G. A. KUENZEL. PROCESS FOR PRODUCING GQMBIJsTIBLE GAS.

APPLICATION FILED NOV. 29,1911.

Patented Oct. 29, 1912.

WITH ESSES lsl l lo-r iL CHARLES TZUET'EL, OF B??? ,LTEE, @OriSTl-R'U Specification of Application filed Haven-oer 2 T 0 all whom 2'25 m 0 3 concern I:

Be itlrnown that I, CHARLES A. a citizen of the United States, residing at Buena Vista, county of Che-flee, State of Colorado, have invented a new and aful Process for Producing Combustible Gas, of which the following is specification.

My invention consists of an improved process for generating; gas.

The draw reoresezits a somewhat di. grsnnnatic View, i ,rtlyin section in elevation, of producer for carrying out Ll] process.

Referring to the drawings the I numerals 1 indicate oil-tanks hs'ving'eocl an outlet-pipe, 2, communicating with an oil-suppl pipe, 3, and ha ing e-ich a cutoff valve, 4. Said supply pipe enters a head, 5, e, glnsscylinder, 6, forming" an oil-receptac and hovin a bottom, 7. A tube, 8, axially secured in said receptacle, having its ends seeurec in the head and bottom, and said tube has s VZIlVE-Cllflillher, 9, formed about its middle. i r velveseat, 10, is formed in the bottom of said chamber, and u slve, 11, is seated upon seat. Said valve is in the shape of double cone. The sides of the ralvecnamner we formed with radial channels, 12, liuvin valve-seats, l3,-at their outer ends, on valves, 14, fit upon said seats and have stems, 15, extending inward and provided with heads, 16", at their inner ends, which heads may be engaged and moved outward by the upper, cone-shaped end or the Il'litifi valve ll, when the latter is re The outer ends of the valve-stems slide in upend of the valve-stern has a head, the forked end of a lever, stem and bead. Said lever is upon L8 ln d of the oil-recepte the upper end of 5, connecting roe. otallyconuccted to it.

The other arm of said it. a slot, formed with a caml oul t6, at about its ll'lLdCl13, and an arm,

A conduit is formed by a number of pipes, ll, of? smull diameter which are connected to the outletoi the compressor and inclosed in a jacket, d, which pipes again communicate with number of pipes, 43, inclosed in a jacket, 4%, and said pipes open into the lower end of a goscontoiner, 45, having plates, 46 and 47, ht its upper and lower into which the ends of a number of es, es, of small: diameter are secured.
