Description

本発明は、給湯器やコンロ等のガス機器に設けられ、燃焼用空気を給気ファンによってバーナへ強制的に供給して燃焼を行う燃焼装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a combustion apparatus that is provided in a gas appliance such as a water heater or a stove and performs combustion by forcibly supplying combustion air to a burner with an air supply fan.

給湯器やコンロ等のガス機器に設けられる燃焼装置においては、ガス管からバーナへ燃料ガスを供給すると共に、給気ファンによって燃焼用空気をバーナへ強制的に供給して燃焼を行わせるようになっている。この場合、ガスインプットが変動しても、一定した空燃比が維持できるように、ガス供給路に均圧弁を設けて給気ファンからの空気を均圧弁のダイヤフラムの駆動側にも供給し、その風量に対応した圧力によってダイヤフラムに設けた弁体を動作させてガス流路の開度を調整する構成がよく用いられる。このような均圧弁を用いたものとして、特許文献１には、均圧弁に弁体を動作させるソレノイド等の電磁手段を設けて、コントローラが、燃焼させるバーナの数に応じて均圧弁の基準作動位置を複数段階にシフトさせる発明が記載されている。また、特許文献２には、燃焼用空気の流量調整弁の下流に、空気ラインと均圧弁を設けた燃料ラインとによる空燃比比例制御手段を並列に二組備える発明が記載されている。何れも高いターンダウン比の獲得を目的としたものである。   In a combustion apparatus provided in a gas appliance such as a water heater or a stove, fuel gas is supplied from a gas pipe to a burner, and combustion air is forcibly supplied to the burner by an air supply fan so that combustion is performed. It has become. In this case, even if the gas input fluctuates, a pressure equalizing valve is provided in the gas supply path so that a constant air-fuel ratio can be maintained, and the air from the air supply fan is also supplied to the driving side of the diaphragm of the pressure equalizing valve. A configuration is often used in which the opening of the gas flow path is adjusted by operating a valve body provided in the diaphragm with a pressure corresponding to the air volume. As an example using such a pressure equalizing valve, in Patent Document 1, an electromagnetic means such as a solenoid for operating a valve body is provided in the pressure equalizing valve, and the controller performs a reference operation of the pressure equalizing valve according to the number of burners to be burned. An invention for shifting the position in a plurality of stages is described. Further, Patent Document 2 describes an invention in which two sets of air-fuel ratio proportional control means using an air line and a fuel line provided with a pressure equalizing valve are provided in parallel downstream of a flow rate adjustment valve for combustion air. Both are aimed at obtaining a high turndown ratio.

しかし、特許文献１の均圧弁は、ソレノイド等を新たに付加する構成であるから、均圧弁自体の製造コストが高くなって装置全体のコストアップに繋がる。これは特許文献２の場合も同様で、均圧弁を含む空燃比比例制御手段を二組設ける訳であるから、単純に見てもコストは従来の二倍となってしまう。   However, since the pressure equalizing valve of Patent Document 1 has a configuration in which a solenoid or the like is newly added, the manufacturing cost of the pressure equalizing valve itself increases, leading to an increase in the cost of the entire apparatus. This is the same as in the case of Patent Document 2, and two sets of air-fuel ratio proportional control means including a pressure equalizing valve are provided. Therefore, the cost is doubled as compared with the prior art.

そこで、本発明は、コストアップの少ない簡単な構成で性能の高い空燃比制御が行える燃焼装置を提供することを目的としたものである。   Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a combustion apparatus capable of performing high-performance air-fuel ratio control with a simple configuration with little cost increase.

