  • Furthermore, EP 0 552 135 A2 discloses a gas cooker with three concentric flames and US 2017/370594 A1 discloses a gas burner with a high power inner flame burner.
  • Usually, gas stoves may comprise a top sheet and a gas burner. The top sheet can comprise a through-hole at which the gas burner can be arranged. The gas burner may comprise a gas valve for providing combustible gas from below the top sheet. The combustible gas may be mixed with primary air for providing an inflammable combustion mixture. This may occur in a mixing chamber arranged in the area below the top sheet. The gas burner may comprise gas outlet openings for providing flames by means of the mixture. For facilitating combustion, secondary air may be provided at the gas outlet openings.
