- the radial disposition not only enables the passageways to b drilled readily but the arrangement also reduces to a minimum th length of the arc at the intersections of the passageways with the inner surface M of the chamber 29 and the outer surface of the plug 16. This is an important factor in that the passagewayscan be spaced closer together both axially aswell as radially, thereby to decrease the angular movement of the. plug required to move it between its various positions as well as decreasing the overall length of the plug.
- the valve plug in accordance with another feature of the present invention, is provided with further passageway 30 through which a small and adjustable quantity of gas is supplied to the simmer burner section only in the low simmer position of the valve.

- the seal is comprised of an annular groove 60 in the valve member 36, which is filled with lubricant and an annular indentation 62 in the thin walled outer portion 6-! of the insert 44.
- the stem adjustment means is preferably preassembled in the form in which it is shown and then inserted into the enlarged portion 36A of the hollow 36 of the stem.
- the valve plug includes an auxiliary passagewayfiihaving an enlarged outer end 66, for a purpose to be described hereinafter.
- valve plug is rotatable by a handle 68 which is secured to the hollow valv stem 38 in suitable manner.
- the latter is preferably provided with a fiat side 10, giving the valve stem 2.
- generally D-shaped configuration fitting into an opening of similar configuration in the valve handle, whereby the two are readily assembled in operative relation with each other.
- Gas is supplied to the valve through the inlet passageway 28, which is formed in an externally threaded transverse boss 12 adapted for attachment to the usual gas supply manifold (not shown).
- the valve body is also provided with a pair of longitudinally extending spaced apart exteriorly threaded'bosses 14 and 16, which are drilled to form gas outlet passageways l8 and 86 through which gas is supplied to the simmer and main burner sections, respectively, of a double gas burner.
- Passageway l8 communicates directly .with chamber 20 and the aXial passageway 58 in the valve plug, whereas passageway communicates with the previously referred to outlet passageway 28. The latter is, as already indicated, radial, and after drilling it is closed by a plug 82.
- Adjustably mounted hoods 84 and 86 are secured to the outer ends of bosses l4 and is to provide nozzles through which gas is supplied to the burners at suitable velocities when the valve is in its full on position.
- the valve may have and is shown as including a position determining and indicating mechanism Eli! which includes a plate 92 having a limited extent of angular movement with respect to the valve stem, a plate '94 secured to the valve body by the spaced apart screws 96, and a spring 93 bearing against the outer end of the valve plug and against the plate 92, thereby forcing the latter against the stationary plate 94.
- the spring thus holds the valve plug tightly in place and also biases the plate 92 against the plate 9%, thereby to provide the necessary movement of the latter for audibly indicating certain positions of the valve.
- the valve body is also provided with an axially extending portion I00 providing stop surfaces against which a part of the plate 92 moves to determine the closed and open positions of the valve.
- the passageways are displaced axially as well as angularly.
- the inlet and outlet passageways 26 and 28 are axially displaced (about one-eighth inch) as are the passageways 22 and 2s, which as previously indicated are in the same planes as passageways 26 and 28, respectively. They are also displaced angularly a distance of about 104 degrees.
- the auxiliary passageway 65 which constitutes a bypass-preventing extinction of the flames when the valve is operated between the full on and simmer positions, and the low adjustment passageway 39 are also displaced relative to the main passageways in the gas valve, as will be perhaps more apparent when reference is had to Figs. 3A to 6A in the following description. of the operation of the valve.
- the auxiliary passageway 65, 66 is located angularly between the first and second radialpassageways 22 and 24, somewhat nearer the first, and its axis is displaced axially about one-sixteenth inch from the axis of the passageway 22 and three-sixteenths inch from passageway 24.
- the axis of the inlet portion 32 of further passageway 30 is angularly displaced about 150 degrees from the first passageway 22 and axially displaced about one-quarter inch from theaxis of the second passageway 24.
- the axial location of the low adjustment passageway 30, in accordance withanother important feature of the invention, is such that it does register only with the inletpassageway 26 and never with the outlet passageway 28. Consequently, there is no undesired flow of gas to passageway 28 in any position of the valve.
- the closest approach of passageways 28 and 30 is about one-sixteenth inch so that an adequate gas seal is provided.
- Thedouble. gas valve is constructed and arranged to provide an audible indication when the valveis moved. to its simmer position, to which position it is usually turned for lighting purposes.
- the valve is shown in the center of this position in Figs. 4 and 4A.
- the inlet port 26 intersects the passageway 24 to the greatest extent and gas is supplied to .the simmer section of the burner through the axial passageway l8 in the valve plug and passageway 18.
- the gas fiow to the simmer section is determined by the size of the orifice in the hood 84.
- Adjust-1 ment of the flow of gas to the simmersection alone may be efiected by movement of the valve plugto vary the extent of registry between the passageways 24 and 2B.
