Abstract

An improved vaporized liquid fuel combustion apparatus of the type including a cylindrical combustion chamber, a blower, and end plate located between the combustion chamber and the blower and a heat exchanger for heating air by utilizing thermal energy generated in the combustion chamber is disclosed. The combustion chamber, the blower, the end plate and the heat exchanger are separable components and the blower and the heat exchanger are firmly assembled together by tightening bolts at a single flange connection with the end of the combustion chamber making gastight contact with the peripheral end part of the end plate. The one end part of the combustion chamber, the peripheral end part of the end plate are formed and the one end part of the heat exchanger are formed to mate together. Both the one end part of the combustion chamber and the peripheral end part of the end plate are formed with a plurality of holes through which bolts are inserted and the one end part of the heat exchanger is formed with a plurality of female thread holes into which the bolts are threadably engaged.
