Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application relates to the field of water heater, in particular relates to a gas premix burner and a gas water heater.

BACKGROUND TECHNOLOGY

Premix combustion refers to mixing gas and air in a premix chamber and burning the mixed gas on a burner. The structural design of the burner has a great influence to the combustion situation of the mixed gas. The existing burners, such as an Iron-chrome-aluminum wire mesh burner, are burners with the surface of the support element covered by a wire mesh made of a special material. The flames attach to the surface of the wire mesh, which has a high porosity, good flame stability, a large turndown ratio and a good level of pollutant emission. However, due to the particularity of the wire mesh, the manufacturing technique thereof is complex and the cost thereof is high.

In order to reduce the manufacturing difficulty, some plate type burners produced by simple manufacturing techniques have been developed. For example, the Chinese patent No. 201320092745, entitled “Full premix burner”, and the Chinese patent No. 201310135997, entitled “Positive-pressure-injecting type fully-premixed combustion heating device”, have both proposed a premix burner using a stainless steel plate or a plate with a certain curvature as the substrate. The fire holes thereof are a combination of circular or rectangular holes, the manufacturing thereof is simple, and the cost is low. However, the deficiency thereof lies in that the fire hole flame stability of the simplex circular or rectangular holes is poor. In a case where the gas supply flow is unstable, a flame lift phenomenon is likely to occur, which may further cause resonance of the burner, and thereby may result in damages to the components related to the burner. Furthermore, referring to the patent application No. 201410313365.X, entitled “Gas pre-mixing burner”, it has proposed to provide a main combustion fire hole on a combustion platform higher than the substrate, and expects to achieve the effect of stabilizing the flame through the intersecting between the auxiliary flame of the auxiliary combustion fire hole and the main flame of the main combustion fire hole. However, in this patent application, the main combustion fire hole is higher than the auxiliary combustion fire hole, thus, for small load conditions, a situation may occur where the length of the auxiliary flame is not enough to well intersect the main flame, and at this point the stability of the flame is relatively poor.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In order to enable the persons skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, clear and comprehensive description will be made to the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be made in the following in combination with the figures in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the embodiments described herein are only part of, rather than all of, the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary skilled persons in the field without paying creative efforts should pertain to the extent of protection of the present application.

Please refer to FIG. 1 which shows a gas premix burner 10 provided by one embodiment of the present application. The gas premix burner 10 has a combustion direction F. In use, the gas premix burner 10 can be matched and connected with a premix chamber that is disposed upstream the combustion direction F of the gas premix burner 10, such that air and gas mixed in the premix chamber can be burned after passing through the gas premix burner 10.

The gas premix burner 10 comprises: a burner substrate 11, and a main combustion hole 13 provided on the burner substrate 11; an auxiliary combustion hole 15 disposed downstream the main combustion hole 13 along the combustion direction F on the burner substrate 11; in a working state, the auxiliary flame of the auxiliary combustion hole 15 intersects the main flame of the main combustion hole 13.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2 together, the embodiments of the present application provide the auxiliary combustion hole 15 downstream the main combustion hole 13 along the combustion direction F, and allow the auxiliary flame to intersect the main flame, achieving the effect of suppressing flame lifting, and thereby making the auxiliary flame and the main flame more stable. After the gas premix burner 10 is mounted to the gas water heater, the gas premix burner 10 is mated with the premix chamber, the air and gas are mixed in the premix chamber and form a mixed gas, and the mixed gas can be burned after passing through the gas premix burner 10. In order to realize the intersecting between the auxiliary flame and the main flame, an airflow direction of the mixed gas after passing through the auxiliary combustion hole 15 intersects an airflow direction of the mixed gas through the main combustion hole 13. To be specific, the airflow through the main combustion hole 13 may be a first airflow, and the flame produced by the combustion of the first airflow may be the main flame; the airflow through the auxiliary combustion hole 15 may be a second airflow, and the flame produced by the combustion of the second airflow may be the auxiliary flame. A direction of the first airflow intersects a direction of the second airflow, so that the main flame intersects the auxiliary flame, namely, an opposed flame phenomenon is generated. In some cases, the gas flow velocity in the premix chamber increases suddenly, resulting in an increase in flow velocities of the first airflow and the second airflow. Under the effect of the opposed flames of the main flame and the auxiliary flame, the flow velocities of the first airflow and the second airflow can be reduced, so that the opposed flames formed after the main flame and the auxiliary flame intersect each other can have a suppression effect to the flame lift phenomenon, so as to achieve the effect of stabilizing the main flame and the auxiliary flame.

