Abstract
The present invention relates to an electric fireplace having a 3D flame simulating assembly, which comprises housing, an imaging light source, a light processing unit and a simulated charcoal disposed in front of the inner cavity of said housing. A translucent imaging screen is positioned against the back of the simulated charcoal and a second translucent imaging screen is positioned just in front of and parallel to the translucent imaging screen. The light emitted from the imaging light source is projected onto the imaging screen to form a primary simulated flame image after passing through the light processing unit, and portion of which is further projected onto the second imaging screen to form a secondary simulated flame image after passing through the image screen. If the distance between the imaging screen and the second imaging screen is kept to be enough, a visual effect of rising and leaping simulated flames with spatial depth is generated due to the different front to back positions of the flame images imaged on both screens.