上記目的を達成するために、請求項１に記載の発明は、ガス供給路に均圧弁を設けたものにおいて、ガス供給路における均圧弁の上流側に、ガス供給路でのガス一次圧に応じて弁体を動作させ、均圧弁側へのガス二次圧を一定に維持可能なガスガバナを設けて、そのガスガバナに、給気ファンからの空気を、均圧弁側と同圧で弁体の開弁方向へ加わるように供給して、その供給圧とガス一次圧とに応じた弁体の動作により、均圧弁側へのガス二次圧を変更可能としたことを特徴とするものである。
請求項２に記載の発明は、請求項１の目的に加えて、均圧弁及びガスガバナへの空気の供給をより簡単な構成で行うために、給気ファンの空気供給管から分岐させた分岐管をガスガバナへ接続し、ガスガバナと均圧弁とを接続管で接続して両者を連通させることで空気の供給を行う構成としたものである。 In order to achieve the above object, according to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a pressure equalization valve in the gas supply path, and the upstream side of the pressure equalization valve in the gas supply path is responsive to the primary gas pressure in the gas supply path. The gas governor can be operated to maintain the secondary gas pressure to the pressure equalizing valve side constant, and air from the air supply fan is opened to the gas governor at the same pressure as the pressure equalizing valve side. The gas secondary pressure supplied to the pressure equalizing valve side can be changed by supplying the valve so as to be applied in the valve direction and operating the valve body in accordance with the supply pressure and the gas primary pressure.
According to the second aspect of the present invention, in addition to the object of the first aspect, the branch pipe branched from the air supply pipe of the air supply fan in order to supply air to the pressure equalizing valve and the gas governor with a simpler configuration. Is connected to the gas governor, the gas governor and the pressure equalizing valve are connected by a connecting pipe, and the two are communicated to supply air.

請求項１に記載の発明によれば、ターンダウン比を２０％程度まで確保可能となり、低コストで空燃比性能の向上が達成できる。特に、複数本又は複数ユニットのバーナを切り替えて燃焼させる多段制御の場合は、ターンダウン比が大きく取れる分だけ切替の段数を少なくでき、従来のように段数を多くすることでターンダウン比を担保する必要がなくなるため、バーナの長寿命化やメンテナンスに係るランニングコストの低減も期待できる。
請求項２に記載の発明によれば、請求項１の効果に加えて、均圧弁及びガスガバナへの空気の供給をより簡単な構成で実現可能となる。
According to the first aspect of the present invention, the turndown ratio can be secured up to about 20%, and the air-fuel ratio performance can be improved at low cost. In particular, in the case of multistage control in which multiple burners or multiple units of burners are switched and burned, the number of switching stages can be reduced by the amount that the turndown ratio can be increased, and the turndown ratio is secured by increasing the number of stages as in the past. Therefore, it is possible to expect a longer burner life and a reduction in running cost for maintenance.
According to the second aspect of the present invention, in addition to the effect of the first aspect, the air supply to the pressure equalizing valve and the gas governor can be realized with a simpler configuration.

以下、本発明の実施の形態を図面に基づいて説明する。
図１は、燃焼装置の一例を示す説明図で、例えばガスコンロに用いられる。燃焼装置１において、２は、燃焼に必要な空気の殆どを一次空気として吸入する全一次空気式のバーナで、バーナ２に接続される混合管３には、空気供給管４を介して燃焼用空気を供給するための給気ファン５が接続されている。また、混合管３には、ガス供給路から導かれるガスノズル６が接続されて、ガスノズル６からの燃料ガスの噴出により、給気ファン５からの燃焼用空気と混合させて、その混合気をバーナ２に供給可能としている。
ガス供給路を形成するブロック７には、上流側から、ガスガバナ８と均圧弁９とが夫々設けられている。まずガスガバナ８は、ブロック７の上方に固着されるケーシング１０と、ケーシング１０の開口に取り付けられてガス供給路とケーシング１０内とを区画するダイアフラム１１と、ダイアフラム受け１２を介してダイアフラム１１を下方へ押圧付勢する調圧バネ１３と、調圧バネ１３の上端を受ける受け金１４を介して調圧バネ１３のバネ力を調節する調圧ピン１５と、ガス供給路内に突出してダイアフラム１１と一体に上下移動する弁体１６とから構成される。ここでは弁体１６の上昇側がガス供給路の閉弁方向、下降側が開弁方向となっている。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is an explanatory view showing an example of a combustion apparatus, and is used for a gas stove, for example. In the combustion apparatus 1, reference numeral 2 denotes an all-primary air type burner that sucks most of air necessary for combustion as primary air. The mixing pipe 3 connected to the burner 2 is connected to the burner 2 via an air supply pipe 4. An air supply fan 5 for supplying air is connected. A gas nozzle 6 led from a gas supply path is connected to the mixing pipe 3, and fuel gas is ejected from the gas nozzle 6 to be mixed with combustion air from the air supply fan 5, and the mixture is burned. 2 can be supplied.
A gas governor 8 and a pressure equalizing valve 9 are provided on the block 7 forming the gas supply path from the upstream side. First, the gas governor 8 has a casing 10 fixed above the block 7, a diaphragm 11 attached to the opening of the casing 10 to partition the gas supply path and the inside of the casing 10, and the diaphragm 11 below the diaphragm receiver 12. A pressure adjusting spring 13 that presses and urges the pressure adjusting spring 13, a pressure adjusting pin 15 that adjusts the spring force of the pressure adjusting spring 13 via a receiving metal 14 that receives the upper end of the pressure adjusting spring 13, and a diaphragm 11 that protrudes into the gas supply path. And a valve body 16 that moves up and down integrally. Here, the ascending side of the valve body 16 is the valve closing direction of the gas supply path, and the descending side is the valve opening direction.

