Problems solved by technology

This can be done by temporary means, the disadvantage of which is that the configuration gets messed up during transport of the furnace, or permanent means, where the "fuel" is permanently adhered to the furnace using adhesives etc. Support matrix
This is a tedious operation and also results in only a single set of fuel beds for each electric fire which necessarily does not provide the desired overall aesthetic or consistency of quality

Embodiment Construction

[0029] The present invention will now be described by way of exemplary embodiments of the invention.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 1 , the electric furnace 100 is made from a plurality of subassemblies 105 . The subassemblies 105 are each formed from individual plastic molded parts, each of which is configured to enable the subassemblies to be snapped together to form the finished electric fire. In the embodiment of FIG. 1 four such subassemblies 105a, 105b, 105c, 105d are provided. By forming an electric furnace from such an assembly, the time required to fully assemble the electric furnace is reduced from about 80 minutes to about 20 minutes, enabling the subassembly method to be fabricated in the time normally required to make an electric furnace using the teachings of the prior art. into 4 electric stoves.

[0031] In the embodiment shown in the exploded view of FIG. 1 , a number of components can be identified. These components can be distinguished into different categorie...

Abstract

An electric fire is described. By providing the fire in plastic and forming it from a kit of individual housings that inter-engage with one another to form the completed fire the time required for assembly of the fire is reduced greatly. Also described is a spacer arrangement for a fire, for use in circumstances where the fire is too small for the opening which it is to be located in. Also described is a reflector screen formed using a hot foil stamping technique. Finally, a moulded fuel bed is described which can be used to simulate pebble or glass effects.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electric furnace. In a first embodiment, the present invention relates to an electric fire provided as a kit of parts, more particularly to an electric fire made from molded plastic components. In another embodiment, the invention is directed to a reflective screen for an electric fire that provides a visual display of flames. In yet another embodiment, the invention relates to a fuel bed for an electric furnace. Background technique [0002] In the field of electric furnaces, it is known to provide different shapes and forms of electric furnaces. Typically, electric fires are provided as an alternative to traditional "real" fires, in which case the fire must be sized to fit into an opening provided in the fireplace. Fireplaces are primarily installed by electric furnace buyers, i.e. not by skilled installers of such units. Although the size of the fireplace opening is relatively fixed, there is always the possib...
