Patent ID: 7661954

Claim:
An improved gas burner, comprising: a. a mixing cup, said mixing cup has a means to provide gaseous fuel to at least two primary jets, said mixing cup further has means to provide gaseous fuel to a secondary jet; b. a burner base, said burner base has a main burner chamber, said main burner chamber has an inner wall and an outer wall, said outer wall has at least a first series of holes or slots defining a first flame ring defined therein, said inner wall has a fourth series of holes defined therethrough said fourth series of holes having at least one hole, said burner base has a means to provide gaseous fuel to said main burner chamber, said inner wall creates a central cavity thereby, said main burner chamber has a means to communicate with said primary jet, said burner base further having a means to equalize the pressure of the exiting flammable gas-air mixture in proximity to said means to provide gaseous fuel to said main burner chamber; c. said burner base further has a secondary burner centrally positioned within said central cavity, said secondary burner has an end cap positioned thereon, said secondary burner has a small groove defined therein, said small groove is positioned below said end cap, said secondary burner has a fifth series of holes defined therein, said fifth series of holes are positionally located within said small groove, said secondary burner is positioned above said secondary jet, said burner base has at least one secondary air slot defined therein, said secondary air slots communicate with said central cavity and provide air to said fourth and fifth holes; d. a burner cap, said burner cap has a base, said base has a means to be positionally located onto said burner base, said burner cap further has a cover plate, said cover plate has a heat resistant portion, said cover plate is offsettedly positioned over said base and provides visual access to a fifth and fourth flames, said fifth and fourth flames are ignited from said fifth and fourth holes respectively; and e. an ignition electrode, said ignition electrode is offsettedly placed near said fifth series of holes in said secondary burner, said ignition electrode is adapted to ignite a gas-air mixture creating a fifth flame ring thereby, said gas-air mixture from said fourth series of holes is ignited from flames from the fifth flame ring, creating a fourth flame ring thereby, said main burner chamber has a series of transfer channels, said transfer channels provide communication between said main burner chamber and said secondary air slot, said secondary air slot has a smooth radiused transition, said smooth radiused transition provides an ignition flame for said first, a second, and a third series of holes, creating a first second and third flame rings thereby.
