A safety device for a pot-type oil burner is disclosed which is capable of efficiently and rapidly detecting the decrease of oxygen concentration in a room due to combustion to provide a warning and/or stop the combustion by sensing the decrease in temperature of a bottom portion of a pot. The safety device includes a thermo-sensitive device arranged on the outer surface of the bottom portion of the pot which is apart from the bottom region of the pot in which occurs the vaporization of fuel oil supplied to the pot.

Safety device for pot-type oil burner

A protective guard for a combustion appliance is disclosed which comprises a front frame having a pair of vertical frame portions between which a protective guard body is provided; a pair of side frames which at one end are rotatably supported on the vertical frame portions of said front frame on both ends thereof; and a cross beam member on both ends thereof slidably engaging the side frames. When the cross beam member is positioned at the upper ends of the side frames, the side frames are so rotatable about the axes of the upper ends of the vertical frame portions of the front frame that the side frames are able to be inwardly folded, and when the cross beam member is positioned at the lower ends of the side frames, the side frames are so fixed in an unfolded manner that they cannot be rotated. Thus, it will be noted that the protective guard can be fixed so that it can surround a combustion appliance in a stable manner.
