  • Publication number: 20220170631
    Abstract: A combustion membrane (14, 14?) for a gas burner (2) forms a multilayer panel (22) including a gas-permeable diffuser layer (24) of a porous or fibrous solid material other than metal sheet, the diffuser layer (24) forming a combustion surface (25) facing an outer side (17), a support layer (26) formed by a metal sheet (32), arranged on an inner side (23) with respect to the diffuser layer (24), opposite to the combustion surface (25), and connected to the diffuser layer. The metal sheet has a pattern (27) of passage openings (28), a local deviating layer (29), bordering the support layer (26). Diverter flaps (30) bent transversely out of the support layer (26) and delimited by cutting or tearing edges (42) of the support layer metal sheet (32), form guide surfaces (31) oblique to a direction (40) orthogonal to an extension plane (41) of the multilayer panel (22).

  • Patent number: 9982887
    Abstract: A burner comprises a tubular diffuser wall and an inlet passage a flow of a mixture of gas within the diffuser wall, as well as a first diaphragm arranged in the inlet passage, said diaphragm forming a plurality of through openings and a plurality of guide surfaces delimiting the through openings on a radially outer side thereof so that, when introducing the mixture, said guide surfaces and said through openings direct the mixture towards the inside of the burner and in a radial direction towards the longitudinal axis.

  • Publication number: 20160238243
    Abstract: A gas burner for a heater comprises a planar metal frame portion with an elongated opening defined by two longitudinal edges and by two transversal end edges, as well as a combustion membrane in the form of a tridimensional shell, connected to the frame portion along the longitudinal and transversal edges, wherein the combustion membrane has a diffuser layer, which forms an outer combustion surface made of a perforated metal sheet, and which extends between the two longitudinal edges with a single curvature out of the plane of the frame portion, and two closure portions made of metal sheet extending from the transversal edges out of the plane of the frame portion and which close end areas between the diffuser layer and the transversal edges of the frame portion.
