Brunner's glands (or duodenal glands) are compound tubular submucosal glands found in that portion of the duodenum which is above the hepatopancreatic sphincter (a.k.a. sphincter of Oddi). The main function of these glands is to produce a mucus-rich alkaline secretion i.e. Mucous (containing bicarbonate) in order to:
protect the duodenum from the acidic content of chyme (which is introduced into the duodenum from the stomach);
provide an alkaline condition for the intestinal enzymes to be active, thus enabling absorption to take place;
lubricate the intestinal walls.

The reason behind you are not feeling the burning sensation in your stomach despite of HCL presence is just because of the Mucous secretion.
Mucous is secreted at the gastric pits and enters the stomach to form a protective cover over the walls of the stomach. Mucous are mostly made of bicarbonate ions that has the ability to act against the gastric juice like HCL.
The mucous that you swallow becomes a protective chemical barrier in your stomach to protect you from HCL and its burning sensation.
