Abstract: To enable a burnpot for a corn burning stove to be continuously operated, the burnpot has an openable bottom with at least a first and second position, one of said at least fist and second positions being substantially closed to enable a body of combustible fuel to burn on its upper surface, the other of said at least first and second positions providing an opening, burnpot side wall portions and a top of said burnpot being shaped so as to permit a solid clinker to drop out of the opening in the openable bottom when the openable bottom is in its second position.
Abstract: To enable a burnpot for a corn burning stove to be continuously operated, the burnpot has either: (1) an openable bottom with at least a first and second position, one of the at least first and second positions being substantially closed to enable a body of combustible fuel to burn on its upper surface, the other of the at least first and second positions providing an opening, burnpot side wall portions and a top of the burnpot being shaped so as to permit a solid clinker to drop out of the opening in the openable bottom when the openable bottom is in its second position; or (2) a bottom formed as one of a series of sections of a rotatable member so that as the member rotates, it carries ash with it away from the bottom of the burnpot.