一方、均圧弁９は、ブロック７の上方に固着されるケーシング１７と、ケーシング１７の開口に取り付けられてガス供給路とケーシング１７内とを区画するダイアフラム１８と、そのダイアフラム１８に連結され、ガス供給路内に突出してダイアフラム１８と一体に上下動する弁体１９と、その弁体１９を上方へ付勢する調圧バネ２０とからなる。ここでも弁体１９の上昇側がガス供給路の閉弁方向、下降側が開弁方向となる。
また、空気供給管４には、流路抵抗の不安定化を防止するためのオリフィス２１が設けられており、このオリフィス２１の上流側と、ガスガバナ８のケーシング１０との間には、分岐管２２が接続されて、給気ファン５からの空気をガスガバナ８のケーシング１０内へ供給可能としている。この供給圧でダイアフラム１１は弁体１６の開弁方向へ押圧されることになる。さらに、ガスガバナ８のケーシング１０と均圧弁９のケーシング１７との間も接続管２３で接続されて両者が連通し、ガスガバナ８のケーシング１０を通過した空気を均圧弁９のケーシング１７内へも供給して、その供給圧でダイアフラム１８を弁体１９の開弁方向へ押圧可能としている。 On the other hand, the pressure equalizing valve 9 is connected to the casing 17 fixed above the block 7, the diaphragm 18 attached to the opening of the casing 17 to partition the gas supply path and the inside of the casing 17, and the diaphragm 18. The valve body 19 protrudes into the supply path and moves up and down integrally with the diaphragm 18, and a pressure regulating spring 20 that biases the valve body 19 upward. Here too, the ascending side of the valve body 19 is the valve closing direction of the gas supply path, and the descending side is the valve opening direction.
The air supply pipe 4 is provided with an orifice 21 for preventing the flow resistance from becoming unstable. A branch pipe is provided between the upstream side of the orifice 21 and the casing 10 of the gas governor 8. 22 is connected so that the air from the air supply fan 5 can be supplied into the casing 10 of the gas governor 8. With this supply pressure, the diaphragm 11 is pressed in the valve opening direction of the valve body 16. Further, the casing 10 of the gas governor 8 and the casing 17 of the pressure equalizing valve 9 are also connected by a connecting pipe 23 so that the two communicate with each other, and the air that has passed through the casing 10 of the gas governor 8 is also supplied into the casing 17 of the pressure equalizing valve 9. Thus, the diaphragm 18 can be pressed in the valve opening direction of the valve body 19 by the supply pressure.

よって、ガスガバナ８では、弁体１６が受けるガス入口からの一次圧と、ダイアフラム１１が受けるガス出口側の二次圧とを加えた図１で言う上向きの力と、空気の供給によってダイアフラム１１が受ける空気圧と、弁体１６が受けるガス出口側の二次圧と、調圧バネ１３の付勢力とを加えた下向きの力とによって動作し、両者のバランスによって弁体１６によるガス供給路の開度が決定されることになる。
一方、均圧弁９でも、弁体１９が受けるガスガバナ８からの二次圧と、ダイアフラム１８が受けるガス出口側の最終圧と、調圧バネ２０の付勢力とを加えた上向きの力と、空気の供給によってダイアフラム１８が受ける空気圧と、弁体１９が受ける最終圧と、弁体１９の自重とを加えた下向きの力とによって動作し、両者のバランスによって弁体１９によるガス供給路の開度が決定されることになる。 Therefore, in the gas governor 8, the diaphragm 11 is supplied by the upward force shown in FIG. 1 in which the primary pressure from the gas inlet received by the valve body 16 and the secondary pressure on the gas outlet side received by the diaphragm 11 and the supply of air. The valve body 16 is operated by a downward force obtained by adding the air pressure received, the secondary pressure on the gas outlet side received by the valve body 16, and the urging force of the pressure adjusting spring 13, and the balance between them opens the gas supply path by the valve body 16. The degree will be determined.
On the other hand, in the pressure equalizing valve 9 as well, an upward force obtained by adding the secondary pressure received by the valve element 19 from the gas governor 8, the final pressure on the gas outlet side received by the diaphragm 18, and the biasing force of the pressure regulating spring 20, and air Is operated by a downward force obtained by adding the air pressure received by the diaphragm 18, the final pressure received by the valve body 19, and the weight of the valve body 19, and the opening of the gas supply path by the valve body 19 by the balance between the two. Will be determined.

