[0001] The invention refers to a burner operated with either fuel oil or kerosene singularly
or differently mixed, and using only one injector. The device can be employed for
heating cans or stoves to co ok foods and three types of cooking are possible: in
water, il oil and in air. At present burners are used operating either with fuel oil
or kerosene; the former type shows an outer top annular part having inside two spherical
callottes closed in a shell-like way, operating as pre-heating chambers of the combustible
fluid which then passes into the above outer part through a radial piping. The fluid
passes through a swan neck and reaches the injector, where a delivery regulator is
operating. The outgoing liquid sprinkles the lower part of the above mentioned spherical
callottes, completing thus its transformation from the liquid into the gas state.
[0002] The inconvenience of this system resides in causing a pressure increase in the tank
which, after an operation time longer than 60 min. reaches values near 1 atu. that
are deemed dangerous. The employ of kerosene in these burners is at present practically
impossible since the exceeding volume of fuel contained in the pre-heating zone causes
it.to be transformed from the liquid into the gas one in a too large quantity so that
to push the transformation of physical state into the pre-heating zone. This lets
the gaseous mass to remount the way going against pressure and pouring in the fuel
tank, causing the formation of bubbles. This fluctuating increase of pressure in the
tank raises pressure and temperature which attain dangerous values for the device
employ.
[0003] Differently from the present systems, the invented one exludes the employ of the
central shell-shaped body and of the relevant pre-heating system. In addition, the
pre-heating annular is foreseen in a diameter lower than 3/4"G to permit a smaller
quantity of fluid going through the pre-heating zone and, therefore, a more efficient
evaporation. The reduction of the fuel volume contained in the pre-heating zone'in
comparison with the present devices and the replacement of the concentrical shell-shaped
annular with the small cup allow the employ of the burner indifferently with either
fuels, both singularly and differently mixed.
[0004] Substantially a small cup is employed, which is centrally fitted in the pre-heating
annular duct, from which the fluid is coming completing its nebulization after having
left the injector. In addition, the pipe of which the pre-heating annular is consisting,
has been foreseen in a 1/2"G. diameter, to allow an increase of the evaporation effect.
A tank for the fuel is used, set and kept in pressure by operating a mechanical piston
device fed through a duct. The pressure determined by this pumping contrivance can
be between the ideal values from 0.1 to 0.2 atm. which guarantees the required delivery
of fuel.
[0005] A version of execution is illustrated for information by the drawings of Table 1,
where Fig. 1 represents the burner in a front view showing the adduction way of the
fuel from the tank, the pre- heating annular and the small basin for the firing fuel
containment. Fig. 2 shows the installation seen from above, and the pre- heating annular
can be seen which is fitted on the-small cup by means of a system of four steel ducts
in a radial scheme. Fig. 3 is the longitudinal section of the burner, showing the
pre-heating annular and the injector adduction part. The section of the regulating
device can also be noted. The invention foresees the fuel passing from the tank 1
by means of tank 2 through pipe 3 into the pre-heating annular 4, from which, through
swan neck 5, it reaches the regulation part 6 where rod 7 is fitted gliding along
its axle and dosing the fluid exit from injector 8. The fuel in liquid-gaseous phase,
through a system of steel ducts 10 in a radial scheme, reaches cup 9. On contacting
this one, the fuel completes its transformation into gaseous state and is ignited
starting the combustion proceeding. For ignition, a quantity of fluid is required
to fill cup 11, and means of different kinds are to be triggered, such as wick, a
thermal lance, a poker or a common bundle imbibed with either benzine or alcohol.
[0006] After some minutes' waiting, useful for the fuel liquid pre-heating in the burner
piping, inlet 6 can be slowly opened leading to the injector so as to allow a gradual
ignition of the fuel. The particulars and the various devices, as well as the base
composition, may be differently executed according to employ requirements.
1) Oil burner for camping cooking, characterized by the fact that substantially a
small cup is employed, which is centrally fitted in the pre-heating annular duct,
from which the fluid is coming completing its nebulization after having left the injector.
In addition, the pipe of which the pre-heating annular is consisting, has been foreseen
in a 1/2"G. diameter, to allow an increase of the evaporation effect. The reduction
of the fuel volume contained in the pre-heating zone in comparison with the present
devices and the replacement of the concentrical shell-shaped annular with the small
cup allow the employ of the burner indifferently with either fuels, both singularly
and differently mixed.
