A premixing apparatus in which a downstream end of a gas supply passage having interposed therein a flow control valve is connected to a gas suction section disposed in an air supply passage on an upstream side of a fan. The premixing apparatus has: a butterfly valve as an air resistance changeover device for changing over, between high and low, a ventilation resistance in that section of the air supply passage which is on the upstream side of the gas suction section; and a gas resistance changeover device for changing over, between high and low, a ventilation resistance in that section of the gas supply passage which is on the downstream side of the flow control valve. Wind noises at the time of closing the butterfly valve can be prevented. For that purpose, in that section of the air supply passage which is on the upstream side of the gas suction section, an inner tube containing therein the butterfly valve is disposed while leaving a clearance to an inner circumferential wall surface of the air supply passage. A subsidiary passage which is parallel with a main passage inside the inner tube is constituted by the clearance between the inner circumferential wall surface of the air supply passage and an outer peripheral surface of the inner tube.

Apparatus for Regulating the Size and Intensity of Torch Flame
20190093887 · 2019-03-28 ·

An apparatus that regulates the size and intensity of a torch flame by controlling the release of oxygen and a fuel, such as propane. The apparatus releases oxygen and fuel by pivoting a flame control plate that opens and closes mini ball valves using a mini ball connecting bracket. The further forward the plate is pivoted, the more open the valves become increasing the size and intensity of the torch flame. Slotted holes at different angles on the mini ball valve connecting bracket cause the apparatus to release oxygen first resulting in a quiet flame ignition and to release oxygen last to blow out the last flow of fuel, resulting in a safe operation.

Positive Pressure Amplified Gas-Air Valve For A Low NOx Premix Combustion System
20190063742 · 2019-02-28 · ·

Systems and methods are described related to a premix combustion system used in a furnace system. Prior systems have to create a negative pressure in the premix chamber to draw gas into the chamber. Embodiments under the current disclosure can use an amplifier that is pneumatically coupled to an air supply and a secondary location (besides the gas valve). Coupling to the amplifier to a location apart from the gas valve allows the system to avoid a negative pressure in the mixing chamber. The amplifier can apply an amplified pressure or signal to a gas valve regulator and thereby raise the gas pressure so that the gas supply is driven into the premix chamber.
