  • Publication number: 20150233575
    Abstract: A burner includes a tube, which includes a pre-mixing chamber that generates an air-fuel mixture containing fuel and a combustion chamber that burns the fuel. A first pipe supplies fuel, which is heated by an electric heater to the pre-mixing chamber. A second pipe includes a heat exchange unit that converts combustion heat of the fuel to vaporization heat of the fuel and supplies fuel heated by the heat exchange unit to the pre-mixing chamber. The second pipe is branched from the first pipe at a branched point, and the electric heater and the heat exchange unit are connected in parallel to the pre-mixing chamber.

  • Publication number: 20150204223
    Abstract: A burner includes a tubular inner tube portion and a tubular outer tube portion. The inner tube portion mixes fuel with air. The outer tube portion surrounds the inner tube portion. A peripheral wall of the inner tube portion has a gaseous mixture outflow hole. The gaseous mixture outflow hole causes a clearance between an inner peripheral surface of the outer tube portion and an outer peripheral surface of the inner tube portion to communicate with an interior of the inner tube portion. A peripheral wall of the outer tube portion has an air supplying hole. The air supplying hole further supplies air to the clearance.

  • Publication number: 20150152761
    Abstract: A burner for exhaust gas purification devices, comprising a base section, a first pipe section, and a second pipe section. The first pipe section has abase end section, a tip section, a combustion chamber, and a discharge port from which combusted gas is discharged. The base end section and the tip section are fixed to the base section. The second pipe section has a base end section and a tip section, and said base end and tip sections are fixed to the base section. The first pipe section also comprises an expansion/contraction section capable of expanding and contracting in a direction parallel to the central axis. The first pipe section and the second pipe section mutually overlap in the radial direction so as to form a multilayer tube structure.

  • Publication number: 20150082777
    Abstract: This burner is disposed at the upstream side of a DPF and raises the temperature of exhaust by combusting an air-fuel mixture of air and fuel in a combustion region within a flame holder. The burner is provided with: an upstream-side cover enclosing the peripheral wall of the flame holder; and a partition wall that partitions the gap between the flame holder and the upstream-side cover into a prior-stage exhaust chamber and a latter-state exhaust chamber. An exhaust tube through which exhaust from an engine flows is connected to the upstream-side cover; a through hole that interconnects the prior-stage exhaust chamber and the latter-stage exhaust chamber is formed at the partition wall; exhaust flows in from the exhaust tube at the prior-stage exhaust chamber; and exhaust flows in from the prior-stage exhaust chamber through the through hole to the latter-stage exhaust chamber.

  • Publication number: 20140318107
    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.

  • Publication number: 20140311458
    Abstract: An engine exhaust purification device includes a filter, a burner, and a control unit. The filter is arranged in an engine exhaust pipe. The burner burns fuel injected from a fuel injection nozzle and heats exhaust to increase the temperature of the filter at an upstream side of the filter in the exhaust pipe. A period including a single fuel injection period and a single injection stop period is set as a single injection cycle. The fuel injection period is a period injecting fuel a number of times at a predetermined frequency. The injection stop period is a variable period that stops fuel injection. The control unit controls the fuel injection nozzle so that the fuel injection nozzle injects the fuel according to the injection cycle. The control unit is configured to lengthen the injection stop period as the temperature of the filter increases.

  • Publication number: 20120322012
    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.
