Abstract

The premixing device includes a first and a second venturi having a pressure reducing portion for air, and a gas supply passage for supplying fuel gas to the venturis, and generates air-fuel mixture by mixing fuel gas with air flowing in the venturi by using a fan and supplies the air-fuel mixture to a burner. A first and a second nozzles for reducing pressure of fuel gas are disposed in the gas supply passage, and the first and the second nozzles are formed in the same nozzle shape as the pressure reducing portion of the first and the second venturis.

Claims (25)

1. A premixing device comprising:

a venturi having a pressure reducing portion for air; and

a gas supply passage configured to supply fuel gas to the venturi, wherein

air-fuel mixture is generated by fuel gas being mixed with air flowing in the venturi by using a fan and is supplied to a burner,

the gas supply passage includes a gas passage and a straight path,

the straight path has a columnar shape,

the gas passage is connected to the straight path, and

a gas pressure reducing portion for reducing pressure of fuel gas is disposed at the front portion of the straight path of the gas supply passage such that the gas pressure reducing portion and gas supply passage form the straight path with an increasing diameter, and the gas pressure reducing portion is formed in a same shape as the pressure reducing portion in the venturi, and

wherein the gas pressure reducing portion is formed such that a separate nozzle plate having a nozzle shape is detachably mounted onto the gas supply passage.

2. The premixing device according to claim 1 , wherein the pressure reducing portion and the gas pressure reducing portion each have a nozzle shape.

3. The premixing device according to claim 2 , wherein the nozzle shape includes a narrowing portion that narrows a flow passage, and a reduction portion that reduces the flow passage from a side upstream of the narrowing portion toward the narrowing portion so as to form a curved surface.

4. A combustion device comprising:

the premixing device according to claim 1 ;

a fan configured to allow air to flow in the venturi of the premixing device; and

a burner to which air-fuel mixture generated by the premixing device is supplied.

5. A premixing device comprising:

a venturi having a pressure reducing portion for air; and

a gas supply passage configured to supply fuel gas to the venturi, wherein

air-fuel mixture is generated by fuel gas being mixed with air flowing in the venturi by using a fan and is supplied to a burner,

the gas supply passage includes a gas passage and a straight path,

the straight path has a columnar shape,

the gas passage is connected to the straight path, and

a gas pressure reducing portion for reducing pressure of fuel gas is disposed at the front portion of the straight path of the gas supply passage such that the gas pressure reducing portion and gas supply passage form the straight path with an increasing diameter, and the gas pressure reducing portion is formed in a same shape as the pressure reducing portion in the venturi, and

wherein the gas pressure reducing portion is formed such that a separate nozzle plate having a nozzle shape is detachably mounted onto the gas supply passage, and

wherein the gas supply passage is at an upstream side of the straight path, and wherein a downstream side of the straight path is connected to the pressure reducing portion of the venturi.
