Radiant gas burner unit

摘要

An improved radiant gas burner unit is provided having a shallow base with long walls and shorter walls. The shallow base supports a radiant gas burner plate or plates having openings therethrough, and forming an external surface of the base for emitting high temperature gas radiation. At least three mixing tubes are provided aligned with the shorter wall, and having two open ends. The first open end is positioned within the base and the second open end is positioned adjacent corresponding openings formed through the long wall of the base. A gas supply line extends along the long wall and has gas outlets for ejecting gas across an open air gap positioned intermediate the gas outlet and the second open end of the mixing tubes. The ejected gas is mixed with air as it crosses the air gap, and is provided to the openings of the radiant gas burner plate for combustion which produces high temperature radiation on the radiant gas burner plate and external surface of the base.

主权项

1. An improved radiant gas burner unit comprising:
a base supporting a substantially flat radiant gas burner plate having openings therethrough, the radiant gas burner plate forming an external surface of the base supporting high temperature radiant gas combustion; one or more mixing tubes partially supported within the base spaced from one another, and having two open ends, with the first open end positioned within the base and the second open end extending through corresponding openings formed through a wall of the base, said openings having a diameter of approximately one inch or less, such that the overall unit height is approximately 2 inches or less; a gas supply having gas outlets positioned along the gas supply at locations aligned with and spaced from the second open ends of the mixing tubes to receive a desired gas supplied by the gas supply which is mixed with air at a predetermined desired ratio as the air/gas mixture enters the mixing tubes and is substantially evenly supplied to and through the openings of the radiant gas burner plate to provide high temperature combustion along the external surface of the base.
