CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A BURNER WITH A DISTAL FLAME HOLDER
A combustion system includes a distal flame holder, a pilot fuel distributor, a main fuel distributor, an oxidant source, an array of sensors, and a controller. The oxidant source outputs an oxidant. The pilot fuel distributor supports a pilot flame configured to preheat the distal flame holder by outputting a pilot fuel at least when the combustion system is in a preheating state. The main fuel source outputs a main fuel in the standard operating state. The distal flame holder is configured to support a combustion reaction of the main fuel and the oxidant in the standard operating state. The sensors are configured to sense parameters of the pilot flame and the distal flame holder and to output sensor signals to the controller. The controller executes software instructions that include adjusting the flow of the main fuel, the pilot fuel, and the oxidant responsive to the sensor signals.
Gas shut-off valve for a gas cooking appliance and gas cooking appliance incorporating said gas shut-off valve
According to one embodiment a gas shut-off valve is provided with an intermediate port communicating a gas inlet an a gas outlet, a closing member moveable between a closed position and an open position, the intermediate port being blocked when the closing member is in the closed position. The shut-off valve includes a magnetic actuator having at least one permanent magnet and a movable element, attached to the closing member, with a ferromagnetic element adhered to the permanent magnet when the closing member is in an open position. A manual actuator of the shut-off valve is configured to move the closing member to the open position. A temperature sensing device is included that has a rod that expands and shrinks with temperature changes, with one end of the rod facing the movable element. The expansion of the rod at a closing temperature causing a pushing on the ferromagnetic element, moving the closing member from the open position to the closed position.
Flame arrestor
A flame arrestor including a flame arrestor collar and a flame arrestor plug. The flame arrestor collar includes a flame path that may be defined by one or more modules. The flame arrestor plug may be configured for connection to the flame arrestor collar. Various embodiments of a flame arrestor, including those having venting and/or draining elements or capabilities are also disclosed.
GAS SHUT-OFF VALVE FOR A GAS COOKING APPLIANCE AND GAS COOKING APPLIANCE INCORPORATING SAID GAS SHUT-OFF VALVE
According to one embodiment a gas shut-off valve is provided with an intermediate port communicating a gas inlet an a gas outlet, a closing member moveable between a closed position and an open position, the intermediate port being blocked when the closing member is in the closed position. The shut-off valve includes a magnetic actuator having at least one permanent magnet and a movable element, attached to the closing member, with a ferromagnetic element adhered to the permanent magnet when the closing member is in an open position. A manual actuator of the shut-off valve is configured to move the closing member to the open position. A temperature sensing device is included that has a rod that expands and shrinks with temperature changes, with one end of the rod facing the movable element. The expansion of the rod at a closing temperature causing a pushing on the ferromagnetic element, moving the closing member from the open position to the closed position.
HEAT SOURCE DEVICE
A heat source device including a sheet-metal burner body (30), a fan casing (40) connected to the burner body (30), an annular packing (90) connecting a burner-side connection end surface (340) with a fan-side connection end surface (410) in an airtight state, a sheet-metal connection part (80) disposed between the burner-side connection end surface (340) and the fan-side connection end surface (410), wherein the connection part has an opening (85) and a packing storage portion (84) storing the annular packing (90), wherein the opening (85) is provided in such a manner that an opening edge is positioned outside of those of an inlet port (35) and a blowout port (44) in a state where the connection part (80) is disposed between the burner-side connection end surface (340) and the fan-side connection end surface (410).
GAS HEATER, METHOD FOR OPERATING THE GAS HEATER AND A GAS BOILER
A gas heater includes a premix burner, a supply channel for supplying a mixture of a gaseous fuel and air to the burner, and a check valve placed in the supply channel upstream of the burner. The check valve includes a moveable valve body having a first end position in which the check valve is opened and a second end position in which the check valve is closed. In a first pressure condition in which a pressure upstream is higher than a pressure downstream, the valve body is urged to the first end position. In a second pressure condition in which the pressure upstream is lower than the pressure downstream the valve body is urged to the second end position. After closure of the check valve the check valve remains closed for a delay time.
CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A BURNER WITH A DISTAL FLAME HOLDER
A combustion system includes a distal flame holder, a pilot fuel distributor, a main fuel distributor, an oxidant source, an array of sensors, and a controller. The oxidant source outputs an oxidant. The pilot fuel distributor supports a pilot flame configured to preheat the distal flame holder by outputting a pilot fuel at least when the combustion system is in a preheating state. The main fuel source outputs a main fuel in the standard operating state. The distal flame holder is configured to support a combustion reaction of the main fuel and the oxidant in the standard operating state. The sensors are configured to sense parameters of the pilot flame and the distal flame holder and to output sensor signals to the controller. The controller executes software instructions that include adjusting the flow of the main fuel, the pilot fuel, and the oxidant responsive to the sensor signals.
