<p>A wood-fired furnace installation having automatic charging of the fire chamber, characterised in that a container for the reception of wood has at the bottom, in a sidewall, an aperture which is reinforced at its edge and which opens into a feed duct leading to a fire chamber and as far as which or into which a ram, which is reciprocated in the container by means of a drive device and the cross section of which at the end facing the aperture is the same as or smaller than the aperture, extends at the end of the working stroke, and in that region of the container bottom which adjoins the side-wall having the aperture extends at least approximately horizontally or in inlined on both sides of the ram path downwardly away from the ram and the dimension of this region transversely to the ram amounts to a multiple of the diameter of the ram end.</p> |
