  • Sealed gas burner
    Patent number: 6537065
    Abstract: A burner for a cooking range includes a burner base disposed on the range top, a burner body extending upwardly through aligned openings in the range top and the burner base to a threaded rim, a venturi having a threaded annular flange secured to the threaded rim of the burner body and a venturi tube depending from the flange through the burner body to a lower end. The burner base is sandwiched between the annular flange of the venturi and the range top and is thereby mounted to the range top by means of the venturi. A gas orifice is disposed beneath the bottom end of the venturi tube for ejecting gas upwardly into the venturi tube and a ported burner ring and burner cap rest on the burner base overlying the venturi tube. The burner is easily assembled and disassembled from the top without special tools and without raising or removing the range top. Components of the burner may be individually removed from the top of the range for maintenance or replacement.
