Abstract (en)
[origin: US6336450B1] A terrace heating device includes a reflector (7) for reflecting rising heat from a heater (8) downward toward patrons on a terrace. An umbrella-like cover (10) is arranged on a support pole above the heater. The umbrella-like cover is articulable between an open position (FIG. 2b) and a closed position (FIG. 2a). The open position corresponds to a position of use in which the umbrella-like cover traps heat, holding the heat close to the patrons. In use, the umbrella-like cover is opened and the heater turned on to heat the space underneath the umbrella-like cover. The closed position corresponds to a storage position in which the umbrella-like cover folds about the support pole and a safety switch turns off the heater automatically. The umbrella-like cover is preferably defined by a detachable material for the cover which material is selected in accordance with the season, e.g., insulated for winter.
