The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar structures, and therefore their detailed description will be omitted.
[0034] The terms “a,” “one,” and “the” are used to indicate the existence of one or more elements / components / etc.; the terms “include” and “have” are used to indicate an open-ended meaning of inclusion and that there may be other elements / components / etc. in addition to the listed elements / components / etc.
[0035] This utility model embodiment provides a flame cover, such as Figure 1-7As shown, the flame cover includes a flame cover body 1, a limiting structure 2, and a locking structure 3. The flame cover body 1 includes an outer ring 11 and an inner ring 12 coaxially arranged. The outer ring 11 is located on the outer periphery of the inner ring 12, and the inner ring 12 can rotate relative to the outer ring 11. The limiting structure 2 includes a first limiting part 21 connected to the outer ring 11 and a second limiting part 22 connected to the inner ring 12. The first limiting part 21 and the second limiting part 22 cooperate to give the outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12 a first installation position and a second installation position. The locking structure 3 is connected to the inner ring 12 and the first limiting part 21 to lock or unlock the outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12. In this application, the outer ring 11 of the flame cap is made of stainless steel, and the inner ring 12 of the flame cap is made of copper. Both the outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12 of the flame cap are metal parts with very low resilience. The outer ring 11 and the first limiting part 21 can be formed by stamping, and the shape is simple. The inner ring 12 and the second limiting part 22 can be formed by machining or forging. They are initially connected by the cooperation of the first limiting part 21 and the second limiting part 22. Then, the locking structure 3 is used to lock the outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12 of the flame cap. Specifically, the inner ring 12 of the burner cap is located below the outer ring 11 of the burner cap and moves upward. With the connection of the first limiting part 21 and the second limiting part 22, the outer ring 11 of the burner cap is disposed on the outer periphery of the inner ring 12 of the burner cap, and the inner ring 12 of the burner cap can rotate relative to the outer ring 11 of the burner cap. The outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12 of the burner cap are defined in a first installation position when aligned and just touching; the outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12 of the burner cap are defined in a second installation position when assembled. At this time, the inner ring 12 of the burner cap can rotate relative to the outer ring 11 of the burner cap, and the locking structure 3 secures the outer ring 11 of the burner cap. Ring 11 and inner ring 12 of the burner cap are locked together to avoid wear that may occur during the interference fit installation of two different parts in the prior art. This solves the problem of parts easily falling off due to wear, improves the service life of the product, and makes the product more durable. Finally, the locking structure 3 unlocks the outer ring 11 and inner ring 12 of the burner cap, making it convenient to install and remove the outer ring 11 and inner ring 12 of the burner cap. If either the outer ring 11 or the inner ring 12 of the burner cap malfunctions, it can be disassembled and replaced at any time, saving costs.
[0036] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2-7The first limiting part 21 shown includes an annular groove 211 formed along the inner side of the top of the outer ring 11 of the flame cap. The second limiting part 22 includes a limiting protrusion 221 connected to the inner ring 12 of the flame cap. The opening of the annular groove 211 faces the limiting protrusion 221. The limiting protrusion 221 can be inserted into the annular groove 211 and rotate along the annular groove 211, so that the outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12 of the flame cap are arranged in a second installation position. In this application, the limiting protrusion 221 and the annular groove 211 are clearance-fitted. The outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12 of the flame cap are coaxially arranged and can move relative to each other. As the limiting protrusion 221 approaches and inserts into the annular groove 211, the assembly of the outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12 of the flame cap is realized, solving the problem in the prior art that wear occurs during the pressing process of two metal parts made of different materials, and loosening occurs after long-term use. In addition, there is no less than one limiting protrusion 221, preferably two, three, four, five, six, eight, etc. Each limiting protrusion 221 is evenly distributed along the outer periphery of the inner ring 12 of the flame cap and is inserted into the annular groove 211, so that the inner ring 12 of the flame cap is subjected to uniform force and the problem of the inner ring 12 of the flame cap coming out of the annular groove 211 is avoided.
[0037] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2-4 The annular groove 211 shown in Figures 6 and 7 has a first limiting groove 212 for alignment with the limiting protrusion 221. The limiting protrusion 221 can be inserted into the first limiting groove 212, positioning the outer ring 11 and inner ring 12 of the flame cap in a first installation position. The first limiting groove 212 connects to the interior of the annular groove 211, allowing the limiting protrusion 221 to enter the annular groove 211 via the first limiting groove 212. In this embodiment, the first limiting groove 212 and the limiting protrusion 221 correspond, and preferably, the lower wall of the annular groove 211 has the first limiting groove 212. During installation, firstly, the inner ring 12 of the flame cap is placed below the outer ring 11 of the flame cap; then, a limiting protrusion 221 is aligned with and inserted into the first limiting groove 212, and then slid into the annular groove 211. The first limiting groove 212 facilitates the alignment and installation of the outer ring 11 and inner ring 12 of the flame cap, improving installation efficiency.
[0038] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2-4 The first limiting groove 212 shown in Figures 6 and 7 is an open groove. The bottom of the first limiting groove 212 is inclined upward from the outside to the inside, so that the limiting protrusion 221 can slide into the annular groove 211 through the first limiting groove 212. In this embodiment, the inclined setting of the first limiting groove 212 can guide the movement of the limiting protrusion 221. The inner ring 12 of the flame cap slides upward from below the outer ring 11 of the flame cap along the bottom of the first limiting groove 212, so that the limiting protrusion 221 enters the annular groove 211, realizing the initial installation of the inner ring 12 and the outer ring 11 of the flame cap. Then, the locking structure is used to further fix the inner ring 12 and the outer ring 11 of the flame cap.
[0039] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-7 The locking structure 3 shown includes a threaded hole 31 and a screw in the inner ring 12 of the flame cap. The screw is connected to the threaded hole 31 and the first limiting groove 212. After the limiting protrusion 221 is inserted into the annular groove 211, the inner ring 12 of the flame cap is rotated so that the threaded hole 31 is aligned with the first limiting groove 212, and the screw is inserted into the first limiting groove 212 through the threaded hole 31, thereby fixing the inner ring 12 and the outer ring 11 of the flame cap and preventing the inner ring 12 and the outer ring 11 of the flame cap from separating when the user rotates the inner ring 12.
[0040] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-7 The locking structure 3 shown also includes a mounting groove 32 located at the top of the inner ring 12 of the flame cap, with the groove opening facing downwards. A threaded hole 31 is provided on the side of the mounting groove 32 near the annular groove 211. The outer ring 11 of the flame cap has a uniform wall thickness but is made of relatively thin material; therefore, it lacks threaded posts or threaded holes, which is disadvantageous for assembling the outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12. Although threaded posts can be welded to the outer ring 11, the manufacturing cost is significantly increased. In this application, the threaded hole 31 on the inner ring 12 of the flame cap corresponds to the first limiting groove 212. The threaded hole 31 and the annular groove 211 may partially overlap or not overlap. The inner diameter of the mounting groove 32 is much larger than the inner diameter of the threaded hole 31. Screws are inserted into the threaded hole 31 through the mounting groove 32. The axis of the threaded hole 31 is inclined upwards from the inside out, facilitating screw installation. Of course, the axis of the threaded hole 31 can also be horizontal, as long as screws can be used to fix the outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12 of the flame cap.
[0041] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the outer ring 11 of the flame cap is fixed to prevent the user from rotating the inner ring 12 of the flame cap. Figure 2-7 The second limiting part 22 shown also includes a limiting protrusion 222 connected to the top outer periphery of the inner ring 12 of the flame cap. A second limiting groove 213 with the opening facing the bottom of the inner side of the outer ring 11 of the flame cap is formed. The limiting protrusion 222 is inserted into and abuts against the bottom of the second limiting groove 213. In this application, the inner ring 12 of the flame cap moves from bottom to top, causing the limiting protrusion 221 to insert into the annular groove 211 to achieve the connection of the outer ring 11 of the flame cap. The second limiting groove 213 is formed on the bottom of the inner side of the outer ring 11 of the flame cap. The limiting protrusion 222 is inserted into and abuts against the bottom of the second limiting groove 213 to limit the installation position of the inner ring 12 of the flame cap. At the same time, the limiting protrusion 222 can also support the outer ring 11 of the flame cap, improving the stability of the outer ring 11 and the inner ring 12 of the flame cap.
[0042] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-7The outer ring 11 of the burner cap shown includes an outer ring wall 111 and a top wall 112 connected to the top of the outer ring wall 111. The inner ring 12 of the burner cap includes an inner ring wall 121 connected to the inner side of the top wall 112. The outer ring wall 111, the top wall 112, and the inner ring wall 121 together form an exhaust chamber 10. The inner ring wall 121 has multiple exhaust holes 122 arranged spirally along its inner circumference. Each exhaust hole 122 connects the exhaust chamber 10 to the outside. In this application, the limiting boss 222 may also have corresponding air passage holes, so that each exhaust hole 122 connects the exhaust chamber 10 to the outside. The multiple exhaust holes 122 are arranged spirally along the top of the inner end of the inner ring wall 121, so that the ejected gas forms a vortex airflow. This makes the mixture with air more complete, the combustion more complete, reduces gas waste, improves thermal efficiency, and reduces the emission of harmful gases such as carbon monoxide.
[0043] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1-7 The inner ring wall 121 shown includes a first inclined section 1211, a second inclined section 1212, and a vertical section 1213 connected sequentially from the outside to the inside. The included angle between the first inclined section 1211 and the vertical section 1213 is smaller than the included angle between the second inclined section 1212 and the vertical section 1213. The first inclined section 1211 has multiple air vents 122. Figure 2-5 As shown, multiple air outlets 122 are evenly distributed along the first inclined section 1211. The first inclined section 1211 is designed at an angle to guide the airflow into a swirling flow, increasing mixing efficiency, reducing incomplete combustion, and improving combustion efficiency and flame stability. The different angles of the first inclined section 1211 and the second inclined section 1212 can control the airflow direction, reduce interference from external airflows such as natural wind or kitchen exhaust to the flame, optimize the flame shape, reduce ineffective heat diffusion to the surroundings, and improve the thermal efficiency of the burner.
