GARNET WOLESLEY IIC'KEE, OF ROCKFORI), ILLINOIS, ASSIGNOR 'ro ECLIPSE FUEL ENGINEERING COMPANY, or ROCKFORD, ILLINOIS, A CORPORATION OE ILLINOIS.
GAS MIXER AND REGULATOR.
Application led December 12, 1910. Serial No. 597,003.
To all whom it may concern: Y
Be it known that I, GARNET WoLEsLEY Mo- KEE, a subject of Great Britain, residing at Rockford, in the county Oi' Winnebago and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Gas Mixers and Regulators, of which the following is va specification.
The obj ect of this invention is to automatically regulate the quantity of gas and air mixture according to the amount used, in order that a varying number of machines can be supplied.
The further object of this invention is to regulate the richness ot the mixture of gas and air.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is an elevation of my improved V'gas mixer and regulator. Fig. 2 is a section on dotted line Z) Z) Fig. 4. Fig. 3 is a section on dotted line a, a Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a section on dotted line c c P ig. 3. Fig. 5 is a vertical sectional view of the shell showing its interior.
My improvements are supported upon a platform 1 Supportedby the legs 2. A plate I 3 is connected to the platform by the lugs 4 through which screws 5 pass. The lower section 6 land the intermediate section'7 are connected toA the plate 3 by the screws 8, and to the upper end `of the intermediate section is connected a dia hragm section 9 by the screws 10. vThe low r section 6 is cy'- lindrical in cross section and has a bottom plate 11 held in place by the screws 12. A gas supply pipe 13 has a connection with the lower section 6, and an air inlet 14 is located Opposite the gas supply pipe. 'A chamber 15 is 'divided by thevpartition 16, and the space one side of these partitions communicate with the gas supply opening 13,. and the space the other side of these partitionscommunicate with the air inlet 14.
lVithin the lower section 6 is located a connected to the stud 20, and a stuliing box- 22 surrounds the stud. By means of the le- Specication' of Letters Patent.
rod 24 connects Patented Aug. 20, 1912.
ver 21, the shell 17 can be oscillated which will present more or less number ot the openings 18 into the space of the chamber 15 communicating with the air inlet 14. Within the shell 17 is located a plunger' 23 capable of a reciprocating movement therein.- To this plunger is connected a rod 24. This plunger has its lower portion solid while its upper .portion is open and formed by the ribs 27 connecting with the center 28 which form vertical passageways 29. The upper edges of these ribs 27 are beveled, and thel upper edge of the lower portion of the plunger is beveled which will prevent the lodgmentof dust particles thereon, and the dust particleswill `fall into the interior of the plunger. The intermediate section 7 has a gas and air mixture Outlet 25. The upper section 9 supports a diaphragm 26, and the with this diaphragm. The diaphragm 26 moves up andv down according to the pressure of the mixtureot gas and air,
which will movey the plunger with it. As the pressure falls, the plunger will drop and expose more of the openings 18 in the shell, thereby allowing more gas and air to How through the outlet 25, and when the pressure is raised, the plunger will rise, thereby reducing the quantity of the mixture. The cause ofthe reduction in the pressure of the mixture is brought about by thev use of more or lessmachines consuming the mixture. The vertical passage ways 29 will direct the flow of gas and air in the lengthwise direction of the intermediate section 7 thereby insuring a thorough mixture.
The grade of mixture is regulated by the oscillations of the shell, and should the shell be turned suiciently to expose the same number of openings to the inlet of the gas as is exposed to the inlet of air, the mixture Will be equally proportioned, and a less rich mixture can be accomplished by exposing more holes to the entrance ot' air than to the entrance of gas.
I claimas my invention. y A gas mixer and regulator, comprising a chamber having a gas inlet opening and an air inlet opening, a perforated oscillatory shell located within the chamber, a recipr0- eating plungervlocatedwit-hin the shell and a diaphragm connected with the plunger,
5 the plunger formed with a closed lower section and a ribbed upper section, the ribs forming vertical passage Ways. I
In testiniony whereof I have hereunto'set my hand in presence of two subscribing Witnesse's.
