  • Patent number: 4489707
    Abstract: A gas fire comprises a fire bed made of refractory material with a plurality of holes therein, mounted within a combustion chamber so as to divide the combustion chamber into an upper and a lower portion, gas burners mounted so as to direct flames substantially across the upper surface of the fire bed, and a heat exchanger with a primary and secondary section, and respectively, to provide extended circulation of combustion products. Inlet of the heat exchanger is located at the rear wall of the lower portion of the combustion chamber, so that combustion products are drawn through the holes into the lower portion for entry into the heat exchanger. Simulated solid fuel elements are supported on a grid above the fire bed.

  • Patent number: 4361131
    Abstract: A circulating air wood burning heating stove/fireplace combination has a combustion chamber for burning fuel. The combustion chamber is in the form of a shell defined by inner walls of the stove and a rearwardly disposed air outlet manifold. Spaced outer auxiliary back and top walls and the corresponding shell walls form therebetween air passages through which ambient air is recirculated into the room over the manifold. The manifold is provided with a plurality of spaced heat conductive metal strips disposed about its periphery. An air inlet is provided at the bottom of the back air passage and an electric fan or blower is attached to the inlet to force air into the back air passage.
