Abstract: In a combustion apparatus that includes a burner constituted by a burner body, an inside of which an air-fuel mixture is supplied to and one surface of which is made into an open surface, and a combustion plate covering the open surface of the burner body, and a combustion box enclosing a combustion space of the air-fuel mixture ejecting from the combustion plate, an offset part that is positioned at a portion which is away from the swelling part in an inflow direction of the air-fuel mixture to the inner chamber and does not oppose to a tip part(s) of the ignition electrode(s) through the combustion plate is provided with the opposite wall of the burner body and the offset part offsets to a combustion-plate side so that a distance between the offset part and the combustion plate becomes shorter than that between the combustion plate and a general part of the opposite wall except the swelling part and the offset part.

Abstract: In a combustion apparatus that includes a combustion plate having a burner frame with a shape of a picture frame, which covers an open surface of a burner body, and a frame flange part outwardly extending from a side plate part, which is sandwiched between a body flange part of the burner body and a box flange part of a combustion box, which is fastened to the body flange part, a projecting part(s) positioning the burner frame with respect to the combustion box, which comes into contact with, or comes close to and is disposed opposite to an inner surface of the combustion box is provided with the side plate part of the burner frame. Preferably, the projecting part(s) is provided at a portion away from an end of a side of an opening peripheral edge part of the side plate part to a side of the frame flange part.
