SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and has as its object to provide a hearth that can be easily installed and used.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is to remove the conventional hearth tradition from the traditional hearth tradition and cut out the floor from the conventional fixed type to the portable type which can be used in a desired case. The present invention has arrived at the present invention by changing the idea to a configuration that can be replaced with (mobile type).

That is, the invention according to claim 1 of the present invention is a portable hearth hearth used in a desired place in a room, which has a bottom plate on the lower end side of a square tubular body, and has a bottom plate. A wooden hearth heart main body formed in a square box shape with an opening formed therein, and a side wall portion and a bottom wall portion are formed in a substantially rectangular box shape, and the cylinder is formed along an upper end of the side wall portion. A metal ash container which is formed in the hearth body by forming an engagement flange portion for engaging with an upper end surface of the tubular body portion, and engaging the flange portion with an upper end surface of the tubular body portion; A rectangular frame formed by providing a square cutout hole corresponding to the upper end of the opening of the cylindrical body at the center of the shaped plate, and a wooden frame top plate installed at the upper end of the hearth body. An engaging portion is formed on the lower surface of the top plate to engage with the upper surface of the flange along the peripheral edge of the hole. Both sides of the engaging portion are formed with a quadrangular fitting tubular portion which is slidably fitted on the outer surface of the upper end portion of the tubular body to be fitted, and the top plate defines the engaging portion. Along with engaging with the flange portion, the tubular portion is fitted to the tubular body portion and is detachably installed at an upper end portion of the hearth main body,
A handle serving also as a support member for supporting the top plate in contact with a lower end of the cylindrical portion is attached to an outer surface of the body portion.

With this configuration, the ash container is filled with ash and the hearth is placed on the floor or tatami mat of a desired room in the house, so that the room can be provided as a space between the hearths. As described above, according to the present invention, the hearth can be expressed simply by placing and installing the floor without cutting out the floor as in the related art.
