The present disclosure relates to a switching assembly for an ignition circuit of a gas cooker, a switching mechanism including the switching assembly, and a gas cooker including the switching mechanism. The gas cooker includes a gas valve structure configured for the passing through and cutting off of a gas, the gas valve structure includes a plunger and a valve housing, and the switching assembly includes: a permanent magnet carrier configured to be connected to the plunger to move between an initial position and a working position with the plunger; a permanent magnet fixed onto the permanent magnet carrier; a reed switch connected to the ignition circuit via a cable; a sealing structure configured to be provided at a connection segment between the reed switch and the cable so as to protect the connection segment from an environment where the switching assembly is located. When the permanent magnet carrier is in the initial position, a distance between the permanent magnet and the reed switch allows the reed switch to be free from the effect of the permanent magnet; and when the permanent magnet carrier is in the working position, the permanent magnet is close to the reed switch so as to exert a magnetic effect on the reed switch.

A wave guide assembly for a control and diagnostic system for a machine includes a housing defining an exterior surface and an internal cavity extending between distal ends. At least one wave guide within the internal cavity defines a wave propagation passage for at least one wave form signal. At least one conductor within the internal cavity is separate from the wave guide. A control and diagnostic system for a machine and a gas turbine engine are also disclosed.

A mounting system for mounting a pressure switch to a mounting body without using screws or brackets. The mounting system includes a support physically supporting the pressure switch on the mounting body, a conduit carrying a pressure signal from the mounting body to the pressure switch, and a connector extending between and connecting the support to the conduit. The support and conduit may have ends constructed of synthetic rubber to frictionally engage support and conduit mounts, and the support and conduit may have approximately the same length and/or the same cross-sectional shape. The mounting body may be a draft inducer, a condensate collector box, or a drain trap in a furnace.

A sampler including an ejector and a sample channel extending to the ejector, which are placeable in a mixture of particles of a solid and a medium, the medium being a gas and/or a liquid. The ejector includes at least one inlet and an outlet. The ejector takes a mixture sample by using vacuum via the inlet and discharges it via the outlet so as to make the mixture sample flow from the inlet towards the outlet. The sample channel takes a desired measuring sample from the mixture sample flowing in the ejector, the solid particles and the medium being at least partly separable from one another in the ejector on the basis of the flow and inertia in the mixture sample.

A high temperature carbon monoxide sensor for in-situ combustion monitoring is provided having a yttrium-stabilized zirconia interface based emf-measuring electrochemical sensor and a nickel oxide (NiO) first sensing electrode for targeting carbon monoxide gas at a temperature range from between about 1000 degrees Centigrade to about 1200 degrees Centigrade. A method of measuring carbon monoxide using this sensor is provided.
