Application April 1, 1939, Serial No. 265,555
4 Claims. (Cl. 158-28) This invention relates to improvements in fuel combustion control systems and has reference more particularly to a system of the type employing a high tension spark for igniting the 5 fuel. Such systems are commonly used in bake ovens, domestic heating systems, etc
Wherever fuel such as gas or oil is employed, and especially where intermittent heat is used, it is necessary to provide means for igniting the fuel and for this purpose pilot burners are extcnsively used.
It is also possible to employ a high tension spark for this purpose and several patents have been issued showing systems of this type. In systems for heating, which are controlled by thermostats, the fuel is intermittently cut off and turned on, and if the means, either a pilot flame or an electric spark, should not be available for igniting the fuel when it is turned on, it will continue to be fed into the combustion chamber with the result that when it is ignited by any means, serious explosions take place.
It is the object of this invention to produce a system employing a high tension spark for igniting the fuel.- This system is also provided with means for controlling the flow of fuel to the burner.
It is quite obvious and is well understood, that where fuel such as oil or gas is employed, it is quite necessary that 'the ignition means be functioning properly before the fuel isfturned on, because if the fuel is first turned on, explosions will occur when the ignition means becomes operative.
It is an object of my invention to produce a high tension ignition system that shall have means for controlling both' the fuel flow to the burner and the high tension spark in such a way that the fuel will not be turned on unless the spark is properly functioning.
Another object of this invention is to produce a system of the type mentioned in which the fuel supply will be automatically discontinued in case the spark either stops entirely, or becomes too weak to be relied upon for ignition purposes.
. Another object of this invention is to produce a system in which the switches or relays that control the electric current for the fuel supply,
shall be operated by'a direct or rectified current,
50 instead of by an alternating current as has heretofore been common practice.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a system in which the electromagnetic valve that controls the fuel supply will not open until the spark is functioning and has the proper intensityto effect ignition.
A'still further object is to provide a circuit breaker that shall cut off the current to the primary coil of the ignition transformer when- 60 ever the spark falls by virtue of a short circuit,
or an increase in the spark gap distance, or by reason of a ground or short, or for any other reason.
A still further object of the invention is to provide a system of the type indicated in which visual means is present for indicating to the operator the functioning of the spark so that in case the spark is unsteady and is fluctuating, he will be apprised of this by the action of the indicating means and be put in position to take such steps as may be necessary to correct the operation.
Having thus briefly described the objects of the invention, the latter will now be described in detail, and for this purpose reference will be had to the accompanying drawing in which the single figure is a schematic representation of the invention and shows the relationship of the several elements comprising the same.
In thedrawing, reference numeral 5 indicates a burner which may be of the type used with oil or gas and reference numeral 6 represents a fan employed to provide the proper amount of air for combustion. The burner has been shown as mounted on a base I and projects into a combustion chamber which has been designated in a general way by dotted line 8. Reference numeral 9 designates an alternating current electric supplywhich may be the ordinary house lighting circuit or a power circuit, as the case may be. A conductor Ill connects wire ll of the supply circuit with one terminal of the motor fan and with such magnetic control valves as may be found in fuel combustion systems of this type. The specific mechanism for controlling the motor a and the fuel supply has not been shown in .detail,
because it is old and well known and no novelty is claimed for any of these parts. The fuel supply has, however, been indicated generally by pipe 12, which may convey fuel oil or gas to the system.
An electromagnetic valve l3 has been indicated in the fuel supply line as means for controlling the flow of fuel to the burner. In order to obtain the necessary high tension current for operating the. spark gap, a transformer 'is employed which consists of a substantially rectangular core of laminated iron having spaced parallel sides H, a, primary coil core IS, a secondary coil core l6 and magnetic shunts l1 and I8. The
. shunts l1 and I8 are of smaller transverse area than the core I6 and serve to by-pass some of the flux during the operation of the transformer.
The primary coil has been designated by reference numeral l9 and one end of this has been shown as connected to the conductor ll of the electric supply circuit 9, by means of a wire 20. The other end of the primary coil is connected by means of a wire 2| to one terminal ,of a mercury switch 22 that is mounted on an arm 23, which is rotatable about a pivot 24. The other terminal conductor 25 with a bimetallic thermostatic switch,26 that is located in the oven or other room to be heated. This switch is normally closed and is connected by means of a conductor 2'! with a switch 28 which in turn is connected by a conductor 29 to the other wire of the supply circuit. A conductor 30 extends from the terminal of switch 28 to which wire 21 is connected, I to an electromagnetic switch or relay 3| whosearmature 32 is normally held in open circuit position by means of a spring 33. The energizing coil of switch 3| has been designated by reference numeral 34 and this is connected in series with a coil 35 of a circuit breaker having an armature 36. Coil 35 is connected by means of a conductor 31 with the middle point 38 of a fullwave rectifier comprising two half-wave rectifier units 39. The cathodes or filament electrodes of 4 the rectifier units have been designated by refercnce numeral 40 and the anodes by reference numeral 4|. The filaments 40 are connected in series with a coil 42 that makes one or more turns around the primary core l5. The secondary coil has been designated by reference numeral 43 and has its center point grounded as indicated at 44. The secondary coil is tapped at points 45 which are preferably equidistantly spaced from the grounded point and conductors 46 extend from these taps to the anodes 4| of the rectifier. ends of the secondary coil are connected to electrodes 41 and these are positioned so that their tips terminate in or near the fuel stream so as to form a spark gap 48 by means of which the fuel is ignited.