すなわち、ガスガバナ８及び均圧弁９の弁体１６，１９の受圧面積をＡｖ、ガスガバナ８のダイアフラム１１の受圧面積をＡｄ１、均圧弁９のダイアフラム１８の受圧面積をＡｄ２、調圧バネ１３のバネ荷重をＷ１、調圧バネ２０のバネ荷重をＷ２、弁体１９の自重をＧ２、ガスガバナ８の入口側のガス一次圧をＰ１、出口側のガス二次圧をＰ２、均圧弁９のガス出口側の最終圧をＰｎ、ケーシング１０，１７への空気圧をＰｆ、とすると、以下の式１、２で表されることになる。   That is, the pressure receiving area of the valve bodies 16 and 19 of the gas governor 8 and the pressure equalizing valve 9 is Av, the pressure receiving area of the diaphragm 11 of the gas governor 8 is Ad1, the pressure receiving area of the diaphragm 18 of the pressure equalizing valve 9 is Ad2, and the spring load of the pressure adjusting spring 13 W1, the spring load of the pressure adjusting spring 20 is W2, the weight of the valve body 19 is G2, the gas primary pressure on the inlet side of the gas governor 8 is P1, the gas secondary pressure on the outlet side is P2, and the gas outlet side of the pressure equalizing valve 9 If the final pressure is Pn and the air pressure to the casings 10 and 17 is Pf, the following expressions 1 and 2 are obtained.

Figure 2007107865
Figure 2007107865

そして、均圧弁側では、式２からＰｎを導く以下の式３が得られ、Ｇ２＝Ｗ２とした場合、ガスガバナ８のガス二次圧Ｐ２と空気圧Ｐｆと最終圧Ｐｎとの関係が一層明確となる式４が得られる。   Then, on the pressure equalizing valve side, the following expression 3 for deriving Pn from expression 2 is obtained. When G2 = W2, the relationship among the gas secondary pressure P2, the air pressure Pf, and the final pressure Pn of the gas governor 8 is further clarified. Equation 4 is obtained.

以上の如く構成された燃焼装置１においては、点火操作によってガス供給路に設けた図示しない電磁弁を開弁させると、ガスノズル６を介して混合管３内へ燃料ガスが供給される。同時に図示しないコントローラが、給気ファン５を駆動させて空気供給管４から燃焼用空気を供給すると共に、イグナイタを作動させて点火制御を行う。
その後、火力調整操作がなされると、コントローラはその火力に応じて給気ファン５の回転数を変化させて風量を増減させる。弱火力側へ操作されると、コントローラは給気ファン５の回転数を低下させて風量を減少させることになるが、このときガスガバナ８では、ダイアフラム１１が受ける空気圧Ｐｆの減少により、弁体１６が閉弁方向へ移動してガス二次圧Ｐ２を減少させる。よって、均圧弁９では、弁体１９に加わるガス二次圧Ｐ２と空気圧Ｐｆとの減少に伴い、弁体１９が閉弁方向へ移動して最終圧Ｐｎを減少させてガス量を減少させる。一方、強火力側へ操作されると、給気ファン５の回転数が上昇して風量が増加することになるが、ガスガバナ８では、ダイアフラム１１が受ける空気圧Ｐｆの増加により、弁体１６が開弁方向へ移動してガス二次圧Ｐ２を増加させる。よって、均圧弁９では、弁体１９に加わるガス二次圧Ｐ２と空気圧Ｐｆとの増加に伴い、弁体１９が開弁方向へ移動して最終圧Ｐｎを増加させ、ガス量を増加させることになる。 In the combustion apparatus 1 configured as described above, when an electromagnetic valve (not shown) provided in the gas supply path is opened by an ignition operation, the fuel gas is supplied into the mixing pipe 3 through the gas nozzle 6. At the same time, a controller (not shown) drives the air supply fan 5 to supply combustion air from the air supply pipe 4 and operates the igniter to perform ignition control.
Thereafter, when the heating power adjustment operation is performed, the controller changes the rotational speed of the air supply fan 5 according to the heating power to increase or decrease the air volume. When operated to the low heating power side, the controller decreases the rotational speed of the air supply fan 5 to reduce the air volume. At this time, the gas governor 8 causes the valve body 16 to decrease due to the decrease in the air pressure Pf received by the diaphragm 11. Moves in the valve closing direction to reduce the gas secondary pressure P2. Therefore, in the pressure equalizing valve 9, as the gas secondary pressure P2 and the air pressure Pf applied to the valve body 19 are decreased, the valve body 19 moves in the valve closing direction to decrease the final pressure Pn and reduce the gas amount. On the other hand, when operated to the high heat power side, the rotational speed of the air supply fan 5 increases and the air volume increases. However, in the gas governor 8, the valve body 16 is opened by the increase in the air pressure Pf received by the diaphragm 11. The gas secondary pressure P2 is increased by moving in the valve direction. Therefore, in the pressure equalizing valve 9, as the gas secondary pressure P2 and the air pressure Pf applied to the valve body 19 increase, the valve body 19 moves in the valve opening direction to increase the final pressure Pn and increase the gas amount. become.

