  • Patent number: 9719387
    Abstract: Injection nozzle 7 and electrode rods 8 and 9 (ignitor) are surrounded by double-cylinder flame stabilizer 10. Toroidal blocking plate 13 closes between inner and outer cylinders 11 and 12 of the stabilizer at its distal end whose proximal end is connected with line 15 for introducing combustion air 14 to between the cylinders. Inflow holes 16 are formed throughout the inner cylinder at its proximal end. Peripheral fins 17 are formed peripherally on the inner cylinder radially inwardly through cutting and bending-up at positions shifted from the inflow holes toward the distal end of the inner cylinder such that combustion air is introduced from circumferentially to form swirling flow inside the inner cylinder. End fins 18 are formed on the blocking plate in fuel injection direction through cutting and bending-up such that combustion air is discharged circumferentially to form swirling flow around flame 21.

  • Publication number: 20170051710
    Abstract: A burner (20) includes a combustion unit (21), a fuel supply unit (22), a vaporizer (30), an air supply unit (45), and a control unit (50). The fuel supply unit (22) supplies fuel to the combustion unit (21). The vaporizer (30) uses an electric heater (32) to heat and vaporize fuel supplied from the fuel supply unit (22) to the combustion unit (21). The air supply unit (45) supplies air to the vaporizer (30). The control unit (50) controls the supply of fuel from the fuel supply unit (22), the supply of electrical power to the electric heater (32), and the supply of air from the air supply unit (45). The control unit (50) causes the air supply unit (45) to supply air while the supply of fuel from the fuel supply unit (22) is stopped. The control unit (50) supplies electrical power to the electric heater (32) and controls the temperature of the electric heater (32) so as to reach a combustible temperature at which fuel can combust.

  • Patent number: 9476333
    Abstract: A burner for an exhaust purifying device includes a tube, an air supply port for supplying air for combustion into the tube, a fuel supply port for supplying fuel into the tube, and an ignition portion. The tube includes a premixing chamber for mixing air for combustion and fuel to generate a pre-mixed air-fuel mixture, a combustion chamber for combusting the pre-mixed air-fuel mixture to generate post-combustion gas, and a discharge port for discharging the post-combustion gas. The ignition portion ignites the pre-mixed air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber. The tube further includes a swirling flow generation unit arranged upstream of the premixing chamber for generating a swirling flow of which the center direction corresponds to a fuel injection direction and a diffusion unit arranged downstream of the swirling flow generation unit in the premixing chamber for diffusing the fuel incorporated in the swirling flow.
