Definitions

  • the burner comprises a burner frame having one side closed by an imperforate glass ceramic heating plate 0f low heat-expansibility, which has a very high heat resistance, a flat body in said frame confronting said plate with
  • the present invention relates to burners especially suitable for use in cooking, and which effectively produce a strong radiant heat emitted as a result of the combustion of a gas mixed with air.
  • Burners which emit a strong radiant heat as a result of the combustion of a fuel gas such as town gas, liquefied gas or the like mixed with air.
  • a burner having a fire-resisting material made up as a plate body having a large number of uniformly arranged small holes communicating between the upper and lower surfaces thereof and mounted in an open portion of a burner frame so that mixed gas supplied to the frame is discharged from the small holes and burnt at a position near the surface of the fire-resisting material for heating said surface to a red-hot temperature.
  • This hitherto known type of burner is suitable where an article to be heated is placed a considerable distance from the surface and receives radiant heat therefrom for being gently heated thereby; however, when an article to be heated is placed above such surface, not only is an additional device necessary for supporting the article but also contamination of the surface is possible. Further, for avoiding such unfavorable influences, a heat-resisting material such as an iron plate is interposed between the surface of the plate body and the article to be heated, the radiant heat emitted from the red-hot surface of the plate body cannot be utilized effectively.
  • the present invention has as an object the avoiding of those defects as are inherent in the conventional type of burner, and the invention is characterized in that a highly fire-resisting material, made up as a plate body having uniformly arranged small holes communicating between the upper and lower surfaces thereof and mounted in an open portion of a burner frame, is provided at a position near the surface thereof with a transparent or semitransparent glass or ceramic heating plate having a low thermal coefficient of expansion.
  • FIG. l is a plan view of one embodiment of the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a sectional view along line H-II of FIG. 1.
  • element 1 is a burner frame composed of a heat-resisting material such as an enameled iron plate, an iron casting or the like, and it is provided at its open portion with a fire-resisting flat body 3 having a large number of uniformly distributed small holes or apertures 2 communicating between the upper and lower surfaces thereof.
  • a heat-resisting material such as an enameled iron plate, an iron casting or the like
  • This flat body 3 is preferably of a fire-resisting material produced such that a properly compounded raw material 4is -molded and fired to have a composition. of 62*40% SOZ, 20-56% A1203, 1-2% Fe203, 0-11% MgO, 0.51% F203 and 0-6% Cr2O3.
  • the body 3 has a 2.9-3.2 specific gravity, 7l.5-67.5% porosity and is fire resistant to about 1300l500 C.
  • the body material is so highly heat resistant that no change can be observed even when a test piece is rapidly heated until its surface temperature reaches l000 C. and then it is inserted in water of room temperature for more than ten cycles.
  • the small holes 2 uniformly distributed in body 3 are preferably about 1l.3 mm. in diameter and about 900- 1300 in number if the body 3 is 11.5 mm. x 46.5 mm. X 66.5 mm. in size.
  • a body 3 of this size can be so used that in accordance with the size of the burner frame 1 a plurality of sheets can be connected in airtight manner at their adjacent edges to provide a single sheet of larger size.
  • Element -4 is a heating plate disposed to extend near the surface of the body 3 in parallel therewith, plate 4 is held by a frame member 6 having an exhaust opening 5 and connected to the burner frame 1.
  • This heating plate y4 comprises a transparent or semi-transparent glass or ceramic material of a low coeicient of expansion.
  • a glass of which the essential components are, for example, 1-3% Ti02, 1-4% ZrO2, 1-5% P205, 55-70% SiO2, 20-35% A1203, 3-5% Li2O, and 0.54% NazO-l-KgO (0-4% N212O and 0-4% K2O) and the total of these is at least 95%.
  • This glass is kept at a temperature between its annealing point and its softening point, namely, at about 650-()o C. for starting Aits crystallization, and is further heated slowly, for example, at an increase of below 5 C./min. for advancing its crystallization, and is finally kept at such a temperature that there is obtained a product that contains substantial crystalline structure but is transparent or semi-transparent.
  • This latter is about 800 to 900 C., this completing the heat treatment, whereby there is obtained a product which is transparent or semi-transparent and is of a low expansibility crystal which is below 10X 10-7 (including negative) in expansion coefficient at a temperature range of 0-500 C.
  • One end of the burner frame 1 is connected to a mixing pipe 7 and the base of the pipe 7 is formed to be an air adjusting portion 9 having an adjustable air suction opening 8.
  • a gas supply nozzle 10 is in communication therewith so that a fuel gas such as town gas, liquefied gas or the like supplied from this nozzle 10 passes through the mixing pipe 7 while drawing in air via the air suction opening 8.
  • the gas mixed with air in the burner frame 1 gushes through the large number of small holes 3 uniformly provided in the body 3. If the gas blowing out of these many small holes 3 is lighted, the gas burns near the surface of the plate body 3 with short flames to make the surface thereof red-hot for giving olf strong radiant heat.
  • the transparent or semi-transparent .plate 4 disposed to extend near the surface of the plate body 3 in parallel therewith receives a strong radiant heat from below and simultaneously is pierced by infrared ray, so that its upper surface can be kept at a high temperature.
  • the exhaust gas caused by the combustion is discharged from the exhaust opening 5 provided in the frame member 6, and when the burner is large and is enclosed in a frame casing, the casing is preferably provided with an exhaust opening.
  • the heated plate 4 When the burner is used for the cooking of food, the heated plate 4 whose upper surface is kept at high temperature or through a broiling iron plate or the like supports the food, whereby the food can be easily and properly cooked by the strong radiant heat received from below and and by the infrared rays piercing the plate. This is achieved without influence by the combustion gas exhaust. Even if the plate 4 is rapidly cooled when the food is rst placed thereon or if the food gives out juices, the operation is free from any trouble such as injury, cracks or the like because the same is made of low expansibility glass ceramic. Additionally, the plate is not injured even if cleaned immediately after its use by cold water or the like. Furthermore, the body 3 is very resistant to high temperatures and, even though the same is not exposed it is durable for long periods with an ever-unchanged clean appearance below the transparent or semitransparent plate 4.
  • the present invention utilizes effectively the radiant heat caused by the combustion of a mixed gas in a skillfully combined construction of a fire-resisting material made into a flat body having uniformly arranged small holes communicating between the upper and lower surfaces thereof and a transparent or simitransparent low expansibility glass ceramic plate suitable as a cooking burner.
  • the apparatus can also be used as a drying furnace or the like where any inuence by the combustion exhaust is to be avoided.
  • porosity is expressed in terms of the relationship of pore volume to total volume of the material provided with the pores. Additionally, it will be noted that the distance between elements 3 and 4 is preferably within the range of from about 5 to 15 mm.
  • the glass may be held at a rst temperature of 750 C. for one hour and then raised to a temperature of 850 C. where it is maintained for one hour.
  • the glass can, by way of example, be processed at 720 C. for two hours and then at 820 C. for two hours.

  • said burner having an upper space between said plate and said body which is closed by said plate, the under surface of said plate being substantially entirely exposed directly to said body,
