- the transition part 9 comprises a main passage opening 5.1, which defines the first passage area 5, so as to allow the passage of the mixture towards the combustion area 1 when the first shutter 6 is displaced from the resting position, pushed by the mixture itself as it exceeds the first threshold pressure.
- the transition part 9 comprises a frame 9.1 surrounding the main passage opening 5.1 of the mixing unit 2, such that in the resting position the first shutter 6 rests on said frame 9.1, blocking the passage of the mixture in both directions, i.e., from the first passage area 5 towards the combustion area 1 according to the flow direction A and vice versa, i.e., from the combustion area 1 towards the mixing unit 2.

- the second shutter 7 does not comprise the through hole 7.1 which allows the passage of the minimum flow rate towards the combustion area 1, the second shutter 7 can rest on the rib 10.2 in order to maintain the second shutter 7 in the resting position, thus allowing the necessary clearance between the peripheral edge of the second shutter 7 and the frame 10.1 to be generated so as to allow the passage of the minimum flow rate of the mixture towards the combustion area 1.
- part of the second shutter 7 for example the front part, can be supported on part of the frame 10.1, whereas the necessary clearance is provided on the sides of the second shutter 7 so as to allow the passage of the minimum flow rate of the mixture.
- Figure 4B depicts the position of the first shutter 6 and of the second shutter 7 corresponding to the boiler's low power operating mode.
- the first shutter 6 is displaced from its resting position pushed by the mixture after exceeding the first threshold pressure, but said mixture does not yet exert sufficient pressure on the second shutter 7 to exceed the second threshold pressure, and therefore the second shutter 7 remains in its resting position, such that the flow rate passing through the through hole 7.1, i.e., the minimum flow rate, is directed towards the combustion area 1 in a stable manner, without all the back-and-forth.
- the second shutter 7 remains stable in the resting position.
- Figure 4C depicts the position of the first shutter 6 and of the second shutter 7 when the boiler is working in normal mode, i.e., according to a power between the minimum and maximum power.
- both shutters 6 and 7 are displaced with respect to their corresponding resting positions.
- the first shutter 6 is displaced from its resting position pushed by the mixture, after exceeding the first threshold pressure, and the second shutter 7 is also displaced pushed by the mixture after exceeding the second threshold pressure.
- the second shutter 7 is heavier than the first shutter 6, preferably twice as heavy or heavier, and very preferably three times as heavy or heavier. Since the second shutter 7 is heavier, it is also more robust than the first shutter 6 such that said second shutter 7 exerts greater resistance to the passage of the flow of the mixture, which allows assuring, when working at minimum powers, that the second shutter 7 remains in the resting position without producing unwanted back-and-forth movements, while the passage of the minimum flow rate is allowed through the through hole 7.1 of the second shutter 7.
- the second shutter 7 comprises an active area 7a and a non-active area 7b, with the active area 7a being configured for bending with respect to the non-active area 7b when the mixture exerts a pressure on the active area 7a higher than the second threshold pressure, moving the second shutter 7 away from the resting position.
- the second shutter 7 comprises an axial protuberance 7.3 arranged in the non-active area 7b which is housed in a housing 13 of the valve assembly 4, as seen in Figure 3 , to retain the non-active area 7b in the valve assembly 4, particularly in the main body 10 of the valve assembly 4.
- the second shutter 7 may comprise a stop 7.31, arranged perpendicular to the protuberance 7.3, as seen in Figure 3 , which cooperates with a wall 13a surrounding the housing 13 so as to delimit the penetration of the non-active area 7b of the second shutter 7 in said housing 13.
- the protuberance 7.3 and the stop 7.31 are arranged in the non-active area 7b.
- the thickness of the active area 7a is greater than the thickness of the non-active area 7b, providing a transition area 7c between both areas 7a and 7b, that is preferably curved, which favours the active area 7a being able to bend with respect to the non-active area 7b when pushed by the mixture upon exceeding the second threshold pressure, such that the transition area 7c becomes the pivoting shaft of the second shutter 7.
- the second shutter 7 is made with a flexible material, preferably silicone, which favours it being able to bend about its pivoting shaft more easily, i.e., on the transition area 7c, said transition area 7c being arranged between the active area 7a and the assembly formed by assembling the protuberance 7.3 in the housing 13 of the main body 10.
