  • Patent number: 11391459
    Abstract: A regulating valve with at least one gas outlet conduit and a housing having at least one outlet hole in fluid communication with the outlet conduit; a rotating disc arranged in the housing; a spring axially retaining the rotating disc in the housing; and sealing means surrounding the at least one outlet hole. The sealing means includes a gasket having a closure member associated with each outlet hole, surrounding the same, and at least one attachment arm attached to the at least one closure member. The attachment arm including at least one protuberance, with the rotating disc being supported on the closure members and on the protuberances when it presses on the gasket.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10935250
    Abstract: According to one embodiment a gas cooking appliance is provided that includes at least one burner and a manual regulating valve for each burner. The manual regulating valve includes a manual actuator movable in a range of actuation (A) to vary a gas flow rate (Q) therethrough. At least one electromagnetic valve fluidly communicates the manual regulating valve and the burner. A control unit controls the electromagnetic valve. At least one temperature sensor is electrically connected to the control unit to measure a temperature related to a cooking process. A cooking program selector is electrically connected to the control unit and mechanically coupled to the manual actuator, such that each cooking program is associated with a gas flow rate, the program selector including at least one cooking program with temperature regulation.

  • Patent number: 5839426
    Abstract: A gas distribution box for the top burners of a stove includes a sealed gas distribution conduit in the form of a channel formed between a base plate and a cover plate. Inside the palates are elements which control the flow of gas to each burner. Only the operating shafts and a common gas inlet and individual outlets connectors protrude from the plates. The regulators for gas flow to each burner are a valve with an operating shaft and a bypass screw. The valves include two superposed flat discs, one fixed and the other rotary, fitted between the base and the cover. A pusher cooperates with the operating shaft.
