| (54) | BURNER FOR BURNING GASEOUS FUEL |
| (57) Disclosed in the present invention is a burner for burning gaseous fuel. The burner
includes a gas intake port, several horizontal portions, and several inclined portions.
One end of each inclined portion located at a lower position is connected and fixed
to one end of a horizontal portion, and the other ends of all the horizontal portions
are connected to each other either directly or by means of a combustion chamber main
body. The horizontal portions, the inclined portions, and the combustion chamber main
body each have an internally hollow structure and are in communication with each other.
The inclined portions are inclined upwardly at an angle ∠α with respect to the horizontal
portions, and the inclined portions and the horizontal portions are combined into
the shape of a three-dimensional geometric space. The gas intake port is provided
at the very bottom of the burner and is in communication with the interior of the
burner. First flame holes are provided in the horizontal portions, second flame holes
are provided in the inclined portions, and third flame holes are provided in the combustion
chamber main body. When a gaseous fuel is introduced and ignited, flames burn in each
of the combustion chamber main body, the horizontal portions, and the inclined portions,
thereby forming a flame effect in a three-dimensional (3D) form.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of burners, and relates specifically to a burner for a gaseous fuel-burning fireplace.
BACKGROUND ART
[0002] In recent years, fireplaces having dual functions of decoration and heating have become increasingly popular, especially real-fire gas fireplaces and real-fire alcohol fireplaces which have become a first choice for decoration and heating in the home due to their clean and hygienic use, stable combustion, and high thermal efficiency utilization. In order to make combustion sufficient and easy to control in real-fire alcohol fireplaces, generally, a liquid alcohol fuel is vaporized and then introduced into a burner for combustion.
[0003] However, basically all of the burners for burning gaseous fuel currently available on the market have flames directly burning on metallic burners, or have an elongated shape or a circular shape. The burners are flat, the flames are relatively rigid and insufficiently lively, and there is no graduated feeling. Furthermore, there is a lack of decoration of simulated solid fuels and lack of harmonious correspondence between flames and fuels, and there is an unnatural feeling that flames appear out of nowhere. Even if a mode in which a plurality of burners are combined to form a flame appears on the market, it is necessary to separately introduce gaseous fuel for combustion. The structure is complicated, and the installation is complicated.

[0008] Further, the burner further comprises several simulated solid fuels, wherein the simulated solid fuels are provided with textures and colors simulating real solid fuels, and the simulated solid fuels are fastened to the inclined portions.
[0009] Further, the inclined portions are provided with supporting surfaces which may be used to support the simulated solid fuels.
[0010] Further, when two horizontal portions are provided, the two horizontal portions may be arranged opposite to each other and connected to each other so as to form one body.
[0011] Further, the number of horizontal portions is greater than or equal to three, and the burner for burning gaseous fuel according to the present invention further comprises a combustion chamber main body connecting all the horizontal portions together, wherein the combustion chamber main body has a hollow structure and is provided in the middle of all the horizontal portions, the horizontal portions are arranged around the circumference of the combustion chamber main body, and spacing between any two of the horizontal portions may be the same or different; the gas intake port is provided in a bottom surface of the combustion chamber main body, the gas intake port communicates with an interior of the combustion chamber main body, and the interior of the combustion chamber main body communicates with the interior of the horizontal portions; and the combustion chamber main body is provided with a plurality of third flame holes.

[0014] Further, when the burner is mounted on a product, the bottom of the burner may be provided with pebbles and/or crystal stones and/or crushed glass and/or simulated charcoal beds and simulated solid fuels for decoration, which are used to simulate the structure of a carbon bed after a real solid fuel is burned and may cover the combustion chamber main body and/or the horizontal portions, so that it looks more beautiful and realistic as a whole.
Basic principle of the present invention:
[0016] During the operation of the present invention, gaseous fuel or the fuel obtained by gasifying liquid fuel is introduced into the interior of the burner through the gas intake port, diffused into the combustion chamber main body and/or the interior of the horizontal portions and the inclined portions, and further emitted from the first flame holes, the second flame holes and the third flame holes. Then, when flames are ignited, the flames are burning on each of the combustion chamber main body and/or the horizontal portions and the inclined portions, thereby forming a flame effect in a three-dimensional (3D) form.
