This rod may be adjustably connected in any suitable manner, as by .means of nut-s 8, to a valve Ispindle 9, havinr connected to its pposite end a valve 10. The valve l is preferably provided with a gradual taper, as will be Seen by reference to Fig. 1, so that 'the size oi the opening between its seat 1l and itselif will be Varied accordinf to the extent of movement of the valve. rlhe valve i 1li is adapted to control the passage of Huid from an inlet or supply pipe 12 and an outlet or generator pipe 13. The supply pipe is connected to any suitable source of fuel, such as a gasolene tank, and may have the fuel supplied thereto by means of a pump, ii desired. The outlet pipe 13 is con- Vte any euitable type of steam gensuch ai a, lash boiler. The valve l0,

p it he located in a single pipe t the juxtaposed pipes 12 and 13, s case it is shown as located interY a valve casing 111, in which are proinfbers 15 and 1G, communicating,` y with the pipes 1&5 and 13. This may be provided with a reinova t one end, win-)roby the intooe a'l'aneth and it may also be pro ailing; bon 1S at its opposite afsoy the spindle il may reciprocate the danger oi less el. fuel due to 'The opposite end ol the rod i is adinalahly i ouuectcd to a.

This paez" e 26 communicates` with a passage 27 in a nipple 28, the latter being adjustably niouutedin the easing 1 in any suitable annuel', as by means of a sri-rw'- s'iiireinied connection therewithr The nippie ertends up into a passage or chamber uit is also preferably' 29 in the Heating member 19, so that there is formed a communication between the inlet pipe 24 and the interior of the floating member 19 by means of the passages 26 and 28.

Adjustably connected to the Heating member 19 in any suitable manner, as by means of a screw-threaded connection therewith, there is provided a sleeve 30, preferably concentrically arranged with respect to the nipple Q8, and spaced apart therefrom so as to provide an annular passage 31, through which the Huid in the passage or chamber 29 may exit.

It will be noted that the nipple 28 tapers from one end to the other, so that the` size of the passage 31,-at its outlet., will be varied according to the relative position of the sleeve 30 and the nipple 28. The purpose o-l" this is to control the initial size of the passage 3l, so as to vary the quantity@ of water necessary to operate the valve 10 any predetermined amount.

In case the valve l0 should be operated to the limit of its fuel-admitting motion, there is provided means for taking care of the surplus quantity olf water supplied to the How motor. For this purpose there is pro- Avided an outlet pipe 32, which may communicate with the passage 2G, and thus with the interior of the member 29 und the chamber 1l, but which is normally shut 0H' therefrom by a needle valve 33, which has a seat in an opening in a partition 34, sepagating the pipe 32 from the passage 26. This valve 233 may be normally held on its seat so as t0 cloec the conmiuniealion between the outlet pipe 3:15 and the passage 2li in any suitable manner, aa by means of a spring 3 5, which abuis against a collar 3h on the spindle 3i' ol the valve This spindle extends through the nipple 28, and is provided at its i opposite end with a Harige or collar 38, and

is adapted to be operated from the movable member 19 thereby. The connection bel-Ween the movable .member 19 and the spindle 36 is preferably of such u nature that the member if) will be free to move until the limit of the valve 10 is reached, before it operates the valve 433. Any suitable mnncction may be provided for this purpose, und in this case there is shown a tube 39, which may be saeured in any suitable manner to the member 1S), as by having a flange or collar 40 them! engaged adjustably by means of a. nut sleeve ell, which adjustably engages a screw llmeld on the interior of the member 19. This tube 3%) ma be provided at its opposite end with an :u justable sleeve nut 42, through which the spindle 37 may extend, and which is adapted to en age the collar or Hnnge 38 on the spindle w en thc member 19 reached the vertical limit of its motion.

12. The combinationwvith a easing, of a member movably mounted in said easing', a valve connected with, and controlled by the movement of said member said member having a chamber therein, a nipple having a passage therein extending` up into said chamber, said nipple being adapted to supply a flow of fluid into the interior of said chamber, a sleeve adjustably mounted in said member in concentric relation withI respect to said nipple and spaced apart therefrom s0 as to form a eonstricted outlet passage between said sleeve and said nipple, whereby the fluid in said chamber may pass therefrom, and means for supplying said nipple With said fluid.

13. The combination with a casing, et a member movably mounted in said casing, a Valve connected with, and controlled by the movement'of said member said member having a chamber therein, a nipple having a passage therein extending up into said chamber, said nipple being adapted to supply a flow of Huid into the interior of said chamber, a sleeve adjustably mounted in said member in concentric relation with respect to said nipple and spaced apart theretrom so as to form a eonstricted outlet passage between said sleeve and said nipple, .vhereby the Huid in said chamber may pass therefrom, and means for supplying said nipple with said Huid, said nipple being tapered, so that a relative movement of said sleeve and said nipple will vary the magnitude oiE said constrieted outlet passage.

lst. The combination with a casing, of a member tloating'ly supported in said easing', out of Contact with the sides thereof, a spring,T for operating` said member in one direction, said member having a chamber therein, a nipple extending,` into said chamber whereby a Const 'icted outlet passage for said chamber is formed between said member and said nipple, means for supplyingia fluid under pressure to the interior of said chamber in such a manner as' to counteract the action of said spring, and a fuel valve and auxiliary fluid valve both connected to said member and adapted to be operated thereby.

ln testimony whereof l have signed my name to this specifieaation in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
