<p>The invention concerns a self-stoking stove fuelled by wood pellets or similar types of solid fuel in pelleted or granulated form. The innovative feature of the invention consists in the inclusion in the smokebox of the stove of a system of guide plates that guides the flue gases in such a way that the smoke is made to pass through a convection mantle disposed on the front and sides of the stove, in order to give off the maximum quantity of heat to the surroundings before being conducted away through the chimney. The guide plates are displaceable between two extreme positions, where one extreme position corresponds to the normal operating position with the smoke being directed through the convection mantle, and the other extreme position is a 'bypass' position, in which the smoke flows directly from the combustion chamber to the chimney by-passing the convection mantle.</p> |