- the burner 100 of the invention also comprises a sealing gasket 11, which is arranged in the attachment area between the main conduit 3 and the mixing unit 2, for hermetically sealing said attachment area. Since the valve assembly 4 is arranged inside the main conduit 3, the sealing gasket 11 is also arranged between the mixing unit 2 and the valve assembly 4, as shown in Figure 2 , hermetically sealing the mixing unit 2 and the valve assembly 4, thereby assuring that the entire mixture flows from the first passage area 5 towards the combustion area 1 through the passage channel 10.3 of the valve assembly 4, preventing the mixture from leaking.
- the first shutter 6 is a prolongation of said sealing gasket 11, as seen for example in Figure 2 , such that with the first shutter 6 in the resting position, it is supported on the frame 9.1 of the transition part 9, as seen in Figure 4A , blocking the main passage opening 5.1 of the mixing unit 2, as discussed.
- the sealing gasket 11 is an annulus and the first shutter 6 extends from the periphery of said annulus towards the first passage area 5 through an attachment arm 6.1.
- Said attachment arm 6.1 is trapped between the transition part 9 and the valve assembly 4, more specifically by the main body 10, as seen in Figures 3 and 4A , becoming the pivoting shaft 12 of the first shutter 6, such that the first shutter 6 is configured for bending with respect to said attachment arm 6.1 when the mixture exerts a pressure higher than the first threshold pressure, moving it away from the resting position, as depicted in Figure 4B .
- said shutter is made of the same material as the sealing gasket 11, giving rise to a flexible shutter 6.

Description
- The present invention relates to premix gas burners, particularly to burners comprising several passage areas for the mixture of an oxidizer and a fuel.
- Premix gas burners comprising several passage areas for the mixture of an oxidizer, for example air, and a fuel, for example gas, are known.
-
EP3754267A1 , for example, describes a gas burner comprising a combustion area and a mixing unit communicated with the combustion area, a mixture of air and gas being generated in the mixing unit. The mixing unit comprises a fan driving the mixture towards the combustion area according to a flow direction, the burner further comprising between the mixing unit and the combustion area a first passage area comprising a first shutter which, in a resting position, prevents the passage of the mixture and is configured for being moved and allowing the passage of the mixture when the mixture exerts a threshold pressure on said first shutter, and a second passage area between the first passage area and the combustion area comprising a second shutter. Like the first shutter, the second shutter also comprises a resting position which prevents the passage of the mixture, being configured for being moved and allowing the passage of the mixture when the mixture exerts the threshold pressure on said second shutter. Each shutter, therefore, acts like a non-return valve, providing a burner with dual safety. - The object of the invention is to provide a premix gas burner, as defined in the claims.
- The premix gas burner of the invention comprises a combustion area and a mixing unit communicated with the combustion area, a mixture of an oxidizer and a fuel being generated in the mixing unit, which mixture is driven towards the combustion area according to a flow direction by a fan comprised in the mixing unit. The oxidizer is preferably air and the fuel is preferably gas. The burner further comprises between the mixing unit and the combustion area a first passage area comprising a first shutter which, in a resting position, prevents the passage of the mixture, said first shutter being configured for being moved and allowing the passage of the mixture when the mixture exerts a pressure higher than a first threshold pressure on said shutter, and a second passage area arranged between the first passage area and the combustion area comprising a second shutter. The second shutter comprises a resting position in which the passage of a minimum flow rate of the mixture through the second passage area is allowed, he second shutter being configured for being moved and allowing the passage of a larger flow rate of the mixture when said mixture exerts a pressure higher than a second threshold pressure greater than the first threshold pressure.
- With the burner of the invention, it is possible to stabilize the burner when working at low power. When the mixing unit supplies a minimum flow rate, the burner is said to work at a low power and when the mixing unit supplies a maximum flow rate, the burner is said to work at a high power, with a modulation ratio, which is the ratio of minimum to maximum power, being defined.
- When the fan, which drives the flow of the mixture generated towards the combustion area, works at low powers, i.e., at low revolutions per minute, it is usually unstable and can cause a back-and-forth opening and closing movement in the corresponding shutter, changing the section of the corresponding passage area. In the burner of the invention, it is not necessary to move the second shutter so as to allow the passage of the minimum flow rate of the mixture, and therefore said back-and-forth movement is removed when the burner works at low power. Furthermore, the pressure to be exerted by the mixture on the second shutter (second threshold pressure) is larger than the pressure to be exerted in order to move the first shutter (first threshold pressure), which allows the power of the fan to be increased in order to supply the same minimum flow rate, whereby the fan, and accordingly the burner as well, is more stable. Moreover, in the burner of the invention it is also possible to reduce the minimum flow rate even further, maintaining the stability in the supply of said minimum flow rate, thereby enabling the modulation ratio of the burner to be expanded.