Due to the presence of the magnetic shunts H and I8, the secondary core l6 will have a flux density that is less than the flux density of the primary core |5 or at least a fewer number of magnetic lines of force will pass through the secondary core than if the shunts were not present. transformers with shunted secondary core and in such transformers the secondary winding can be short circuited indefinitely without burning out the transformer.
.It is apparent that the secondary winding 43 operates as a tapped or modified auto transv former. That portion of the winding between the tap points 45 serves a double duty. Since the current used for operating the switch 34 and the circuit breaker. coil 35 is rectified, the inductance of these windings does not produce a lag in that portion of the secondary winding between taps 45, therefore, the current in the secondary in both the high voltage portions thereof, as well,
as in the turns between the taps 45 will always be in phase with the electromotive force.
- Attention is directed at this point to the fact already mentioned that the two coils 34 and 35 are operated by direct current, instead of alternating, as experiments have shown that due to the impedance of these windings, the number of turns must be small when A. \C. is used, compared to the number of turns which can be used with direct current. This means that more current is necessary to actuate relays if A. C. is used. This increased amount of current weakens the main secondary current, available for the spark, out of proportion-to the actual wattage used in the alternating current relays. due to the fact that if the'relays were operated by alternating current, the relay current would be out of phase with the spark current and this, in
It is common practice to provide ignition- Thisis" turn, would produce a lag in the flux in secondary core I6.
Another objection to alternating current relays is that they offer a greater impedance when the armature is in position against the magnetic core than they do when the armature is separated from it.
In a direct current relay, the position of the armature has no effect on the amount of cur-, rent in the relay circuit. The action of alternating current relays is-unfavorable to securing a release of the armature by current changes which may occur in the circuit due to variations of the spark from normal, for the above stated reasons.
Let us now assume that a fuel combustion system employing either gas or fuel oil is equipped with an ignition system of the type herein described. With the parts in the position shown in the drawing, the operator closes switch 28, there-' upon an alternating current will flow through -wires 21, 25 and 2| to the primary winding l9 and thence back to the circuit through wire 20. Immediately upon the passing of a current through the primary winding an alternating magnetic flux will be set up in the transformer core and the major portion of this will pass through the secondary core l6, thereby producing a high tension between the electrodes 41 whereupon a spark is caused to jump across the gap 48 and this spark will continue as long as the primary coil is energized. After the spark has begun to function properly, the fuel can be turned into the burner and this is effected in the following manner. As soon as the transformer is energized, a secondary current will be set up in coil 42 and this will heat the cathodes 40 to the point where electron emissiontakes place. The anodes 4| are energized by current from the secondary winding to which they are connected by conductors 46. A short time will elapse before-the cathodes 40 attain the temperature necessary to make the rectifier operative. But as soon as this temperature is reached, current will pass in one direction through each rectifier unit. and the rectified cur rent will flow along conductor 31 through'coil 35 and from thence through coil '34 to the ground G and will pass from this ground to. ground GI and return through conductor 44 to the midpoint of the secondary. The switch 3| and the circuit breaker 35 are so adjusted that the former will operate on a smaller current than the latter and the adjustment of switch 3| is such that when a proper spark is passing between the electrodes 41, the switch will close, thereby openingthe control valve 3 and starting the fan 6. If forany reason the spark .should not be of the proper intensity, as, for example, if carbon is present between 'the electrodes, the substantial short circuit thereby produced on the secondary will prevent the rectification of a sufficient amount of current to operate the switch 3| which will therefore remain open until the electrodes have been decarbonized and when this occurs the -switch 3| will automatically close. If the spark should be extinguished for some reason, as, for example,
'70. attract armature 36 and allow the again continue. If one of the electrodes 41 become grounded, this effects a short circuit of onehalf of the transformer secondary and prevents the generation of sumcient current to operate the relay coil 34.
From the above description it will be seen that I have provided an electric ignition system for use with liquid or gas fuel which has inherent in its construction several important safety features. As above described, the fuel will not be turned on if the electrodes are short circuited by carbon or if one or both of them are grounded. If the electrodes are spaced too far apart to permit the spark to jump, the increased voltage set up in the secondary between the tap points 45 will increase the value of the rectified currentto such an extent that the circuit breaker will open and in this way the parts can readily be so adjusted that no fuel will be fed to the burner until a spark is present, which is of sumcient intensity to ignite the fuel.
The rectifier units 38 are preferably of the type known as half-wave, mercury, vapor, rectifier tubes which are made from transparent material and when tubes of this type are operated, a blue flame extends downwardly from the anode to the cathode and whenever the spark is unsteady due to a strong draft, or to the fact that the spark gap is getting too long, this blue flame will be unsteady and the operator can therefore see that the spark gap is not operating properly and this visual indicating means serves as a warning signal which, if heeded in time, will prevent a stoppage of the furnace.
Rectifiers of the type mentioned have hot wire cathodes which take an ap ieciable time to heat and there is therefore an appreciable lag between the time when the spark begins to function and the time that the fuel is turned into the burner and this assures that no fuel will be fed until the spark is functioning to ignite the same.
It is possible to employ other types of rectifiers than those shown, such, for example, as copper oxide rectifier-s, but in order to function properly rectifiers should be of such construction that an appreciable time will elapse between their energization and their functioning as rectifiers.
