  Handy-type gas burners equipped with a piezoelectric ignition device as gas ignition means are easy to use and easy to handle ignition and flame adjustment, and thus are widely used not only for metal processing but also for other industries such as cooking. In addition, gas burners with different thermal power are required depending on the application, and gas burners with different thermal power and flame shape are often required even in metal processing. For this reason, it is desired that the specification can be changed by replacing the crater unit without preparing a plurality of gas burners having different specifications.

  In a gas burner that does not include a piezoelectric ignition device, such as the gas burner described in Patent Document 1, the burner portion can be detachably attached to the valve body by screwing the nozzle holder at the rear end. It can be done easily. However, as described in Cited Documents 2 and 3, in a gas burner having a piezoelectric ignition device in the burner body, the lead wire of the piezoelectric ignition device is connected from the burner body to a burner tube or a combustion nozzle device (hereinafter referred to as a crater unit). ) Is extended and connected to the discharge electrode at the tip of the tip, so that the attachment of the crater unit by screwing cannot be performed because the lead wire at the eccentric position becomes an obstacle.

  For this reason, in the gas burners disclosed in Patent Documents 2 and 3, the burner body and the crater unit are connected by employing a connecting means in which the rear part of both the burner holder and the cover is fitted into the burner body and the cover is fixed with screw screws. is doing. When connecting the crater unit by fitting, the lead wire can also be inserted into the discharge electrode, so the lead wire does not interfere with the connection, and the crater unit can be easily separated from the burner body by removing the screw screw. Can do.

  However, since the lead wire lead-out length from the burner body varies depending on the length of the crater unit, that is, the distance to the discharge electrode, replacement of the crater unit is limited to the standard specification. Since it is difficult to insert the terminal of the wire into the discharge electrode, there is a problem that the crater unit cannot be easily replaced by the user.

  Therefore, the standard crater unit cannot be replaced with a crater unit of another specification with a different length, and cannot be replaced due to the difference in the lead-out length of the lead wire. In the gas burner having the above, there is a problem that the specification of the gas burner cannot be changed at the work site by replacing the crater unit.

  In addition, the conventional burner body is made of cast material, and since the screw holes and gas passages of the valve device to be installed in the main body are drilled, machining accuracy is required. Since this is done by screwing in with a seal member such as, there is a manufacturing problem such as requiring labor, and the mounting space for the operation lever of the piezoelectric ignition device is also limited, so the ignition operation is a pressure type by the fingertip In addition, there is a problem that the ignition operation becomes difficult with downsizing.

  The first object of the present invention is to solve the problem relating to the replacement of the crater unit in the conventional piezoelectric ignition type gas burner, and it is provided that the burner body and the crater unit are fitted to each other and between the lead wires. It is an object of the present invention to provide a new piezoelectric ignition type gas burner capable of easily exchanging a crater unit having different specifications with a connecting means employing both fitting and screwing with a ring screw.

  The second object of the present invention is to solve the problems of the conventional casting burner body, and the burner body is formed into a hollow body by fitting a pair of left and right halves of the same form. As a result, the weight can be reduced, and the valve unit, piezoelectric ignition device, etc. can be clamped and fixed in the main body by fitting the halves together. The object is to provide a new piezoelectric ignition type gas burner which can adopt a rotary type.
