Generally, this type of gas combustion equipment employs a thermocouple as the first sensor and an oxygen concentration difference sensor as the second sensor, and both sensors are incorporated in separate circuits, and the main burner is equipped with a thermocouple as the first sensor and an oxygen concentration difference sensor as the second sensor. When this occurs, the oxygen concentration difference caused by CO generates an electromotive force in the oxygen concentration difference sensor, and this electromotive force acts on the circuit on the thermocouple side to close the electromagnetic safety valve and stop the gas supply to both burners. is configured to do so. For this reason, in conventional gas combustion devices of this type, if an abnormality occurs in the oxygen concentration difference sensor itself, which is the second sensor, as long as there is no abnormality in the circuit including the thermocouple, even if incomplete combustion occurs in the main burner.

By the way, the oxygen concentration difference sensor used in the above-mentioned gas combustion equipment is equipped with an oxygen concentration cell made of an oxygen ion conductive solid electrolyte such as zirconia with electrode layers such as porous platinum deposited on both sides. As a result, the internal resistance decreases from about 100 MΩ to about 20Ω, and when a difference in oxygen concentration occurs between the two electrode layers after reaching a predetermined temperature, an electromotive force of 700 mV to 800 mV is generated. On the other hand, thermocouples used in conjunction with oxygen concentration difference sensors usually have an internal resistance of about 10 mΩ and an electromotive force of about 25 mV when heated. Therefore, there is a large difference in the characteristics of these two, and it is necessary to use a special electromagnetic safety valve to use both of them together.

In a gas combustion device having such a configuration, when only the pilot burner is ignited, the electromagnetic safety valve is opened by the electromotive force generated in the power generation element via the normally closed switch, and the main gas passage is kept open, and when the main burner is ignited, the normally closed switch is opened. When the switch is opened, the electromagnetic safety valve is opened mainly by the electromotive force generated in the oxygen concentration difference sensor, and the main gas passage is kept open. Therefore, if an abnormality occurs in the oxygen concentration difference sensor itself, for example, if the oxygen concentration difference sensor does not reduce its internal resistance value even if it is heated, or if its internal resistance value becomes abnormally large, the electromagnetic It is extremely safe because the safety valve closes and the main gas passage is closed. In addition, since this gas combustion device uses a power generation element with a larger internal resistance and electromotive force as the first sensor than a thermocouple, an electromagnetic safety valve that can be used in conjunction with the oxygen concentration difference sensor used as the second sensor is also used. freedom of choice will be expanded. Therefore, in the gas combustion device, there is no need to use a special electromagnetic safety valve that can be used in conjunction with a thermocouple.

Therefore, the electromagnet 21 in the electromagnetic safety valve 20
As shown in FIG. 2, the electromagnetic coil 21a has one end connected to the (+) pole side of the first sensor 41 disposed within the flame of the pilot burner 17, and the other end connected to the flame of the main burner 11. It is connected to the (-) pole side of the second sensor 42 disposed inside. The first sensor 41 is a thermoelectric power generation element made of a sintered body of iron, silica, etc. that utilizes the Seebeck effect, and is disposed at a location where an electromotive force is generated during normal combustion within the flame of the pilot burner 17, and when heated to approximately 700°C. The internal resistance decreases from about 5Ω to about 0.4Ω, generating an electromotive force of about 200mV. Also, the second
The sensor 42 is a flat oxygen concentration difference sensor that forms an oxygen concentration battery by depositing electrode layers such as porous platinum on both sides of an oxygen ion conductive solid electrolyte such as zirconia. The internal resistance decreases from approximately 100MΩ to approximately 20Ω, and a difference in oxygen concentration occurs between the two electrode layers during heating.

The oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 is located at the boundary between the inner flame and the outer flame in the flame of the main burner 11 during normal combustion.During normal combustion, the lower surface of the sensor is the inner flame and the upper surface of the sensor is the inner flame. When exposed to an external flame, an electromotive force is generated due to the oxygen concentration difference between the inner and outer flames, and during incomplete combustion, the inner flame stretches and both sides of the sensor are surrounded by the inner flame, reducing or preventing the electromotive force from being generated. The (+) pole side of this oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 is connected to a thermoelectric generator 41
is connected to the (-) pole side of the thermoelectric power generating element 41.
and the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 are connected in series with the same polarity.

On the other hand, an actuating piece 31b provided on the actuating rod 31 of the automatic on-off valve 30 is provided with a normally closed switch 43 that is opened and closed by the actuating piece 31b.
The normally closed switch 43 is configured to be opened when the automatic on-off valve 30 opens the downstream side of the main gas passage 12 due to water supply to the heat exchanger 16. This normally closed switch 43 is connected to the thermoelectric generator 4

