Gas burner
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional fish burners have limited thermal power and suboptimal heat distribution, particularly in the central part of the pan, which hampers efficient cooking, especially for grilling meat.
Innovation Solution
The gas burner features an elongated base and lid with a dual flame system, where the second internal group of flames emerges from doors formed in the internal walls of the base and lid, increasing the heating power and improving heat distribution across the bottom of the pan.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Power
If a traditional single-ring flame design is used, then the burner structure is simple, but the thermal power is limited and heat distribution is suboptimal
Solution Approach 1:
The burner is divided into multiple functional zones with separate flame groups: an external ring flame for outer heating and internal flames for central heating. This segmentation allows each zone to independently contribute to thermal power while optimizing heat distribution across different pan areas, resolving the contradiction between simple structure and high performance.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from a two-dimensional external ring flame to a three-dimensional dual-layer flame structure by adding internal flames beneath the base. This dimensional expansion enables heat generation from multiple spatial levels, significantly increasing thermal power without proportionally increasing structural complexity.
2Temperature
If only an external ring of flame is provided, then the burner structure is simple, but heat distribution in the central part of the pan is non-optimal
Solution Approach 1:
Different flame groups are positioned to address specific heating needs: external ring flames target the peripheral areas of the pan while internal flames concentrate heat in the central region. This local quality differentiation ensures optimal temperature distribution across the entire pan surface, particularly improving central area heating for grilling applications.

Function Achieved in This Case
This design enhances cooking efficiency by providing higher thermal power and more uniform heat distribution, allowing for faster and better grilling of dishes, while maintaining ease of assembly and aesthetic appeal.
Implementation Method 1
a coaxial vertical axis venturi duct facing the injector mounted on the injector(s) holder
Implementation Method 2
a plurality of main and/or secondary doors are obtained for the generation of a ring of flames suitable for heating the pan placed above the burner itself

AI summary
A gas burner for a hob includes: an injector holder, a base that can be positioned on the injector holder, a lid that can be positioned on the base. The lid, the base and the injector holder are superposed along a direction. The injector holder includes: at least one injector arranged so as to be aligned substantially along the Z direction, at least one concave support body which internally delimits a cavity in which a corresponding injector is mounted, and one and only gas inlet which is in fluid communication with said at least one injector. The base and the lid have a substantially elongated shape along an X direction, the extension along the X direction being greater than the extension along a Y direction where the X and Y directions are perpendicular both to each other and to the Z-direction.
