Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of household appliance technology, and in particular to a gas stove ignition device and a gas stove. Background Technology

[0002] With social development and the continuous improvement of people's environmental awareness, natural gas energy is becoming more and more widespread, and gas stoves are now found in thousands of households. However, the safety hazards brought about by gas use have been exposed through a series of tragedies.

[0003] The instant ignition function, delayed ignition function, and flameout protection function of existing gas stoves are a kind of protection for gas safety.

[0004] The instant ignition function involves the gas stove igniting and simultaneously energizing the solenoid valve with a pulse generator, keeping the solenoid valve energized for at least 5 seconds. This ensures sufficient time for the gas stove to heat the thermocouple, generating enough electrical energy to keep the solenoid valve open. However, the energizing time of the pulse generator to the solenoid valve in this ignition process is often fixed and cannot detect whether the gas stove's thermocouple has been fully heated to the required temperature. If the thermocouple is dirty, the time required to heat it to a certain temperature often exceeds the energizing time of the pulse generator to the solenoid valve, easily causing the flame to extinguish after the ignition is released and the flame resumes burning once the energizing time of the pulse generator to the solenoid valve is reached. Extending the energizing time of the pulse generator to the solenoid valve would waste battery power, leading to frequent gas stove battery replacements, environmental pollution, and a negative impact on user experience.

[0005] The delayed ignition function allows the igniter to continue igniting for more than 5 seconds after the ignition button is pressed, preventing gas leaks caused by the ignition stopping before the gas is burned and improving the ignition success rate. However, the delayed ignition function means that the igniter will continue to discharge for a set time regardless of whether ignition is successful or not. It cannot stop discharging after successful ignition, resulting in wasted power. The continuous discharge after successful ignition gives users the feeling of an ignition failure, affecting the user experience.

[0006] The information disclosed in this background section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the background technology of this application, and therefore may include prior art that is not known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0032] Thermocouple 300 is configured to sense the temperature of the gas stove and, when the preset temperature is reached, control the first control circuit and the second control circuit to switch to the second control state.

[0033] In the first control state, the solenoid valve opens, and the ignition system 400 is powered on and running. In the second control state, the solenoid valve is closed, and the ignition system 400 is de-energized and shut down.

[0034] The gas stove ignition device described above, by setting a first control circuit and a second control circuit, can automatically stop ignition when the thermocouple reaches a preset temperature after successful ignition is detected, thus avoiding waste of battery power.

[0035] The structure of the gas stove ignition device will be explained in detail below. Example 1

[0036] Reference Figures 1-3 This is an embodiment of the gas stove ignition device of the present invention.

[0037] The gas stove ignition device includes an ignition switch 100, a solenoid valve, a thermocouple 300, an ignition control circuit, and a thermocouple control circuit.

[0038] See Figure 3 The ignition switch 100 includes a moving iron core 110 and a stationary iron core 120 spaced apart from each other, and a first coil 130 and a second coil 140 respectively sleeved on the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120. The moving iron core 110 can move up and down. The moving iron core 110 is connected to an elastic element, such as a spring 150, which can keep the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120 in a separated state.

[0039] The solenoid valve includes a valve body, a main solenoid coil 210, and a secondary solenoid coil 220. The solenoid valve is connected to the gas passage. The main solenoid coil 210 and the secondary solenoid coil 220 are used to control the valve body's movement.

[0040] See Figure 1 The ignition control circuit includes a first control circuit and an ignition system 400. The first control circuit includes a power supply, a time-limited switch A connected to the power supply, and the other end of the time-limited switch A is connected to a delay switch B and a second coil 140. The other end of the delay switch B is connected to a solenoid valve secondary coil 220 and a first switch C. The other end of the first switch C is connected to the ignition system 400. The other ends of the ignition system 400, the solenoid valve secondary coil 220, and the second coil 140 are respectively connected to the power supply, forming a circuit.

[0041] See Figure 2 The thermocouple control circuit includes a second control circuit and thermocouple 300.

[0042] The second control circuit includes a second switch D and a third switch E. One end of the second switch D is connected to the thermocouple 300, and the other end of the second switch is connected to the first coil 130. One end of the third switch E is connected to the thermocouple 300, and the other end of the third switch E is connected to the solenoid valve main coil 210. The other ends of the first coil 130 and the solenoid valve main coil 210 are connected to the thermocouple 300, forming a circuit.

