Abstract: A burner assembly for a fireplace, comprising a fuel-metering plate, a fuel-delivery plenum and a dividing plate. The fuel metering plate has tines that form a combed structure in an uppermost portion of the fuel-metering plate, the combed structure extending along a long dimension of the fuel-metering plate. The fuel-delivery plenum has a fuel chamber and the fuel-delivery plenum being coupled to the fuel-metering plate such that the fuel chamber extends along the long dimension of the fuel metering plate. The dividing plate is located between the fuel-metering plate and the fuel-delivery plenum. The dividing plate has a slotted opening that extends along the long dimension of the fuel metering plate, the slotted opening being in fluid communication with individual channels between the tines and with the fuel chamber.

Abstract: The invention relates to heating units mounted on a window of an existing building. Flue gases are expelled outside of the building without the need for wall modifications or an extra chimney. The actual burn chamber is mounted on a window mounting unit with an interior support which extends into the building thereby heating the air inside the building.

Abstract: The invention relates to a plate for fireplace insert or stove, or equivalent, formed from at least one substrate made of a glass material comprising at least one reflective coating on at least one of its faces. The invention also relates to the process for manufacturing the plate and to the device that includes said plate.

Abstract: A heating device for mounting in a window opening, particularly useful for vehicles, camper shells, and other enclosures, which includes a mounting plate; air intake and exhaust tubes, a burner contained within a sealed housing, an external fuel source, and a connecting line between the fuel source and the burner. The lower portion of the mounting plate rests upon the window sill and an upper portion engages the outer surface of the window framework to make the device useable for both vertically and horizontally movable windows. The sealed housing, which includes a cooking surface, precludes noxious fumes or explosive fumes from escaping into the confines of the area being heated. The external fuel source, preferably a portable propane tank, rests on the ground outside the enclosure, as an additional safety factor. A heat deflector, pivotal over the top surface of the burner housing, disperses the heated air to prevent overheating of the ceiling and also serves as a safety guard.
