US Patent:

Filed:
Oct 28, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/967807
Inventors:
Dennis V. Hefling - Wichita KS
Matthew S. Copeland - Wichita KS
Assignee:
The Coleman Company, Inc. - Wichita KS
International Classification:

Abstract:
A burner appliance includes a burner assembly, a separate fuel tank, and a tube connecting the fuel tank and the burner assembly. A restrictor rod is positioned within the tube for minimizing fuel surge, enhancing generation of vaporized fuel, and reducing flame pulsation. The restrictor rod is part of a sealing valve which provides secondary shut-off of fuel in the event that the tube is disconnected from the burner assembly.
