- the igniters of the '817 patent and '424 patents generally comprise a gas collector box, an insulated electrode and a ground wire which is attached to the collector box, whereby the ignition spark is intended to travel between the electrode and the collector box.
- the electrodes of the '817 and '424 patents are insulated with a ceramic sleeve which prevents sparks from occurring at unintended locations.
- the collector boxes of the '817 and '424 patents are constructed from thin- walled sheet metals. While the prior art ignitions systems, such as those briefly described above, provide an adequate means for igniting barbecue grills, the prior art systems suffer from previously unresolved problems.
- the prior art collector boxes tend to quickly degrade or rust, as they are subjected to extremely harsh conditions in use.
- the prior art collector boxes serve as a ground for the igniter and are disposed in close proximity to the burners. As such, the prior art collector boxes are repeatedly subjected to sparks from the electrode and extreme heat from the burner tube.
- a gas burner assembly comprises a gas burner, an igniter, an ignition device, and a bracket.
- the igniter has a ceramic body and electrode.
- the ignition device is configured to generate a spark between the electrode and a ground.

- the igniter 30 is comprised of a body 31 into which an electrode 38 is inserted.
- the body 31 of the igniter is made from a ceramic, such as aluminum oxide (alumina) that has a purity of approximately 92%- 94% by weight, which is a readily available material. It is contemplated that other alternative materials could be used, such as materials which are non-conductive and are heat and corrosion resistant.
- the body 31 includes an integrally cast gas collector (or hood) portion 32 and sleeve portion 34.
- the sleeve portion 34 is configured to mate with the apertures 45, 47 of the bracket 40, and includes a stop 36 which is configured to engage with the wing 44 to locate the electrode 38 above the orifices 22, 24.
- the sleeve portion 34 and the apertures 45, 47 as shown have a square cross section, it is contemplated that the sleeve 34 and apertures 45, 47 could comprise other shapes, such as round, square, or any other shape.
- the gas collector (or hood) portion 32 is positioned directly above the orifices 22, 24 of the burner 20 and includes a single, continuous, generally parabolic wall which at least partially encloses a volume.
- the gas collector (or hood) portion 32 captures the flammable gas and air thereby forming a combustible mixture for the igniter 30 and covers the electrode thereby protecting it from the elements (gas barbecue grills are intended to be ignited with the cover open; as such, the hood protects the electrode from wind and rain).
- the gas collector 32 could comprise other shapes and/or additional walls.
- the collector portion 32 could comprise a continuous curvilinear wall or multiple planar walls which form a box-like or other shaped gas collector.
- the electrode 38 extends through the length of the sleeve portion 34 from a first end 33 of the sleeve portion 34 to a second end 35 of the sleeve portion 34.
- the sleeve portion 34 of the igniter 30 has at least two desirable properties. First, it insulates the electrode to prevent sparks from occurring at undesirable locations. Second, because it is heat resistant, it will not melt due to the extreme heat that is generated by the burner 20.
- the first end 33 of the sleeve portion is sufficiently distanced from the heat source of the burner 20 whereby the electrode 38 can be connected to a lead wire 60 which is insulated with a material which has a lower melting temperature than the sleeve portion 34.
- the lead wire 60 interconnect the electrode 38 with a device which is capable of creating an electric potential which is required to create a spark, such as a piezoelectric ignition device or other electric ignition devices.
- the electrode 38 extends outside of the sleeve 34, whereby a tip 39 of the electrode 38 is disposed generally within a volume defined by the gas collector portion 32.
- the tip 39 is bent in the direction of the burner 20, thereby reducing the distance a spark must travel when the igniter 30 is activated.
- the electrode 38 be positioned approximately 3/16" (with a 1/32" tolerance) from the burner tube, although the device may still work if the spacing criteria is not met.
- FIG. 1 a perspective view of a first embodiment of a gas burner igniter assembly 10 is provided. While the gas burner igniter assembly 10 is shown attached to a gas burner 20 of the type which is typically used for gas barbecue grills, it is contemplated that a person of ordinary skill in the art could easily configure the igniter assembly for use with other types of appliances, such as lamps, furnaces, cooktops, indoor and outdoor fireplaces or any other device which requires ignition of a flammable gas.

- the bracket 140 is suitable for use in retrofit applications to replace earlier- generation igniters and gas collector boxes which have deteriorated.
- the snap-fit connection 142a, 142b makes it simple for consumers to change out the deteriorated igniter assemblies.
- the consumer simply snaps the bracket 140 into place on the burner tube 20, inserts the igniter 30 into the first portion of the bracket 140, and connects the lead wires 60, 70 to the igniter 30 and the bracket 140.

- the mounting ledge includes an aperture 86, or through hole, for receiving the fastener and is provided with a recessed socket 88 on the underside of the aperture 86.
- the socket 88 has a shape which corresponds to a nut (not shown) whereby the socket 88 receives and holds the nut to prevent rotation thereof.
- the nut may be welded in the socket 88.
- Both the burner 120 and the bracket 340 include flange portions 124, 342, respectively.
- the flange portions 124, 342 each include apertures or slots 126, 344 that are configured to align with the aperture 86 in an assembled configuration.
- the burner 120 has a slot to allow the assembler to adjust the position of the burner 120 relative to the igniter assembly 310.
