Abstract

A combustion device includes a first cover, a second cover, an infrared generating mesh, and a gas burner assembly, wherein the first cover has a plurality of through holes. A first half portion of the second cover has at least one hollow portion. A second half portion of the second cover is closed. The infrared generating mesh is disposed between the first cover and the second cover. A flame outlet of the gas burner assembly is located within a projection area of the second half portion. In this way, the intensity of the infrared rays generated by the combustion device could be increased and could be uniform.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A combustion device, comprising:
a first cover having a first outer surface and a first inner surface which face opposite directions, wherein a plurality of through holes penetrating through the first outer surface and the first inner surface are disposed on the first cover;
a second cover having a second outer surface and a second inner surface which face opposite directions, wherein the second cover is disposed on the first cover; a chamber is formed between the second inner surface and the first inner surface; the second cover is divided into a first half portion and a second half portion; at least one hollow portion penetrating through the second outer surface and the second inner surface is disposed on the first half portion; the second half portion is closed and corresponds to a part of the first cover wherein a portion of the plurality of through holes are disposed;
an infrared generating mesh disposed between the first cover and the second cover and located in the chamber, wherein the infrared generating mesh is heated by a flame to generate infrared rays, and the generated infrared rays emit through the plurality of through holes; and
a gas burner assembly having a flame outlet for burning gas to generate the flame to act on the infrared generating mesh, wherein the flame outlet is located within a projection area of the second half portion;
wherein the first cover has a first peripheral portion; the second cover has a second peripheral portion; the first peripheral portion is engaged with the second peripheral portion; the second peripheral portion is located on a first reference plane, and a second reference plane is defined on the first reference plane; the second reference plane passes a center of the first reference plane and is perpendicular to the first reference plane; the second cover is divided into the first half portion and the second half portion by the second reference plane; a third reference plane is defined on the first reference plane, wherein the third reference plane passes through the center of the first reference plane and is perpendicular to the first reference plane and the second reference plane; the second peripheral portion of the second cover has two opposite inner edges on the third reference plane; the two opposite inner edges are spaced by a first distance; a fourth reference plane is defined on the first reference plane, wherein the fourth reference plane is parallel to the second reference plane and is perpendicular to the third reference plane and passes through the first half portion; the fourth reference plane is apart from the second reference plane by a second distance; the second distance is a quarter of the first distance; the first half portion of the second cover is divided into a first sub-portion and a second sub-portion by the fourth reference plane; the at least one hollow portion is located at the first sub-portion; the second sub-portion is closed.

2. The combustion device of claim 1 , wherein the first cover has a first peripheral portion; the second cover has a second peripheral portion; the infrared generating mesh has a third peripheral portion; the first peripheral portion is engaged with the second peripheral portion, and the third peripheral portion is disposed between the first peripheral portion and the second peripheral portion.

3. The combustion device of claim 2 , further comprising a support, wherein the support comprises a first supporting plate, a second supporting plate, and a third supporting plate; the third supporting plate is located between the first supporting plate and the second supporting plate; the second cover is fixed on the first supporting plate; the gas burner assembly is fixed on the second supporting plate; at least one of the first peripheral portion and the second peripheral portion is fixed on the third supporting plate.

4. The combustion device of claim 1 , further comprising a support, wherein the support comprises a first supporting plate, a second supporting plate, and a third supporting plate; the third supporting plate is located between the first supporting plate and the second supporting plate; the second cover is fixed on the first supporting plate at a junction of the second reference plane and the third reference plane; the gas burner assembly is fixed on the second supporting plate, and at least one of the first peripheral portion and the second peripheral portion is fixed on the third supporting plate.

5. The combustion device of claim 1 , wherein the first half portion comprises a plurality of hollow portions, and the hollow portions are holes; a number of hollow portions gradually increases in a direction away from the fourth reference plane.

6. The combustion device of claim 1 , wherein the first half portion comprises a plurality of hollow portions, and the hollow portions are holes; a number of hollow portions gradually increases in a direction away from the second half portion.

7. The combustion device of claim 1 , wherein a mesh density per unit area of the infrared ray generating net is greater than a density of the plurality of through holes per unit area of the first cover.

8. The combustion device of claim 1 , wherein the second inner surface of the second cover is adapted to reflect the infrared rays generated by the infrared generating mesh toward the first cover.
