Definitions

  • This invention has been designed for gas burners working with flame.
  • This tap serves the function of cutting the flow of gas automatically and prevents serious dangers in the event that the flame goes off or the flame is interrupted. It provides additional security for furnaces or similar burning systems having a standard simple system. Basically, transforms the vertical movement given ahead to horizontal movement. During the forward movement of the axle (1), the axle (1) shall also be performing a rotational movement and the gas that is taken in with the gas tap through the entry connection (2) is given to the back pipe connection (3).
  • This tap functions as an opening and closing valve within the burning system. When the faucet is examined from above ( Figure 2) the fact that t is of "Y" type saves space.
  • the tap works with the same principle as in other furnaces used on the kitchen bench with security function.
  • the system in this invention also functions in the same principle as in other security furnaces used on kitchen benches.
  • the systems functions with the transformation of the movement given in a vertical manner to horizontal and in these systems transmission of a movement with 90 0 has been taken as a basis.
  • the movement of the system is quite complex and there is a difficulty of manufacturing for the components.
  • the tap is quite heavier and larger than others that have similar features. This also increases the weight, size and cost of the furnace.
  • a pushing knob (6) has been designed as an accessory, which shall be fixed to the cover of the tap (4) in order for it to complete the circuit to a micro-switch (5).
  • a micro-switch (5) can be inserted on this tap and it has been designed in a manner to be used in this way ( Figure 2).
  • thermo-magnet electro-magnet
  • point or surface contact has been achieved between the pin (8) inside the body (7) and the guiding pin (9) that guides it and in this manner; it is made possible that the action is transferred from horizontal to vertical during the point of press to the axle (1).
  • the tip angle (10) of the first part of the guiding pin (9a) is between 70° and 130°. This provides an opportunity for the guiding pin (9) to move more when wanted.
  • the axle (1) provides an opportunity to increase or decrease the movement of the (tap control handle) forward and backwards and different knobs or switch models to be used.
  • the body weight (7) was around 100 and 90 grams in the ones that were similar, it has been decreased up to 60 grams. It may be made of aluminum material when wanted and the weight can be decreased until 20 and 30 grams. This provides an opportunity to construct thinner and lighter furnaces and stoves with security function to be used on kitchen benches.
  • Another new feature of the invention is the fact that their standard height has been decreased from 40 mm to 30 mm. In this invention, the height could be pulled even further down up to 22-27 mm. This provides an opportunity to construct thinner furnaces and stoves that can be used on kitchen benches. This height is the distance from the lowest point of the body (21) until the highest point (22).
  • thermo-dynamic valve (14) in itself.
  • the fact that this shape can be changed provides an opportunity for more different designs to be made in this product.
  • the arm (15) incorporating the thermo-magnet in its structure can be placed in any direction in manner that it shall be max ⁇ 90° to the axis of A-A.
  • the gas exit mouth (3) an also be located in a position that it in harmony with the angular specifications given above.
  • the ability to make connections in different manners in this respect shall also provide opportunities for stoves and furnaces to be made with new designs and shapes.
  • the way of operation of the going out security tap of the invention is in this manner; the axle (1) is moved forward and a vertical movement is achieved in the pushing pin (8) along with the axle. During the vertical movement, the pushing pin hits the guiding pin (9) and forces the guiding pin to horizontal movement. Since the system is a closed circuit the guiding pin (9), presses the thermo magnetic (14) valve and provides an opportunity for the gas transfer channel (11) to be opened. While the axle is in the front position, it makes the conic male (12) assembled inside the body (7) revolve along with the axle.
  • the gas guiding pin that passes through the gas transfer channel (11) passed through the clover shaped wings (13) fixed firmly on the guiding pin and fills inside the male (12) and the gas is transferred into the gas exit along with a revolving movement (3).
  • the gas sent from the exit to the burning system starts burning with the electricity signal sent to the sparking plug in the back system from the switch.
  • the low electrical voltage produced by the thermo element connected to the system causes the thermo magnet to be pulled off and the system to operate.
  • the electrical current coming to the thermo magnet will be interrupted and hence the gas shall be shut off and the system will turn itself off.
  • the guiding pin shall be set free.
  • the forward movement of the guiding pin (9) shall be through the help of the pin (8) and its backward movement shall be with the own spring of the thermo magnet. There is no need to direct the movement with additional parts or systems.
  • the shape of clover does not impose any restriction. Shapes that shall provide an opportunity for sufficient amount of gas may be used. The important thing is to provide the function of bedding (11) and sufficient gas passage at the same time.
  • the micro-switch (5) can be assembled easily through the claws (34) on the cover that has been designed and thanks to the design of the cover, it does not allow any false assembling, coming out or turning.
  • the direction for opening gas is counter clockwise and the direction of closing the gas is clockwise.
  • This revolving angle can be adjusted for a c-value between 0° and 260°.
  • the angles that are used as a standard are 0°-160° and 0°-210°. Checking the flame will be easier for higher revolving angles.
  • the tap When turned clockwise, the tap shall be closed at 0°.
  • the direction of turning is provided through the help of the claws (16) inside the cover (4).
  • the cover When the cover is placed in a reversed manner, it shall prevent the axle from turning and shall not allow the gas to pass. This has been taken into consideration during the design of the cover and the cover has been designed in such a manner that assembling it wrong is impossible.
  • the body (7) may be made of brass or any other material or an alloy of metals of equivalent value that is resistant to heat and gas.