表１は、空気圧Ｐｆを６０mmH２Oから３mmH２Oの間で変化させた際のガス二次圧Ｐ２及び最終圧Ｐｎ、そして空燃比λ、ターンダウン比（以下「ＴＤＲ」と略記する。）の変化を示すもので、ここで明らかなように、均圧弁と同時にガスガバナにも給気ファンからの空気圧Ｐｆを加えてガス二次圧Ｐ２を空気圧Ｐｆに応じて増減させることで、空燃比λが略１．３で維持されて変化が少なくなり、ＴＤＲが大きく取れる（初期設定１から０．２程度まで）ことがわかる。
一方、表２は、ガスガバナと均圧弁との間の接続管をなくして、給気ファンからの分岐管を均圧弁にのみ接続させた燃焼装置において、同様に最終圧Ｐｎ、空燃比λ、そしてＴＤＲの変化を示すもので、ここではガス二次圧Ｐ２はガスガバナによって一定（７０mmH２O）となるため、空気圧Ｐｆが低い側では最終圧Ｐｎの値が表１の場合よりも低くなり過ぎてしまい、空燃比λのバランスが崩れて空気過剰状態となる。このＰｆ，Ｐ２，Ｐｎ間の関係は上記式４からも容易に理解できる。全一次空気式バーナの適正燃焼範囲がλ＝１．１〜１．６であることを考慮すると、ＴＤＲ０．５程度（Ｐｆが２０〜１０の間）が限界といえる。よって、空燃比性能における本発明の優位性は明らかである。なお、この表１，２では、Ａｖ＝０．３３ｃｍ２（φ６．５）、Ａｄ１＝４．５２ｃｍ２（φ２４）、Ａｄ２＝９．０８ｃｍ２（φ３４）の設定となっている。 Table 1 shows the gas secondary pressure P2 and final pressure Pn, air-fuel ratio λ, and turndown ratio (hereinafter abbreviated as “TDR”) when the air pressure Pf is changed between 60 mmH 2 O and 3 mmH 2 O. As is apparent here, the air pressure Pf from the air supply fan is applied to the gas governor simultaneously with the pressure equalizing valve to increase or decrease the gas secondary pressure P2 in accordance with the air pressure Pf. Is maintained at approximately 1.3, the change is small, and a large TDR can be obtained (from the initial setting of about 1 to 0.2).
On the other hand, Table 2 shows that the final pressure Pn, air-fuel ratio λ, and This shows the change in TDR. Here, the gas secondary pressure P2 is constant (70 mmH 2 O) by the gas governor, so the value of the final pressure Pn is too low on the side where the air pressure Pf is lower than in Table 1. As a result, the balance of the air-fuel ratio λ is lost, resulting in an excessive air state. The relationship among Pf, P2, and Pn can be easily understood from the above equation 4. Considering that the proper combustion range of the all primary air burners is λ = 1.1 to 1.6, it can be said that the limit is about TDR 0.5 (Pf is between 20 and 10). Therefore, the superiority of the present invention in the air-fuel ratio performance is clear. In this table 1,2, Av = 0.33cm 2 (φ6.5 ), Ad1 = 4.52cm 2 (φ24), and has a set of Ad2 = 9.08cm 2 (φ34).

