CHARLES MARCHESE AND FRANK C. TOSCANO, OF LOS BANOS, CALIFORNIA.

OIL-BURNER.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed May 12, 1911.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, CHARLES MARCHESE and FRANK C. TOSCANO, citizens of the United States, residing at Los Bancs, in the county of Merced and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in OilBurners, of which the following is a specification.

The invention relates to burners, and more particularly to the class of oil or hydrocarbon burners.

The primary object of the invention is the provision of a burner in which oil fed thereto will be vaporized into a gaseous state for the proper consumption thereof when ignited.

Another object of the invention is the provision of a burner in which the burning fluid will be preliminarily heated for the generation of gas for assuring a thorough and substantial combustion, thereby obviating the choking or incrustation of unconsumed products, during the burning of the fuel.

A further object of the invention is to provide a burner possessing eiiciency and reliability, and one that is simple of construction, strong, durable, and inexpensive in manufacture.

Vith these and other objects in view, the invention consists in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter more fully described, illus trated in the accompanying drawings, and pointed out in the claims hereunto appended.

In the drawings: Figure 1 is a side elevation of a burner constructed in accordance with the invention. Fig. Q, is a vertical longitudinal sectional view therethrough. Fig. 3 is a top plan view. Fig. 4 is a bottom plan view of the burner cap removed.

Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views of the drawings.

Referring to the drawings by numerals, the burner comprises a substantially rectangular shaped base 5, having a depending marginal flange 6 extending throughout the sides and ends thereof, the base being formed with a vertical cylindrical outerV column 7 rising centrally therefrom, which is arranged concentrically with respect to an inner column 8, also rising from the base, centrally thereof, to form an annular oil chamber 9 between the inner and outer columns, the column 8 being of considerably less height than the outer column 7, and communicating with the oil chamber 9 is an oil supply pipe 10, the latter being threaded in the outer column 7, as usual, and is adapted to supply oil to the oil chamber for consumption by the burner. l

The base 5 is provided with a central opening l1 which communicates with the inner column 8, so as to provide an air passage through the latter for the mixture of air with the oil when vaporized, in a manner as will be hereinafter more fully described.

Detachably fitted upon the upper free end of the outer column 7 is a burner tip or cap 12 formed with a contracted upwardly extending central dome 13, from the crown 14 of which extend downwardly converging outlet tubes 14, the same being suitably secured in the crown 14, and open exteriorly of the same, whereby the vaporized oil and air mixed therewith may flow through the outlet tubes 14 and be ignited for consumption.

Secured in the base 5 and. depending therefrom are pan supporting members 16, the same being engaged with a generator pan 17, the same being formed with a dished center 18, in which is delivered a predetermined quantity of oil which is adapted to be ignited prior to the lighting of the burner, so that the heat from the flame rising therefrom will cause the vaporization of the oil fed into the oil chamber 9 between the outer and inner columns 7 and 8 prior to the consumption of the vaporized oil mixed with air, thereby assuring a thor oughcombustion of fuel and the proper burning thereof when the burner is lighted.

The oil is fed through the pipe lO'to the oil chamber 9 and by reason of the height of the inner column 8 being less than the outer column 7, a small quantity of oil will overflow from the oil chamber and drop into the pan 17 where it will be preliminarily ignited prior to the lighting of the burner, and in this manner, the oil within the oil chamber will become vaporized for the proper consumption thereof in a volatile state on the lighting of the burner, thus as` suring perfect combustion when the burner is ignited. It is of course to be understood that the burner may be placed in a stove or the like, so that oil may be utilized for fuel and the burner will enable the generation of its own gas for Combustion, during the use of the stove for Cooking, heating or other purposes, as may be desired.

What is claimed is:

1. A hydrocarbon burner, comprising a base, inner and outer columns rising from the base to provide an oil chamber therebetween, an oil supply pipe communicating with the said chamber, a generating pan suspended from the base beneath the said chamber, a burner cap fitted on the outer column, and a plurality of downwardly oonverging outlet tubes mounted in the cap and opening through its crown.

2. A hydrocarbon burner, comprising a base, inner and outer columns rising from the base to provide an oil chamber therebe` tween, an oil supply pipe communicating `with the said chamber, a generating pan from the base beneath the said suspended a burner Cap tted on the outer chamber,

column, and a plurality of downwardly con` f verging outlet tubes mounted in the cap and opening through its crown, the said base being provided with an air opening communicating with the inner column.

In testimony whereof we aiX our signatures 1n presence of two witnesses.
