' IGNITION APPARATUS,
Specification of Letters Patent. Patented June 11, 1912.
Application filed August 3, 1910. Serial No. 575,329.
the following is aspecification.
- My invention relates to improvements in ignition apparatus which comprises, a receptacle to contain inflammable material, a wick containing member, the wick of which is adapted to be immersed in the inflammable material, and ignited by a spark producing element, carried by the wick containing member being struck on an abrasive element; the ignition being produced manually.
The objects of my improvements are to i provide a simple ignition apparatus, the
wick container of which is separable from the reservoir 4 inflammable material. The advantage of this arrangement being, that the danger of inflammable material in the reservoir becoming ignited, is avoided, and the ignited wick containing member may be carried to the object to be lighted without carrying the entire apparatus to such ob- 'ect. 1 Other objects which add to the simplification of the device will be pointed out in the following detailed description:
I attain these objects by the mechanism shown in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a front elevation of the device embodying my invention, the reservoir for inflammable material being shown in vertical section. Fig. 2 is a top plan view of my device. Fig. 3 is a vertical single section of the wick containing member. Fig. 4 is a cross sectional view on the line 4% of Fig. 3.
In the drawings (1 represents the base, secured to which is a receptacle 0 for inflammable material, such as alcohol. Located within the receptacle IS,3., tubular guide I) which forms the orifice of the receptacle. A wick containing element e,h'aving a swelled or ball-shaped surface f is adapted to close the opening of the receptacle and thus prevent evaporationof the inflammable material.
Located within the casing e, and at the spark-producing element '11, such as cerium.
Between the tube at and inside the casing e is located a wick 0. he piece it is fed out of the tube m, to be in igniting proximity with the wick by means of a rod A: attached to an externally threaded nut 72., which threads are adapted to engage an internally threaded portion at'the top of the casing e. In order to make a tighter joint between the casing and the nut, the threaded .portion of the latter is slotted and spread apart as shown .at 2', thus making a tight engagement between the theaded portions and preventing evaporation of the inflammable material through the tube when acting as a stopper for .the receptacle.
An abrasive element b is secured to the base a, by means of which the wick 0, after having been immersed in the inflammable material contained in the receptacle 0, is ignited through the sparks produced by striking the spark producing element at on the abrasive element.
By this construction it will be seen that the wick containing element 6 may be removed from the receptacle 0 and carried to the material to be lighted, and when not in use, serves as a stopper for the orifice of the receptacle.
I claim:
1. An ignition device comprising in combination, a support, an abrasive element mounted on said support, a receptacle mounted on said support adapted to contain an ignitible substance, a tubular member supported in said receptacle but separable therefrom with one end immersed in said substance and carrying at such end an absorbent material and a spark producing element adjacent to said absorbent material and adapted to be struck on the abrasive element, and means for adjusting said spark producing element with respect to said member.
2. An ignition device comprising in com-- 3. An ignition device comprising in combination, a receptacle adapted to contain an ignitible substance, a member supported in said receptacle and separable therefrom with one end immersed in said substance and carrying at such end an absorbent materialand a spark producing element adj acent to said absorbent material, and means for adjusting said spark-producing element with respect to said member. a
4. An ignition device comprising in combination, a receptacle adapted to contain a liquid ignitible substance and having an orifice, a member separable from said receptacle adapted to close said orifice and with one end immersed in said substance and carrying at such end an absorbent ma-. terial and a spark producing element adja cent to said absorbent material, and means for adjusting said spark producing element with respect to said member.
5. An ignition device comprising in com bination, a receptacle adapted to contain a liquid ignitible substance, a guide tube Within said receptacle forming the orifice thereof, a tubular member adapted to close said orifice and with one end immersed in said substance and carrying at such end an absorbent material and a spark producing element adjacent thereto, and means for adjusting said spark producing element with respect to said member. 7
