20080227041 | LOG SETS AND LIGHTING DEVICES THEREFOR - In certain embodiments, a log assembly includes one or more substantially noncombustible logs. The assembly can include a frame configured to support at least one of the logs. The frame can include a base portion configured to rest on a floor. The base portion can define a lower spatial extent of the assembly. In some embodiments, the log assembly includes a burner coupled with the frame. The burner can be configured to produce a flame. The assembly can include a fuel delivery system substantially above the lower spatial extent defined by the base portion of the frame. The system can be configured to receive fuel from a fuel source and to supply fuel to the burner. The log assembly can include a lighting housing coupled with the frame, with substantially all of the lighting housing above the lower spatial extent defined by the base portion of the frame. One or more light sources can be coupled with the lighting housing. | 09-18-2008 |
20090142718 | ARTIFICIAL ACETYLENE GAS CANDLE - An improved artificial candle having an exterior appearance of a traditional wax candle, but which provides illumination by means of producing and burning acetylene gas. | 06-04-2009 |
20100151398 | GAS FIRE EMBER ELEMENT - A gas fire ember element comprises a bundle of wire of a heat and oxidation resistant metal (Fecralloy® or Nichrome®, for example). The density of wire in the bundle is so loose (between 0.01 and 0.1% by total volume of the bundle) that burning gas percolates through it. The wire has a filament cross section of between 500 μm2 and 8,000 μm2. so that it quickly glows and stops glowing as it is heated or not heated by flickering gas flame. The bundle can be hollow, said wire being confined to a surface region of the bundle having a thickness between 50 μm and 5,000 μm. Either the density of wire in the surface region is between 0.01% and 0.1% by total volume of the surface region, or a projection of the wire in the surface region occupies between 0.01% and 0.1% by total area of said projection. The wire in the surface region may be a mesh. | 06-17-2010 |
20100209860 | 3D Flexible Simulated Carbon Bed and Electric Fireplace with 3D Flexible Simulated Carbon Bed - The present invention relates to a stereo flexible charcoal bed and an electric fireplace with a flexible charcoal bed comprising a vessel with at least one transparent bottom, a number of charcoals disposed in the vessel comprising a number of movable light-holding charcoals with a plurality of transparent surfaces, an imaging mechanism disposed on the charcoals. The essential effect of the present invention is to solve the monotone charcoal flame, bad sense of stereo and poor visual effect of the exiting electric fireplace, meanwhile, the problems such as bad simulative effect, and lack of reality and the sense of stereo are solved as well. The charcoal flame structure of the present invention could change arbitrarily and the light-spots of burning flame are sparkling intermittently with bright and shade. The visual effect and the authenticity are both perfect. | 08-19-2010 |
20100239990 | Vertical Manifold Burner - A gas burner assembly includes a first sheet, a second sheet, and a conduit. The first sheet has an inner face, an outer face, an upper portion, and a lower portion. The second sheet also has an inner face, an outer face, an upper portion and a lower portion. The first and second sheets are secured relative to one another such that the first and second sheets are separated by a gap that defines a manifold between the inner faces of the first and second sheets with an elongate opening between the upper portions of the first and second sheets, the opening forming an outlet from the manifold. The conduit is in communication with the manifold, the conduit being adapted for connection to a source of gas. | 09-23-2010 |
20130071798 | FAUX CANDLE FIREPLACE INSERT WITH HEATING CAPACITY - The present invention relates to a fireplace insert for a gas fireplace wherein the traditional gas fireplace logs are replaced by faux candles with gas flame wicks wherein at least one candle has a heating element, besides the wicks, in the body of the candle to produce heat from the fireplace. | 03-21-2013 |
