    • DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  • Referring to the drawings and initially to FIGS. 1-7, a gas control knob for a gas stove in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a valve body 10 having an inside formed with a gas inlet hole (not shown) and a gas outlet hole (not shown), a valve seat 11 mounted on the valve body 10, a control lever 12 movably mounted in the valve seat 11 and movable by a pressing action to regulate a gas flow rate between the gas inlet hole and the gas outlet hole of the valve body 10, a fixing bracket 20 mounted on the valve body 10 and located above the control lever 12, a motor 30 mounted on the fixing bracket 20, a transmission mechanism 40 mounted on the fixing bracket 20 and driven by the motor 30, and a linear displacement mechanism 50 mounted on the fixing bracket 20 and driven by the transmission mechanism 40 to perform a linear motion to press the control lever 12 so as to regulate the gas flow rate between the gas inlet hole and the gas outlet hole of the valve body 10 automatically.
  • The fixing bracket 20 is a hollow frame encompassing the valve seat 11 and the control lever 12. The fixing bracket 20 has a bottom provided with a locking seat 21 secured to the valve body 10 by bolts (not shown). The fixing bracket 20 has a top plate provided with a bushing 22 extended to the control lever 12 and having an upper end formed with a rotation hole 23 and a lower end formed with a limit hole 24 having a dimension greater than that of the rotation hole 23. The limit hole 24 of the fixing bracket 20 has a side formed with an axially extended flattened face 242. The fixing bracket 20 has a side formed with a mounting hole 27. The fixing bracket 20 has a periphery provided with two spaced pivot ears 25 each formed with a pivot hole 26.
  • The motor 30 is mounted in the mounting hole 27 of the fixing bracket 20 and has a drive worm 31 protruding from the fixing bracket 20.
  • The transmission mechanism 40 includes a shaft 41 mounted on the fixing bracket 20, and a transmission worm 42 rotatably mounted on the shaft 41 and having an end provided with a transmission wormwheel 43 meshing with and rotated by the drive worm 31 of the motor 30. The shaft 41 of the transmission mechanism 40 is mounted between the two pivot ears 25 of the fixing bracket 20 and has two ends each mounted in the respective pivot hole 26 of the fixing bracket 20. When the motor 30 is started, the drive worm 31 is driven to rotate the transmission wormwheel 43 which rotates the transmission worm 42. Thus, the motor 30 is operated in a wire control manner or a remote control manner to drive and rotate the transmission worm 42.
  • The linear displacement mechanism 50 includes a movable member 54 movably mounted in the limit hole 24 of the fixing bracket 20 and movable to press or release the control lever 12, a rotation shaft 51 rotatably mounted in the rotation hole 23 of the fixing bracket 20 and having a lower end provided with a co-axial lead screw 512 screwed into the movable member 54 to drive the movable member 54 to move axially in the limit hole 24 of the fixing bracket 20 by rotation of the rotation shaft 51, a driven wormwheel 52 meshing with and rotated by the transmission worm 42, and a spring 53 mounted on the rotation shaft 51 and having a lower end secured to and driven by the driven wormwheel 52 and an upper end secured to an upper end of the rotation shaft 51 to drive and rotate the rotation shaft 51.
  • The upper end of the rotation shaft 51 protrudes from the bushing 22 of the fixing bracket 20 and is provided with an enlarged cover 510 and a push button 511 located above the enlarged cover 510. The driven wormwheel 52 is rested on the bushing 22 of the fixing bracket 20 and has a central portion formed with a through hole 520 rotatably mounted on the rotation shaft 51. The upper end of the spring 53 is secured to the enlarged cover 510 of the rotation shaft 51 so that the rotation shaft 51 is driven and rotated by the spring 53. The movable member 54 has an inside formed with a screw bore 540 screwed onto the lead screw 512 of the rotation shaft 51. The movable member 54 has a side formed with an axially extended flattened face 542 rested on the flattened face 242 of the limit hole 24 of the fixing bracket 20 so that the movable member 54 is limited in the limit hole 24 of the fixing bracket 20 without rotation.
  • A protective hood 60 is mounted on the top of the fixing bracket 20 to encompass the transmission mechanism 40 and the linear displacement mechanism 50 and has a top plate formed with a passage 61 to allow passage of the push button 511 of the rotation shaft 51.
  • In operation, the motor 30 is operated in a wire control manner or a remote control manner to rotate the drive worm 31 which rotates the transmission wormwheel 43 which rotates the transmission worm 42 which rotates the driven wormwheel 52 which drives the spring 53 to rotate the rotation shaft 51 which rotates the lead screw 512 which drives the movable member 54 to axially move in the limit hole 24 of the fixing bracket 20 upward or downward by rotation of the rotation shaft 51 to press or release the control lever 12 so as to regulate the gas flow rate between the gas inlet hole and the gas outlet hole of the valve body 10 automatically.
  • Alternatively, the push button 511 of the rotation shaft 51 is pushed downward by a user's one hand to drive the movable member 54 to move downward to press the control lever 12 so as to regulate the gas flow rate between the gas inlet hole and the gas outlet hole of the valve body 10 manually. At this time, the driven wormwheel 52 is not moved with the rotation shaft 51, and the displacement is absorbed by the spring 53.
  • Accordingly, the gas control knob is selectively operated manually or automatically, thereby facilitating a user operating the gas control knob.
  • Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, the push button 511 of the rotation shaft 51 is removed, so that the gas control knob is operated automatically.
  • Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment(s) as mentioned above, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. It is, therefore, contemplated that the appended claim or claims will cover such modifications and variations that fall within the true scope of the invention.
