Abstract
A gas burner assembly includes in one embodiment a top plate having at least one port for discharging fuel and a downwardly-depending, peripheral edge having a plurality of spaced-apart slots, and a bottom base having a peripheral edge disposed within the downwardly-depending peripheral edge of the top plate. A gasket is disposed between the base and the plate. A venturi tube is attached to the base with a tube holder. The plate is attachable to the base by displacing and/or expanding a portion of the downwardly-depending, peripheral edge adjacent the slots to form a plurality of spaced-apart, inwardly-extending tabs disposed under the peripheral edge of the base. Methods for assembling and gas fired appliances employing gas burner assemblies are also disclosed. Further, attachment means and methods for attaching a first member to a second member using such displaceable and/or expandable tabs are also disclosed.
