Abstract
A flat flame burner comprises an air swirling chamber, an air supply tube provided for the air chamber for introducing combustion air thereinto in the peripheral direction of the air chamber so as to produce a swirling air stream in the chamber, a fuel gas supply tube disposed in the air chamber and having inlets centrally of the space for the swirling air stream and a flame opening positioned at one side in the direction of axis of the swirling air stream coaxially with the swirling air stream, the flame opening being defined by a wall having a thin portion around said opening and a flat outer face.
Claims20
A burner comprising a housing provided with a planar exterior wall having a first perforation, means defining a second opening in the housing in axial alignment with said first perforation, gas conduit means having an inner terminal portion coaxial with the said second opening in the housing, said conduit further including plural outlets spaced from the terminus, and inlet means to introduce continuously swirling combustion air into said housing exteriorly of said gas inlet conduit wherein an inner peripheral wall defining said first perforation has an axial dimension smaller than a radial dimension in order to form a flat flame spreading outwardly over said planar exterior wall.
A burner comprising a housing provided with a first perforated planar exterior wall, means defining a second opening in the housing in axial alignment with the perforation in said wall, gas conduit means having an inner terminal portion coaxial with the said second opening in the housing, said conduit further including plural outlets spaced from the terminus, inlet means to introduce continuously swirling combustion air into said housing exteriorly of said gas inlet conduit, flame control means embodied with the first perforate wall to form a flame having a predetermined characteristic, and an exhaust cylinder concentric with said terminal portion of said gas inlet.
A burner comprising a housing provided with a first perforated planar exterior wall, means defining a second opening in the housing in axial alignment with the performation in said wall, gas conduit means having an inner terminal portion coaxial with the said second opening in the housing, said conduit further including plural outlets spaced from the terminus, inlet means to introduce continuously swirling combustion air into said housing exteriorly of said gas inlet conduit, flame control means embodied with the first perforate wall to form a flame having a predetermined characteristic and collar means disposed concentric with the terminal portion of said gas inlet conduit.
A burner comprising a housing provided with a first perforated planar exterior wall, means defining a second opening in the housing in axial alignment with the performation in said wall, gas conduit means having an inner terminal portion coaxial with the said second opening in the housing, said conduit further including plural outlets spaced from the terminus, inlet means to introduce continuously swirling combustion air into said housing exteriorly of said gas inlet conduit, flame control means embodied with the first perforate wall to form a flame having a predetermined characteristic, and an axially apertured plate means disposed in spaced relation to said first perforated flat exterior wall of said housing.
A burner comprising a housing provided with a first perforated planar exterior wall including a throat area which diverges outwardly, means defining a second opening in the housing in axial alignment with the perforation in said wall, gas conduit means having an inner terminal portion coaxial with the said second opening in the housing, said conduit further including plural outlets spaced from the terminus, inlet means to introduce continuously swirling combustion air into said housing exteriorly of said gas inlet conduit and flame control means embodied with the first perforate wall to form a flame having a predetermined characteristic.
A burner comprising a housing provided with a first perforated planar exterior wall including a throat area which converges inwardly, means defining a second opening in the housing in axial alignment with the perforation in said wall, gas conduit means having an inner terminal portion coaxial with the said second opening in the housing, said conduit further including plural outlets spaced from the terminus, inlet means to introduce continuously swirling combustion air into said housing exteriorly of said gas inlet conduit and flame control means embodied with the first perforate wall to form a flame having a predetermined characteristic.
A burner comprising a housing provided with a first perforated planar exterior wall, means defining a second opening in the housing in axial alignment with the perforation in said wall, gas conduit means having an inner terminal portion coaxial with the said second opening in the housing, said conduit further including plural outlets spaced from the terminus, inlet means to introduce continuously swirling combustion air into said housing exteriorly of said gas inlet conduit and flame control means embodied with the first perforate wall to form a flame having a predetermined characteristic, wherein the combustion air inlet means includes curved baffle means serving to divide the incoming air into two separate streams.
