DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 2 of the drawing, an energy saving stove water heater according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, which comprises a water tank communicatively equipped with a cooking stove. The energy saving stove water heater is constructed by an inner tank body 1, an outer tank body 2, a top panel 3, and a bottom panel 4. The inner tank body 1 and the outer tank body 2 define a ring-shape sealed water chamber 5 therebetween. The top panel 3 and the bottom panel 4 are connected on to a top side and a bottom side of the water chamber 5 respectively so as to sealedly enclose the water chamber 5 to form the water tank. The inner and outer tank bodies 1, 2 are provided with a channel 6 extending through the water chamber 5 for disposing the fuel line. The outer tank body 2 further has a water inlet 7 and a water outlet 8.

In order to prevent the incoming cool water from the water inlet 7 from immediately exiting at the water outlet 8, an isolated wall 9 is built between the water inlet 7 and the water outlet 8 in the water chamber 5 for separating incoming cool water and the exiting heated water within the water chamber 5.

For security and safety purpose, a safety valve 10 is installed to the outer tank body 2. The safety valve is communicated with the water chamber 5 for releasing the internal pressure and steam within the water chamber 5 while the water being heated up therein.

The energy saving stove water heater further comprises an electric heater 11 installed near the water outlet 8 within the water chamber 5 for generating electrical heat to heat up the water in the water chamber 5, wherein when the temperature of water is detected lower than the usage requirement, the electric heater 11 is switched to heat up the water to be exited through the water outlet 8 so as to ensure the temperature of the water supply from the stove water heater of the present invention.

As a reasonable design, the inner and outer tank bodies 1, 2 are provided with a ventilation channel 12 extending through the water chamber 5, wherein the ventilation channel 12 can be extended to the bottom panel 4 in a vertical direction to form a groove to make a detour with the exhaust line of the stove.

In view of above, a stove can be installed inside the cavity surrounded by the inner tank body 1 while the fuel pipe of the stove extends through the channel 6 and the exhaust line passes through the ventilation channel 12, not shown in Figures. In other words, the boundary bricks of the traditional stove are replaced by the stove water heater of the present invention as shown in FIGS. 1 to 8 to use the excessive heat generated from the stove to heat up the water flown in the water chamber 5 of the stove water heater of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3 of the drawing, a second preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, wherein the difference between the second preferred embodiment and the above preferred embodiment is that the cross section of the outer tank body 2 is in circular shape instead of the rectangular shape as shown in FIGS. 1 to 2.

Referring to FIG. 4 of the drawing, a third preferred embodiment of the present invention is illustrated, wherein the difference between the third preferred embodiment and the above preferred embodiment is that the cross section of the inner tank body 2 in the third preferred embodiment is in hexagonal shape.

According to the fourth embodiment as shown in FIG. 5, the energy saving stove water heater of the present invention can be constructed by a left half body 13 and a right half body 14. The left half body 13 and the right half body 14 has a communicating tube 15 to connect with each other, wherein each of the left and right half body 13, 14 is provided with the water inlet 7 and the water outlet 8 respectively.

It is worth to mentioning that a cross section of the inner tank body 1 of the energy saving stove water heating is in circular shape.

In view of above, the energy saving stove water heater of the present invention is capable of heating up water flowing through the water chamber by fully utilizing the excessive heat from the cooking stove such that there is no need to consume any other energy to have hot water. Therefore, the energy saving stove water heater of the present invention is an energy saving device. In addition, the present invention is an individual and compact structure that is easier for assemble and usage.

One skilled in the art will understand that the embodiment of the present invention as shown in the drawings and described above is exemplary only and not intended to be limiting.

It will thus be seen that the objects of the present invention have been fully and effectively accomplished. The embodiments have been shown and described for the purposes of illustrating the functional and structural principles of the present invention and is subject to change without departure from such principles. Therefore, this invention includes all modifications encompassed within the spirit and scope of the following claims.
