BURNER.

Application filed June 24, 1912. Serial No. 705,538.

To all whom it, may concern:

Be it known that I, J OHNSON D. LANGSTON, a citizenof the United States, and a resi dent of Birmingham, in the county of Jetferson and State of Alabama, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Burners, of which the following is a specification.

My invention is an improvement .in burners, for'use in cook stoves, ranges or heaters, adapted to utilize oil for fuel, and has for its object to provide a simple 'in expensive device of the character specified, wherein means is provided for gasifying the oiland burning the gas and which may be applied to existing stoves, ranges or heaters, with slight changes to the stoves, ranges or heaters.

'. In the drawings :'Figure 1 is a sectional burner; and Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the same.

The present embodiment of the invention is shown arranged in the fire box 1 of a stove 2, and consists of a longitudinal sec tion 3 of pipe, having at each end an elbow 4, and near the centera T 5'is interposed in the pipe. Verticalpipes 6 are "connected with the other ends of theelbows, and a vertical pipe 7 is connected with the lateral branch 8, of the T. A longitudinal pipe 9 connects the ends of the pipes 6, an elbow 10 and a T 11 being provided with this purpose. A section 13 of pipe is connected to the outer end of T 11 and one end of a sleeve let is threaded to the other end of sec tion 13. A plug 15 is threaded into the otherend of the sleeve, and a drain valve 16 extends laterally from the sleeve. A horizontal pipe 12 is connected to pipe 7, by :means of an elbow 17, and a vertical pipe- 18 is connected to'pipe 12 by means of a T 19. A needle valve 22 is arranged in the outer end of the T 19, and the supply pipe 21 top the fuel is connected to the lower end of the pipe 18. A plurality of reservoirs or generators for holding and gasifying oil. is interposed in pipe section 3, each reservoir comprising a heavy base 23, for storing up heat, and a cross 24, one branch or arm of which is in alinement with pipe 3 and the other tranverse thereto. Caps 25 are provided for closing the ends of the transverse arms. A burner is arranged below each reservoir or generator. Each burner comprises a T 27 interposed in pipe 9, the

threaded into each lateral branch,

lateialbranch of the T extending upwardly, and a short pipe 28 is threaded into each lateral branch. A cap 29 is threaded onto the upper end of each pipe 28,. and each 'cap has a small opening 30 atits center.

In operation, the oil is admitted to the upper pipe by the needle valve, and flows through pipes 12.and 7 to pipe 3. Through pipes 6, the oil flows into pipe 9. The generators hold a supply of oil, and the burners heat the solid bases and the entire generators to gasity the oil. The bases are also deflectors or spreaders for the flame as it passes from the orifice 30 of the burners. The said bases also retain the heat. The caps 29 may be interchangeable, several series of caps being provided, with different size openings. T he burner is very cheaply constructed, and cannot easily get out of repair. It. may be arranged in existing stoves, ranges and heaters without change in the stove or heater.

The fuel is distributed uniformly and evenly to the generators, on account of the supply pipe being at the center. It will be evident; that pipe 21 may extend in any direction from the burner, according to the arrangement or kind of stove.

I claim p I 1. A device of the character specified, comprising a pair of parallel pipes one above the other, pipes connecting the ends of the lower pipe to the upper pipe, a supply pipe connected to the center of the upper pipe. a needle VFIlYQ fOl controlling the flow of fuel from the supply pipe to the upper pipe. a plurality of generators for holding oil interposed in the upper pipe, a burner in the lower pipe below each generator, each geir erator comprising a solid base below the upper pipe and a hollow cross on the base, said cross having one arm in alinement with the upper pi )e and the other transverse thereto,- each burner comprising a T interposed in the lower pipe and having its lateral branch extending upwardly, a pipe perforated cap on the upper end of each of said lastenentioned pipes, and a drain valve in the lbwer pipe.

2. A device of the characterspecified, comprising a pairof parallel pipes one above the other, pipes connecting the ends of the lower pipe to the upper plpe, a supply pipe connected to the center of the up;

per pipe, a needle valve for controlling theand a Specification of Letters Patent. Patented NOV. 19, 1912.

fiow of fuel from the supply pipe to the upper pipe, aiplurality of generators for holding oil interposed in the upper pipe, a'

burner in the lower pipe below eachgenerator, each generator 'comprlsing a solid base-below the upper pipe and a hollow cross onthe base, said cross having one arm in alinement with the. upper pipe and the other transverse thereto, each burner comprising .a'T- interposed the lower pipe and having its lateralbranch extending upwardly,

apipe threaded into each said lateral branch, and aperforated'cap on the upper end of each of said last-mentioned pipes.

3. A device of the character specified, comprising a pair of parallel pipes one above the other, pipes connecting'the, ends of the lower pipe to the upper pipe, a supply pipe connected to'the center of the upper transverse thereto.

' 4. A device of the character specified, comprising a pair of' parallel pipes one above the other, pipes' connectingthe ends ,of the lower pipe to 'the upper'pipe, a supply pipe connected to the center of the upper pipe, a-needle valve for controlling the flow of fuel from the supply pipe to the upper pipe, a plurality of generators for holding oil interposed in the upper pipe, a burner in the lower pipe below eaclrgenerator, each burner comprising a T inter posed in the lower pipe andhaving its lat;

' above the other, pipes connecting the ends of the lower pipe to the upper pipe, a supply pipe connected to the center of'the upper pipe, a needle valve for controlling the flow of fuel from the supply pipe to the-upper pipe, a plurality of generators for holding oil interposed .in the upper pipe, and a burner in the lower pipe below each generator.

6. A device of the character specified, comprising spaced substantially parallel pipes connected at their ends, a supply piped connected to the upper pipe intermediate the ends of the-said upper pipe, a generator in the upper pipe on eachslde of the'supply pipe, and a burner in the'lower pipe below each generator.
