Abstract

A burner for a small portable stove, especially for a flambe or flaming stove, comprises a burner lower portion equipped with a fuel container, a burner upper portion having a central flame opening and an extinguishing cover for the flame opening. The burner upper portion which is constructed as a cover can be controllably raised with respect to the burner lower portion in order to form an air inlet gap which extends completely about the burner. Between the burner lower portion and the burner upper portion there are provided at least three run-on inclined elements or ramps, so that by movement, such as displacement or rotation of the upper portion with respect to the lower portion, it is possible to alter the height of the air inlet gap.
