Title: Sealed gas burner assembly
Inventor: BROCK EDDIE M
IPC: F23Q3/00
Filed: 1991-12-24
Granted: 2003-02-18
Abstract: A sealed gas burner assembly (1) provides fast spark ignition of the primary air/gas mixture by supporting the electrode (47, 101) in an electrically insulative member (51, 103) that is disposed in a fluid-tight sealing engagement through the electrode aperture (31) of a burner head, whereby ignition is facilitated by providing an ignition port (32) directly adjacent an exterior terminal end portion (59, 111) of the electrode. The burner head (5) has a low profile defined partly by a circumferential curved side-wall (31) which eliminates turbulence in secondary airflow to the burner ports during high burner rates. A venturi tube (35) providing the primary air/gas mixture to the burner and ignition is fully contained within an internal chamber (5, 7) of the burner head. The assembly is detachably secured to the burner opening (71) of a range top through a twist lock engagement (75, 81) therewith, and is also provided with a seal (93) to prevent spillovers from leaking between the assembly and the range top into the burner box.
