A conversion ring for a portable fire pit allows the portable fire pit to be used within a block fire pit ring. If desired, the owner can remove the fire pit from the conversion ring and the block ring and use it in different locations. The conversion ring and the fire pit can lock together to limit rotational movement after installation. The conversion ring includes locking fingers that cooperate with elements of the fire pit. In one configuration, the locking fingers of the conversion ring cooperate with the legs of the fire pit when the fire pit is installed through the conversion ring.

A fireplace with a smart glass panel and use of a smart glass panel in a fireplace are provided. The fireplace comprises a heating mechanism, and a smart glass panel positioned proximate to the heating mechanism. The smart glass panel comprising a transparent pane, where at least a portion of the smart glass panel has optic or thermal transmission properties that may be altered between a first state and a second state.

The present disclosure relates to products and methods for modifying the reflection of a light source in a fireplace and other products.

A collapsible barbecue grill contains: a body, a connection holder, a first fixing mount, and a second fixing mount. The body includes an accommodation chamber for accommodating charcoals, the connection holder includes four slots defined on two opposite peripheral sides thereof, respectively, each of the four slots is located proximate to each of four corners of the connection holder. The first and second fixing mounts are fitted with two ends of the connection holder, respectively, wherein each of the first fixing mount and the second fixing mount includes two coupling bolts, and each of the two coupling bolts is fitted with said each slot. The first fixing mount also includes a first support segment arranged on a top thereof, and the second fixing mount also includes a second support segment arranged on a top thereof, hence the first support segment and the second support segment support the body.

A lighting system for an electric fireplace, and a fireplace assembly including such system, may include a plurality of logs arranged in different orientations and in different rows. Some of the logs may include a substantially planar surface facing forwards. A front projector may project a lighting effect onto the logs, including the substantially planar surfaces, and a rear projector may project a lighting effect onto a non-transparent screen positioned behind the plurality of logs. The lighting system desirably provides a realistic three-dimensional flame effect in conjunction with a log set having a natural, split-log appearance. Other features may be included to enhance the lighting system, including internal lights in the logs and in an ember bed, as well as coloration of the logs to enhance the lighting effects and the natural appearance of the logs.

A dual-fuel fireplace apparatus is described. In one example, an apparatus includes an enclosure having a door disposed thereon and a wood-burning compartment disposed within the enclosure. The wood-burning compartment has an insulated housing configured to support temperatures associated with burning of wood within the wood-burning compartment. A gas-burning compartment is also disposed within the enclosure and has a gas burner disposed therein. A mechanism including a motor is configured to cause movement between a first mode in which the wood-burning compartment is viewable through the door and a second mode in which the gas-burning compartment is viewable through the door.

A chemical plant may include one or more fired heaters for heating of process streams. A fired heater may include a direct-fired heat exchanger that uses the hot gases of combustion to raise the temperature of a process fluid feed flowing through tubes positioned within the heater. Fired heaters may deliver feed at a predetermined temperature to the next stage of the reaction process or perform reactions such as thermal cracking. Systems and methods are disclosed to optimize the performance of fired heaters or reduce energy consumption of fired heaters.

The invention relates to wood-burning ovens and may be used for preparing food, in particular, baked items, for example, pizza.

A combustion device includes a combustion chamber with an outer wall enclosing a combustion space that can contain a fuel source on an adjustable fuel rack, side walls, a lower air jet tube and at least one air upper jet tube, a top opening, a grill top assembly to cover the opening, and a detachable power module. The power module can have batteries and a blower. The blower can force ambient air into a manifold, through the jet tubes, through ports in the jet tubes, and into the combustion chamber.