Referring to FIGS. 3, 4 and 5 together, the burner substrate 11 may be formed of a metal material. In this embodiment, it may be formed of aluminum or stainless steel materials. The burner substrate 11 has a substrate combustion surface 17 facing the main flame and a substrate air intake face 19 facing away from the main flame. The mixed gas can enter into a combustion state after passing through the burner substrate 11 from a substrate air intake face 19 to the substrate combustion surface 17. The substrate combustion surface 17 of the burner substrate 11 may be a flat face or a curved face. An edge of the substrate air intake face 19 may be provided with a mounting section 20 by which the gas premix burner 10 can be mated with the premix chamber when mounted to the premix chamber. The gas premix burner 10 can be mated with a single premix chamber individually. To be specific, the gas premix burner 10 may correspond to one premix chamber, such that the one premix chamber only needs to be mounted with one burner substrate 11, and thus the gas premix burner 10 can be more readily assembled with the premix chamber.

The burner substrate 11 may be provided with at least one combustion platform 21, on which the main combustion hole 13 is opened. The combustion platform 21 has a platform combustion surface 25 facing the main flame and a platform air intake face 27 facing away from the main flame. The platform combustion surface 25 is provided upstream the substrate combustion surface 17 along the combustion direction F of the premix chamber 10. In this embodiment, by setting the combustion platform 21 having the main combustion hole 13 on the burner substrate 11, the provision of the main combustion hole 21 on the burner substrate is realized.

In this embodiment, the platform combustion surface 25 is provided upstream the substrate combustion surface 17 along the combustion direction F, and such a setting can achieve the provision of the main combustion hole 13 upstream the auxiliary combustion hole 15 along the combustion direction F, namely, the auxiliary combustion hole 15 is located downstream the main combustion hole 13 along the combustion direction F. Since the scale of the main flame is larger than the auxiliary flame, the setting of the auxiliary combustion hole 15 downstream the main combustion hole 13 can facilitate the intersecting between the auxiliary flame and the main flame, thereby producing opposed flames. To be specific, the auxiliary combustion hole 15 may be provided on a position on the burner substrate 11 close to the combustion platform 21.

In one embodiment of the present application, the auxiliary combustion hole 15 is located between the platform combustion surface 25 and the substrate combustion surface 17. Since the platform combustion surface 25 is located upstream the substrate combustion surface 17 along the combustion direction F, there is a certain space between the platform combustion surface 25 and the substrate combustion surface 17. By setting the auxiliary combustion hole 15 between the platform combustion surface 25 and the substrate combustion surface 17, the auxiliary combustion hole 15 is closer to the main combustion hole 13 provided on the combustion platform 21, which helps the intersecting between the main flame and the auxiliary flame. Furthermore, the space between the platform combustion surface 25 and the substrate combustion surface 17 is downstream the platform combustion surface 25 along the combustion direction F. As introduced in the above, the auxiliary combustion hole 15 formed in the space can be oriented to the main combustion hole 13 or to the main flame, so as to further prompt the intersecting between the auxiliary flame and the main flame, thereby producing the effect of opposed flames. In this embodiment, the number of the auxiliary combustion hole 15 may be at least one. To be specific, for example: if the number of the auxiliary combustion hole 15 is one, it may be a bar shaped hole; and if the number of the auxiliary combustion holes 15 is two, then they may be provided oppositely on two sides of the combustion platform 21. Situations of greater numbers will not be discussed here.

