A fuel feed system for conveying particulate fuel from a hopper to a firebox in a stove is provided. The fuel feed system includes an inlet opening to receive particulate fuel and a fuel collection plate located below the inlet opening. A fuel passageway is located below the plate. The passageway includes a fuel delivery end located in a firebox and a fuel infeed end below the plate. A fuel delivery system moves fuel through the passageway from the infeed end to the delivery end. A motor actuates the fuel delivery system.

Feed system for solid particulate fuel burning stove

A solid fuel burning stove includes a firebox having front side and rear walls, a top and a bottom, and a secondary combustion unit formed from high temperature insulative refractive material mounted on the top and rear wall of the firebox. The unit is connected to the firebox by a mouth located in the rear wall adjacent the floor of the firebox and by a perforated plate on the firebox top wall. A vertical combustion passage extends from the mouth up to a mixing and combustion chamber located in the unit above the top wall of the firebox. The secondary combustion unit efficiently burns secondary combustion gases flowing into the unit through the mouth and plate during different stages of burning solid fuel, particularly wood.

Wood and coal burning stove

An improved fuel feed system for a solid particulate fueled stove includes a hopper which supplies fuel to an elevated fuel plate. A pusher block forces fuel pellets from the fuel plate through a drop area and into a trough. The drop area is of sufficient distance to prevent burnback.

Feed system for pellet burning stove

An improved coal stove grate including a floor and side walls to either side of the floor. Coal is pushed along the floor, up a rise surface, past a crest at the end of the rise surface and along a fire support section to the end of the grate. Part of the coal forced up the rise surface rolls back to fill a reservoir space in the grate and fuel a fire extending the full length of the grate during heating and a stable long-burning fire during turndown of the stove.
