Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0057109A1] A fire place (1) consists of a housing (2) into which flame simulating apparatus (3) is built. This includes a light source (4) viewed through a diffuser screen (7) by means of a reflective element (6). Various alternative arrangements are described for the diffuser screen (7), reflective element (6) and light elements (5), by means of which effective simulation of wood flames, gas flames and coal flames may all be achieved.