- the valve may beoperated from the simmer position to the full on position by further counter clockwise movement of the valve plug as viewed in Figs. 3A to 6A.
- the full on position is shown in Figs. 5 and 5A from which it will be noted that the inlet passageway is fully aligned with the passageway 22 and that the passageway 24qis aligned with the outlet passageway 28 which communicates with the main burner outlet passageway 80.
- the axial passageway l8 of the valve plug remains. in communication with the simmerburner section through outlet passageway 18. In this position the passageways 30 and 65 are closed.
- a turn down range of operation in which manually regulatable quantities of gas are supplied to both the main and simmer sections is located between the full on and simmer only sections.
- the extent of registry between the passageways 22 and 26 and the auxiliary passageway 65, 86 begins to register with the inlet passageway and is the only passageway registering with the inlet passageway fora time before the simmer only position is reached, at which time passageway 24 registers with the inlet passageway 26.
- the passageway 65 thus supplies a small quantity of gas to both the main and simmersections first and then to the simmer section only as the simmer only position is reached.
- the quantity of gas supplied to the simmer burner section in the low simmerposition may be adjusted readily by moving the handle 68 and turning the secondary valve member 46 to control the effective size of the opening or orifice defined by the openings 52 and in the insert 44 and valve member 46, respectively.

The present invention relates to gas valves and particularly to gas valves for use with gas burners having I two burner sections. Burners of this character are commonly called double burners and thetwo burner sections are called the main and simmer burner sections.
Gas valves for double gas burners have heretofore been constructed and arranged to supply gas selectively to the two burner sections and also in selected quantities. For instance in a known type of valve, such as that disclosed in the Philip S. Harper Patent No. 2,299,624, granted October 20, 1942, the valve is operable into distinct operating positions, as follows:' (1) a full I on position, wherein gas is supplied to both the burner sections at maximum rates determined is toprovide anew and improved gas valve for a double gas burner, i. e., a new and improved double gas valve.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved double valve including asimplified arrangement enabling the supply of a predetermined and adjustable small quantityof gas to the simmer burner section, and more particularly, wherein said means includes an adjustment accessible through a hollow valve stem.
. A further object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved double valve which does not require any auxiliary drillings in the valve body, which in the past have been of a complicated and devious angular nature.
, A further object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved double gas valve operable into the various positions referred to heretofore with a minimum rotation of the valve plug and yethaving adequate sealing surfaces insuring against leakage of gas. 1 .A furtherobject ofthe present invention is to, provide a new and improved double gas valve of the character set forth above in which the main gas passageways in the valve body and plug can be drilled radially and simultaneously, thereby to insure accurate alignment of the passages in the full on position of the valve and also to acter It.
decrease the length of the arc subtended by the passageways in both the valve body and plug, thereby to provide good seals without increasing the overall length of the valve plug. a
A further object of the present invention is to provide a new and improved double gas valve including stem adjustment means for regulating the quantity of gas passed in the low simmer position which is so constructed and arranged that gas does not escape through it in a reverse direction.
Other objects and advantages of the present. invention will become apparent from the ensuing description of a preferred embodiment of the gas valve, in the course of which reference is had to the accompanying drawings, in which:

Figs. 3A, 4A, 5A and 6A are flat developments of the valve body and valve plug surfaces in the positions corresponding to those in which these are shown in Figs. 3, 4,- 5 and 6. By flat developments are meant the surfaces developed by rolling the conical surfaces of the valve chamber and plug upon a plane surface. The plug surface is shaded and the body surface is unshaded.
Referring first more particularly to Figs. 1' and 2, the double gas valve of the present inven-' tion is indicated as a whole by reference char- It comprises a valve body l2 having a chamber with a conical inner surface [4 and within which is mounted a rotatable control mem-. ber illustrated as the tapered or conical plug 16.
The plug is provided with an axial passageway l8 providing communication between the interior;
of the valve plug and the valve chamber 20, which includes the earlier referred to conical surface [4. The plug is provided also with first and second main passageways 22 and 24, which, in accordance with one of the important features of the present invention, are truly radial relative to the axis of the plug and the chamber 20 and which are readily drilled with the plug within the valve body when the plug is in its full on position'so that they register exactly with the gas inlet and outlet passageways 2B and 28, respectively, in the valve body, as best illustrated in Fig. 5.
The radial disposition not only enables the passageways to b drilled readily but the arrangement also reduces to a minimum th length of the arc at the intersections of the passageways with the inner surface M of the chamber 29 and the outer surface of the plug 16. This is an important factor in that the passagewayscan be spaced closer together both axially aswell as radially, thereby to decrease the angular movement of the. plug required to move it between its various positions as well as decreasing the overall length of the plug.
