Abstract
The device is a metal coil, formed of high conductive material, and designed to fit on the pilot light thermocouple of gas fired appliances. Its purpose is to extend the sensitivity of the thermocouple, thus precluding erroneous gas shut off when air currents drift the pilot flame away from the thermocouple tube. This is accomplished by forming a heat gathering ring completely around the pilot flame and transmitting the heat directly to the thermocouple by conduction.
