Filed:
Nov 18, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/978431

International Classification:

Abstract:
A portable heater for airplanes, other vehicles and equipment is disclosed. The device has a cylindrical housing that has three legs attached. The legs can be folded against the housing for storage, or extended downward for use. Heat is provided by a small camp type stove that is placed within the housing. The heat is channeled from the housing to the vehicle using a flexible duct that extends from the top of the housing. The duct and stove are designed to fit inside the housing for storage. This allows the device to be stored in small planes and cars without taking up much space. The device uses lightweight materials to produce a heater with a high BTU output per pound.