The valve plug, in accordance with another feature of the present invention, is provided with further passageway 30 through which a small and adjustable quantity of gas is supplied to the simmer burner section only in the low simmer position of the valve. The passageway has an enlarged radial portion 32 near the outer surface of the plug and an axially inclined inner portion 34 leading to the hollow 36 of the valve stem 33. The inner portion 34 of the auxiliary passageway communicates with an annular passageway 58 defined by the stem and an annular recess 42 in a stem adjustment auxiliary valve providing insert 44 which may take various forms and which is illustrated as being of the character disclosed and claimed in the copending application of Vincent 0. Peterson, Serial No. 600,795, filed June 21, 1945 (now Patent No. 2,590,569, granted March 25, 1952).
The stem adjustment insert includes a rotatably adjustable secondary valve member at having a slot 48 at its outer end whereby it is readily accessible for adjustment through the hollow of the stem by a suitable instrument such as a small screw driver. When the valve member at is rotated the quantity of gas flowing to the central axial passageway I 8 in the valve plug, and thus to the simmer section of the burner, is regulated by control of the effective size of an orifice including an aperture 52 in the insert 44 and a cooperating passageway 54 communicating with the interior of the valve plug through an axial passageway 58 at the inner end of the auxiliary valve 4'6.
The stemadjustment means is provided with a seal 58 at its outer end preventing escape of gas therethrough. The seal is comprised of an annular groove 60 in the valve member 36, which is filled with lubricant and an annular indentation 62 in the thin walled outer portion 6-! of the insert 44. The stem adjustment means is preferably preassembled in the form in which it is shown and then inserted into the enlarged portion 36A of the hollow 36 of the stem.
"The valve plug'includes an auxiliary passagewayfiihaving an enlarged outer end 66, for a purpose to be described hereinafter.
' The valve plug is rotatable by a handle 68 which is secured to the hollow valv stem 38 in suitable manner. The latter is preferably provided with a fiat side 10, giving the valve stem 2. generally D-shaped configuration fitting into an opening of similar configuration in the valve handle, whereby the two are readily assembled in operative relation with each other.
Gas is supplied to the valve through the inlet passageway 28, which is formed in an externally threaded transverse boss 12 adapted for attachment to the usual gas supply manifold (not shown). The valve body is also provided with a pair of longitudinally extending spaced apart exteriorly threaded'bosses 14 and 16, which are drilled to form gas outlet passageways l8 and 86 through which gas is supplied to the simmer and main burner sections, respectively, of a double gas burner. Passageway l8 communicates directly .with chamber 20 and the aXial passageway 58 in the valve plug, whereas passageway communicates with the previously referred to outlet passageway 28. The latter is, as already indicated, radial, and after drilling it is closed by a plug 82. Adjustably mounted hoods 84 and 86, provided with orifices and cooperating with fixed needle valves secured to the valve body (not shown, but which may be of conventional construction) are secured to the outer ends of bosses l4 and is to provide nozzles through which gas is supplied to the burners at suitable velocities when the valve is in its full on position.
The valve may have and is shown as including a position determining and indicating mechanism Eli! which includes a plate 92 having a limited extent of angular movement with respect to the valve stem, a plate '94 secured to the valve body by the spaced apart screws 96, and a spring 93 bearing against the outer end of the valve plug and against the plate 92, thereby forcing the latter against the stationary plate 94. The spring thus holds the valve plug tightly in place and also biases the plate 92 against the plate 9%, thereby to provide the necessary movement of the latter for audibly indicating certain positions of the valve. The valve body is also provided with an axially extending portion I00 providing stop surfaces against which a part of the plate 92 moves to determine the closed and open positions of the valve. Only the full on stop surface 602 may be seen in the drawings and it is shown only in Fig. 1. The particular form of the position indicating and determining mechanism forms no part of the present invention and it may be of the character disclosed and claimed in the Turner et a1. Patent No. 2,299,666, gra'ntedOctober 20, 1942.
In order to provide a double gas valve capable of'being operated into the many positions required for adequate control of double gas burners with a minimum of angular movement and hav ing a minimum length and yet having the requisite valve plug sealing surfaces, certain of the passageways are displaced axially as well as angularly. For instance, the inlet and outlet passageways 26 and 28 are axially displaced (about one-eighth inch) as are the passageways 22 and 2s, which as previously indicated are in the same planes as passageways 26 and 28, respectively. They are also displaced angularly a distance of about 104 degrees. The auxiliary passageway 65, which constitutes a bypass-preventing extinction of the flames when the valve is operated between the full on and simmer positions, and the low adjustment passageway 39 are also displaced relative to the main passageways in the gas valve, as will be perhaps more apparent when reference is had to Figs. 3A to 6A in the following description. of the operation of the valve. The auxiliary passageway 65, 66 is located angularly between the first and second radialpassageways 22 and 24, somewhat nearer the first, and its axis is displaced axially about one-sixteenth inch from the axis of the passageway 22 and three-sixteenths inch from passageway 24. The axis of the inlet portion 32 of further passageway 30 is angularly displaced about 150 degrees from the first passageway 22 and axially displaced about one-quarter inch from theaxis of the second passageway 24.
