Abstract
1443772 Lamps; imitation solid-fuel fires T I SUNHOUSE Ltd 13 March 1974 [10 Jan 1973] 1328/73 Headings F4R and F4W Means for simulating a flame or firelight effect, e.g. in an electric fire, comprises at least one inner lamp 1 supplied with an automatically interrupted or varying current and at least one outer lamp 2 supplied with steady current. The lamps are surmounted by rotary flicker devices 6, 7 provided with irregularly shaped and/or spaced apertures 8 and regularly shaped and spaced apertures, respectively. The light is directed between a rear reflector 3 and a front viewing screen 4 of known form. The current for the lamp 1 is controlled by a device 9 comprising a triac 11 controlled by a triac firing circuit 12 driven by a random signal generator 13.
