Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a gas combustion apparatus which is capable of detecting environmental oxygen deficiency with an oxygen sensor.
  • An oxygen sensor used in such a gas combustion apparatus comprises a base body of an oxygen ion conductive solid electrolyte such as a zirconia type ceramic fired body with porous electrodes of fired platinum paste adhered to both sides thereof.
  • This oxygen sensor generates an electromotive force corresponding to the oxygen partial pressure difference between the atmosphere at the measuring side corresponding to one electrode and that at the reference side corresponding to the other electrode.
  • Japanese Laid Open Patent Application No. 51-116438 discloses a combustion apparatus wherein an oxygen sensor is used which has two electrodes inside and outside a cylindrical base body with a bottom.
  • Japanese Laid Open Patent Application No. 51-142730 discloses a combustion apparatus wherein a bottom of a cylindrical oxygen sensor has a small hole, combustible gas is supplied to the inside of the sensor, and the exhaust gas is in contact with the outside thereof.
  • these apparatuses have drawbacks in that a separate means is required to supply air or combustible gas to the inside of the cylindrical oxygen sensor, the manufacture of the cylindrical oxygen sensor is complex, and so on.
  • Japanese Laid Open Patent Application No. 54-125543 discloses a combustion apparatus wherein a flat oxygen sensor has an electrode on both surfaces, one electrode is in contact with the exhaust gas of the combustion flame, and the other electrode is in contact with a reference burner flame combusting under constant oxygen deficiency.
  • this apparatus requires a separate reference burner which combusts under oxygen deficiency, and the structure of the apparatus is complex.
  • a flat oxygen sensor is prefixed in a position such that, under the normal combustion condition, both electrodes at the measuring side and the reference side are in the combustion exhaust gas and, under the oxygen deficiency condition, the combustion flame elongated in size by the incomplete combustion is in contact only with the measuring side electrode.
  • the oxygen sensor of the present invention is fixed to a heat-resistant holder with an opening in such a manner that a measuring side electrode is exposed through this opening and the electrode opposes the combustion flame.
  • the combustion apparatus of the present invention is extremely simple in construction since a separate means for supplying a reference gas such as air to the reference side electrode of the oxygen sensor is not required. Furthermore, according to the preferred arrangement described above, the danger of the incomplete combustion flame contacting the reference side electrode may be completely eliminated so that correct and stable detection of oxygen deficiency may be possible.
  • a plate-shaped oxygen sensor 2 above a burner 1 is arranged with a measuring side electrode 3 facing downward.
  • the flame is under the condition shown by a solid line 5 and is thus separated by a considerable distance from the oxygen sensor 2. Therefore, there is substantially no oxygen concentration difference between the upper side (reference side electrode 4) and the lower side (the measuring side electrode 3) of the oxygen sensor 2 which is surrounded by a uniform atmosphere of combustion exhaust gas containing oxygen.
  • the output of the oxygen sensor 2 is substantially zero under this condition.
  • the flame becomes elongated, as shown by a dotted line 6, due to incomplete combustion and contacts the measuring side electrode 3 of the oxygen sensor 2.
  • the reference side electrode 4 of the oxygen sensor is still in contact with the atmosphere containing the combustion exhaust gas. Since the measuring side electrode 3 is in contact with the flame 6, the oxygen partial pressure there is close to zero. On the other hand, the reference side electrode 4 is in an atmosphere of a gas mixture containing the combustion exhaust gas, oxygen supplied from the outside and so on. Therefore, the oxygen partial pressure there is relatively high as compared with the measuring side. As a result, under this oxygen deficiency condition, a large oxygen partial pressure difference between the two surfaces of the oxygen sensor 2 is generated, and the oxygen sensor 2 outputs a signal as an electromotive force so that the oxygen deficiency may be detected.
  • the oxygen sensor as shown in Fig. 2, comprises a flat base body 10 of an oxygen ion conductive solid electrolyte, a measuring side electrode 11 formed on one surface of the base body 10, a reference side electrode 12 formed on the other surface of the base body 10, lead wires 13 of platinum or the like mounted to both electrodes, and heat-resistant protective layers 14 and 15 formed on the electrodes 11 and 12, respectively.

  • At least part 19 of the measuring side electrode 16 is extended to the reference side surface of the base body 10 and the lead wire 13 is adhered to the extended part of the reference side.
  • the adhesion of the lead wire may be easy and the adhering portion may be spaced part from the combustion flame.
  • the oxygen sensor is fixed to the plate-shaped holder shown in Fig. 5 and is mounted at a predetermined position in a combustion apparatus.
  • a holding plate 20 is made of a heat-resistant metal material such as stainless steel.
  • a hole 21 is formed in the holding plate 20 at a position to correspond with the measuring side electrode when the oxygen sensor is in place with the measuring side electrode facing the holding plate (20).

  • the gas to be measured (combustion exhaust gas) is not in direct contact with the solid electrolyte or the welded portion between the electrodes and the lead wires, damage to these members is reduced to the minimum.
  • the problem of elongation of the flame to the reference side electrode due to the oxygen deficiency and the resultant decrease in the electromotive force may be solved by controlling in advance the area of the holding plate.

  • the cylindrical holder is preferably a cylindrical body having a rectangular sectional area.
  • the shape of the hole 31 is arbitrary, such as circular or rectangular.
  • the oxygen sensor may be fixed at a predetermined position in the combustion apparatus in a correct and stable manner. Since the combustion flame and the exhaust gas are not in contact with the welding part between the electrodes and the lead wires, damage to this part is small.
  • the combustion apparatus has further advantages to be described below. When the combustion flame lengthens due to oxygen deficiency, this flame is brought into contact with only the measuring side. electrode 16 through the hole 31 and not with the reference side electrode 17. Thus, the problem of contact of the flame with the reference side electrode with the accompanying decrease in the electromotive force may be solved. Furthermore, since both ends of the cylindrical holder are open, the flow of air is extremely smooth due to the effective tunnel. As a result, the reference side electrode may be in constant contact with fresh air. Therefore, the generation of an electromotive force in the event of oxygen deficiency is distinct.
