  • the electrode supporting unit 122 is formed on the opposite side, i.e., a downstream of the exhaust gas, and the flow of the exhaust gas is formed oppositely to the flame of the electrode 130, the flow of the exhaust gas is not smooth and it is difficult to form the flame due to the exhaust gas, thereby to cause a difficulty in heating the exhaust gas. Accordingly, it is preferable that the burner 100 of the present invention is formed such that the flame direction of the electrode 130 is the same as the flow direction of the exhaust gas.
  • the electrode supporting unit 122 is formed of an insulating material such as a ceramic to be insulated from the body 120 and the electrode 130.

  • the metal ball 150 may be formed on the circumference of the neck unit of the electrode 130. Since it is not possible to accurately control the point where the electric discharge starts in the neck unit of the electrode 130 due to errors in manufacture, it is for leading the electric discharge in the metal ball 150 by having the metal ball 150 in any one of the circumference of the neck unit in the electrode 130. Also, since the metal ball 150 is located in a place closest to the body 120 on the surface of the electrode 130, electricity is stably and accurately discharged on the surface of the electrode 130 where the metal ball 150 is located.
  • the metal ball 150 is located in a place close to the point where fuel is injected in the circumference of the neck unit in the electrode 130. It is because the closer place is more advantageous in that fuel is injected accurately to the point where the electricity is discharged. It is also because when fuel injection point is far from the electric discharge point, igniting performance is deteriorated.
  • the metal ball 150 has a hemisphere shape.
  • the metal ball 150 is formed of steel same as the material of the electrode 130 but may be formed of any material which has a superior electric conductivity and strong heat-resisting property.

  • the cross-sectional area decreases gradually to the moving direction of the exhaust gas, i.e., from the point where the metal ball 150 is included to the other side. That is, it is preferred that when the other side of the electrode 130 is cut in a longitudinal direction, a section has a parabolic shape. Accordingly, the electric discharge that starts in the metal ball 150 moves with a swirl shape such as a spiral shape that starts in the metal ball 150 shown in Fig. 6.

  • the rotational passage 143 is formed between an inner wall and an outer wall of the body 120 along with a circumferential direction of the body 120.
  • the fuel mixed with air is vaporized by passing through the wall of the body 120 heated through the exhaust gas mixed with air. Accordingly, ignition performance is improved in comparison with the case when fuel is supplied in a liquid state. Since the cross section of the body 120 has a circular shape, it is possible to inject the fuel mixed with air through the injecting unit 146 by generating turning force in the fuel.
  • the rotational passage 143 may be formed to lead the fuel-air mixture in a single direction. Since it takes a lot of time and costs to manufacture the rotational passage 143 inside the body 120 in one direction, a space, i.e., a groove, is formed by cutting the circumference of the body 120, and the rotational passage 143 is formed by covering and welding a body cover 145 of a ring shape. Since the rotational passage 143 formed by the above method is formed while drawing a circle inside the body 120, the fuel mixed with inflow air is bisected and transported to the injecting unit 146.
  • the moving speed decreases and the fuel flows along with a comparatively fast path, there may be a section in which the fuel remains. It is possible in the above configuration to lead the fuel in a single direction by forming the block 147 in any one of from an inlet of the rotational passage 143 to the injecting unit 146 as shown in Fig. 5. Since maximizing the path of the rotational passage 143 is advantageous to vaporize the fuel mixed with air, it is preferred to lead the fuel-air mixture to another section which is formed to be comparatively long by minimizing a distance between the inlet and the injecting unit 146, and forming the block 147 in a near section.
  • the injecting unit 146 may be formed toward the metal ball 150 in order to inject the fuel vaporized toward the metal ball 150 where the electric discharge starts, to thereby improve ignition performance of the fuel supplied from the fuel- air mixture supplying unit 142.

Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte à un brûleur faisant appel à une décharge électrique comme source d'allumage comme un arc ou plasma tournant avec la circulation, et plus particulièrement à un brûleur de régénération de DPF qui améliore les performances d'allumage du brûleur grâce à la présence d'une bille métallique sur une surface d'électrode conique où l'électricité est déchargée, à la réalisation d'une décharge électrique à travers la bille métallique, et à l'apport d'un mélange combustible-air vers la bille métallique. Le brûleur de régénération de DPF comprend une unité d'apport en mélange combustible-air comportant une unité d'injection à relier à une unité de réaction pour apporter le mélange combustible-air à l'unité de réaction unit ; et une bille métallique sur une circonférence de l'électrode pour allumer le mélange combustible-air injecté. Le brûleur de régénération de DPF génère une décharge électrique dans une surface d'électrode où se situe une bille métallique. Les performances d'allumage sont améliorées grâce à l'apport précis d'un mélange combustible-air à l'endroit où est générée la décharge électrique.
