Definitions

  • ABSTRACT Piezoelectric crystal type burner igniters of a single shot and multiple shot type are disclosed.
  • the igniters utilize a piston for driving the hammer of the igniter from its armed position to its fired position in contact with the anvil of the crystal stack, and the piston is actuated and driven by pressurized fluid means that may be a combustible gas or liquid which is fed to the burner ignited through actuation of the igniter.
  • pressurized fluid means may be a combustible gas or liquid which is fed to the burner ignited through actuation of the igniter.
  • Systems using the igniters to ignite auxiliary burners that in turn are used to ignite the main burner of a heater are also disclosed.
  • Piezoelectric spark producing devices for use in igniting combustible fuels are known in the art. Such devices have a hammer which is moved into forceful contact with the anvil component of a piezoelectric crystal stack that serves as a component of an open electrical circuit which is provided with a spark gap. When the crystal is deformed by the hammer blow a voltage is generated in the circuit of sufficient magnitude to create an are or spark in the gap area of the circuit. In most of such prior art devices the hammer is actuated and driven by mechanical components into forceful contact with the anvil.
  • a recent improvement in the art provides for the use of pneumatic pressure to arm and trigger a hammer actuating mechanism in an igniter that relies on mechanical means for driving the hammer into contact with the anvil componentof the crystal stack.
  • the patentee under such circumstances utilizes a diaphragm to seal theactuating mechanism from the pressurized fluid source and the diaphragm provides an expandiblechamber that acts against a mechanical device for actuating the hammer drive component.
  • Ignition systems which utilize an auxiliary source of gaseous fuel for igniting an auxiliaryburner that is arranged to ignite the fuel supplied the main burner ofthe primary heating device have been suggested.
  • Such systems however are usually expensive to install and require complicated and expensive means for connecting the fuel sources to the respective burners in a proper sequence and in addition they usually continue to consume fuels from both sources during the operation of the main burner.
  • apiezoelectric type spark producing igniter is equipped with a hammer that is and linearly movable with a piston that is actuated and driven by fluid pressure from a combustible fuel source.
  • Detent means is provided for retaining the piston-hammer in an armed condition until sufficient fluid pressure builds up in the piston chamber to propel the hammer into forceful contact with the crystal stack.
  • the igniter is used in conjunction with a fuel gas burner that is equipped with a pressure regulating gas inlet orifree that is connected by a suitable passageway forming conduit to the pressurized source of gaseous fuel.
  • the passageway to the piston chamber of the igniter is connected to the pressurized gas fuel source by suitable conduits which communicate with thefeed conduit to the burner inlet orifice.
  • the piston-hammer arrangement remains in a fired position so long as a suitable pressure condition is maintained in the feed conduit to the burner and biasing means in the form of a coiled compression spring is provided for returning the piston to the armed position when the pressure condition is sufficiently reduced.
  • the ignition system may be used for igniting the main burner of a liquid fuel fired heating device and that certain aspects of the invention contemplate the modification of the system to facilitate actuating and driving the piston component of the igniter by and in response to pressure conditions in the fuel supply at the main burner of the heating device.
  • Yet another aspect of the invention has to do with an igniter of the piezoelectric spark producing type that is capable of providing a multitude of blows against the anvil component of th crystal pack and thus provide successive sparks in the spark gap of the device.
  • the piston is equipped'with a valve component that closes the inlet passageway to the piston chamber when the piston is at the armed position and in an arrangement where the piston defines opposite end compartments in the piston chamber.
  • the piston is also equipped with a hammer component and both the valve and hammer are fixed to the piston and linearly movable therewith.
  • the piston carries a suitable seal and has an orifice which interconnects the two compartments in the piston chamber.
  • the housing for the piston has yet another orifice which communicates with the exterior of the housing and with the chamber compartment at the inlet end of the chamber and this orifice is preferably of smaller size than the piston orifice.
  • the igniter in this instance has a biasing means which may be in the form of a coiled spring that constantly urges the piston into the armed position at which the inlet passageway to the chamber is closed. The arrangement is such that the biasing force of the spring is overcome when the pressure differential between that in the fluid inlet passageway and that in the chamber exceeds a predetermined pressure differential so that the valve is unseated.
  • the piston orifice is adapted to limit the passage of gas between the compartments during the forceful movement of the piston to the fired position and thereafter permit the pressure conditions in the compartments to equalize. This permits the biasing means to return the piston to the armed position.
  • the discharge orifice which communicates with the compartment at the inlet side of the piston being preferably smaller than the piston orifice, is adapted to limit the passageof gas out of the chamber during the forceful movement and returnv of the piston but after the valve again seats itself permits the pressure to reduce in the piston chamber to the point at which the predeter mined pressure differential is againestablished and the valve component is actuated to repeat the cycle.
  • themultiple shot igniter is also used in conjunction with a gas fired burner which is equipped with a pressure regulating gas inlet orifice and the fluid inlet passage to the pistonchamber is similarly connected to the gas feed line to the inlet orifice of the burner.
  • burner ignition systems which utilize a valve mechanism for connecting and disconnecting the igniter and burner to a pressurized source of gaseous fuel.
  • Certain of these other aspects contemplate a valve mechanism which is responsive to pressure conditions of the fuel at the main burner of the heating device utilizing the ignition system, as will be subsequently seen.
