CHRISTIAN G. SPENGLER, OF HOBOKEN, 'NEW JERSEY.
IMPROVEMENT IN VAPOR-BURNERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 202,066, dated April?, 1878; application led v February 26, 1878.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHRISTIAN G. SPENG- LER, of Hoboken, in the county. of Hudson, and in the State of New Jersey, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Hydrocarbon-Vapor Burners, which improvement ,is
fully set forth in the following specication, reference beinghad to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l isa vertical central section. Fig. 2 is a section in the plane w, Fig. l. Fig. 3 is an enlarged section on the same line as Fig. l, omitting the oil-fountain.
l Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.
This improvement consists in the combination, with an oil-fountain, of a gas-burner supported by a pipewhich extends through the fountain, a wick-tube secured in the mouth of the fountain and rising to a level with the gas-burner, or nearly so, and a deector resting on the top of the wick-tube, so that when the gas is lighted the oil which rises through the wick is evaporated, and the hydrocarbon vapors thus produced are thrown into the gasiiame by the deflector; also, in the combination, with an oil-fountainand gas-burner, of a shield which rests on the deiiector, and extends downward and protects the wick-tube against the cooling influence of the atmosphere.
In the drawings, the letterA designates an oil-fountain. B is a gas-pipe, which passes through the fountain; This gas-pipe supports a burner, C.
To the mouth of the oil-fountain A is attached a wick-tube, D, which rises to a level with the burner C, or nearly so, and thus an annular space is formed about the burner C, which allows a Wick to be introduced into the oil-fountain.
When the gas is lighted the burner C becomes heated, and the oil which has been absorbed by and has risen through the wick is converted into a hydrocarbon vapor. To insure burning of this vapor I provide a deflector, E, which is placed on the top of the wick-tube D, and said deilector, being bent into a form like that shown in Fig. l, throws the hydrocarbon vapors into the gas-flame,
and thus causes them to be fully consumed.
In order that the wick-tube D and deiiectorE may not become cooled by the outer air, and so condense part of the vapor, Iprovide a shield, F, which extends downward. This shield keeps off the air from thel wick-tube D and deiiector E, and thus none of the hydrocarbon vapor is lost.
In order that the oil-fountain may be easily Iilled, I provide a ller, Gr. This iiller consists of a glass tube closed by a stopper or cork of any desired material.
The object of makingthe filler of glass is, that the person filling in the oil can tell when the fountain is filled to the desired height.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The combination, 'with an oil-fountain, of a gas-burner supported by a pipe which extends through the fountain, a wick-tube, D,
secured in the mouth of the fountain and risl 2. The combination, with an oil-fountain, a
gas-burner, and a wick-tube surrounding said gas-burner, of a shield, F, which rests on the deliector E, extends downward, and protects' the wick-tube against the cooling influence of the air, all combined substantially as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the nforegoing I have hereunto set my hand and seal this 25th day of February, 1878.
