High Output Gas Burner, Such As For A Food Cooking Apparatus

Abstract

A high output gas burner such as for a food cooking appliance is disclosed. The gas burner is adapted to combust a mixture of gas and air. The gas burner has a cross ring having a plurality of radially spaced channels and a plurality of axially spaced channels. The radially spaced channels and the axially spaced channels are adapted to guide the air to be combusted with the gas. The radially spaced channels have a diameter of the order of 10 mm and the axially spaced channels have a diameter of the order of 8 mm.

We claim: 
     
         1 . A gas burner such as for a food cooking appliance, the gas burner adapted to combust a mixture of gas and air, the gas burner having a cross ring having a plurality of radially spaced channels and a plurality of axially spaced channels, the radially spaced channels and the axially spaced channels adapted to guide the air to be combusted with the gas, wherein:
 the radially spaced channels have a diameter of the order of 10 mm; and   the axially spaced channels have a diameter of the order of 8 mm.   
     
     
         2 . The gas burner of  claim 1 , wherein the cross ring includes twelve radially spaced channels. 
     
     
         3 . The gas burner of  claim 1 , wherein the cross ring includes twelve axially spaced channels. 
     
     
         4 . The gas burner of  claim 1 , wherein the cross ring includes:
 twelve radially spaced channels; and   twelve axially spaced channels.   
     
     
         5 . The gas burner of  claim 4 , wherein the cross ring includes;
 only twelve radially spaced channels; and   only twelve axially spaced channels.   
     
     
         6 . The gas burner of  claim 1 , including a gas jet having a gas jet opening, wherein:
 the gas burner is adapted to burn natural gas; and   the gas jet opening is of the order of 1.25 mm.   
     
     
         7 . The gas burner of  claim 1 , including a gas jet having a gas jet opening, wherein:
 the gas burner is adapted to burn LP gas; and   the gas jet opening is of the order of 1.51 mm.   
     
     
         8 . The gas burner of  claim 1 , including an inner burner head having a plurality of generally horizontally oriented radial openings and a plurality of canted radial openings canted at a non-zero angle relative to the horizontal, wherein:
 the plurality of generally horizontally oriented radial openings has a diameter of the order of 1.6 mm; and   plurality of canted radial openings has a diameter of the order of 1.8 mm.
