A burner for depositing carbon soot on a glassware mold includes a burner nozzle having an annular array of individual gas outlet ports, a fuel passage within the nozzle connected to a first plurality of the outlet ports and an oxidant passage in the nozzle connected to a second plurality of the outlet ports. The first plurality of outlet ports individually alternate with the second plurality of outlet ports around the annular array such that the array presents alternate fuel and oxidant outlet ports around the array. An ignition electrode is disposed on the burner nozzle within the annular array of outlet ports for igniting fuel and oxidant emerging from the outlet ports. The ignition electrode preferably is in the form of an elongated ignition electrode rod telescopically surrounded by an insulator and centered on the burner nozzle within the annular array of outlet ports, and a ground electrode telescopically surrounding the insulator. The ground electrode preferably is part of the burner nozzle and is electrically connected to a burner mounting block on which the burner nozzle is mounted.

An adjustable burner kit for a grill includes an adjustable burner having a burner end telescopically received on a burner inlet. The adjustable burner defines a passageway for receiving gas. The burner inlet has a proximal end for receiving a gas valve. The burner end has a proximal end adjacent to the distal end of the burner inlet. The burner end defines a mounting member on its distal end. The mounting member includes a flat section that defines a cutout for receiving a mounting screw. An optional mount piece may be provided for engaging the mounting member to provide an alternatively oriented mounting interface. The adjustable burner has an adjustable length.

In certain embodiments, an apparatus includes a burner. The apparatus can also include an intake valve that includes an input for receiving fuel from either a first fuel source at a first pressure or a second fuel source at a second pressure. The intake valve can include a first output for directing fuel received from the first fuel source and a second output for directing fuel received from the second fuel source. The intake valve can include an actuator configured to permit fluid communication between the input and the first output or between the input and the second output. The apparatus can include a pressure regulator that can include a first inlet for receiving fuel from the first output of the intake valve and a second inlet for receiving fuel from the second output of the intake valve. The regulator can also include an outlet for directing fuel from the pressure regulator toward the burner.

A utility lighter includes a handle casing, a gas releasing valve, a bendable extension arm, a torch nozzle, a piezoelectric unit and an actuation device. The bendable extension arm has an upper end and a lower end extended from the handle casing, wherein the extension arm has a deformable receiving channel which is extended from the lower end to the upper end and is adapted to be curved when the extension arm is selectively bent between the upper end and the lower end. The torch nozzle is provided at the upper end of the extension arm to communicate with the gas releasing valve through the receiving channel for releasing the gas through the torch nozzle when the actuation device is actuated to depress the piezoelectric unit. The result is that a torch flame is generated at the torch nozzle at a distance from the handle casing.

A system is presented for an improved igniter and an igniter bobbin for a high voltage burner igniter that reduces parts count and simplifies assembly of the igniter used in fuel based burners for boilers, forced air furnaces and water heaters. In one aspect of the invention, the igniter bobbin of the present invention comprises two high voltage insulators and a coil bobbin of a high voltage transformer molded or otherwise integrated together into a single monolithic structure. In another aspect, the igniter bobbin may be molded from an insulative material to form the single monolithic structure that insulates the high voltage electrodes which are inserted within the high voltage insulators portion of the structure, and to insulate the primary and secondary coils that are wound onto the coil bobbin portion of the structure.

A gas-fired fireplace is provided with a structure for supporting an artificial log which encourages users to place artificial logs in positions over the gas burner which provide a wind shadow over the burner and which reduces the prospects that the flame of the burner will be extinguished by wind. The burner of the fireplace is also provided with an igniter positioned adjacent gas openings in the burner and shielded by a hood and by side flanges from the wind to also reduce the prospects that the flame of the burner will be extinguished by wind.

A hot wire igniter for igniting a gas appliance is disclosed. The coil of the hot wire igniter is formed from a thin high temperature, iron, chromium, aluminum alloy having a center section that is tightly wound. Alternatively, the coil can be formed from an alloy of platinum and iridium, or a similar high temperature metal alloy. The coil turns initially do not touch one another and each end of the coil is welded to a lead-in rod that is received within an insulator member. The lead-in rods are connected to a power source. The coil portion of the hot wire igniter is received within a gas collector box which is attached to the burner to be ignited. Application of the voltage source to the lead-in rods causes the coil of wire to reach a temperature in excess of the ignition temperature of the gas-air mixture which surrounds same causing the ignition of the mixture.

In a burner igniter using a ceramic heater, the resistance of the ceramic heater is detected to perform feedback control so that the temperature of the heater is maintained substantially constant to prevent both misfiring and overheating, while rapid temperature rise can also be obtained. The resistance value detected by a bridge circuit is fed to a proportional-integral controller which produces a control signal, while the current fed to the ceramic heater is also detected. The control signal and another signal indicative of the current to the ceramic heater are used to control a power source of the ceramic heater so that the current to the ceramic heater is controlled. A monitoring circuit responsive to both the resistance of the ceramic heater and the current fed to the ceramic heater may be added to warn a user that the life of the ceramic heater will soon end. The ceramic heater may comprise a portion having negative temperature coefficient, through which portion leak current would flow when the temperature of the ceramic heater rises so as to prevent overheating.

A pilot assembly includes a base having a cylindrical side wall which holds an electrode subassembly and glass preforms in place for fusing the glass to secure the electrode subassembly to the base. Prior to fusing, a spark electrode is assembled by inserting it into a metal clip receptacle held in a ceramic insulator body forming a part of the electrode subassembly. A pilot tip and orifice subassembly are secured to the base. Fusion of the glass and brazing of the metal including the high tension clip to bring it to spring temper for connection to a plugged wire are accomplished in a single step of heating. The pilot tip includes a locator member which holds the spark electrode in place during fusing and establishes the spark gap. It is removed after fusing. A connecting flange of a bracket is then positioned relative to the side wall of the base to achieve a desired angular disposition, axial orientation and height adjustment of the base relative to the bracket; and the bracket is welded to the side wall of the base. Thus, the same structural elements can be used for many different models of a gas pilot assembly without the need for special parts or process steps for manufacture.