- Like the first shutter, while in the resting position, it does not allow the passage of the mixture, acting as a non-return valve, preventing the flame from being able to move back in the event of a malfunction of the burner. Therefore, the burner of the invention provides a more stable burner when it works at low power without sacrificing safety, and with the possibility of expanding the modulation ratio.
- These and other advantages and features of the invention will become apparent in view of the figures and of the detailed description of the invention.

Figure 1 shows apremix gas burner 100 associated with a gas boiler not shown in the figures. Thegas burner 100 of the invention comprises acombustion area 1 and amixing unit 2 communicated with thecombustion area 1, with a mixture of an oxidizer and a fuel being generated in themixing unit 2, which mixture is driven towards thecombustion area 1 according to a flow direction A by a fan 2.1 comprised in themixing unit 2. Preferably, the oxidizer is air and the fuel is gas. Theburner 100 further comprises between themixing unit 2 and the combustion area 1 afirst passage area 5 comprising afirst shutter 6 which, in a resting position, prevents the passage of the mixture, as seen inFigure 4A , with saidfirst shutter 6 being configured for being moved and allowing the passage of the mixture when the mixture exerts a pressure higher than a first threshold pressure on saidfirst shutter 6 according to the flow direction A, as seen inFigure 4B . Theburner 100 also comprises asecond passage area 8 arranged between thefirst passage area 5 and thecombustion area 1 comprising asecond shutter 7, with thesecond shutter 7 therefore being arranged downstream of thefirst shutter 6 according to the flow direction A. Thesecond shutter 7 comprises a resting position in which the passage of a minimum flow rate of the mixture through thesecond passage area 8 is allowed, with thesecond shutter 7 being configured for being moved and allowing the passage of a larger flow rate of the mixture when said mixture exerts a pressure higher than a second threshold pressure greater than the first threshold pressure, as seen inFigure 4C . - With the
burner 100 of the invention, the gas boiler associated with saidburner 100 is successfully stabilised when the gas boiler works at low power. When themixing unit 2 supplies a minimum flow rate, theburner 100, i.e., the boiler, is said to work at low power, and when themixing unit 2 supplies a maximum flow rate, theburner 100, i.e., the boiler, is said to work at high power, the modulation ratio of a boiler being defined as the ratio between the minimum and maximum power. The higher the modulation ratio, the greater the capability of the boiler to adapt to different power needs that are required, both in heating and in domestic hot water (DHW). On one hand, this allows the number of times the boiler is switched on and off, but on the other hand, the greater the modulation ratio of the boiler the greater the comfort perceived by the user. As a result of improvements in new technologies (for example in the incorporation of thermostatic taps, radiant floor heating, etc.), it is increasingly more common to encounter situations in which the powers required by the heating system such as domestic hot water (DHW) can be very low, so it is necessary for gas boilers to be very stable, even at low powers. - When the fan 2.1, which drives the flow of the mixture generated towards the
combustion area 1, works at low powers, i.e., at low revolutions per minute, it is usually unstable and can cause a back-and forth opening and closing movement in the corresponding shutter, changing the section of the corresponding passage area. In theburner 100 of the invention, it is not necessary to move thesecond shutter 7 so as to allow the passage of the minimum flow rate of the mixture, and therefore said back-and-forth movement is removed when theburner 100 works at low power. Furthermore, the pressure to be exerted by the mixture on the second shutter 7 (second threshold pressure) is larger than the pressure to be exerted in order to move the first shutter 6 (first threshold pressure), which allows the power of the fan 2.1 to be increased in order to supply the same minimum flow rate, whereby the fan 2.1, and accordingly theburner 100 as well, is more stable. Moreover, as the pressure drop in theburner 100 of the invention increases as a result of thesecond shutter 7, it is possible to reduce the minimum flow rate even further, maintaining the stability in the supply of said minimum flow rate, thereby enabling the modulation ratio of the burner to be expanded 100. - Moreover, with the
first shutter 6 in the resting position, it does not allow the passage of the mixture and therefore acts as a non-return valve, preventing the flame from being able to move back in the event of a malfunction of theburner 100. Therefore, theburner 100 of the invention provides a morestable burner 100 when the boiler works at low power without sacrificing safety, and with the possibility of expanding the modulation ratio of theburner 100. - In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the
