LIQUID OXYGEN AND FEEDING APPARATUS UTILIZING OXY 0R SCAVENGING Filed Nov. 2, 1946 =-----:::::t::':: ,IIIIII/ 3b IIIIIIIII" 29 "9 c i i5 Patented May 29, 1951 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE LIQUID OXYGEN AND FUEL FEEDING APPARATUS UTILIZING OXYGEN FOR SCAVENGING Application November 2, 1946, Serial No. 707,352 9 Claims. (01. 60-44) tion to prevent the possibility of flash-back into any small amount of explosive mixture which may remain in the space immediately behind the main valve as the valve is closed or opened.
A further object of the invention is to provide a construction in which the supply of liquid fuel is shut off before the supply of liquid oxygen.
To the accomplishment of these general objects in the preferred form, auxiliary valves are provided in the fuel supply pipes, together with actuating connections such that the auxiliary valves are opened just after the main valve is opened and are closed just before the main valve is closed.
. In a modified form, a single and specially designed rotating valve member accomplishes the same sequence of operations.
. The invention further relates to arrangements and combinations of parts which will be hereinafter described and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
Two forms of the invention are shown in the drawing, in which Fig. 1 is a partial sectional elevation of a detonating chamber having a preferred form of the invention applied thereto; a
Fig. 2 is a partial sectional elevation of a detonating chamber which embodies a modified.
form of the invention;
Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional view of the valve portion shown in Fig. 2; and
Fig. 4 is a transverse sectional view of the valve portion 5|.
Referring to Fig. 1, the detonating combustion chamber C is provided with an upward extension or hub ID in which a main valve plunger H is reciprocated by a link |2 connected to a rotating crank disc I4. A spreader I5 is mounted on a rod I6 extending downward from the plunger Liquid fuel, as gasoline, is supplied under pressure through fuel feed pipes 20, and liquid oxygen is supplied under pressure through feed pipes 2|. The pipes 20 and 2| open into closed recesses 24 each containing several wire gauze discs 25.
The recesses 24 are connected by feed passages 26 to the cylindrical passage 28 in which the main valve plunger H is reciprocated. When the plunger II is in its lowest position, the passages 26 are closed, and when the plunger is in its raised position, the passages 26 are open.
.Shut-ofi valves 32 are provided in the fuel supply pipes Zil, and the actuating arms 33 of the valves 32 have pin-and-slot connections to links 34 suspended from cross arms 35 which extend outward from a collar 35 fixed to the plunger I and vertically reciprocated therewith. Springs 38 normally hold the valves 32 closed, with the arms 33 engaging stop pins 39.
The operation of the improved feeding apparatus is as follows:
Liquid fuel and liquid oxygen are supplied under pressure to the pipes 20 and 2| respectively. The valves 32 are closed when the plunger II is at or near its lowest position and in which position detonations occur. As the plunger ll rises, the passages 26 are uncovered and a brief initial flow of liquid oxygen takes place through the recesses 24 and the passages 26 before the fuel valves 32 are opened by continued upward movement of the plunger H and links 34. Fuel is then admitted, mixing takes place within the meshes of the wire gauze discs in the recesses 24, and the resultant detonating mixture is injected into the chamber C.
As the plunger I thereafter moves downward, the springs 38 act to close the valves 32. This closing movement is completed when the parts are in the position shown in Fig. 1 and just before the passages 26 are fully closed.
As the oxygen supply pipes 2| remain open briefly after the valves 32 are closed, liquid oxygen will enter the recesses 24 and passages 26 and will force out any remains of explosive mixture before the plunger completely closes the passages 26.
Detonation then takes place, due to the residual heat in the combustion chamber, but there is no explosive mixture left in the passages 26 or recesses 24, so that thereis no possibility of flash-back during the detonation or as the.
plunger I begins its upward travel. Safe operation of the detonating chamber is thus attained. Any usual igniting device, such as a sparkplug, may be provided for initial operation.
In the construction shown in Fig. 2, the detonating combustion chamber C is provided with an upward extension or hub 46 having an axial opening 4| in which a valve member 42 is continuously rotated by any usual power means (not.
shown). Liquid fuel under pressure is fed through a pipe 43 to a passage 44, and liquid oxygen is fed under pressure through a pipe 46 to a passage 41.
The valve member 42 is slabbed off or has partitions of stock removed on opposite sides to leave a relatively wide valve portion 50 and a relatively narrow portion The fuel feed passage 44 is opposite the upper and wider valve portion 50 and the oxygen feed passage 41 is opposite the lower and narrower valve portion 5|.
With the valve rod 42 in the position shown in Fig. 2, both passages 44 and 4! are open and a detonating mixture will be formed in the lower part of the axial passage 4| and will flow into the detonating chamber C. As the valve member 42 rotates, the wider valve portion 50 will. first close the fuel passage 44, and somewhat later the narrower valve portion 5| will close the oxygen passage 41, at which time detonation will take place.
As the oxygen passage 4'! is closed later and opened earlier than the gasoline passage 44, the lower portion of the axial opening 4| will be supplied with liquid oxygen to mingle with and eject any remaining gasoline before the detonation takes place, and more liquid oxygen will be admitted before the fuel feed'passage 44 is again opened. Safe operation of the detonating chamber C is thus insured, as with the form shown in Fig. 1 and previously described.
In both forms of the invention, the preliminary shutting off of a substantial part of the liquid supply reduces the pressure in the recesses 24 and feed passages 26, or in the feed passages 44 and 41, which also reduces the danger of flashback.
