A gas burner includes a burner body that defines a plurality of forced induction flame ports. An air outlet orifice is mounted to an injet body at an outlet of an air passage such that the air outlet orifice is oriented for directing a flow of air towards the plurality of forced induction flame ports. A gas outlet orifice is mounted to the injet body at an outlet of a gas passage such that the gas outlet orifice is oriented for directing a flow of gaseous fuel towards the plurality of forced induction flame ports. A pneumatically actuated gas valve is positioned within the injet body. The pneumatically actuated gas valve is configured to adjust from a closed configuration to an open configuration in response to the flow of air through the air passage.

Horizontal immersion tube boilers include a plurality of burner nozzles positioned in substantial alignment with a respective plurality of boiler tubes. Fuel-air mixture directed through the burner nozzles are ignited by a pilot flame system positioned proximate to the burner nozzles within a combustion chamber. The burner nozzles and pilot flame system receive air from a secondary air manifold having inlets that provide secondary air into the combustion chamber. The flames extending from the burner nozzles are directed into the respective boiler tubes, which exchange heat from the flame into water within a boiler shell. The secondary air inlets direct air around the burner nozzles and toward the boiler tubes, creating an air blanket around each burner nozzle for reducing turbulence and guide the flames into their respective boiler tubes. An improved flame arrestor within the nozzle prevents flame back-flow when modulating to lower firing rates.

A gas valve unit for controlling a gas throughput routed to a gas burner of a gas appliance includes a valve housing, an actuation shaft which is able to set an opening cross section of the gas valve unit, and a stop valve. A linearly-displaceable connection element transmits a movement of the actuation shaft to the stop valve. The connection element has a plastic bend forming an overpressure protection.

A locomotive (10) for spreading a waterproof coil in a hot melt manner. The locomotive (10) for spreading a waterproof coil in a hot melt manner comprises: a locomotive frame (11), provided with a coil support (12); and wheel devices, a spreading device, a combustion and heating device and a coil compaction device that are disposed on the locomotive frame (11). The combustion and heating device comprises a combustion chamber (6) and a mixing chamber (2). The mixing chamber (2) is provided with a fuel gas inlet end (5), an air inlet end (28), and an outlet end (29). The outlet end (29) is connected to the combustion chamber (6). Multiple gas discharge holes (7) are formed in one side surface of the combustion chamber (6) in an axial direction. The locomotive (10) for spreading a waterproof coil in a hot melt manner improves the construction efficiency, reduces human power costs and reduces consumption of fuel gas.
