Based on the principle of hydrodynamics, the atomizer is mounted in the cutting torch, gasoline is sucked from the gasoline tank by an oxygen jet stream under high speed, and is atomized in the cutting torch and the cutting nozzle, and mixed with oxygen, and the mixture is then jetted from the cutting nozzle for ignition to obtain a cutting flame.

A Jet-inducing atomizer for gasoline-oxygen cutting-welding according to the present invention comprises a main body of the atomizer, a diffusion tube, a preheating oxygen fine-tube and a gasoline fine-tube. The diffusion tube and the preheating oxygen fine-tube are provided at the center of the main body co-axially, and communicated with each other. The gasoline fine-tube enters the main body from one side of the main body, and is communicated with the diffusion tube. The diffusion tube is a conical tube. The coarse end of the conical tube is coincident with the end face of the body. The fine end of the conical tube is connected with the preheating oxygen fine-tube. The taper α₁ of the conical tube equals to 5°-10°. The length 1₀ of the conical tube is 2-5 times of the length 1₁ of the preheating oxygen fine-tube, i.e. 1₀=(2-5) 1. The length 1₁ of the preheating oxygen fine-tube is 3-5 mm. The distance 1₂ between the intersection point of the gasoline fine-tube with the diffusion tube and the connection point of the diffusion tube with the preheating oxygen tube equals to 2-8 mm.

In the atomizer as mentioned above, the angle α₂ between the gasoline fine-tube and the perpendicular surface of the diffusion tube equals to 0-450. The diameter d₁ of the preheating oxygen fine-tube equals to 0.5-2.5 mm. The diameter d₂ of the small end of the diffusion tube equals to 1.5-3 mm. The diameter d₃ of the gasoline fine tube equals to 0.5-2 mm.

The atomizer of the present invention is fixed at the head of the cutting torch or in the preheating oxygen tube. After the preheating oxygen tube is opened, gasoline is sucked into the cutting torch and atomized to obtain cutting flame which is combusted sufficiently, has concentrated flame and is easy to be adjusted. The obvious advantages of the gasoline-oxygen cutting machine according to the invention are as follows: the operation is easy as the gasoline tank needs not be pressurized; there is no leak of gasoline or jet of gasoline in leaking manner during operation.