[0043] See Figure 3When the moving iron core 110 separates from the stationary iron core 120, the time-delay switch B, the time-limiting switch A, the first switch C, and the second switch D are open, and the third switch E is closed. Pressing the moving iron core 110 closes the time-delay switch B, the time-limiting switch A, the first switch C, and the second switch D, and opens the third switch E. When the second coil 140 is energized, the stationary iron core 120 becomes magnetic, allowing it to attract the moving iron core 110. The potential generated by the thermocouple, passing through the first coil 130, causes the moving iron core 110 to generate an electromagnetic field in the opposite direction to that of the stationary iron core. This creates a repulsive force between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120, causing them to separate. This, in turn, opens the time-delay switch B, the time-limiting switch A, the first switch C, and the second switch D, and closes the third switch E. The generation of electromagnetic fields in opposite directions between the stationary iron core 120 and the moving iron core 110 can be achieved by reversing the direction of the current flowing into the first coil 130 and the second coil 140. Alternatively, the first coil 130 and the second coil 140 can be wound in opposite directions while current is passed through them in the same direction.

[0044] The working principle of the gas stove ignition device in this embodiment is as follows.

[0045] Pressing the moving iron core 110 causes the contacts of the four switches ABCDE to move downward a certain distance, closing the time-limited switch A, the delay switch B, the first switch C, and the second switch D, while opening the third switch E.

[0046] When delay switch B opens, time limit switch A opens simultaneously, power is supplied to the secondary coil 220 of solenoid valve, solenoid valve opens, thus opening the gas passage.

[0047] When delay switch B opens, first switch C opens simultaneously, and ignition system 400 begins discharge ignition.

[0048] Timer switch A is turned on, the second coil 140 is energized, so that the stationary iron core 120 has a magnetic field, so that the stationary iron core 120 and the moving iron core 110 are attracted together, keeping the ABCDE switch in the open and closed state. At the same time, timer switch A is set to a certain opening time. If the set time is exceeded, timer switch A (the main circuit switch) will automatically turn off to avoid gas leakage due to prolonged failure to ignite.

[0049] When the second switch D is opened, the potential generated by the thermocouple 300 passes through the first coil 130, causing the moving iron core 110 to generate an electromagnetic field in the opposite direction to the stationary iron core. A repulsive force is generated between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120. When the gas is ignited, the flame heats the thermocouple 300 to a certain temperature. The generated thermoelectric potential makes the attraction force between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120 less than the repulsive force (the sum of the spring force of the spring 150 and the repulsive force between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120). When this occurs, the moving iron core 110 moves upward, and the time-limiting switch A, the delay switch B, the first switch C, and the second switch D are opened, while the third switch E is closed.

[0050] When delay switch B is closed, the power supply provides current to the secondary coil 220 of the solenoid valve for a certain period of time (the delay time is set by delay switch B) before cutting off the power. If time limit switch A is closed, no current flows through the secondary coil 220 of the solenoid valve. Because delay switch B is closed and the delay time is started at the same time, the second switch D is closed, the first coil 130 is de-energized, and the third switch E is in the open state, so that the thermoelectric potential generated by thermocouple 300 passes through the main coil 210 of the solenoid valve, maintaining the open and closed state of the solenoid valve. At this time, the thermocouple 300 senses that ignition has been successful or that the ignition time has exceeded the time set by time limit switch A.

[0051] When the first switch C is turned off, the ignition system 400 stops discharging and igniting.

[0052] When timer switch A is turned off, the second coil 140 is de-energized, the solenoid valve secondary coil 220 is de-energized, and the ignition control circuit is shut down.

[0053] The delay time of delay switch B can be set to 3-5 seconds. The time limit switch can be set to 10 seconds.

[0054] The aforementioned gas stove ignition device, by setting a first coil 130 on the moving iron core 110, can automatically stop ignition after successful detection, avoiding waste of battery power; at the same time, by setting a delay switch B, it can continuously supply power to the solenoid valve for a period of time after successful ignition is detected, to prevent the solenoid valve from being unable to maintain its opening due to insufficient heating temperature of the thermocouple 300, thus improving the ignition success rate of the gas stove; by setting a time limit switch A, if ignition fails, the time limit switch A closes after a certain ignition time, shutting off the ignition control circuit, disconnecting the gas path, stopping ignition, and making gas use safer. Example 2

[0055] Reference Figures 4-6 This is a second embodiment of the gas stove ignition device of the present invention.

[0056] The gas stove ignition device includes an ignition switch 100, a solenoid valve, a thermocouple 300, an ignition control circuit, and a thermocouple control circuit.

[0057] See Figure 6 The ignition switch 100 includes a moving iron core 110 and a stationary iron core 120 spaced apart from each other, and a first coil 130 and a second coil 140 respectively sleeved on the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120. The moving iron core 110 can move up and down. The moving iron core 110 is connected to an elastic element, such as a spring 150, which can keep the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120 in a separated state.

[0058] The solenoid valve includes a valve body, a main solenoid coil 210, and a secondary solenoid coil 220. The solenoid valve is connected to the gas passage. The main solenoid coil 210 and the secondary solenoid coil 220 are used to control the valve body's movement.

[0059] See Figure 4 The ignition control circuit includes a first control circuit and an ignition system 400.

