  • the gas/air mixing device 10 further comprises at least one flow restrictor 26 assigned to at least one venturi air nozzle 19.
  • the /air mixing device 10 comprises one flow restrictor 26 assigned to the venturi air nozzle 19.
  • the flow restrictor 26 is capable of shutting the flow of air through the respective venturi air nozzle 19 and simultaneously the flow of gas through the gas nozzle 25 assigned to the respective venturi air nozzle 19. This provides the advantage that unwanted variations of the gas/air mixture can be avoided.
  • the flow restrictor 26 is assigned to the respective venturi air nozzle 19 in such a way that the flow restrictor 26 shuts in its closed position (see Figure 1 ) both the air nozzle outlet 23 of the respective venturi air nozzle 19 and the respective gas nozzle 25 assigned to the air nozzle outlet 23.
  • the flow restrictor 26 contacts and seals in its closed position (see Figure 1 ) both the air nozzle outlet 23 of the respective venturi air nozzle 19 and the respective gas nozzle 25 assigned to the air nozzle outlet 23.
  • the two venturi air nozzles 18, 19 have different sizes, especially different cross sectional areas, of the air nozzle outlets 22, 23.
  • the flow restrictor 26 is assigned to the larger venturi air nozzle 19 having the larger air nozzle outlet 23.
  • the flow restrictor 26 is bi-stable between a fully opened position (see Figure 4 ) and a fully closed position (see Figure 1 ).
  • the flow restrictor 26 switches automatically between a fully opened position (see Figure 4 ) and a fully closed position (see Figure 1 ) depending on the air pressure or the air flow.
  • Figure 3 shows an instable transition status of the flow restrictor 26 when the same becomes transferred from its stable, fully opened position into its stable, fully closed position or vice versa from its stable, fully closed position into its stable, fully opened position. This provides the advantage that unwanted oscillations between the fully opened position and a fully closed position can be avoided.
  • the flow restrictor 26 is provided by a flap 27 being pivotably around an axis 28. Further on, the flow restrictor 26 comprises a spring element 29 attached with a first end 30 to the flap 27 and with a second end 31 to the housing 11.
  • the pivoting axis 28 of the flap 27 is (seen in parallel to the axial direction of the flap 27 in its closed position) positioned between the first end 30 of the spring element 29 and the second end 31 of the spring element 29.
  • a ratio X1/X2 of the distances X1 and X2 is in a range of 1 to 4, preferably in a range of 2.5 to 3.5.
  • a bending rod 32 is assigned to the flow restrictor 26 namely to the spring element 29 of the same.
  • the bending rod 32 is assigned to the flow restrictor 26 in such a way that when the flap 27 is in its closed position (see Figure 1 ) there is a gap between the spring element 29 and the bending rod 32.
  • the flap 27 becomes transferred from its closed position into its opened position, firstly the spring element 29 gets in contact with the bending rod (see Figure 3 ) and secondly the spring element 29 becomes bended around the bending rod 32 (see Figure 4 ).
  • the bending rod 32 is (seen in perpendicular direction to the axial direction of the flap 27 in its closed position) positioned between the pivoting axis 28 of the flap 27 and the second end 31 of the spring element 29.
  • a ratio Y1/Y2 of the distances Y1 and Y2 is in a range of 0.1 to 0.4, preferably in a range of 0.25 to 0.30.
  • the flow restrictor 26 comprises a spoiler like element 33.
  • the spoiler like element 33 is capable to provide a force to the respective flow restrictor 26, namely to the flap 27, in the opening direction of the same depending on the air flow through the respective opened venturi air nozzle 19.
  • the spoiler like element 33 When the flap 27 is in its fully closed position (see Figure 1 ), the spoiler like element 33 is functionless. However, when the flap 27 is in its fully opened position (see Figure 4 ), the spoiler like element 33 has a function. When the flap 27 is in its fully opened position, the air flow flowing through the venturi air nozzle 19 overflows the spoiler like element 33 thereby providing a force to the flap 27 depending on the amount of the air flow, whereby said force tends to keep the flap 27 is in its fully opened position against the force applied by the spring element 29.
  • FIG 6 illustrates schematically the turning moment (also called torque) M provided by the spring element 29 on the flap 27 acting around the pivoting axis 28 of the flap, whereby the turning moment M depend on the relative pivoting position, namely or pivoting angle ⁇ , of the flap 27.
  • a pivoting angle ⁇ of 0° corresponds to a fully closed flap 27 (see Figure 1 ) and a pivoting angle ⁇ of 90° corresponds to a fully opened flap 27 (see Figure 5 ).
  • the gas/air mixing device 10 allows to provide a wide modulation rage for gas burners utilizing such a gas mixing device 10.
  • a modulation of 1 corresponds to 100% gas burner load and a modulation of 5 corresponds to 20% gas burner load. Over the entire burner load modulation rage the gas/air mixing ratio needs to be kept constant.
  • the flap 27 of the gas/air mixing device 10 When the flap 27 of the gas/air mixing device 10 is fully opened, the same can e.g. provide for a modulation between 1 (100% burner load) and 5 (20% burner load) a constant gas/air mixing ratio. When the flap 27 of the gas/air mixing device 10 is fully closed, the same can e.g. provide for a modulation between 5 (20% burner load) and at least 10 (10% burner load) a constant gas/air mixing ratio.
  • the gas/air mixing device comprises two venturi air nozzles with assigned gas nozzles.
  • more than two such venturi mixing units each comprising a venturi air nozzle and an assigned gas nozzle.
  • such a gas/air mixing device having more than two venturi mixing units comprises more that one flow restrictor.
