The present invention discloses a flame simulating device, comprising a mist generating chamber, an atomizing head, an air orifice and a nozzle. The inside of the mist generating chamber is provided with a liquid and the atomizing head, the atomizing head being capable of atomizing the liquid inside the mist generating chamber, the two sides of the nozzle being set as Coanda curved surfaces, the cross section of the air orifice being in a constricted shape and providing an air flow blown upward such that under the Venturi effect, the air flow blown upward will guide and attract the mist from inside the mist generating chamber to vent out and flow into a nozzle inlet; the upper surface of the mist generating chamber is provided with a breathing port, and the breathing port directly faces the atomizing head. Due to the Coanda curved surface on the side of the nozzle, the mist flows along both sides of the nozzle under the Coanda effect and then vents out of the nozzle.

The present invention provides an artificial fireplace for displaying an artificial fire pattern. The fireplace comprises a housing, defining an interior and comprising at least one opening to allow a line of sight into the interior, a semi-transparent mirror, which is arranged in the interior and which comprises a first side, facing the opening, and an opposite second side, facing away from the opening. The fireplace further comprises a first display device, which is arranged in the housing and which is configured to display a first video of flames, towards the first side of the semi-transparent mirror, and a second display device, which is arranged in the housing and which is configured to display a second video towards the second side of the semi-transparent mirror. The semi-transparent mirror is arranged to at least partially reflect the first video of flames at its first side and to at least partially transmit the second video at its second side, in order to recombine the first video of flames and the second video into the artificial fire pattern, such that the artificial fire pattern is visible along the line of sight.

A faux fireplace having a controller generating an imitation log crackling sound synchronized to an ember flicker of a faux log. The faux fireplace includes a video display displaying a video flame having releasing embers based on a video loop stored as a video file in memory. The controller generates the imitation log crackling sound for the displayed releasing embers as well. The type of crackling sounds and the volume of the crackling sound are different for each of the faux logs to create an authentic visual and audio experience. The ember flickers are generated by lighting associated with each of the faux logs.

A faux fireplace including memory having a video file that is selectively provided by a user. The video file includes a video of a faux flame. The video file can be wirelessly uploaded by a user into the memory of the faux fireplace from a wireless device. The video file can be stored on memory selectively removeable and replaceable by a user. The wireless input device can be a remote control and a smart mobile device running an application.

Provided is a flame simulating device including a light source, a rotary light-transmitter, an imaging plate, a swing shelf and a driving component; the light source emits a first light group; the first light group is projected to the light-transmitter to form a second light group; the light source is disposed on the swing shelf, and the driving component drives the swing shelf to swing around the light-transmitter. An electric fireplace is also disclosed.

A flame simulating assembly is provided with a reflected flickering light that includes only one light source. Light from the light source passes though a rotating flicker element onto one or more reflectors, or mirrors, that reflect light up onto a simulated fuel bed and the some of the light is reflected off of the flicker elements towards a flame screen to create a simulated flame. The clipping flicker elements creates a fluttering light effect due to the flicker elements “intermittently dipping” into the light path. This fluctuating light is reflected onto the logs and ember bed in front and creates a dancing effect, which simulates glowing embers.

Provided is an electric fireplace including a fireplace cabinet which is provided with a window, simulated fuel and an imaging plate disposed in the fireplace cabinet; the fireplace includes a spark simulating device, and the spark simulating device includes a light source and light pipes; the light-receiving ends of the light pipes are fixed oppositely to the light source to receive light from the light source, and light spots are formed at the light-emitting ends of the light pipes; the light-emitting ends of the light pipes are disposed on the simulated fuel and the imaging plate.

Provided is a flame simulating device including a light source, a rotary light-transmitter, an imaging plate and a swing unit; the light source emits a first light group; the first light group is projected to the light-transmitter to form a second light group; the light source is disposed on the swing unit, and the swing unit drives the light source to move relatively around the light-transmitter.

A flame effect device (18) for a flame simulator apparatus of an electric fire (10) is provided. The flame effect device (18) comprises a spindle (20) having a longitudinal axis which is in-use rotatable in a flame simulator apparatus; and a plurality of reflector supports (22a,22b,22c,22d,22e), each reflector support (22a,22b,22c,22d,22e) comprising: a reflector support body (32) having at least one reflector mounting portion (28) thereon and a mounting aperture (34) to engage the reflector support (22a,22b,22c,22d,22e) with the spindle (20); and at least one reflector (26) to reflect light from an associated light source (24), wherein the at least one reflector (26) is mounted to the at least one reflector mounting portion (28), the plurality of reflector supports (22a,22b,22c,22d,22e) being engageable with the spindle (20), each reflector support (22a,22b,22c,22d,22e) of the plurality of reflector supports (22a,22b,22c,22d,22e) being selectably positionable along the longitudinal axis of the spindle (20).

The present invention discloses a streamer type flame simulation device, which includes a casing, some cross-flow fans disposed inside the casing, a first streamer, a second streamer, a supplementary air-supplying device and a light source. The supplementary air-supplying device is arranged in the split joint area between the two cross-flow fans. In the present invention, since a supplementary air-supplying device is provided between two cross-flow fans for supplying air, the deficiency where air was unable to deliver at the space occupied by the drive motor of the cross-flow fans can be avoided. Various parts of the first streamer and the second streamer can be blown, thus preventing the flame from being cut off and enhancing the overall coordination, which greatly improves the viewing effect of the flame area.
