Abstract:
A heat dispersing element for a standard propane torch head for the generation of silent heat. This heat dispersing element attaches directly to the head of a propane torch and operates silently. The heat dispersing element accepts the heat of the torch and silently disperses the heat through the burn plate and directs it outward silently. This is done through a series of openings.

     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     The applicant is unaware of any prior art concerning the present device. The heat dispersing element attaches to a standard propane torch head to produce noiseless heat generation. There are many portable propane heaters available as heaters. However, there are not any heat dispersing elements that are attachable to a standard propane torch head that provide noiseless heat. 
     THE INVENTION 
     This heat dispersing element attaches directly to the head of a propane torch and operates silently. The heat dispersing element accepts the heat of the torch and silently disperses the heat through the burn plate and directs it outward silently. This is done through a series of openings. 
     Thus, the present invention is a metal heat dispersing element that attaches to a propane fuel tank and prevents noise or light while the fuel tank is operating. The metal heat dispersing unit is comprised of a main housing comprising a flat top, a flat bottom, a front, a back and two side panels, wherein the back is shorter in length than the front. The front has an inside flat surface. The front has a multiplicity of small through holes therein. 
     The back has a first single through hole therein centered in the back. The single through hole has fixedly surmounted thereover a segment of metal stock that has a second single through hole. The first single through hole and the second single through hole are aligned with each other. The second through hole is internally threaded. 
     The segment of metal stock that has an internally threaded second opening in a side is to accommodate a set screw. 
     There is a single metal plate that has a series of small through holes therein wherein the through holes are less in number than the number of through holes in the front. 
     The single plate has two ends. The single plate is bent in the center thereof between the two ends such that the center is out of line with the two ends. 
     The single plate is fixedly attached by the ends to the inside surface of the front such that the out of line portion extends towards the back of the main housing.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
       FIG. 1  shows the heat dispersing element  2  secured to a propane torch  40 . The metal front  10  has multiple small holes or openings  20  therethrough. 
     The heat dispersing element  2  also shows an element guard  42 . The heat dispersing element  2  heats to temperatures that require it be safe from contact. The element guard  42  prevents the user from inadvertent contact and keeps them safe from the hot surface of the heat dispersing element  2 . The heat dispersing element  2  is attached to a standard propane torch head  40 . The torch  40  incorporates a standard tank  50  that contains the propane fuel. The tank  50  is secured within a base  44 . Here the base is square and prevents the torch  40  from tipping over during operation. It should be understood that any base configuration that prevents the torch  40  from being knocked over is suitable. 
       FIG. 2  shows the metal front  10  of the heat dispersing element  2  with a number of small holes  20 . In this embodiment the main housing  4  is made from 1¼ square tubing with a 16 gauge thickness. The front measures 4½ inches in length, center line of the front from one end to the other has nine 5/32 inch holes  20  drilled starting in the center and working out in both directions spaces 5/16 inch apart although these dimensions are not critical and the invention is not so limited. 
     The 2 nd  and 3 rd  row holes  20  are spaced perpendicular with center row holes  20  but are spaced, for example, 5/16 inch to each side of the center and the holes  20  are drilled in an offset pattern from the canter line holes  20  with the 2 nd  and 3 rd  rows containing only 6 holes per line. 
       FIG. 3  shows the heat dispersing element  2  from the first end  14 . The housing  4  has top  6 , a flat bottom  8  and a front  10 . The housing  4  also has a back  12 , a first side  14  and a second side  16  (shown in  FIG. 4 ). There are a plurality of openings  20  therethrough, or small holes, through the front  10 . There is an opening  22  therethrough of the back  12 . There is another opening  24  therethrough that has a set screw  30  in it. This second opening  80  therethrough accepts the torch head of the propane torch  40  and locks into place with the set screw  30 . This is the manner in which the heat dispersing element attaches  2  to the propane torch  40 . 
       FIG. 4  shows the heat dispersing element  2  from the top  6 . The first side  14  and the second side  16  are cut from the housing  4  in a 45° angle from the front  6  to the back  12 . The first side  14  and the second side  16  helps to radiate the heat that is generated from the heat dispersing element  2 . Both the first side  14  and the second side  16  help reduce the noise produced by burning the propane fuel because their presence blocks noise that would otherwise escape if they were left open. The front  10  has a series of openings  20  therethrough that radiate heat in a silent manner. Here the inside flat surface  18  is shown with the single plate or burn plate  32  with openings  60  therethrough in phantom. 
     The opening  22  through the center of the back  12  that is threaded  26  attaches to the main housing  4 . This embodiment is threaded, however, it should be understood that this attachment in other embodiments can be welded. The other opening  24  has a set screw  30  to tighten the heat dispersing element  2  to the propane torch  40 . 
       FIG. 5  shows the burn plate  32  from the side. The burn plate  32  has a front  72  and a back  70 . There is also a center point  34  or apex of the burn plate  32 . The burn plate  32  attaches to the inside surface  18  of the front  10  of the heat dispersing element  2 . The back  70  of the burn plate  32  faces the back  12  of the heat dispersing element  2 . The apex or center point  34  of the burn plate  32  points toward the back  12  of the heat dispersing element  2 . The apex  34  and pattern openings or openings  60  therethrough of the burn plate  32  and the front  10  of the heat dispersing element work in concert to silence any noise produced when propane fuel burns through the heat dispersing element  2 . 
       FIG. 6  shows the burn plate  32  from the front  72 . The burn plate  32  has a first end  36  and a second end  38 . Also shown are the openings  60 .
