IMPROVEMENT IN C'ARBURETING APPARATUS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 220,685, dated October 14, 1879 application filed May 14, 1879.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JACOB WEART, of J ersey City, in the county of Hudson and State New Jersey, have invented a new and Improved Oarbureting Apparatus, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an air forcin g and carbureting apparatus for illuminating railway-cars, the same being constructed and arranged and operating as hereinafter described, and as shown in accompanying drawings, in which I have shown by a sectional side view the apparatus as applied in connection with a locomotive and car.
A is the boiler of the locomotive. D is a donkey or other small engine fitted on the 10- comotive and taking steam from boiler A. E is a fan-blower, of usual character, also fitted on the locomotive and driven by the engine D. The inlet-openings e of the blower are covered by fine-wire screens,as shown in Fig. 2, to exclude dust that might be drawn in and forced into the pipes and carbureter.
From the blower E a pipe, f, preferably of metal, passes beneath the locomotive and ten der to a coil, H, that is located on the car 0, and from the coil to the carbureter 70, also on the car (3. The connection of the pipes between the locomotive and cars is made by flexible hose and couplingdevices G, and between the coil H and -carbureter there is a rising pipe, 0, that is fitted with a safety-valve for permitting escape of air when the pressure becomes too great.
The carbureterK is to be of any usual or desired character, and will be fitted with pipes for conveying the enriched air to the burners in the usual manner. Contiguous to the aircoil H there is fitted a steam-coil, M, that is connected by pipe L with boiler A, so as to take steam therefrom, and coil M serves to heat the air passing through the coil H, so
that the air will be more or less heated before it enters the carbureter. This heater is especially useful in cold weather, to insure the vaporization of the hydrocarbon.
By this construction the required pressure can be readily maintained in the carburetor without the use of weights or other pressure devices applied in the cars in connection with each carbnreter.
A blower connected by pipes with the carbureter, and adapted for operation by hand, will be placed on the car, so that the carbureter may be kept in operation when the locomotive is detached.
I am aware that air has been forced through a carbureting-vessel by means of a fan or blower, and that a steam-pipe has been conducted through a section of the air-cond uctin g pipe of a carbureter for the purpose of heating the air on its way to the carbureter; but my invention does not pertain to such combination or operation of parts.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent The combination, with the locomotive-boiler A and its attached donkey-engine and the car 0 and carburetor K, placed on the car and suitably connected with the burners thereof, of the blower E, the air-conducting pipe f, leading from the latter to the carbureter, and the steam-pipe L, leading from the boiler, and having a coil, N, located on the car, beneath or contiguous to a coil, H, of the air-pipe, and the flexible hose-section and detachable couplings gof said pipes f L,-all as shown and described, and operating as and for the purpose specified.
JACOB WEART. Witnesses:
