Abstract
A gas collector electrode assembly that can be easily assembled and/or disassembled is disclosed. The bottom wall of the gas collector includes two apertures connected by an elongated slot. The first aperture is sized to receive the end of the spark electrode assembly and the second aperture is sized to grippingly engage a circumferential groove on the spark electrode assembly adjacent its end. A tab portion is provided in the bottom wall of the gas collector adjacent the second aperture therein. By inserting the end of the spark electrode assembly into the first aperture and then by depressing the tab portion while laterally moving the spark electrode assembly into the second aperture, the tab portion can then spring back to its original position and grippingly engage the spark electrode assembly firmly attaching same to the gas collector. Disassembly of the spark electrode assembly from the gas collector is accomplished by depressing the tab portion and by laterally moving the spark electrode assembly from the second aperture into the first aperture permitting its withdrawal from the gas collector.
