Abstract

A gas burner element includes a diffusion chamber and a plurality of burner arms extending from the chamber, the chamber and the arms having a plurality of holes for flowing gas therethrough. A support member is received in the underside of each of the arms for adjustably mounting the element in a spaced relationship from a burner kettle and for maintaining the relationship when mounting is complete. Each support member includes an upper, generally vertical shaft threadably engaged to its associated arm and a lower foot portion disposed radially to the shaft. The spaced relationship between the burner kettle and the burner element are adjustable by rotating the support member in one direction or another, thereby extending or retracting a support member with respect to its related burner arm.