In the gas combustion device configured in this way,
When not in use, the main gas passage 12 is closed by the electromagnetic safety valve 20 and the automatic on-off valve 30, and the normally closed switch 43 is closed. In this state, open the gas main valve (not shown) and open the electromagnetic safety valve 20.
When the operating rod 24 is pushed against the spring 26, the upstream side of the main gas passage 12 is opened and gas is supplied to the pilot burner 17 through the pilot gas passage 13.At the same time, an igniter (not shown) is activated to supply the pilot burner 17 with the main gas passage 12. ignited. As a result, the thermoelectric generating element 41 is heated and an electromotive force is generated, and the thermoelectric generating element 41 and the electromagnetic coil 21a
An exciting current is applied to the closed circuit of the normally closed switch 43, and the electromagnet 21 is excited. As a result,
The operating rod 24 of the electromagnetic safety valve 20 is attracted and held by the electromagnet 21, and the main gas passage 12 is held open. Note that during this time, since the internal resistance of the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 is large, almost no current is applied to the closed circuit of the thermoelectric generating element 41, the electromagnetic coil 21a, and the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42. Next, when water is supplied to the heat exchanger 16, the automatic opening/closing valve 30 operates to open the downstream side of the main gas passage 12, and gas is supplied to the main burner 11. For this reason,
The main burner 11 is ignited by the pilot burner 17, and the oxygen concentration difference sensor 4 is activated during normal combustion.
2 is heated to generate an electromotive force. Note that although the normally closed switch 43 is opened by the operation of the automatic on-off valve 30, the capacitor 44 from the thermoelectric generating element 41 is charged for a short period of time until an electromotive force is generated in the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42. A circuit is formed,
Excitation current is applied to the electromagnetic coil 21a, and the electromagnetic safety valve 20 keeps the upstream side of the main gas passage 12 open.

Therefore, when an electromotive force is generated in the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42, this electromotive force and an electromotive force generated in the thermoelectric generation element 41 generate an exciting current in the closed circuit of the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42, the thermoelectric generation element 41, and the electromagnetic coil 21a. Electricity is applied, and the electromagnet 21 is excited. As a result, the operating rod 24 of the electromagnetic safety valve 20 is attracted to the electromagnet 21 mainly by the electromotive force of the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42, and the main gas passage 12 is held open. Further, when the water supply is stopped in order to extinguish only the main burner 11, the automatic on-off valve 30 is closed and the normally closed switch 43 is opened. As a result, an excitation current is applied to the closed circuit of the thermoelectric generating element 41, the electromagnetic coil 21a, and the normally closed switch 43 due to the electromotive force generated in the thermoelectric generating element 41, and the main gas passage 12 is held open and the pilot burner 1
Only 7 ignitions are maintained. Note that the delay in the closing operation of the normally closed switch 43 that occurs at this time, the rapid and short-term fluctuation in the electromotive force of the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 due to wind, etc. are compensated for by the discharge of the condenser 44.

By the way, in the gas combustion apparatus, when incomplete combustion occurs in the main burner 11, the electromotive force of the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 decreases extremely or becomes zero, and because the internal resistance of the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 is large, heat is generated. Depending on the electromotive force generated in the power generating element 41, sufficient current to excite the electromagnet 21 is not passed through the closed circuit of the thermoelectric generating element 41, the electromagnetic coil 21a, and the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42. As a result, the main gas passage 12 is closed by the electromagnetic safety valve 20, and subsequent incomplete combustion is prevented from continuing.

In this way, in the gas combustion apparatus, when only the pilot burner 17 is ignited, the electromagnetic safety valve 20 is opened by the electromotive force generated in the thermoelectric generator 41 via the normally closed switch 43, and the main gas passage 1 is opened.
2 is kept open, and when the main burner 11 is ignited, a normally closed switch 43 is opened, and the electromagnetic safety valve 20 is opened mainly by the electromotive force generated in the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42, and the main gas passage 12 is kept open. has been done. Therefore, if an abnormality occurs in the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 itself, for example, if the internal resistance value does not decrease even if the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 is heated, or if the internal resistance value becomes abnormally large, etc. Since the electromagnetic safety valve 20 is closed and the main gas passage 12 is closed, it is extremely safe. In addition, since the gas combustion device employs a thermoelectric generating element 41 having a large internal resistance and electromotive force as the first sensor, it can be used in conjunction with the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 adopted as the second sensor. The degree of freedom in selecting the electromagnetic safety valve 20 is increased. Therefore, in the gas combustion device, there is no need to use a special electromagnetic safety valve that can be used in conjunction with a thermocouple.

The gas combustion apparatus employs a normally closed switch 43 that simultaneously opens the ignition operation for the main burner 11, and a condenser 44 to compensate for the time difference until the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 becomes activated. However, instead of this normally closed switch 43, a normally closed heat sensitive reed switch or a delay relay reed switch that opens after a predetermined time delay after the ignition operation may be used, or a thermoelectric generator 41, an oxygen concentration difference sensor similar to the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 may be employed. Note that when an oxygen concentration difference sensor is employed as the first sensor, it is arranged in the flame of the pilot burner 17 so as to generate an electromotive force during normal combustion of the pilot burner 17, similar to the oxygen concentration difference sensor 42 which is the second sensor. It is necessary to set Furthermore, the present invention includes an electromagnetic safety valve that opens and closes the gas supply passage to the pilot burner and the main burner.
The invention can be implemented in various types of gas combustion apparatuses with electromagnetic safety valves that are operated by electromotive force generated in a first sensor disposed within the flame of the pilot burner and a second sensor disposed within the flame of the main burner.