In this embodiment, the gas premix burner 10 may also comprise a connecting section 29 for connecting the combustion platform 21 to the burner substrate 11. The connecting section 29 may constitute a side wall of the auxiliary combustion hole 15. When the number of the auxiliary combustion hole 15 is more than one, the connecting section 29 can space the adjacent auxiliary combustion holes 15. The connecting section 29 may also play a role of guiding the main flame, that is to say, in the combustion process the mixed gas flowing out from the main combustion hole 13 will move along the connecting section 29, allowing the main flame to be more concentrated, thereby reducing thermal losses.

In one embodiment of the present application, both of the main combustion hole 13 and the auxiliary combustion hole 15 are formed by processing the burner substrate 11. The main combustion hole 13 and the auxiliary combustion hole 15 may be formed on the burner substrate 11 by injection molding or punching molding. That is to say, the combustion platform 21 and the burner substrate 11 are formed integrally, allowing the gas premix burner 10 to be easily processed and manufactured. In this embodiment, preferably, both of the main combustion hole 13 and the auxiliary combustion hole 15 are formed by punching the burner substrate 11, and the auxiliary hole 15 is a crack formed by the punching.

Referring to FIG. 6, in one embodiment of the present application, the auxiliary combustion hole 15 is provided on the burner substrate 11, and a guiding nozzle 31 is provided on a part of the auxiliary combustion hole 15 close to the substrate combustion surface 17, so that the auxiliary combustion hole 15 towards the main combustion hole 13 or the main flame. In this embodiment, the auxiliary combustion hole 15 is oriented towards the main combustion hole 13 or the main flame by the guiding nozzle 31, thereby achieving to intersect the auxiliary flame with the main flame to produce opposed flames to suppress the flame lift phenomenon.

Of course, the burner substrate 11 is not limited to the above way of setting the main combustion hole 13 and the auxiliary combustion hole 15, but the main combustion hole 13 can also be set by directly opening a through hole on the burner substrate 11. Besides, it is also achievable to orient the auxiliary combustion hole 15 towards the main combustion hole 13 or the main flame to make the auxiliary flame intersects the main flame by setting the guiding nozzle protruding from the substrate combustion surface 17.

Referring to FIG. 1, in one embodiment of the present application, the shape of the main combustion hole 13 and/or the auxiliary combustion hole 15 is selected from a long strip shape, a circular shape, a polygon or an irregular shape. In this embodiment, specifically, the main combustion hole 13 is a long strip shaped hole of which a width is less than or equal to 3 mm; and/or the auxiliary combustion hole 15 is a long strip shaped hole of which a width less than or equal to 3 mm. The inventor has found through studies that the combustion effect of the gas premix burner 10 reaches the best when both of the main combustion hole 13 and the auxiliary combustion hole 15 are long strip shaped holes.

In one embodiment of the present application, the burner substrate 11 can be provided with a plurality of main combustion holes 13 and auxiliary combustion holes 15, wherein part of the main combustion holes 13 may be provided on one combustion platform 21 respectively, and part of the main combustion holes 13 may be directly opened on the burner substrate 11, and the auxiliary combustion holes 15 may also be set according to the descriptions in the above embodiments. Of course, an alternative would be to provide all the main combustion holes 13 on one combustion platform 21 respectively, and the auxiliary combustion holes 15 may be set according to the descriptions in the above embodiments.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 3 together, in one embodiment of the present application, the burner substrate is provided with a spacer 33 for spacing two adjacent combustion platforms, and a width of the spacer 33 is 25 mm or less. The inventor has found through experiments that the thermal load per unit area of the gas premix burner reduces faster when the width of the spacer 33 is greater than 25 mm.

In one embodiment of the present application, the spacer 33 is provided with a third combustion hole 35. In this embodiment, the spacer 33 of the burner substrate 11 may also be opened with a third combustion hole 35, of which a gas ejecting direction may be the same with a gas ejecting direction of the main combustion hole 13. An open area of the third combustion hole 35 may be smaller than an open area of the main combustion hole 13, such that a length of the flame of the third combustion hole 35 will be less than a length of the main flame. The combustion holes of three forms are not likely to cause resonances compared to the existing hole of a single form.

