Abstract

There is disclosed a fuel-based heater including a fuel reservoir for storing fuel, a combustor for burning the fuel received from the fuel reservoir, and a security device for cutting the supply of the fuel to the combustor from the fuel reservoir when the temperature of the combustor goes up to a limit so that the temperature of the combustor can go down.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A fuel-based heater comprising: 
 a fuel reservoir for storing fuel;    a combustor for burning the fuel received from the fuel reservoir;    a security device for cutting the supply of the fuel to the combustor from the fuel reservoir when the temperature of the combustor goes up to a limit so that the temperature of the combustor can go down.    
   
   
       2 . The fuel-based heater according to  claim 1  wherein the security device restores the supply of the fuel to the combustor from the fuel reservoir when the temperature of the combustor goes down to a working point at which the combustion of the fuel begins automatically.  
   
   
       3 . The fuel-based heater according to  claim 2  wherein the security device comprises a fuel regulator provided between the fuel reservoir and the combustor, a thermal sensor put close to the combustor, and a controller for controlling the fuel regulator and the thermal sensor.  
   
   
       4 . The fuel-based heater according to  claim 3  comprising an igniter for igniting the fuel in the combustor.  
   
   
       5 . The fuel-based heater according to  claim 4  comprising a switch connected to the controller.  
   
   
       6 . The fuel-based heater according to  claim 5  wherein the controller actuates the igniter in order to generate sparks continuously as the switch is maneuvered.  
   
   
       7 . The fuel-based heater according to  claim 6  wherein the controller stops the igniter on determining that the temperature of the combustor goes up to an ignition-stop point.  
   
   
       8 . The fuel-based heater according to  claim 7  wherein the ignition-stop point is the ignition point of the fuel.  
   
   
       9 . The fuel-based heater according to  claim 7  wherein the ignition-stop point is higher than the ignition point of the fuel.  
   
   
       10 . The fuel-based heater according to  claim 3  comprising a mixer provided between the fuel regulator and the combustor for mixing the fuel with air.  
   
   
       11 . The fuel-based heater according to  claim 10  comprising a fan for propelling the air to the mixer.  
   
   
       12 . The fuel-based heater according to  claim 11  wherein the fan is connected to the controller electrically so that the controller actuates the fan when the switched is maneuvered.  
   
   
       13 . A dryer comprising the fuel-based heater according to  claim 1 .  
   
   
       14 . A hair dryer comprising the fuel-based heater according to  claim 1 .  
   
   
       15 . A hair curler comprising the fuel-based heater according to  claim 1 .  
   
   
       16 . An iron comprising the fuel-based heater according to  claim 1 .  
   
   
       17 . A dryer comprising the fuel-based heater according to  claim 1.
