Abstract (en)

Disclosed herein is a far infrared heater using biofuel. The far infrared heater includes a fuel combustion unit (110), a far infrared transmission window (120), a thermal power controller (130) and an automatic extinguishing unit (140). The fuel combustion unit burns a biofuel stored therein to generate heat. The far infrared transmission window surrounds the fuel combustion unit to prevent flames generated by burning the biofuel from being exposed to the outside. The far infrared transmission window allows far infrared rays generated from the heat source to be radiated to the outside through the far infrared transmission window. The thermal power controller adjusts the degree to which the opening formed in the fuel combustion unit opens and thus controls the thermal power of the heater. The automatic extinguishing unit automatically closes the opening of the fuel combustion unit when the heater vibrates or tilts thus preventing the biofuel from burning or leaking.
