摘要

A generally concave-shaped gas burner head is provided with circumferentially spaced means on the periphery of top and bottom portions for enabling water accumulated therein due to condensation of water vapor to flow out of the burner head without interfering with the burner flame at outlet ports on the periphery of the burner head. In one embodiment, the burner head is provided with a plurality of openings in a peripheral portion of the top portion which cooperate with a plurality of grooves in a downwardly sloping peripheral portion of the bottom portion. In another embodiment, a plurality of tabs in a peripheral portion of the top portion cooperate with a plurality of arcuate openings in a generally flat peripheral portion of the bottom portion.
