BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates generally to a portable gas stove equipped with a dual-layered
cover and, more particularly, to a portable gas stove equipped with a dual-layered
cover, which is capable of preventing an accident in which a gas can explodes due
to increased pressure within the gas can attributable to the overheating of the gas
can because the upper side of the gas can is overheated by heat from an excessive
hot grill or the heat is transferred to the gas can through a boundary surface on
the burner unit side of a housing and a gas can reception unit when the excessive
hot grill is used in an existing portable gas stove.
2. Description of the Related Art
[0002] The present invention relates to a portable gas stove equipped with a dual-layered
cover.
[0003] In general, a portable gas stove using flammable liquefied butane gas charged in
a disposable gas can as fuel is one of a variety of types of cookware which is usefully
used in the open air in addition to the interiors, such as homes or restaurants, because
it has a relatively small volume and light weight and can be easily carried. Liquefied
butane gas is usefully used that much, but careful attention must be paid in order
to use liquefied butane gas vulnerable to heat and pressure it is easily expanded
by heat and has a danger of a possible explosion. The most dangerous accident when
the portable gas stove is used is an explosion accident attributable to the overheating
of a disposable gas can in which flammable liquefied butane gas is filled in the nature
of liquefied butane gas as described above. Accordingly, special attention must be
paid because the explosion force of liquefied butane gas expanded by heat corresponds
to an explosion which may kill or injure people around 10 m or more. One of the causes
of the generation of most accidents attributable to the explosion of the disposable
gas can may include the use of an excessive hot grill. If a hot grill or a frying
pan is placed higher than the top of a gas can reception unit in which the disposable
gas can is received, the upper side of the disposable gas can is overheated by heat
from the excessive hot grill or the heat is transferred to the disposable gas can
through a boundary surface on the burner unit side of a housing and the gas can reception
unit. Accordingly, there is a problem in that an accident in which the gas can explodes
because pressure within the gas can is increased due to the overheating of the gas
can.

[0010] The merits and characteristics of the present invention and a method for achieving
the merits and characteristics will become more apparent from embodiments described
in detail later in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0011] However, the present invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but may
be implemented in various different ways. The embodiments are provided to only complete
the disclosure of the present invention and to allow those skilled in the art to understand
the category of the present invention. The present invention is defined by the category
of the claims. The same reference numbers will be used to refer to the same or similar
parts throughout the drawings.
[0012] Hereinafter, a portable gas stove equipped with a dual-layered cover 110 according
to embodiments of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying
drawings.
[0013] FIG. 1 shows an example in which an excessive hot grill is used in an existing portable
gas stove. When the excessive hot grill is used in the existing portable gas stove,
the upper side of a gas can is overheated by heat from the excessive hot grill. Alternatively,
the heat is transferred to the gas can through the burner unit 200 and a boundary
surface between the burner unit 200 and a gas can reception unit 100, thereby overheating
the gas can. Accordingly, pressure within the gas can may be increased, thus generating
an accident in which the gas can explodes.
[0014] FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing the moving route of radiation heat in the
dual-layered cover 110 of the gas can reception unit according to an embodiment of

[0016] In the gas can reception unit 100, the dual-layered cover 110 having a top surface
portion formed of a dual layer 111 is installed in such a way as to be open and shut,
and a gas can is attached to or detached from the gas can reception unit 100.
[0017] The burner unit 200 is supplied with fuel from the gas can mounted on the gas can
reception unit 100 and ignited.
[0018] In this case, one side of the dual layer 111 which comes into contact with the burner
unit 200 is sealed and one or more first through holes 115 are formed in the other
side of the dual layer 111 so that heat within the dual layer 111 is discharged to
the first through holes 115.
[0019] Accordingly, when an excessive hot grill is used in a portable gas stove, the upper
side of a gas can can be prevented from being overheated by heat from the excessive
hot grill.

110 according to an embodiment of the present invention, which is seen from the back.
[0021] Furthermore, the burner unit 200 includes a partition 210 and a second through hole
215. The partition 210 is formed in a face coming into contact with the gas can reception
unit 100. The partition 210 functions to block heat generated from the burner unit
200 from reaching the gas can reception unit 100. The one or more second through holes
215 are perforated and formed in the remaining faces other than the face coming into
contact with the gas can reception unit 100. The second through hole 215 functions
to externally discharge heat generated from the burner unit 200.
[0022] Furthermore, the dual-layered cover 110 further includes one or more second through
holes 215 formed in a side portion hinged with the gas can reception unit 100.
[0023] Accordingly, when an excessive hot grill is used in a portable gas stove, the portable
gas stove equipped with the dual-layered cover 110 can be provided, which can prevent
a gas can from being overheated because heat is transferred to the gas can through
the burner unit 200 and a boundary surface between the burner unit 200 and the gas
can reception unit 100.
[0024] As described above, the present invention can provide the portable gas stove equipped
with the dual-layered cover, which is capable of preventing the upper side of a gas
can from being overheated by heat from an excessive hot grill when the excessive hot
grill is used in the portable gas stove.
[0025] Furthermore, the present invention can provide the portable gas stove equipped with