In one embodiment, the pore diameter of the third combustion hole 35 is less than 3 mm, the spacer 33 is provided with the third combustion holes 35 of at least two different pore diameters, and the third combustion holes 35 of different pore diameters are in a staggered arrangement relative to one another. By setting in this way, reasonable thermal power distributions can be obtained, so that the main combustion hole 13 and the auxiliary combustion hole 15 can cooperate with each other. To be specific, for example: the projection of the combustion platform 21 in a top view direction may be a rectangle, and, a plurality of combustion platforms 21 are arranged in the form of a rectangular array on the burner substrate 11, the third combustion hole 35 is distributed on the spacer 33 between two adjacent combustion platforms 21, and a plurality of third combustion holes 35 can form a determinant arrangement having a certain row pitch and column pitch, wherein, the third combustion holes 35 can intersect each other in a row direction and a column direction, namely, the third combustion holes 35 can share one combustion hole in the row direction and column direction. The combustion hole is a large-caliber third combustion hole 36, and the rest third combustion holes are small-caliber third combustion holes 38. The pore diameter of the large-caliber third combustion hole 36 is greater than that of the small-caliber third combustion hole 38. The large-caliber third combustion hole 36 is provided on a center among two rows and two columns of, in total four, combustion platforms 21, and the distance from the center to each combustion platform 21 is the farthest. Therefore, there is relatively enough space at the center for setting the large-caliber third combustion hole 36, such that the combustion area can be increased sufficiently to improve the combustion efficiency. Furthermore, the inventor has found through studies that the thermal load per unit area can be improved when the pore diameter of the third combustion hole 35 is less than 3 mm. In this embodiment, the third combustion hole 35 can increase the combustion porosity to improve the thermal load per unit area.

In one embodiment, total area of the main combustion hole 13 is A1, total area of the auxiliary combustion hole 15 is A2, area of the third combustion hole 25 is A3, area of the burner substrate is A, and the porosity K=(A1+A2+A3)/A, wherein the numerical value of K is larger than 5%. The porosity K=(A1+A2+A3)/A, and the value indicates the use ratio of the burner substrate. When the porosity is greater, the thermal load produced per unit area of the cross section of the combustion chamber is also greater, i.e., the use ratio of the burner substrate is higher; in other words, under the same requirement for thermal load, the burner with a larger porosity will have a smaller total area. The numerical value of the porosity K in the present application is greater than 5%, thus the gas premix burner 10 has a good thermal load and use ratio.

The present application also provides a gas water heater which may be mounted with the gas premix burner 10 introduced in any of the above embodiments. The gas water heater has a relatively high heating efficiency, and is capable of well preventing the flame lift phenomenon from happening, thereby prolonging the service life of the product.

Referring to FIG. 7, in one embodiment of the present application, a mixed gas distribution plate 42 is installed in the premix chamber 40 of the gas water heater, a vent hole 44 is disposed on the mixed gas distribution plate 42, and air and gas entered the premix chamber 40 can pass through the vent hole 44 and then be burned by the gas premix burner 10. By setting the mixed gas distribution plate 42, the air and gas entering the premix chamber can be mixed more sufficiently, so that the mixed gas can be burned more sufficiently at the gas premix burner 10. The premix chamber 40 is bounded by a housing 46, and a support 48 may be provided on a side wall inside the housing 46 for mounting the mixed gas distribution plate 42.

As can be seen from the technical solution provided in the above embodiments of the present application, in the gas premix burner provided in the present application, the main combustion hole is provided upstream the auxiliary combustion hole along the combustion direction. Since the main flame is usually larger in scale than the auxiliary flame, by providing the main flame upstream the auxiliary flame, it will be easier for the auxiliary flame and the main flame to intersect each other, and then the effect of stabilizing the flame is realized by opposed flames formed by the auxiliary flame and the main flame. In view of this, the present application has a good thermal load.

Although the present application is described through the embodiments, under the inspiration of the technical spirits of the present application, persons skilled in the art can combine the above embodiments, and can also make changes to the embodiments of the present application, which should all be covered under the protection scopes of the present application as long as the functions and effects realized thereby are the same or similar to the present application.
