Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
97 words
A gas burner structure for a gas range top, said structure comprising a plate portion received by said range top, a plurality of depressions in said plate portion, a plurality of upright portions having downwardly extending portions snugly received by Said depressions, a chamber below said plate portion, passage means extending from said chamber into said upright portions and passing outwardly therethrough, means for introducing a combustible gaseous medium to said chamber and for directing said combustible medium through said passage means, and means for igniting said combustible medium as it passes outwardly from said upright portions.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
97 words
A gas burner structure for a gas range top, said structure comprising a plate portion received by said range top, a plurality of depressions in said plate portion, a plurality of upright portions having downwardly extending portions snugly received by Said depressions, a chamber below said plate portion, passage means extending from said chamber into said upright portions and passing outwardly therethrough, means for introducing a combustible gaseous medium to said chamber and for directing said combustible medium through said passage means, and means for igniting said combustible medium as it passes outwardly from said upright portions.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
32 words
The structure of claim 1 wherein cooperating means are provided on said plate portion and on said upright portions for aligning said upright portions at a desired orientation, relative to each other.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
39 words
The structure of claim 1 wherein said upright portions define upper surfaces, all at substantially the same level, and said passage means extends outwardly from said upright portions to a location between said upper surfaces and said plate portion.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
19 words
The apparatus of claim 3 wherein said plate portion is substantially at the level of said gas range top.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
30 words
The structure of claim 1 wherein said passage means comprise upright apertures in said upright portions and lateral openings in said upright portions in direct communication with said upright apertures.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
71 words
The structure of claim 1 wherein said passage means comprise upright apertures in said upright portions, an outer wall on said upright portions, and elongated transverse apertures in said outer wall for communication with said upright apertures, said upright portions being sufficiently close together so that ignition of said combustible medium at one of said elongated apertures ignites the said combustible medium at an elongated transverse aperture adjacent said upright portions.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
122 words
A gas burner structure for a gas range top, said structure comprising a plate portion received by said range top, a plurality of upright portions on said plate portion, a chamber below said plate portion, passage means extending from said chamber into said upright portions and passing outwardly therethrough, a gas manifold extending into said chamber, a fan projecting air into said chamber and through said passage means while intermixing said air with said gas, and means for igniting said air and gas mixture as it passes outwardly from said upright portions, said igniting means including electrical coil in said passage means capable of being heated to a temperature at least equal to the ignition temperature of the said gas air mixture.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