second shutter 7 comprises a through hole 7.1, preferably having a circular section although the shape of the hole is not relevant, which allows the passage of the minimum flow rate when saidsecond shutter 7 is in the resting position. The through hole 7.1 can be arranged in the geometric centre of thesecond shutter 7, as shown inFigure 2 for example, or on one side, the positioning thereof not being relevant provided that it allows the passage of said minimum flow rate. - In another embodiment not shown in the Figures, the
second shutter 7 is smaller than thesecond passage area 8, such that with thesecond shutter 7 in the resting position, between thesecond shutter 7 and thesecond passage area 8 there is such a clearance that the passage of the minimum flow rate is allowed through said clearance. In a non-limiting example, the clearance between thesecond shutter 7 and thesecond passage area 8 is arranged on the peripheral contour of thesecond shutter 7, for example on the sides of saidsecond shutter 7, as will be described in detail below. - As shown in
Figure 1 , thecombustion area 1 and themixing unit 2 are communicated through amain conduit 3. Saidmain conduit 3 and thecombustion area 1 preferably form a single part. Themain conduit 3 and themixing unit 2 are attached through a flange 3.1, such that the disassembly of theburner 100 is allowed, which is advantageous forburner 100 maintenance. - In the preferred embodiment of the invention, a
valve assembly 4 is arranged inside saidmain conduit 3, preferably close to the flange 3.1. Saidvalve assembly 4 comprises thefirst shutter 6 and thesecond shutter 7, as will be described in detail below. - The
mixing unit 2 comprises the fan 2.1, as shown inFigure 1 , but also comprises an inlet conduit for the oxidizer and an inlet conduit for the fuel, which are not shown in the drawings, with said inlet conduit for the fuel being associated with a valve that regulates the amount of fuel. The fan 2.1 causes the mixture of the oxidizer and the fuel inside themixing unit 2, the fan 2.1 driving said mixture towards thecombustion area 1 according to the flow direction A through thefirst passage area 5 and thesecond passage area 8. - The
mixing unit 2 runs into atransition part 9 which is circular, as shown in the example ofFigure 2 , saidtransition part 9 being part of the flange 3.1 so as to allow the attachment with themain conduit 3. Thetransition part 9 comprises a main passage opening 5.1, which defines thefirst passage area 5, so as to allow the passage of the mixture towards thecombustion area 1 when thefirst shutter 6 is displaced from the resting position, pushed by the mixture itself as it exceeds the first threshold pressure. - As shown in the detail of
Figure 4A , thetransition part 9 comprises a frame 9.1 surrounding the main passage opening 5.1 of themixing unit 2, such that in the resting position thefirst shutter 6 rests on said frame 9.1, blocking the passage of the mixture in both directions, i.e., from thefirst passage area 5 towards thecombustion area 1 according to the flow direction A and vice versa, i.e., from thecombustion area 1 towards themixing unit 2. - As seen in the detail of
Figure 3 , thevalve assembly 4, which in use is arranged inside themain conduit 3, comprises a hollowmain body 10, with there being formed therein a passage channel 10.3 running into thesecond passage area 8, such that the flow of the mixture exiting thefirst passage area 5 when said mixture exerts a pressure higher than the first threshold pressure on thefirst shutter 6 is directed towards thesecond passage area 8 through said passage channel 10.3. Thepassage area 8 comprises an additional passage opening 8.1, as shown inFigure 2 . - The
valve assembly 4 comprises a frame 10.1 surrounding the additional passage opening 8.1 and may also comprise a rib 10.2 going through thesecond passage area 8 and, therefore, divides the additional passage opening 8.1 in two, such that in the resting position thesecond shutter 7 rests on at least part of said frame 10.1 and/or on the rib 10.2. When thesecond shutter 7 does not comprise the through hole 7.1 which allows the passage of the minimum flow rate towards thecombustion area 1, thesecond shutter 7 can rest on the rib 10.2 in order to maintain thesecond shutter 7 in the resting position, thus allowing the necessary clearance between the peripheral edge of thesecond shutter 7 and the frame 10.1 to be generated so as to allow the passage of the minimum flow rate of the mixture towards thecombustion area 1. In the absence of the rib 10.2 dividing the additional passage opening 8.1, part of thesecond shutter 7, for example the front part, can be supported on part of the frame 10.1, whereas the necessary clearance is provided on the sides of thesecond shutter 7 so as to allow the passage of the minimum flow rate of the mixture. -
Figure 4B depicts the position of thefirst shutter 6 and of thesecond shutter 7 corresponding to the boiler's low power operating mode. Thefirst shutter 6 is displaced from its resting position pushed by the mixture after exceeding the first threshold pressure, but said mixture does not yet exert sufficient pressure on thesecond shutter 7 to exceed the second threshold pressure, and therefore thesecond shutter 7 remains in its resting position, such that the flow rate passing through the through hole 7.1, i.e., the minimum flow rate, is directed towards thecombustion area 1 in a stable manner, without all the back-and-forth. Although there can be a small back-and-forth movement in thefirst shutter 6 due to the instability of the fan 2.1 by working at low power, thesecond shutter 7 remains stable in the resting position. -
