifices, one or more legs secured to the base plate and supporting the portable campfire, and a fuel source. The orifices may be configured to emit fuel in substantially horizontal directions so that when ignited, a flame is produced that extends substantially horizontally from the burner tube. The portable campfire may include a leg lock plate to secure the legs against the base plate. One or more shields may be placed in the base plate to shield the flame from wind and/or to direct heat from the flame and/or provide a platform for a cooking vessel as desired. A method of using the portable campfire is disclosed.
