JOHN HENRY STEINER, OF READING, ASSIGNOR TO HIMSELF AND CHRISTIAN SHARPS, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN CARBURETTNG ATTACHMENTS FOR GAS-BURNERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 108,814, dated November 1,1870.
I, J OHN HENRY STEINER, of the city ofRead- 1n g, county of Berks, State of Pennsylvania, have invented an Attachment for Gas-Burners,
of which the following is a specification:
Nature and Object of the Invention.
Description of the Accompanying Dru-icing.
Figure 1 is a sectional view of my attachment for gas-burners; Fig. 2, a sectional plan on the line 1 2, Fig. 1; and Fig. 3, a view of part of Fig. 1, showing the method of connectin g the attachment to an ordinary gas-tip.
General Description.
The attachment or carbureter consists, main- 1y, of a sheet-metal casin g or reservoir, A, surburner proper.
At the bottom of the casing A, and extending into the interior of the same, is a tube, a, which is made slightly tapering, as best observed in Fig. 8, so that it may be adapted to and fitted accurately and tightly over the tapering end of an ordinary gas-tip, O.
The interior of the casingAis divided by a curved partition or diaphragm, b, into upper and lower compartments, e and f, communicating with each other through perforations or slits h, formed at or near the edge of the diaphragm, and the upper of these compartments communicating directly with the interior of the burner B.
The lower compartment, f, of the casing, which is of greater capacity than the compartment 0, is filled with wool, cotton, or equiva lent absorbing material, and communicates freely with the interior of the tube a through the perforations formed at the top of the latter beneath its cap or disk i.
In preparing the attachment for use it is disconnected from the gas-tip O and inverted, a quantity of gasoline or naphtha being then poured into the tube a and sufl'ered to pass through the perforations of the same until the wool or cotton contained in the compartment f is completely saturated. Theattachment is then turned to its former upright position and fitted tightly to the gas-tip 0, when it is ready for use.
When the gas is turned onto the tip 0 it will pass upward into the tube a, and thence-- through the perforations of the latter into the compartment f of the reservoir, the arrange-: ment of the overhanging disk c at the top of.
the tube being such as to prevent the gas from rising directly toward the diaphragm, but
causing it to pass horizontally in all directions, as indicated by the arrows, into and through the mass of saturated cotton or wool.
The gas thus diflused becomes combined or intimately mixed with the vapor of the gasoline or naphtha, and is thus enriched, it escaping finally through the perforated diaphragm into the upper compartment or reservoir, 0, and being thence fed directly to the burner 13-,
the result of this mixing of the gas and vapor being a considerable increase in the volume and brilliancy of the flame. The pressure of the gas from the tip 0 will be sufficient to cause it to pass freely through the burner, and to effect the above-described mixing of vapor with the same; but as soon as the gas is turned off and this pressure removed there will be no objectionable tendency I of the vapor to escape from. the tip B;
One of the principal advantages of my invention is, that it is complete in itself, and can be entirely detached from the gas-tip, so that the latter may be used independently, if de sired.
Another advantagqarising from the fact that the gas and vapor are mixed within the burner, and close to the point of and immediately before ignition, is that no opportunity is afforded for the formation of tarry deposits,
which clog and interfere-with the operation of apparatus in which gas and vapor are mixed at a distance from the burner.
Claims. 1. A rcsermir, A, surmounted by a burner,
B, and having a tube, a, for tight attachment In testimony whereof I have signed my to and detachment from n gas-tip,a-l1 snbstanname to this specification in the presence of tially as set forth. two subscribing Witnesses.
2. The arrangement within the said reservoir of a perforated or notched diaphragm, 11, JOHN HENRY STEINER. substantially as described.
3. The nrran gement of the disk 0' on the up Witnesses: per notched or perforated edge of the tube a, S. M. HOLLENBUSH,
as set forth. W'M. B. SOHOENER.
