Abstract: Disclosed is a wind-resistant heating device using a non-electric source. To this end, a non-electric heating body is received in the inner lower part of a main casing of a wind-resistant heating device. Air supply holes for supplying air for combustion are formed in the main casing. An upper opening for upward discharging heat generated when the non-electric heating body is combusted is formed in the main casing. Wind-resistant casings are spaced apart at a specific interval on the inside or outside of the main casing, thus preventing a head wind from flowing into the air supply holes of the main casing. Accordingly, although a head wind flows into the air supply holes of the main casing or the heating device is carried and moved, air can be changed into a flow of air to enable continuous combustion.
