Patent ID: 7507085

Claim:
Gas regulating valve with electronic ignition for a gas-heated chimney stove or similar with a thermoelectric ignition locking valve ( 26 ) and a main valve ( 19 ), which jointly serve both as a pilot light and to split the gas flow into components for a main burner and an ignition burner, and which are accommodated with other secondary functional elements in a segmented housing ( 1 ), a tappet ( 10 ; 14 ) located axially to the ignition locking valve ( 26 ) and the main valve ( 19 ) and which projects from a gasbearing chamber of the housing ( 1 ) and can be actuated longitudinally against the force of a restoring spring ( 23 ) via an electromagnet ( 12 ), said gas regulating valve having a masking element ( 17 ) located on the housing ( 1 ), that in an initial position masks the tappet ( 10 ; 14 ) and a pushbutton ( 13 ) of a piezoelectric ignition element, and when the masking element is in a second position the main valve ( 19 ) is in the closed position and the pushbutton ( 13 ) and the tappet ( 10 ; 14 ) are enabled so that the gas stream can be ignited by manual operation.
