    摘要: A thermally controlled damper construction for a gas fired combustion apparatus, such as a furnace. The damper has a generally eliptical shape and is mounted on a shaft in the stack or flue for pivotal movement from a closed position, where the damper is located at an angle of approximately 45.degree. with respect to the axis of the stack, to a full open position. One edge of the damper is recessed to provide a vent opening between the damper and the stack and permit venting of gases generated by operation of the pilot light during periods when the furnace is not operating. The damper is moved between the closed and open positions by a bi-metallic element which is located upstream of the damper and connected to the damper by a linkage. When the furnace is operated, the increase in flue temperature will operate the bi-metallic element to move the damper to the open position. A temperature responsive safety switch is located upstream of the damper adjacent the vent opening and is operably connected to the gas supply of the furnace. In the event the damper does not open when the furnace is operated, the safety switch will shut off the gas supply to the furnace.

    摘要: A damper assembly constructed to close a flue pipe for a burner during non-use of the burner and to automatically open prior to burner ignition. An actuator operated by a thermo-statically controlled heater and an expansible fluid, rotates a baffle of the damper assembly to open the flue pipe. A safety interlock requires the baffle to be opened before the burner is ignited. When the burner is turned off, the actuator delays closing of the baffle for a time to allow exhausting of residual combustion products. In one embodiment, two baffles are operated to close a flue pipe above and below a draft diverter.