[0060] The first control circuit includes a power supply and a time-limited switch A connected to the power supply. The other end of the time-limited switch A is connected to the solenoid valve secondary coil 220, the second coil 140 and the first switch C respectively. The other end of the solenoid valve secondary coil 220 is connected to the time-delay switch B. The other end of the first switch C is connected to the ignition system 400. The other ends of the ignition system 400, the time-delay switch B and the second coil 140 are respectively connected to the power supply and form a circuit.

[0061] See Figure 5 The thermocouple control circuit includes a second control circuit and thermocouple 300.

[0062] The second control circuit includes a second switch D and a third switch E. One end of the second switch D is connected to the thermocouple 300, and the other end of the second switch is connected to the first coil 130. One end of the third switch E is connected to the thermocouple 300, and the other end of the third switch E is connected to the solenoid valve main coil 210. The other ends of the first coil 130 and the solenoid valve main coil 210 are connected to the thermocouple 300, forming a circuit.

[0063] See Figure 6 When the moving iron core 110 separates from the stationary iron core 120, the time-delay switch B, the time-limiting switch A, the first switch C, and the second switch D are open, and the third switch E is closed. Pressing the moving iron core 110 closes the time-delay switch B, the time-limiting switch A, the first switch C, and the second switch D, and opens the third switch E. When the second coil 140 is energized, the stationary iron core 120 becomes magnetic, allowing it to attract the moving iron core 110. The potential generated by the thermocouple, passing through the first coil 130, causes the moving iron core 110 to generate an electromagnetic field in the opposite direction to that of the stationary iron core. This creates a repulsive force between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120, causing them to separate. This, in turn, opens the time-delay switch B, the time-limiting switch A, the first switch C, and the second switch D, and closes the third switch E. The generation of electromagnetic fields in opposite directions between the stationary iron core 120 and the moving iron core 110 can be achieved by reversing the direction of the current flowing into the first coil 130 and the second coil 140. Alternatively, the first coil 130 and the second coil 140 can be wound in opposite directions while current is passed through them in the same direction.

[0064] The working principle of the gas stove ignition device in this embodiment is as follows.

[0065] Pressing the moving iron core 110 causes the contacts of the four switches ABCDE to move downward a certain distance, closing the time-limited switch A, the delay switch B, the first switch C, and the second switch D, while opening the third switch E.

[0066] When delay switch B opens, time limit switch A opens simultaneously, power is supplied to the secondary coil 220 of solenoid valve, solenoid valve opens, thus opening the gas passage.

[0067] When delay switch B opens, first switch C opens simultaneously, and ignition system 400 begins discharge ignition.

[0068] Timer switch A is turned on, the second coil 140 is energized, so that the stationary iron core 120 has a magnetic field, so that the stationary iron core 120 and the moving iron core 110 are attracted together, keeping the ABCDE switch in the open and closed state. At the same time, timer switch A is set to a certain opening time. If the set time is exceeded, timer switch A (the main circuit switch) will automatically turn off to avoid gas leakage due to prolonged failure to ignite.

[0069] When the second switch D is opened, the potential generated by the thermocouple 300 passes through the first coil 130, causing the moving iron core 110 to generate an electromagnetic field in the opposite direction. A repulsive force is generated between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120. When the gas is ignited, the flame heats the thermocouple 300 to a certain temperature. The generated thermoelectric potential makes the attraction force between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120 less than the repulsive force (the sum of the spring force of the spring 150 and the repulsive force between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120). When this occurs, the moving iron core 110 moves upward, and the time-limiting switch A, the delay switch B, the first switch C, and the second switch D are opened, while the third switch E is closed.

[0070] When delay switch B is closed, the power supply provides current to the secondary coil 220 of the solenoid valve for a certain period of time (the delay time is set by delay switch B) before cutting off the power. If time limit switch A is closed, no current flows through the secondary coil 220 of the solenoid valve. Because delay switch B is closed and the delay time is started at the same time, the second switch D is closed, the first coil 130 is de-energized, and the third switch E is in the open state, so that the thermoelectric potential generated by thermocouple 300 passes through the main coil 210 of the solenoid valve, maintaining the open and closed state of the solenoid valve. At this time, the thermocouple 300 senses that ignition has been successful or that the ignition time has exceeded the time set by time limit switch A.

[0071] When the first switch C is turned off, the ignition system 400 stops discharging and igniting.

[0072] When timer switch A is turned off, the second coil 140 is de-energized, the solenoid valve secondary coil 220 is de-energized, and the ignition control circuit is shut down.

[0073] The delay time of delay switch B can be set to 3-5 seconds. The time limit switch can be set to 10 seconds.

