Abstract

Brûleur à gaz de prémélange comprenant une plaque de montage métallique (102), une chambre de mélange (108), un élément de recouvrement de brûleur poreux (110) et une structure de plaque (106). L'élément de recouvrement de brûleur poreux renferme la chambre de mélange. La combustion est stabilisée sur l'élément de recouvrement de brûleur poreux après que le gaz de prémélange s'est écoulé depuis la chambre de mélange à travers l'élément de recouvrement de brûleur poreux. La structure de plaque comprend une pluralité de perforations et est disposée dans la chambre de mélange pour permettre l'écoulement du gaz de prémélange à travers les perforations de la structure de plaque avant que le gaz de prémélange s'écoule à travers l'élément de recouvrement de brûleur poreux. La circonférence de l'élément de recouvrement de brûleur poreux a la forme d'un rectangle dont les deux côtés courts ont été arrondis. La structure de plaque est obtenue par découpe et pliage d'une plaque métallique. Lors de l'assemblage du brûleur, la structure de plaque est déformée et peut se redresser de telle sorte que, dans le brûleur, les forces élastiques de la structure de plaque assurent le positionnement de la structure de plaque contre les éléments de support de la plaque de montage métallique.
