Patent number: 11808461Abstract: A radiant heating assembly including a burner for heating a heat exchanger and a reflector generally disposed about the heat exchanger. The reflector comprising a base defining a first air chamber. The reflector may also comprise one or more wings removably coupled to the base. The wings may be configured to define a second air chamber. The radiant heating assembly may also comprise an air circulation pump configured to draw air through the air chamber of the base and/or wing and provide the air to the burner to improve the efficiency of the combustion process.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2020Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: Detroit Radiant Products CompanyInventors: Joseph A Wortman, Kevin L. Blissett, Kenneth L. Bachorski, Alex P. Napolitan

Patent number: 4390125Abstract: The tube-fired radiant heating system is of the type where an elongated tube is heated by hot gases of combustion which are passed. The heated tube radiates heat to the space to be heated therethrough.A burner is provided at one end of the tube to burn an air/fuel mixture. The products of combustion are forced through the tube by means of a blower provided at the tube inlet. Burning takes place within the tube. A tubular stream of air is constantly passed over the flame to protect the tube from the high heat of combustion.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 1981Date of Patent: June 28, 1983Assignee: Detroit Radiant Products CompanyInventor: Mario Rozzi
