F-igY-Q-isasimilar view showing the position of the parts when in condition for theintroduction of liquid, and
Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 1 of a modification.
' We are aware of the fact that, particularly in the feeding of fueloil to burners, there are two types'of feeders. In one of these,
called the gravity type, the tank is arranged thereof;
ating condition feeding liquid to the point right'fs'ide' up provided float needle valve/ for controlling thefeed fl'ev'el; This-va1vebesides involving, considerable mechanis1n, is*liableto clog from impurities and cause dangerous overflow; In the other type the tank is'j filled and-:theninverted and thengof course, in order to refill it it has to be taken oil andinverted' again; 'Thisfis-a o pl c ed and dangerous operation. We
have I used the desirable I features of both kinds' f and eliminated the 1 disadvantages 'Refe'rring to that thereis a baseor support. lO having at the top-adistributing cup 11 which "is open tothe air at theftopfand discharges normally and constantly, according to the deinands, through a pipe 12 to an oil burner or the like.
Figs: 1 and-2 itwillbe seen i The-purpose of therest ofthe' device is to keep the oil up to thedesired level in this clip so the 'cup will always feed whenever there is'a demand and in accordance with the demand, The' supply tank 18 is provided with conical'b-ottom 14: having a-dep'ression '15 the center and'the' side wall-'16 pro-* jects down beyondgthe-bo'ttom 14, which'latter rests on the top of the cup 11. By this construction the tank 13 iskeptcentered and the weightiof the oil in itholds it down in proper: position and the cup' ll andtank 13 appear substantially as one element and practioally never have to be separatedinuse Also the tank can be liftedofi? and put down. on a except for cleansing or repairs.

This tank is provided with a filling cup 17 at the top which communicates with thefinterior-ofthetank througha central'ztube 18 having a'receivingcup19 atithe top and open at the bottom in the depression 15; Obviously when oil is poured into, the receiving 01119117",v i
there isnothingi whatever .to interferewith its quiet and even flow; into the interior of the tankrl 1 D i ln orderfto prevent the rush of oil out of the tube 18 and into the cup ,l'l'througha port 20, a valve'21 for-this port is mountedonia valvelstem '22 whichisprovided with a collar 23. Between the collar 23 and. the-bottomof cup 15 is'arrangeda coil spring 24. which would normally holdthe valve 21 closed and prevent all I feeding. However, this valve stem 22 is provided witha t'oparm 25 which is engaged by a bracket 26 on the cover 27 of thereceiving tank and held down when the cover 2'1 is" closed, as will beseen bycomparison of Figs 'l and 2. The valve stem is filling the spring 2-t immediately closes the valve 21,',as shown in Fig.2, andthefi-lling' can be-accompli'shed withoutintroducing anyu. I

This pipe 28 serves forcOI flllctingthe air when filling the tanlrandv acts as a check valve. Excessive flow ofthe liquid through the port 20 is pre+ ventedbythe formation of a partial vacuum by any drop of the level of liquid in the tank a '13. Thefport 20 allows air to. bubble up through the liquid. to; provide for normal feeding; ,The level inwthecup llfis kept con- I stant andeven with thebottomof the tubel8 slightlyfabom the level of the bottom ofthcp p cz -p cf V i In the form shown'inFigL 3- the situation is; substantially the same except that there is I no valve 121.. I In place of itthere areports inlthe: depression-at the center of the bottonr-l-ihiand thereis.v a PlateBl connected to the bottom bya-screw 3 2; and'spaced ,ifrom it and; carrying a wiclring 3.3 or packing which permits only slow seepage of thejoiltherethrough. .No, valve :is required in this case prevents foreign substances getting intothe but the; wick, or packing has to beselected with: particular reference to the characteristicsgof the particular liquid being use This packing restricts the'fl'ow under the momentary high pressure during the =fillingop eration' but is not sufliciently, impenetrablefto p re'iventithenormal low consumption rate of 7 news This packing also acts as a filter and cup.

' Although we have illustrated and'dcscribed only two forms of the invention,,we.are, aware of the fact 7 that other modifications can be made therein by any'person skilled in the art without departing from the, scope of" the in; vention as expressed in; the claims.
' Therefore, we do. not wish to be limited in this respect but what we do claim is 1. In a storage and supply device for liqi flange extending down around the cup to center it, the bottom. of said tank being-depressed and havinga discharge port, a. valve belo'w'j said portrfor normally closing it, a valve stem' extending upwardly through the storage tanl'q'a spring on-thevalve stem resting on inga receivingcu at the top into which the rounding said valve stem and open, at the.bot; -f tom, and. a cover attheitop ofthe; receiving cup having a bracket thereon which, when the 11. i
