Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a fume-exhausting apparatus, in particular for chimneys and fireplaces, having the features recited in the preamble of
claim 1. - It is known that chimneys, fireplaces and similar structures do not always have a satisfactory and appropriate draught, that is a capacity of appropriately conveying and drawing fumes into a flue. In fact, sometimes fume vortices and refluxes towards the room where a fireplace is located may be created, due either to the presence of excess smoke in the hearth, for example when some foods are being barbecued, or to an imperfect design and construction of the fireplaces themselves.
- Under the foregoing and other similar situations, for example when particular weather conditions are present or, above all, at the initial ignition step, when the operating temperatures of the flue do not correspond to those provided for a steady state operation, fumes do not succeed in overcoming the upper hood restriction at the point where said hood is connected to the flue and therefore tend to invade the inner environment or room in which the chimney or fireplace is located.
- The document FR-A- 2 467 358, which is herein referred as the most relevant state of the art, teaches to provide, in a chimney comprising a hearth and a hood for collecting fumes to be sent to a flue, a number of channels having lower openings directed downwardly close to the lower inlet mouth of the hood and upper openings directed upwardly and communicating with the lower end of the flue. An air stream is drived around the conveying channel and blown into the room, in such a manner to provide a heat recovering from the fumes.
- US Patent n. 4,100,913 teches to provide conveying channels extending from the upper portion of the hood and entering the lower end of the flue. Also in this document the conveying channels are arranged for providing a heat recevering by an air stream passing around the channels itselves.
- Also US Patent n. 2,277,381 teaches to provide conveying channels extending from the upper portion of the hood and arranged for providing a heat recevering from the fumes, by an air stream blow around the channels itselves.
- Under this situation the technical task underlying the present invention is to provide a fume-exhausting apparatus, in particular for chimneys and fireplaces, capable of substantially eliminating the above drawbacks.
- Within the scope of this technical task it is an important object of the present invention to devise a fume-exhausting apparatus capable of enabling the natural draught of a chimney or fireplace to be increased to an important amount without resorting to the use of fans or similar power-driven exhausting devices, so that under any circumstances all smoke emissions into the room where the chimney or fireplace is located can be avoided.
- The technical task mentioned and the object specified are substantially achieved by a fume-exhausting apparatus, in particular for chimneys and fireplaces, which is characterized in that it comprises the features recited in the characterizing portion of
claim 1. - The description of some preferred embodiments of a fume-exhausting apparatus according to the invention is given hereinafter by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of one embodiment of the apparatus of the invention fitted in a chimney;
- Fig. 2 is a side view partly in section of another embodiment of the apparatus having the features of the claimed fume-exhausting apparatus;
- Fig. 3 is a perspective and partly cut-away view of the apparatus shown in Fig. 2.
- Referring to the drawings, the fume-exhausting apparatus according to the invention has been generally identified by
reference numeral 1. - The
apparatus 1 is adapted to be fitted in a chimney or fireplace of a conventional type known per se comprising ahearth 2, ahood 3 for collecting the fumes produced on the heart, and aflue 4. It comprises a plurality ofchannels 5 for conveying fumes, located above thehearth 2 and therefore extending within thehood 3. Theconveying channels 5 exhibitlower openings 5a directed downwardly, disposed close to, or at all events communicating with, the lower inlet mouth 3a of thehood 3, andupper openings 5b directed upwardly and disposed close to a lower end 4a of theflue 4, so that they are affected by a draught effect created thereinto. - As a whole, the transverse section of the
conveying channels 5 has an area corresponding at least to the area of the transverse section of the flue and preferably greater than the latter by 50%. - In one embodiment shown in Fig. 1, the
conveying channels 5, for example defined by lengths of rectilinear pipes having a circular section, are disposed in mutual side by side relation to form a bundle and converge close to the upper portion 3b of thehood 3, so that they substantially occupy, at least close to the upper openings thereof 5b, the whole transverse section of thehood 3, apart from the gaps present between the pipes as a result of their circular section. - In this embodiment preferably one main conveying channel or
pipe 5c is provided which is disposed centrally substantially above the flame present in thehearth 2, as well as a plurality of auxiliary conveying channels orpipes 5d disposed perimetrically and each of them having a transverse section the area of which is lower than that of the trasverse section of themain pipe 5c. - Still in accordance with the present invention, provision may be also made for at least one lower plate-like closing element 6a extending close to the lower inlet mouth 3a of the
hood 3, provided with through holes sealingly engaging the respective lower end portions of theconveying channels 5. - If one intends to recover at least part of the fume heat in order to generate hot air, in addition to the lower plate-like closing element 6a an upper plate-like closing element 6b is also provided which is disposed close to the upper portion 3b of the
hood 3. The upper plate-like element 6b is also provided with through holes adapted to sealingly engage the upper end portions of theconveying channels 5. In this manner the lower and upper plate-like closing elements, 6a and 6b, substantially define, in cooperation with thehood 3, a heat-exchange sealed chamber with respect to the fumes, crossed by theconveying channels 5 themselves.Suitable air intakes 7 formed in thehood 3 for admitting cold air from the surrounding atmosphere and emitting hot air thereinto (only one admission intake being shown in Fig. 1) enable a forced air circulation to be created, optionally with the aid of ventilation means, which air passing through the gaps present between theconveying channels 5 can be heated by the heat transmitted from the fumes. - In a preferred embodiment shown in Figs. 2 and 3, the
conveying channels 5 are disposed in mutual side by side relation and in alignment with each other and they occupy the hood volume, and therefore the transverse hood section, only partially. Theconveying channels 5 in this embodiment exhibit theirlower openings 5a disposed in alignment along the front side of the lower inlet mouth 3a of thehood 3, or anyhow consecutively aligned substantially parallely to said front side, so as to define a suction area extending along the whole extension of said side. - Preferentially the
conveying channels 5 are integral with each other and consist of a unitary body 8, being divided bypartitions 8a. Such unitary body 8 can be easily engaged within an already installed hood in order to improve performance of same in drawing fumes. Theupper openings 5b of theconveying channels 5 defined by thepartitions 8a open into an interconnectingpipeline 9 at differentiated heights in order not to hinder the respective smoke flows. Preferentially, as shown in Fig. 4, theupper ends 5b of theconveying channels 5 located at the laterally opposite ends of the unitary body 8 communicate with the upper portion of the interconnectingpipeline 9 by twotubular headers 20 exhibiting end portions 20a adapted to be laterally fitted in the interconnecting pipeline as they bend according to the progress direction of the fumes along said pipeline. - Advantageously, connected in succession to the interconnecting
pipeline 9 is adraught duct 10 having an extension enabling one upper end thereof 10a to be directly located in theflue 4 In this manner, close to theupper end 10a there is a negative pressure created by the quick flowing of the fumes from thehood 3, which negative pressure greatly increases the suction effect of theconveying channels 5. - Operation of a fume-exhausting apparatus, in particular for chimneys and fireplaces, described above mainly as regards structure, is as follows.
- The
conveying channels 5 enable the whole fume flow to be divided into partial flows, each of which exhibits a reduced vorticity and greater upward kinetic energy. Practically, the apparatus in question enables the so-called draught effect created within the flue to be moved much closer to the flame or, in other words, to the real fume-producing area, thereby enabling said fumes to be drawn upwardly in a stronger manner. In the traditional prior art solutions the results of said draught effect have been practically zero at distances ranging between 20 and 30 cm from the lower end of the flue itself. - In particular, in the preferred embodiment shown in Figs. 2 and 3 a suction area extending along the front edge of the hearth is created so as to form a barrier against the emission of fumes towards the room where the fireplace is located.
- It is pointed out that the last-mentioned embodiment of the apparatus makes it possible to intervene on already installed fireplaces with ease, because the apparatus can be readily fitted into a hood and engaged to the front wall thereof. Therefore the apparatus of the invention is capable of making a fireplace flue work properly even if it has an inefficient draught as a result of an imperfect design and/or construction, or at all events is capable of improving performace of a fireplace even under the most unfavourable circumstances.