    摘要: There is disclosed an improved flue box assembly which consists of a housing formed by a continuous sidewall, a top wall and a bottom wall, each of the top wall and bottom wall having an aperture disposed therein, the interior diametric sizing of the housing being substantially greater than both the top wall and bottom wall apertures, and the housing including a damper plate pivotally mounted interioraly thereof and spaced between the top and bottom wall respectively, the damper plate further including a flue opening having a diametric sizing substantially smaller than the top and bottom wall apertures, and the damper plate being constructed and accommodated to be movable between an open position and a closed position, such that when the damper plate is in the closed position, the flue opening is interposed between the top wall aperture and the bottom wall aperture and insures a maximum burning of the fuel in the corresponding furnace, while alternatively, under back pressures or an explosion condition, the damper plate is permitted to move into the full open position and expose the substantially greater diametric sizing of the flue box in order to permit an efficient emission of flue gases from the furnace. The relationship between the various size openings as between the top and bottom wall apertures, the interior diametric sizing of the housing, and the flue opening in the damper plate insures substantially complete combustion of the fuels in the furnace while at the same time accommodating the requirement for a quick, safe and efficient exhaust of flue gases under back pressure or explosive conditions. SUBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONIt has become increasingly important to provide the means whereby the various types of fuel presently in existence are conserved to the maximum extent. For example, it has become increasingly known that fuels such as natural gas, oil and the like must be conserved if the current global supply is to provide the needs of the world until alternate sources of fuel or energy sources can be developed. In this connection, various types of devices have been innovated in the last several years with a view toward conserving our natural fuels.It is now known that the efficiency of various heating plants such as home furnaces and the like, has not been too great for the reason that often, the fuels are not sufficiently burned in the combustion chamber, and hence, the flue waste gases include a fairly large percentage of unburned fuel such as natural gas. It has, therefore, been deemed desirable to develop devices which will retain the natural gases in the combustion chamber or furnace until virtually all of the fuel is combusted such that the flue gases which escape from the furnace are virtually completely waste gases.Over the years, various types of devices have been developed which have come to accomplish this end, and in fact, it is believed that various of these devices do in fact accomplish this desired end. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 1,196,117 illustrates a damper plate which is employed in the exhaust line of a furnace which consists of a pivotally mounted plate which seats over a sheet metal exhaust tube and is intended to retain the bulk of the exhaust or waste gases within the furnace assembly until they are combusted. It will be noted in connection with this disclosure, that the external perimeter of the sheet metal waste pipe is provided with a plurality of circumferentially disposed recesses in order to permit the escape of some of the flue gases during combustion, while the damper plates insures that the bulk of the gases will remain in the furnace until fully combusted. Similar types of devices are shown in U.S. Pat. No. 1,580,106 which again shows a damper plate which is apertured to permit the exhaust of some of the waste gases during the combustion process, as well as in U.S. Pat. No. 3,912,223, which again shows a pivotally mounted damper plate which closes off the exhaust pipe and retains the gases in the furnace until fully combusted.The difficulties which have been noted in connection with these types of devices is the fact that during any back pressure or explosive situation, it is necessary that means be provided for waste gases to exhaust themselves from the furnace immediately so that a destructive explosion in the furnace will not occur. It is for this reason that damper plates which are provided along the exhaust pathway of the tubing are providing in a pivotable or otherwise movable fashion. It is intended that during a back pressure or explosive situation, the pivotally mounted damper plate will move to a fully open position and permit the waste gases to be immediately exhaustable from the combustion chamber. The difficulty with the prior art devices is the fact that the diametric sizing of the exhaust pipe immediately above the damper plate has been virtually the same as or less than the diametric sizing of the exhaust pipe immediately below the damper plate. As a result, there is still a danger that the exhaust gases, during a back pressure or explosive situation, cannot be quickly exhausted through the waste pipe, and hence, the danger of an explosive situation with regard to the entire furnace is still present.OBJECTS AND ADVANTAGESIt is therefore the principal object of the present invention to provide an improved flue box assembly which may be installed in the pathway of the exhaust or waste conduit emanating from a furnace assembly, which will provide a movable damper plate which functions to retain the bulk of the gases within the furnace assembly to insure maximum combustion, while at the same time, being movable to an open position and providing an enlarged chamber during a back pressure or explosive situation such that the waste gases may be quickly and efficiently exhausted from the furnace thereby to minimize the danger of a destructive explosion.In accordance with the foregoing object, it is a further object of the invention to provide a flue box assembly which includes a housing formed by a continuous sidewall, top wall and bottom wall, with each of the top and bottom walls having an aperture, and including means to accommodate the inner connection to the apertures of an outlet and inlet conduit respectively, the housing having an overall interior diametric opening substantially greater than the diametric opening of either the inlet or the outlet apertures and conduit, and the housing further including damper means spaced a distance below the outlet aperture in the housing and movably positioned within the housing such that the damper means is movable between a closed position overlying the inlet aperture and an open position.Further to the above object, it is desirable to provide a damper means further including a flue opening sized to be diametrically smaller than each of the inlet and outlet apertures respectively such that the damper means functions to close off a substantial portion of the diametric opening within the housing when in the closed position, and to expose the substantially larger diametric opening of the housing relative to the inlet and outlet apertures respectively, when the damper means is positioned in the completely open position.In connection with the foregoing object, it is yet a further object of the invention to provide a flue box assembly of the type described wherein the housing is constructed to be interposed in the waste gas outlet emanating from a main furnace box, with the inlet aperture interconnected with the outlet conduit from the furnace, and the outlet aperture of the housing interconnected with an outlet conduit exhausting to atmosphere, wherein the housing assembly has a greater diametric sizing than the diametric sizing of the either the inlet or the outlet conduit connected thereto.Still a further object of the invention is to provide a flue box assembly of the type described wherein the damper means comprises a damper plate pivotally mounted to the interior of the housing on a sidewall portion thereof such that the damper plate is pivotally movable into a fully opened position under a back pressure condition, and into a closed position extending across the substantially diametric dimensions of the housing in order to substantially close the diametric opening within the housing with the exception of the area bounded by the flue opening contained in the damper plate.In connection with the foregoing object, it is a further object of the invention to provide a flue box assembly of the type described wherein the housing further includes a peripheral ledge mounted on the interior portions of the sidewall of the housing along a point approximately mid-position between the top and bottom wall portions thereof, and wherein the damper plate is arranged and constructed to rest on the peripheral ledge when in the closed position, the peripheral ledge functioning as a stop means for the damper plate when in the closed position.Still in connection with the foregoing objects, it is yet a further object of the invention to provide a flue box assembly of the type described wherein the area bounded by the damper plate at the lower end of the top wall at the upper end forms an emission chamber such that when the damper plate is in the closed position, the flue opening forms the inlet opening into the emission chamber and is of a smaller diametric sizing than the outlet aperture in the top wall, and when the damper plate is in the open position, the diametric opening of the housing forms the inlet opening into the emission chamber and is of a greater diametric sizing than the outlet aperture in the top wall, whereby the relationship of pressure and velocity of the waste gases emitted from the furnace during a back pressure or explosive occurrence is compenstated for to insure safe and efficient emission of waste gases when the damper plate is in the open position.Further features of the invention pertain to the particular arrangement of the elements and parts whereby the above-outlined and additional operating features thereof are attained.The invention, both as to its organization and method of operation, together with further objects and advantages thereof, will best be understood by reference to the following specification taken in connection with the accompanying.

    摘要: In the present invention, an automatic flue damper located in the vent stack of a household furnace or other apparatus requiring venting is interfaced with a thermostatic control and a fuel supply valve associated with the apparatus so as to maintain a vent passage to the atmosphere normally open during times when combustion is occurring in the apparatus and to close the vent passage at an appropriate time following the termination of combustion in the apparatus. The normally open vent condition is maintained by a damper positioning spring. Vent closure following combustion is accomplished by means of a direct current solenoid. Further included in the interfacing circuitry are a temperature sensing device effective to disable the solenoid, thus opening the vent, upon the appearance of unsafe stack temperatures and a pressure sensor which also disables the solenoid to open the vent stack upon the occurrence of an inappropriate discharge of fuel to the combustion chamber. The pressure sensor then also sounds an alarm to alert those nearby of the unauthorized escape of fuel.