[0074] The aforementioned gas stove ignition device, by setting a first coil 130 on the moving iron core 110, can automatically stop ignition after successful detection, avoiding waste of battery power; at the same time, by setting a delay switch B, it can continuously supply power to the solenoid valve for a period of time after successful ignition is detected, to prevent the solenoid valve from being unable to maintain its opening due to insufficient heating temperature of the thermocouple 300, thus improving the ignition success rate of the gas stove; by setting a time limit switch A, if ignition fails, the time limit switch A closes after a certain ignition time, shutting off the ignition control circuit, disconnecting the gas path, stopping ignition, and making gas use safer.

The other ends of the ignition system 400, the time delay switch B, and the second coil 140 are all connected to the power supply and form a circuit.

[0081] See Figure 8 The thermocouple control circuit includes a second control circuit and thermocouple 300.

[0082] The second control circuit includes a second switch D and a third switch E. One end of the second switch D is connected to the thermocouple 300, and the other end of the second switch is connected to the first coil 130. One end of the third switch E is connected to the thermocouple 300, and the other end of the third switch E is connected to the solenoid valve main coil 210. The other ends of the first coil 130 and the solenoid valve main coil 210 are connected to the thermocouple 300, forming a circuit.

[0083] See Figure 9 When the moving iron core 110 separates from the stationary iron core 120, time-delay switch B, first switch C, second switch D, and fourth switch F are open, and third switch E is closed. Pressing the moving iron core 110 closes time-delay switch B, first switch C, second switch D, and fourth switch F, and opens third switch E. When the second coil 140 is energized, the stationary iron core 120 becomes magnetic, allowing it to attract the moving iron core 110. The potential generated by the thermocouple, passing through the first coil 130, causes the moving iron core 110 to generate an electromagnetic field in the opposite direction to that of the stationary iron core. This creates a repulsive force between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120, causing them to separate. This, in turn, opens time-delay switch B, first switch C, second switch D, and fourth switch F, and closes third switch E. The generation of electromagnetic fields in opposite directions between the stationary iron core 120 and the moving iron core 110 can be achieved by reversing the direction of the current flowing into the first coil 130 and the second coil 140. Alternatively, the first coil 130 and the second coil 140 can be wound in opposite directions while current is passed through them in the same direction.

[0084] The working principle of the gas stove ignition device in this embodiment is as follows.

[0085] Pressing the moving iron core 110 causes the contacts of the four switches B, C, D, E, and F to move downward a certain distance, closing the time-delay switch B, the first switch C, the second switch D, and the fourth switch F, while opening the third switch E.

[0086] When delay switch B is turned on, the power supply provides power to the secondary coil 220 of the solenoid valve, causing the solenoid valve to open and thus opening the gas passage.

[0087] When the first switch C is turned on, the ignition system 400 begins to discharge and ignite.

[0088] When the fourth switch F is opened, the second coil 140 is energized, giving the stationary iron core 120 a magnetic field, which causes the stationary iron core 120 to attract the moving iron core 110, maintaining the open / closed state of the BCDEF switch.

[0089] When the second switch D is opened, the potential generated by the thermocouple 300 passes through the first coil 130, causing the moving iron core 110 to generate an electromagnetic field in the opposite direction. A repulsive force is generated between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120. When the gas is ignited, the flame heats the thermocouple 300 to a certain temperature. The generated thermoelectric potential makes the attraction force between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120 less than the repulsive force (the sum of the spring force of the spring 150 and the repulsive force between the moving iron core 110 and the stationary iron core 120). When this occurs, the moving iron core 110 moves upward, and the time delay switch B, the first switch C, the second switch D, and the fourth switch F are opened, while the third switch E is closed.

[0090] When delay switch B closes, the power supply provides current to the secondary coil 220 of the solenoid valve for a certain period of time (the delay time is set by delay switch B) before cutting off the power. Simultaneously with the closure of delay switch B and the activation of the delay time, the second switch D closes, the first coil 130 is de-energized, and the third switch E is open. This allows the thermoelectric potential generated by thermocouple 300 to pass through the main coil 210 of the solenoid valve, maintaining the open / closed state of the solenoid valve. At this point, thermocouple 300 senses successful ignition.

[0091] When the first switch C is turned off, the ignition system 400 stops discharging and igniting.

[0092] When the fourth switch F is turned off, the second coil 140 is de-energized, the solenoid valve secondary coil 220 is de-energized, and the ignition control circuit is shut down.

[0093] The delay time of delay switch B can be set to 3~5 seconds.

[0094] The gas stove ignition device described above, by setting a first coil 130 on the moving iron core 110, can automatically stop ignition after detecting successful ignition, thus avoiding the waste of battery power; at the same time, by setting a delay switch B, it can continuously supply power to the solenoid valve for a period of time after detecting successful ignition, thus avoiding the inability to keep the solenoid valve open due to insufficient heating temperature of thermocouple 300, thereby improving the ignition success rate of the gas stove.
