Abstract

A linearly regulated fuel valve system is provided that includes a slotted conical rotatable plug component that is received in a conical cavity formed in a valve body which can be remotely controlled. The slotted plug serves to establish multiple flow paths through the valve body when rotated so as to align an opening formed in the cavity wall with an orifice formed in the side of the plug. The rotational orientation of the plug with respect to the wall and the orifice in the plug is set by a latch element permitting graduated stepwise adjustment settings such as high, medium, low and shut off of gas flow through the valve. Accordingly, the unique system may be adjusted by remote controlled to a wide range of settings by a single cone having a constant channel for fuel flow.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention generally relates to the construction of valves such as are used to control the flow of combustible fuel fired appliances and more particularly pertains to improvements in the configuration and construction of such valves in order to provide linear graduated regulation of fuel flow.

[0002] Conventional designs of manual gas valves typically include a “cone” or conical plug having a single opening for regulating the flow of gas to either “Low” or “High” output. Such design does not generally allow intermediate settings of fuel output by the user.

[0003] Gas valve control systems can also be used in various applications, including remote controlled heaters and fireplaces. These gas valve control systems typically transmit the control signal as a RF signal or as an infrared (IR) signal. As soon as the receiver receives the control signal, the receiver processes the control signal and operates the appliance in response to the control si...
