ABSTRACT:
A gas surface range having modular burner cartridges and a down draft ventilation system. The cartridges can be removed for repairing, cleaning, or changing the range top configuration. For example, one cartridge type may include tubular burners and an igniter mounted in a pan so that a grill may be positioned thereover to form a grilling surface. A second cartridge type may include conventional top surface burners and an igniter mounted in a pan. Each range compartment into which the cartridges insert have two orifice hoods and an electrical connector rigidly secured therein. The positioning of an inserted cartridge is such that the mixer heads of the burners align with the respective orifice hoods and a rigid conductor of the igniter makes electrical contact with the connector. The connector also has a second terminal for providing an electrical return for the igniter. One type of cartridge also includes an extending post which permits it to only be inserted in one particular compartment. Furthermore, its presence there is sensed so that activation of either burner automatically causes the down draft system to operate.
