Abstract

The present invention relates to an oven intended to heat portions of wood so as give them oenological properties, the oven comprising at least one heating hearth (301, 302) in which combustion takes place, and a heating chamber (2) in which the pieces of wood to be heated are placed. According to the invention, the heating hearth (301, 302) comprises a combustion chamber in which a solid fuel is placed and in which an oxidizing gas circulates, passing through a first end or inlet end of this combustion chamber, the gases released by the combustion that takes place in this combustion chamber being introduced into a substantially vertical combustion chimney (33), the combustion of the gases released as a result of the combustion of the solid fuel continuing in the combustion chimney (33).

IPC Classes  ?

• F26B 3/04 - Drying solid materials or objects by processes involving the application of heat by convection, i.e. heat being conveyed from a heat source to the materials or objects to be dried by a gas or vapour, e.g. air the gas or vapour circulating over, or surrounding, the materials or objects to be dried
• F26B 17/34 - Machines or apparatus for drying materials in loose, plastic, or fluidised form, e.g. granules, staple fibres, with progressive movement with movement performed by rotary or oscillating containersMachines or apparatus for drying materials in loose, plastic, or fluidised form, e.g. granules, staple fibres, with progressive movement with movement performed by rotary floors the movement being in a vertical or steeply-inclined plane
• F26B 13/16 - Rollers perforated
• F26B 17/28 - Machines or apparatus for drying materials in loose, plastic, or fluidised form, e.g. granules, staple fibres, with progressive movement with movement performed by rollers or discs with material passing over or between them, e.g. suction drum, sieve
• B27H 3/00 - Manufacture of constructional elements of tubs, coops or barrels
• F26B 25/16 - Chambers, containers, receptacles of simple construction mainly closed, e.g. drum
• B27M 1/06 - Working of wood not provided for in subclasses , e.g. by stretching by burning or charring, e.g. cutting with hot wire
• F23B 40/06 - Combustion apparatus with driven means for feeding fuel into the combustion chamber the fuel being fed along the fuel-supporting surface
• F23B 50/12 - Combustion apparatus in which the fuel is fed into or through the combustion zone by gravity, e.g. from a fuel storage situated above the combustion zone the fuel being fed to the combustion zone by free fall or by sliding along inclined surfaces, e.g. from a conveyor terminating above the fuel bed
• F23B 60/02 - Combustion apparatus in which the fuel burns essentially without moving with combustion air supplied through a grate
