  • Patent number: 6793487
    Abstract: A burner, in particular, for a motor vehicle supplementary or parking heater, for the burning of liquid fuel, in the presence of combustion air, has a combustion chamber (10), with a jet for the atomization of liquid fuel, arranged before said chamber. The jet has a Venturi tube (11) at the largest diameter end of the diffuser section thereof, opening into the combustion chamber (10), and the liquid fuel is introduced into the Venturi region which is at a low pressure when compared with the upstream end of the diffuser section (12), and through the inlet section (13) of which the air is pumped.

  • Publication number: 20030022123
    Abstract: The invention relates to an atomizing burner, especially for use in an automobile auxiliary heating system, comprising an atomizing nozzle (2) for processing the fuel, an ignition device (29) and a combustion chamber (8). An iar conduction device (10, 12, 14) is connected upstream of a nozzle holder (3) of the atomizing nozzle (2) in order to achieve finer atomization of the fuel. Said air conduction device subjects the combustion air streaming into the atomizing nozzle (2) to a swirl.

  • Patent number: 5727730
    Abstract: The invention relates to an air heating device with a hot air fan located in a housing to deliver hot air from an air inlet opening which is located on the face side via a heat exchanger to a hot air exit opening located on the opposite face.The object of the invention is to devise an air heating device which can always intake a sufficient amount of hot air regardless of its installation position without additional parts.This object is achieved by the fact that the housing near the face air inlet opening on its outside periphery on at least one side has additional air inlet openings.
