In the case of the gas burner shown in the accompanying drawing, the luminosity of the plays Gas in itself does not matter, it will. only the heating power of the same is used, to make a suitable body glow.

The inventor starts from the fact that the combustion of the gas developed heat in no proportion to the small amount of carbon which passes through its conversion into the solid, glowing state is alone suitable to generate light. Accordingly, a larger amount of light would be achieved if instead of the luminosity only the heating power of the gas would be used.

In the present case this heating power is developed particularly strongly by the fact that the ordinary gas is mixed with a suitable amount of air at the moment of combustion will.

The burner therefore consists of two parts: the mixing and heating apparatus and the incandescent body, the latter of which consists of a perforated piece of lime or porous magnesia in the form of a capsule A, Fig. 1, and is surrounded by a platinum fabric B.

The mixing and heating apparatus, FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, is formed by a tube C which encloses a tube bundle D at the top and expands into a bulbous mixing container E at the bottom. F is an air intake device,. which forms the cone G screwed onto the gas pipe H and forms a kind of injector with the latter, in that the gas as it flows out under normal or higher pressure simultaneously sucks in air and mixes with it in space E. The mixture of gas and air then penetrates through the tube bundle D, and after it has received a further supply of air through the openings F , its complete combustion takes place inside the capsule A with a light blue, extremely hot flame penetrating the entire incandescent body. The resulting light is therefore generated by the glow of the limestone and the platinum basket; it is mild and of a whiter than reddish color.

Instead of lime, the incandescent body can also be made of any kind of "Sner", during the glowing heat still fire-resistant "mass, alone or, in
