Apparatus for simulating flames, comprising a source of light (17), a reflector (18), a screen (15), and flame effect means located between the reflector (18) and the screen (15). The flame effect means preferably comprises a sheet of flexible fabric (21), provided with a plurality of slits (28), such that air from a fan (25) causes the sheet (21) to billow, alternately opening and closing the slits (28). Light transmitted from the source towards the flame effect means passes through the openings and falls onto the screen (15) as an area of high intensity light, which as the sheet (21) billows, appears to move upwardly, simulating the appearance of a flickering flame.

Dispositif permettant de simuler des flammes et comportant une source lumineuse (17), un réflecteur (18), un écran (15), et un élément simulant une flamme situé entre le réflecteur (18) et l'écran (15). Cet élément simulant une flamme comporte de préférence une feuille de tissu souple (21) présentant une série de fentes (28), de manière que l'air provenant d'un ventilateur (25) fasse onduler la feuille (21) et provoque l'ouverture et la fermeture alternée des fentes (28). Le rayonnement émis à partir de la source en direction de l'élément simulant une flamme passe à travers les ouvertures et tombe sur l'écran (15) sous forme d'une zone à forte intensité lumineuse qui, pendant que la feuille (21) ondule, semble se déplacer vers le haut et simule ainsi l'apparence d'une flamme oscillante.
