GAS FURNACE AND AIR CONDITIONER HAVING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17978536 titled 'GAS FURNACE AND AIR CONDITIONER HAVING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a gas furnace and air conditioner system that includes a fuel valve, burners, heat exchangers, and a blower. The system also includes a manifold with multiple tubes and a three-way valve.

  • The gas furnace and air conditioner system includes a fuel valve, burners, heat exchangers, and a blower.
  • The manifold in the system consists of multiple tubes and a three-way valve.
  • The first tube is connected to the fuel valve and forms a passage for fuel.
  • The second tube extends in one direction and faces at least one of the burners.
  • The third tube also extends in one direction and faces the remaining burners.
  • The three-way valve is connected to the first, second, and third tubes.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Residential heating and cooling systems
  • Commercial heating and cooling systems
  • Industrial heating and cooling systems

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient and controlled fuel flow in the gas furnace
  • Proper distribution of fuel to the burners
  • Effective combustion gas passage through the heat exchangers

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved energy efficiency
  • Enhanced heating and cooling performance
  • Reduced fuel consumption
  • Increased durability and reliability of the system


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed are a gas furnace and an air conditioner having the same. The gas furnace includes: a fuel valve; a manifold providing a passage of fuel passing through the fuel valve; a plurality of burners provided to burn fuel provided from the manifold and spaced apart from each other in one direction; a plurality of heat exchangers providing a passage of combustion gas generated by the plurality of burners; and a blower for causing a flow of air passing around the heat exchanger. The manifold includes: a first tube having one end connected to the fuel valve and forming a first passage; a second tube extending in the one direction, forming a second passage, and facing at least one of the plurality of burners; a third tube extending in the one direction, forming a third passage, and facing remaining burners of the plurality of burners; and a three-way valve connected to the first tube, the second tube, and the third tube.