Figure 4C depicts the position of thefirst shutter 6 and of thesecond shutter 7 when the boiler is working in normal mode, i.e., according to a power between the minimum and maximum power. In this operating mode, bothshutters first shutter 6 is displaced from its resting position pushed by the mixture, after exceeding the first threshold pressure, and thesecond shutter 7 is also displaced pushed by the mixture after exceeding the second threshold pressure. - In the preferred embodiment of the invention the
second shutter 7 is heavier than thefirst shutter 6, preferably twice as heavy or heavier, and very preferably three times as heavy or heavier. Since thesecond shutter 7 is heavier, it is also more robust than thefirst shutter 6 such that saidsecond shutter 7 exerts greater resistance to the passage of the flow of the mixture, which allows assuring, when working at minimum powers, that thesecond shutter 7 remains in the resting position without producing unwanted back-and-forth movements, while the passage of the minimum flow rate is allowed through the through hole 7.1 of thesecond shutter 7. - In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the
second shutter 7 comprises anactive area 7a and anon-active area 7b, with theactive area 7a being configured for bending with respect to thenon-active area 7b when the mixture exerts a pressure on theactive area 7a higher than the second threshold pressure, moving thesecond shutter 7 away from the resting position. Thesecond shutter 7 comprises an axial protuberance 7.3 arranged in thenon-active area 7b which is housed in ahousing 13 of thevalve assembly 4, as seen inFigure 3 , to retain thenon-active area 7b in thevalve assembly 4, particularly in themain body 10 of thevalve assembly 4. - To assure the correct assembly of the
second shutter 7 in themain body 10 of thevalve assembly 4, thesecond shutter 7 may comprise a stop 7.31, arranged perpendicular to the protuberance 7.3, as seen inFigure 3 , which cooperates with awall 13a surrounding thehousing 13 so as to delimit the penetration of thenon-active area 7b of thesecond shutter 7 in saidhousing 13. The protuberance 7.3 and the stop 7.31 (if it comprises said stop 7.31) are arranged in thenon-active area 7b. - In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the thickness of the
active area 7a is greater than the thickness of thenon-active area 7b, providing atransition area 7c between bothareas active area 7a being able to bend with respect to thenon-active area 7b when pushed by the mixture upon exceeding the second threshold pressure, such that thetransition area 7c becomes the pivoting shaft of thesecond shutter 7. - The
second shutter 7 is made with a flexible material, preferably silicone, which favours it being able to bend about its pivoting shaft more easily, i.e., on thetransition area 7c, saidtransition area 7c being arranged between theactive area 7a and the assembly formed by assembling the protuberance 7.3 in thehousing 13 of themain body 10. - The
burner 100 of the invention also comprises a sealinggasket 11, which is arranged in the attachment area between themain conduit 3 and themixing unit 2, for hermetically sealing said attachment area. Since thevalve assembly 4 is arranged inside themain conduit 3, the sealinggasket 11 is also arranged between the mixingunit 2 and thevalve assembly 4, as shown inFigure 2 , hermetically sealing themixing unit 2 and thevalve assembly 4, thereby assuring that the entire mixture flows from thefirst passage area 5 towards thecombustion area 1 through the passage channel 10.3 of thevalve assembly 4, preventing the mixture from leaking. - In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the
first shutter 6 is a prolongation of said sealinggasket 11, as seen for example inFigure 2 , such that with thefirst shutter 6 in the resting position, it is supported on the frame 9.1 of thetransition part 9, as seen inFigure 4A , blocking the main passage opening 5.1 of themixing unit 2, as discussed. - In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the sealing
gasket 11 is an annulus and thefirst shutter 6 extends from the periphery of said annulus towards thefirst passage area 5 through an attachment arm 6.1. Said attachment arm 6.1 is trapped between thetransition part 9 and thevalve assembly 4, more specifically by themain body 10, as seen inFigures 3 and4A , becoming the pivotingshaft 12 of thefirst shutter 6, such that thefirst shutter 6 is configured for bending with respect to said attachment arm 6.1 when the mixture exerts a pressure higher than the first threshold pressure, moving it away from the resting position, as depicted inFigure 4B . - To make it easier to manufacture the
first shutter 6, said shutter is made of the same material as the sealinggasket 11, giving rise to aflexible shutter 6.
