Automatic ash discharge device for a burner
An automatic ash discharge device for a burner has a furnace base, a duct set, and a discharge set. The furnace base has a combustion chamber, a mounting opening, a discharge mouth, two guiding faces, and multiple inlet holes. The combustion chamber is formed in the furnace base. The guiding faces are formed aslant in the furnace base. The inlet holes are formed through the guiding faces. The duct set is connected to the furnace base and has two casings and a blower. The casings are mounted on the furnace base respectively corresponding to the guiding faces and communicate with the combustion chamber. The blower communicates with the casings. The discharge set is connected to the furnace base and has a receiving tank connected to the furnace base and communicating with the combustion chamber, and a discharge shaft rotatably mounted in the receiving tank.
1. An automatic ash discharge device for a burner having:
a furnace base having
a top side;
a bottom side;
an inner surface;
an outer surface;
a combustion chamber formed in the furnace base between the bottom side and the top side of the furnace base and used as an ash collection space;
a mounting opening formed through the top side of the furnace base and communicating with the combustion chamber;
a discharge mouth formed through the bottom side of the furnace base, communicating with the combustion chamber, and having two sides;
two guiding faces formed aslant on the inner surface of the furnace base between the mounting opening and the discharge mouth beside the two sides of the discharge mouth; and
multiple inlet holes formed through the outer surface of the furnace base and the guiding faces at spaced intervals;
a duct set connected to the furnace base and having
two casings securely mounted on the outer surface of the furnace base, respectively corresponding to the two guiding faces of the furnace base, and communicating with the combustion chamber via the inlet holes;
a blower communicating with the casings to enable external air to transmit into the combustion chamber of the furnace base via the casings and the inlet holes at the guiding faces; and
a connecting pipe connected to the casings and the blower and having
two ends respectively connected to the casings; and
a middle;
wherein the blower is mounted on the middle of the connecting pipe and communicates with the casings via the ends of the connecting pipe;
a discharge set connected to the furnace base below the duct set and having
a receiving tank securely connected to the bottom side of the furnace base under the discharge mouth, and communicating with the combustion chamber of the furnace base via the discharge mouth; and
a discharge shaft rotatably mounted in the receiving tank.
2. The automatic ash discharge device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein
the furnace base is a seat that is tapered from a top to a bottom of the seat;
