Publication number: 20240310038Abstract: A dark radiator includes a first burner, a fan and a radiant tube. The first burner is connected to a fuel gas supply, the fan is designed to supply the first burner with combustion air and the first burner is designed to output a flame into the radiant tube. The fuel gas supply is connected to a hydrogen source as a fuel gas source and a secondary burner is connected downstream in the radiant tube spaced apart from the first burner functioning as the primary burner in the flame direction. The fuel gas supply thereof is connected to a hydrogen source as a fuel gas source and the exhaust gas flow of the upstream primary burner is supplied to the secondary burner as combustion air.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2022Publication date: September 19, 2024Applicant: Schwank GmbHInventors: Edgar KREIS, Alexander GENZEL, Torsten STOHLER, Thomas RENNER

Patent number: 8475163Abstract: This invention relates to a heating device consisting of at least one burner for the combustion especially of a gaseous fuel, at least one radiant tube connecting to the burner, at least one fan generating a negative pressure or an excess pressure in the radiant tube, and at least one exhaust gas recirculation system with at least one exhaust gas recirculation passage through which an exhaust gas produced during the combustion of the primary fuel can be recirculated from the radiant tube to a transition zone from the burner into the radiant tube. In order to further develop a heating device of this type as well as a method for its operation the burner is adapted for being operated in at least two power stages and the exhaust gas recirculation system is controlled in dependence of the power stages of the burner in such a way that the volume flow of the recirculated exhaust gas is reduced with an increasing power stage of the burner.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2006Date of Patent: July 2, 2013Assignee: Schwank GmbHInventors: Bernd H. Schwank, Konrad Weber

Patent number: 5139415Abstract: The invention relates to a radiation heater for air/gas admixtures which includes a double-wall housing of a generally trapezoidal transverse cross-section defined by a top wall and downwardly convering side walls. The housing includes a burner plate between a mixing chamber and a radiation grid, and the mixing chamber is fed the air/fuel admixture from an injector nozzle, a mixing tube, a preheated intermediate chamber, and a transition zone or chamber. The injector nozzle and the mixing tube are located at the lower edge of the housing side wall(s) to thereby provide an intermediate chamber extending essentially the length of the side wall(s) along the exterior of which the hot waste gases flow or brush to preheat the fresh admixture of air and fuel in the intermediate chamber thereby effecting reliable operation at low gas pressures and low manufacturing and repair costs.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 1990Date of Patent: August 18, 1992Assignee: Schwank GmbHInventor: Bernd H.

Patent number: 4083355Abstract: The range has one or more burners. Above these is arranged a glass-ceramic plate. Each burner has a perforate ceramic element that is spaced from the plate by a distance just sufficient to permit the combustion gas to travel through this space. A thermal securing arrangement detects the temperature of the plate, and an adjusting arrangement permits adjusting of the burners, and therefore of the plate, to a plurality of different temperature levels.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 1975Date of Patent: April 11, 1978Assignee: Schwank GmbHInventor: Bernd Schwank
