IMPROVEMENT IN PIRE-KINDLING FAG-OTS.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
We, WILLIAM J. Wrecrxs and CHARLES STOUT, both of the cityand county of St. Louis, and State of Missouri, have inventedaeertain Fire-Lighter, of which the following is a specification.
Nature and Objectscf the Invention.
. ping of waste hemp or other equivalent substances,
and coating of the same with resin, and one end thereof with coal slack, as hereafter stated.
General Description with Reference to the Drmcing.
The drawing is a perspective view of one of our fire-lighters, in which A denotes the sticks, splints, or slivers; and
B, the wrapping, the whole being coated with common resin. 1
In making the lighter according to our preferred manner, we have prepared a quantity of "split sticks, splints, or slivers of soft wood, such as pine, and hard wood, such as oak, each splint being about eight inches in length and half an inchin diameter, although these dimensions are not essential, and,in practice, will vary considerably. We first take about five splints of the hard wood and surround them by a sufficient number of splints of the soft wood to form a bundle about two and a half inches in diameter. immersed in a vessel containing melted resin, and, on being withdrawn therefrom, one end thereof is rolled in coal-slack, so as to cause a quantity of the slack to adhere thereto. The end which is coated with the slack is then wrapped with waste hemp and fine shav- This bundle is then ings of wood, known to the trade by the name of excelsior, and used extensively in the'stufiing of mattresses. After the wrapping, the whole is immersed in melted resin, and, upon withdrawal therefrom, is rolled in sawdust.
- In using our lighter, it is kindled with a match and laid among the coal, and, the resin becoming melted, saturates the hemp and other matters, which are thus made to form a blazing hall that retains an intense heat for a considerable time, so as to cause the ignition of the coal;
\Ve have given the preferred construction of our fire-lighter, but, if desired, only one kind of wood might be used, and, in place ofthe hemp and'ex celsior, any similar substance or substances might be used for a wrapper. The saw-dust is not essential, butprevents the lighters from adhering together when piled immediately after immersion, and prevents, to some extent, the rubbing otf of the resin in subsequent handling.
Claim.
\Ve claim as our invention The fire-lighter, herein described, consisting of a; bundle of sticks coated with resin, and afterward covered at one end with a body of coal-slack, and wrapped, either wholly or in part, with fibrous or other suitable material, the coal-coated end serving to maintain combustion for a loi'iger period, while the other end admits of being readily ignited with a match.
In testimony of which invention we hereunto set our hands.
