Abstract
An assembly for an electric igniter used principally for the ignition of gaseous fuels includes a mechanical holder and shield for conveniently mounting the igniter in a gas appliance, for example, and for protecting the same from damage. The holder is preferably ceramic and includes a bore within which the igniter is supported and through which electrical leads and terminal tabs extend, and the shield, which surrounds at least substantially all of the high temperature end of the igniter, is attached to the ceramic holder in a facile manner and provides sufficient open passages for effective heat transfer from the igniter to effect ignition of a fuel discharged proximate thereto.
