Abstract:
1. A gas burner assembly comprising: a first sheet having an inner face, an outer face, and extending between a first edge and a second edge opposite the first edge; a second sheet having an inner face, an outer face, and extending between a first edge and a second edge opposite the first edge, the first and second sheets being secured relative to one another such that the first and second sheets are separated by a gap that defines a substantially thin manifold between the inner faces of the first and second sheets, where an outlet from the substantially thin manifold is formed along the second edge of the first sheet; a conduit in communication with the manifold, the conduit being adapted for connection to a source of gas; a first frame including a first member, a second member, and a lateral member extending between the first and second members, the first member, the second member, and the lateral member defining a central viewing area, wherein the conduit is a tubular member and the first frame includes an opening in communication with the substantially thin manifold and the tubular member; and a second frame including a first member, a second member, and a lateral member extending between the first and second members, the first member, the second member, and the lateral member of the second frame defining a central viewing area, wherein the first frame is secured adjacent the outer face of the first sheet such that the first sheet is exposed through the central viewing area in the first frame and the second frame is secured adjacent the outer face of the second sheet such that second sheet is exposed through the central viewing area in the second frame.