The axial location of the low adjustment passageway 30, in accordance withanother important feature of the invention, is such that it does register only with the inletpassageway 26 and never with the outlet passageway 28. Consequently, there is no undesired flow of gas to passageway 28 in any position of the valve. The closest approach of passageways 28 and 30 is about one-sixteenth inch so that an adequate gas seal is provided.
, In the accompanying descriptionof the operation of the valve as a whole, reference will be had particularlyto Figs. 3 to 6 and 3A to 6A, both inclusive. v
Infthe off position of the valve illustrated in Figs; 3 and 3A the inlet passageway 26 is closed by the imperforate part of the valve plug l6. In this position of the valve, the valve handle extends downwardly, the fiat side 10 of the valve stem is at the bottom and the handle can be turned only in a counterclockwise direction as viewed from the right of Fig. 1, or in a clockwise direction as viewed in Figs. 3 to 6, also the solid line elements of Figs. 3A to 6A, inclusive, which represent the valve plug can only be moved counterclockwise as viewedin the latter figures.
Thedouble. gas valve is constructed and arranged to provide an audible indication when the valveis moved. to its simmer position, to which position it is usually turned for lighting purposes.
The valve is shown in the center of this position in Figs. 4 and 4A. In this position the inlet port 26 intersects the passageway 24 to the greatest extent and gas is supplied to .the simmer section of the burner through the axial passageway l8 in the valve plug and passageway 18. At this time the gas fiow to the simmer section is determined by the size of the orifice in the hood 84. Adjust-1 ment of the flow of gas to the simmersection alone may be efiected by movement of the valve plugto vary the extent of registry between the passageways 24 and 2B.
The valve may beoperated from the simmer position to the full on position by further counter clockwise movement of the valve plug as viewed in Figs. 3A to 6A. The full on position is shown in Figs. 5 and 5A from which it will be noted that the inlet passageway is fully aligned with the passageway 22 and that the passageway 24qis aligned with the outlet passageway 28 which communicates with the main burner outlet passageway 80. The axial passageway l8 of the valve plug remains. in communication with the simmerburner section through outlet passageway 18. In this position the passageways 30 and 65 are closed. a
A turn down range of operation in which manually regulatable quantities of gas are supplied to both the main and simmer sections is located between the full on and simmer only sections. For instance, in movement of the valve from its full on to its simmer-only position, the extent of registry between the passageways 22 and 26 and the auxiliary passageway 65, 86 begins to register with the inlet passageway and is the only passageway registering with the inlet passageway fora time before the simmer only position is reached, at which time passageway 24 registers with the inlet passageway 26. The passageway 65 thus supplies a small quantity of gas to both the main and simmersections first and then to the simmer section only as the simmer only position is reached. It thus prevents the extinction of the flames and especially of the flame to the simmer burner section when the valve is operated from its full on to its simmer position. In order too-perate the valve to the low simme position, the valve is moved clockwise as viewed in Figs. 3A to 6A'from the-simmer position to bring the auxiliary passageway 30 into registry with the inlet passageway 26. Passageway 30 begins to register with the inlet passageway before the passageway 24 moves out of registrywith the inlet passageway sothat both supply gas to the simmer section for a time and finally gas is sup-- plied to the simmer section only through theauxiliarypassageway 32, 34, as best illustrated'in Fig. 6A. i
The quantity of gas supplied to the simmer burner section in the low simmerposition may be adjusted readily by moving the handle 68 and turning the secondary valve member 46 to control the effective size of the opening or orifice defined by the openings 52 and in the insert 44 and valve member 46, respectively. a 4 From the foregoingdetailed description of the construction and operation of the double gas valve of the present invention, it may be noted that the valve may be constructed simply and economically and that it may be operated simply and, furthermore, the quantity of gas supplied to the simmer burner section may be regulated with a great degree of nicety by the stem adjustment means. Only a limited angular extent of movement is necessary to move the valve betweenits many positions, this movement being only about 195 degrees. The staggering of the ports in different axial planes also not only reduces the extent of angular movement but it also keeps down the overall length of the valve plugand, therefore, of the valve as a whole. Also, the nonregis-' trability of the stem adjustment passagewayand passageway 28 prevents undesired flow of gas to the main burner section. a
While the invention has been described in con- 'nection with the specific details of one embodiment, it should be understood that thesev details between 24an'd is reduced, thereby to reduce are intended to be illustrative and not limitative of the invention except in so far as set forth in the accompanying claims. a I j What I claim as new and desire to secure by United States Letters Patent is: I
