A system including a burner configured to be coupled to a fuel line to deliver fuel to the burner and an igniter positioned adjacent to the burner and configured to ignite fuel emitted by the burner. The system further includes a valve configured to control a flow of fuel through the fuel line and a control module operably coupled to the igniter and to the valve. The control module is configured to send a signal to the igniter and to close the valve if a quality of a return electrical signal from the igniter is below a predetermined value.

A burner for use with an igniter for firing a flame into a heat-exchanger includes a body having a sidewall that defines an interior chamber. A first opening in the body receives a pre-mixed mixture of air and fuel. A second opening in the body is in fluid communication with the first opening. A distributor connected to the body closes the second opening. The distributor includes a first portion and at least one curved second, portion provided on the first portion. Each second portion includes a plurality of first perforations in fluid communication with the first opening in the body. The first perforations of one second portion are positioned adjacent to the igniter such that ignition of the pre-mix mixture flowing through the first perforations results in a flame through the second portion.

A torch assembly for igniting a target fuel includes a torch including an elongate wand having a handle end and an opposing forward end, and a torch head located on the forward end of the wand. The torch head has a central axis. The torch head includes an outer surface, a fuel supply chamber, and a plurality of circumferentially spaced apart jet channels fluidly connecting the fuel supply chamber to the outer surface. Each jet channel is configured such that, when a pressurized flow of a gaseous torch fuel is supplied to the jet channels through the fuel supply chamber and ignited, each jet channel directs a respective flame jet forwardly and radially outwardly from the outer surface at an acute angle to the central axis.

An outdoor decorative burner having a direct gas feed and a linear burner having a plurality of longitudinally-oriented slit-like flame orifices. The linear burner is securely attached to a plate by at least two wrap brackets. A direct spark igniter and a flame sensor are included and surrounded by protective cages.

A cooking device is provided. The cooking device includes a frame that forms a cooking chamber; a burner provided inside the frame and having a plurality of gas outlet holes; an ignition unit provided inside the frame to ignite a mixed gas discharged from at least one of the plurality of gas outlet holes; and a fixing device to affix a position of the ignition unit with respect to the burner.

Provided is an auto-ignition unit for a candle including a wick containing a conductive material, wherein the wick is ignited by a discharge (electric discharge). Further, provided is a candle containing the auto-ignition unit for a candle to thereby be automatically ignited by an electric signal.

The invention relates to a combustion chamber for a turbomachine. The combustion chamber comprises at least one spark plug, at least one fuel injector of a first type of injector that is located facing the spark plug, and at least one fuel injector of a second type. Each fuel injector comprises a mobile sealing member that is configured to open when the fuel pressure exceeds an opening threshold. The opening threshold of the mobile sealing member of the injector of the first type is strictly less than the opening threshold of the mobile sealing member of the injector of the second type.

The disclosed technology includes a combustion system providing ease of access to components of the combustion system and optimal placement of a burner such that efficient combustion and heat transfer can occur. The combustion system can include an inner tube having a first end and a second end, the second end having a flange with a sensor port, and an outer tube having a first end and a second end. The inner tube can be disposed within the outer tube. The inner tube can have an outer diameter less than an inner diameter of the outer tube, creating a gap between the outer tube and inner tube. An ignitor assembly and a flame sensor assembly can extend through the sensor port and the gap and be positioned proximate a burner.

Herein disclosed is universal housing for a hot surface igniter that can be removed and/or easily installed by the consumer without the need for numerous tools or assistance from experienced maintenance personnel. The igniter housing is universal and is functional for use with substantially any apparatus or device which requires a hot surface igniter. The universal housing is of simple construction formed from only two components. Various embodiments are disclosed for construction of the two components and also various attachment means are described.

A poolside burner having a central gas feed and a burner ring having longitudinally-oriented slit-like flame orifices. The burner ring is securely attached to a burner plate having a centralized hole through which a feeder extends and mates with a central distribution tube connected to the burner ring.
