Check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_of_Burgundy - Wikipedia - Kings of Burgundy (not a great link though).

It had the following periods:

The original Burgundian kingdom (till 532)
Frankish domain (534-855)
Independence as two separated realms (855-933)
Unification (933-1032)
Incorporation to the Horly Roman Empire (1032-1250)

After 1250 nobody uses the title of King of Burgundy: the territory was then too fragmented.