  • Yet other aspects of the invention contemplate the use of a valve mechanism that is equipped with a gas accumulating chamber that serves as a limited source of pressurized gaseous fuel for combustion in the burner of the system and for actuating the igniter component of the system.
  • valve mechanism under such circumstances is connected to a pressurized source of gaseous fuel and is so structured upon actuation as to disconnect the accumulating chamber from the pressurized fuel source and simultaneously connect the accumulating chamber with theburner and igniter'co mponents of the system so that the fuel consumed by the burner for ignition purposes is limited'by that which is accumulated in the accumulating chamber as will be'subsequently seen.

  • the other terminal (not shown) of the crystal stack is electrically connected in the open circuit 168 to an electrode 163 that is housed and appropriately insulated between its opposite ends inan electrode tube designatedat 164.
  • Tube 164 is press fit at its opposite ends into aligned bores in the burner and igniter housings as seen in the drawings and the end of electrode 163 is spaced from the attenuating veins 24 in the combustion chamber of burner 16 so as to provide a spark gap 167 in the open circuit 168.
  • the operation of the ignition system 130 is similar to that described in conjunction with the embodiment shown in FIG. 4.
  • valve mechanism 78 exerts a force on the piston 104 in the direction of arrow 122 and which exceeds the opposing forces exerted on the element 91 by the pressurized gas in the mechanism 78 and hence the gas outlet passageway 100 is opened to establish a pressurized gas condition in conduits 131 and 133.
  • chamber 137 is at ambient pressure conditions when element 91 is initially actuated to establish the initial pressurized gas condition in conduits 131 and 133.
  • element 139 starts to move in the direction of arrow 159. This unseats the valve component 153 at the inlet port 152 and establishes the pressurized condition in compartment 154.
  • the piston orifice 156 functions as a pressure regulating orifice which limits the passage of gas from compartment154 to compartment 155 during the thrust of the element 139 from its armed position 176 to its fired position 177 so that the full benefit of the pressure differential between the compartments is substantially realized once the valve component 153 is unseated.
  • the orifice 156 however thereafter permits the gas in compartment 154 to bleed into compartment 155 so that the pressure differential across the piston is reduced to the point at which the spring 172 returns the element from its fired position to its armed position 176.
  • Orifice 157 also serves as a pressure regulating orifice that limits'the passage of gas from compartment 154 to the exterior of the housing and is preferably smaller in size than that of orifice 156.
  • the gas in burner 16 of course is ignited and projects a flame through the opening 124 of the heating device 77 and henceignites the fuel discharged intothe combustion zone 123 from the orifice nozzle 82.
  • the accumulating valve'mechanism 78 of course remains in position 129 until such time as the pressureat'the burner 76 is sufficiently'reducedto permitthe element 91 to move to the gas outlet closed position '128 under the influence of the gas pressure in'container 80.
  • the embodiment shown in FIG. of course has the advantage that if the gas in burner 16 is not ignited by the initial shot that produces the spark in gap 167 there is a high probability that it will be ignited during one or more of the subsequent firing cycles which transpire until the gas is dissipated from the accumulating chamber 107.
  • FIG. 6 wherein the single shot igniter 25, burner 16 and valve mechanism 78 are shown as connected in an ignition system 180 in which the igniter 25 is actuated in response to the fluid pressure of the fuel fed to the main burner 76 of heating device 77.
  • the T-type fitting 84 of burner 76 is connected by a conduit 181 to a T-type fitting 182 in a conduit 183 that is connected at its opposite ends and communicates with a fluid tight compartment 106 of valve mechanism 78 and the inlet port 57 of the single shot igniter 25.
  • the gas outlet of mechanism 78 on the other hand is connected by a conduit 184 with the gas intake end of burner 16 so as to provide a passageway for the delivery of accumulated gas'in the mechanis 78 to the burner.
  • feed line 85 is initially connected as by means of a valving action to the pressurized source of liquid fuel for the burner 76.
  • the pressure builds up'in the burner 76 orifice nozzle 82 is rendered operative and particles of fuel are projected into the combustion zone 123 of the heating device 77.
  • mechanism 78 is actuated in response to the increased pressure so that the inlet passage to the gas accumulating chamber is closed by the valve action.
  • the detent arrangement for the single shot igniter 25 in this system 180 is adapted and arranged to release the slideable element when the fluid pressure at theinlet passageway exceeds that required to actuate the valve mechanism 78 to permit the passage of gas to burner 16.
  • valve mechanism 78 is actuated to permit gas to pass to burner 16 before the igniter 25 is actuated to provide a spark in the gap of the igniter circuit to ignite the fuel in the burner.
  • This againproduces a flame which is projected to the opening 124 of heating device 77 and ignites the liquid fuel being projected from nozzle 82 into the combustion chamber 123.
  • the burner 76 of the heater 81 is, of course,.shut off again by disconnecting the conduit from the pressurized source of fuel oil.
  • the return spring of igniter 25 returns the firing element to its armed position and permits the slideable element of mechanism 78 to close the gas outlet port from the accumulating chamber and simultaneously open the inlet port. It is thus apparent that the igniters illustrated can be actuated by either pneumatic or hydraulic pressure.
