Abstract
A gas burner assembly has a sheet metal base section having a generally constant wall thickness and a sheet metal burner cap also having a generally constant wall thickness. The burner cap includes a plurality of burner ports and the burner cap is removably secured to the base section to define a gas chamber. The removability of the burner cap allows easy cleaning of the burner ports as well as the rest of the burner assembly. The base section is secured to the cook top by a twist lock arrangement which simplifies removal of the complete burner assembly without the need for tools when cleaning or maintenance is required.