このように、上記形態の燃焼装置１によれば、ガス供給路における均圧弁９の上流側に設けたガスガバナ８に、給気ファン５からの空気を、均圧弁９側と同圧で弁体１６の開弁方向へ加わるように供給して、その供給圧とガス一次圧とに応じた弁体１６の動作により、均圧弁９側へのガス二次圧を変更可能としたことで、ＴＤＲを２０％程度まで確保可能となる。よって、低コストで空燃比性能の向上が達成できる。特に、複数本又は複数ユニットのバーナを切り替えて燃焼させる多段制御の場合は、ＴＤＲが大きく取れる分だけ切替の段数を少なくでき、従来のように段数を多くすることでＴＤＲを担保する必要がなくなるため、バーナの長寿命化やメンテナンスに係るランニングコストの低減も期待できる。
また、ここでは、給気ファン５の空気供給管４から分岐させた分岐管２２をガスガバナ８へ接続し、ガスガバナ８と均圧弁９とを接続管２３で接続して両者を連通させる構造としているから、均圧弁９及びガスガバナ８への空気の供給をより簡単な構成で実現可能となっている。 Thus, according to the combustion apparatus 1 of the said form, the air from the air supply fan 5 is made into the gas governor 8 provided in the upstream of the pressure equalizing valve 9 in a gas supply path by the same pressure as the pressure equalizing valve 9 side. 16 so that the gas secondary pressure to the pressure equalizing valve 9 side can be changed by the operation of the valve body 16 according to the supply pressure and the gas primary pressure. Can be secured up to about 20%. Therefore, the improvement of the air-fuel ratio performance can be achieved at low cost. In particular, in the case of multistage control in which a plurality of burners or a plurality of units of burners are switched and burned, the number of switching stages can be reduced by the amount that TDR can be increased, and it is not necessary to secure TDR by increasing the number of stages as in the prior art. Therefore, it can be expected to extend the life of the burner and reduce the running cost related to maintenance.
Further, here, the branch pipe 22 branched from the air supply pipe 4 of the air supply fan 5 is connected to the gas governor 8, and the gas governor 8 and the pressure equalizing valve 9 are connected by the connection pipe 23 so as to communicate with each other. Therefore, the air supply to the pressure equalizing valve 9 and the gas governor 8 can be realized with a simpler configuration.

なお、上記形態では、分岐管をガスガバナに接続し、ガスガバナと均圧弁とを接続管で接続しているが、ガスガバナと均圧弁へ同圧の空気供給が可能であれば、例えば接続管を省略して分岐管を二股にし、夫々をガスガバナと均圧弁とに接続する構造とする等、他の形態を採用しても差し支えない。
また、ガスガバナや均圧弁の構成も、上記形態に限らず、給気ファンからの空気の供給圧に応じてガス供給量が調整可能であれば、弁体の配置や付勢方向等は適宜変更可能である。
そして、本発明の燃焼装置は、ガスコンロに限らず、燃焼用空気を給気ファンによってバーナへ強制的に供給して燃焼を行うガス機器であれば、グリルや給湯器等にも適用可能である。
In the above embodiment, the branch pipe is connected to the gas governor, and the gas governor and the pressure equalizing valve are connected by the connecting pipe. However, if the same pressure air can be supplied to the gas governor and the pressure equalizing valve, for example, the connecting pipe is omitted. Then, other forms such as a structure in which the branch pipe is bifurcated and each is connected to the gas governor and the pressure equalizing valve may be adopted.
In addition, the configuration of the gas governor and the pressure equalizing valve is not limited to the above-described configuration, and if the gas supply amount can be adjusted according to the air supply pressure from the air supply fan, the arrangement and biasing direction of the valve body and the like can be changed as appropriate. Is possible.
The combustion apparatus of the present invention is not limited to a gas stove, and can be applied to a grill, a water heater, or the like as long as it is a gas device that performs combustion by forcibly supplying combustion air to a burner with an air supply fan. .
