Abstract

A burning device includes a body and an air amplifier mounted in the body. The air amplifier includes a fuel channel between an inlet and an outlet of the air amplifier. The fuel channel includes an intermediate section between an inlet section and an outlet section. A width of the inlet section gradually decreases from the inlet towards the intermediate section. A width of the outlet section gradually increases from the intermediate section towards the outlet. A width of the intermediate section is smaller than the width of the inlet section and the width of the outlet section. The air amplifier includes a plurality of side channels. Each side channel extends along an extending axis not intersecting with a longitudinal axis of the fuel gas channel and includes an inner end intercommunicating with the fuel channel and an outer end intercommunicating with an outer periphery of the air amplifier.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A burning device with an air amplifier, comprising:
a body;
an air amplifier mounted in the body, wherein the air amplifier includes an inlet and an outlet opposite to the inlet, wherein the air amplifier includes a fuel channel extending along a longitudinal axis and having two ends respectively connected to the inlet and the outlet, wherein the fuel channel includes an inlet section adjacent to the inlet and an outlet section adjacent to the outlet, wherein the fuel channel further includes an intermediate section between the inlet section and the outlet section, wherein each of the inlet section, the intermediate section, and the outlet section has a width in a width direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, wherein the width of the inlet section gradually decreases from the inlet towards the intermediate section, wherein the width of the outlet section gradually increases from the intermediate section towards the outlet, wherein the width of the intermediate section is smaller than the width of the inlet section and the width of the outlet section, wherein the air amplifier includes a plurality of side channels, wherein each of the plurality of side channels extends along an extending axis not intersecting with the longitudinal axis, and wherein each of the plurality of side channels includes an inner end intercommunicating with the fuel channel and an outer end intercommunicating with an outer periphery of the air amplifier;
an extension tube having a first end connected to the outlet of the air amplifier;
a self-cooling device including a central zone and a peripheral zone, wherein the peripheral zone surrounds the central zone about the longitudinal axis, wherein the extension tube further includes a second end opposite to the air amplifier and connected to the self-cooling device, wherein the extension tube is configured to blow out a large portion of a mixture of air and a fuel gas via the central zone, and wherein the peripheral zone includes a side opposite to the extension tube and is configured to suck air via the side thereof.

2. The burning device with an air amplifier as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the extension tube has an inner width in the width direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, and wherein the inner width of the extension tube is equal to a maximum width of the outlet section in the width direction.

3. The burning device with an air amplifier as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of side channels passively introduces air from an outside of the air amplifier.

4. The burning device with an air amplifier as claimed in claim 3 , wherein each of the plurality of side channels intercommunicates with the outlet section of the fuel channel.

5. The burning device with an air amplifier as claimed in claim 4 , wherein a spacing between the outer end of each of the plurality of side channels and the inlet along the longitudinal axis is smaller than a spacing between the inner end of each of the plurality of side channels and the inlet along the longitudinal axis.

6. The burning device with an air amplifier as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the body includes a fuel gas supplier and a trigger connected to the fuel gas supplier, wherein the trigger is configured to control opening and closing of the fuel gas supplier, and wherein the inlet of the air amplifier is connected to the fuel gas supplier.
