Patent number: 6427924Abstract: A combustion type heater of this invention includes fuel distribution means 11 for distributing a fuel to the whole surface of a wick 10, disposed upstream of the wick in a fuel passage. The fuel distribution means comprises fuel distribution grooves 15 and a fuel dispersion plate 16 having a large number of holes bored therein. The fuel distribution means can quickly supply the fuel to the whole surface of the wick. To shorten the heating time of the wick, the heater of the present invention uses a wick heating glow plug 14b outside an ignition glow plug 14a, or a planar heater 18, for heating the wick.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2001Date of Patent: August 6, 2002Assignees: Denso Corporation, Nippon Soken, Inc.Inventors: Masashi Takagi, Masakazu Ozaki, Hirohito Matsui, Sadahisa Onimaru, Yuichi Sakajo, Toshio Morikawa, Kouji Mori

Patent number: 5749713Abstract: A liquid fuel burner apparatus which comprises a fuel distributing member of a generally conical configuration mounted within a housing, along with means for feeding a liquid fuel to an upper end of the fuel distributing member to allow the liquid fuel to form a film on the outer surface. A vaporizing aperture is formed in the outer surface and a gas supply conduit supplied with a pressurized gaseous material to atomize the fuel for ignition. The unburned fuel is then collected and recycled back to the burner. The apparatus permits the burning of material which may contain small particles which would otherwise clog the nozzle of a conventional apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 1996Date of Patent: May 12, 1998Inventor: Albert Heylbroeck

Patent number: 5707226Abstract: Burner for a gaseous fuel, provided with separate supply lines for fuel and oxidizing gas, the oxidizing gas being tangentially fed into a cylindrical swirl chamber, which is connected to a burner bowl through a mixing channel, the fuel being radially supplied at the connection of the swirl chamber to the mixing channel. The burner is optionally provided with an integrated heat exchanger. A composite burner system is disclosed, made-up of burners as described above and optionally provided with a plate which isolates the burners from the surrounding area and which indirectly heats the surrounding area.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 1996Date of Patent: January 13, 1998Assignee: N.V. Nederlandse GasunieInventor: Arnold N. Bogtstra

Patent number: 5449288Abstract: An aspirated wick atomizer nozzle device having a nozzle body and a screen wire wick sandwiched between the an outlet surface of the nozzle body and the inside surface of a nozzle cap. A liquid entering the nozzle body through a fuel inlet passes by a wicking action of the screen wire wick to a fuel and air exit port where it is entrained and atomized by a gas exiting the nozzle body through an air outlet orifice.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 1994Date of Patent: September 12, 1995Assignee: Hi-Z Technology, Inc.Inventor: John C. Bass

Patent number: 4373905Abstract: Oil heater for burning of waste oil or other like petroleum liquids through vaporization of the fuel resulting in total fuel burn and maximum BTU. Combustion air enters the center of a combustion chamber enclosure through a combustion air wand resulting in air flow in all directions. The wand includes a plurality of spaced holes in a closed annular air channel allowing for escape of air to the combustion chamber and a diffuser plate circumferentially affixed to the wand including a plurality of spaced holes in the diffuser plate for spreading and mixing resultant vapors and gases for burning at the level of the wand. A submerged pump in a fuel storage tank provides for even fuel flow to a center point above the air wand in addition to even air flow by a blower. A vaporizer pan in the bottom of the chamber provides for boiling of the fuel with its resulting vaporization and total burn of residue and ash.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 1980Date of Patent: February 15, 1983Inventor: Allen J. Hettich

Patent number: 4368032Abstract: A liquid fuel combustion apparatus comprises a combustion cylinder, a fuel reservoir, a housing, a blower and an electrical ignition heater. The reservoir is disposed inside the cylinder to store a liquid fuel supplied from outside of the cylinder. The housing is disposed outside the cylinder to create a space therebetween and has an end wall opposite to an end wall of the cylinder. The blower is disposed outside, and in a spaced apart relation to, the housing and supply air to the space. The heater is supported by the end walls and ignite liquid fuel stored in the reservoir.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 1980Date of Patent: January 11, 1983Assignee: Tokyo Shibaura Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Hiroyuki Araya, Toshihiko Saito, Katsuyoshi Kumazawa, Moriyoshi Sakamoto, Mitoshi Koyama
