  • Heater, in particular an auxiliary heater for vehicles
    Patent number: 4632306
    Abstract: A heater with a burner which is supplied with liquid fuel by a metering pump and a fuel supply line, is provided with a throttle in the fuel supply line between the metering pump and the burner. The throttle is preferably formed by a long throttle element, in particular a wire, which is placed and inserted into a fuel line connector that is rigidly connected to the burner. The throttle which is formed in this way smooths out the volume flow of fuel to the burner and reduces the dwell time of the fuel, especially in the fuel line connector, in order to prevent gas evolution and the associated formation of vapor bubbles.
