Waste gas flare igniter
Patent
·
OSTI ID:6802471
A waste gas flare igniter includes a pair of ignition tubes, each having a fuel line and an electrode extending therethrough to points near the ends of the tubes. The tubes are connected to an air distribution box which is slidably mounted on linear guides. A jackscrew and motor translate the air box and tubes between an extended position wherein the tubes connect with inwardly directed extensions passing through a heat shield at the end of the flare pipe for ignition of the waste gas and a retracted position spacing the tubes from the heat shield. The air box is connected by a telescoping duct to a blower, and the fuel line to a valve and pump to provide a fuel-air mixture which is ignited when the tubes are extended to ignite the waste gas.
