110 all whom it may concern Be it known that I, DANIEL EDWARD RYAN, of

the cityand county of St. Louis and State of Missonri, have invented new and useful Improvements in Vapor-Generating Bnrners, for oroducing a heating -flame'from gasoline and other distillates'of petroleum.

I do. hereby declarethe following to. be a full, clear,

and exact description of the same, reference being bad to the accompanying drawing making a portionof this specification, in which Figure 2 is a sectional view; and

FigureB is a perspective view.

= j Figure 1 shows the method of applying the burner to cooking-stoves. v A

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the'figurcs.

The object of this invention is the production of a safe,cheap, andpowerfnl heating-flame from gasoline, and other distill-ates of petroleum, by means of l a burner, which, in its principle and operation, shall be. thoroughly nuderthe control of the operator, wherein the fluids shall be perfectly vvaporized, the combustion perfect, and the construction of the burn- .er snch that it can. bed-eadily put together, taken apart, and the gas-hole reached for. cleaning instant- -ly, if.it fouls; also locating the gas or vapor-gener- I ating chamh'er'at the point of greatest heat, so that allthe heavy or greasy portions of the fluid will he; fully vaporizedandconsumed.

To enable others to make and use my intention, I will proceed to describe its parts and operation. M is'a reservoir, toihold fluid to supply the burner.

. N is an opening, through which M is iilled.

P is a supply-pipe. l 0 is a continuation of P.

i J and Kis a cock and key, that regulates the supplyot' fluidto the burner.

I II .is a pack tube containing about four inches of gauze, rolled close in the formot' a pencil, and inserted in the end next thelmrncr, it serving to break the 'force of the backward pressure of vapor in the expansion of the fluid, and being a substitute for cotton,which, in that position, would heat, by reason of -.th'e great heat of the burner. Behind the gauze is placed about six inches of cotton-wick, as a further regulator, to produce an equal flow of vapor. p

p i C G 'is a ring or perforated plate, having attached .toone sideof its outer edge, and forming one piece or casting, a 'right anglc piece of metal containing a gas orvapor-gener'ating chamber. l

IMPROVEMENT INVAPOR-GENERATING BURNERS FOR s'roves'.

The Schedule refefr ed to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.

Dis a plate or cap, having a flange of suifioient width to form. a continuousplate of the ring 0 0, when it is placed in theopening of the latter.

The object of forming G O and D in two parts is,

that D may hc instantly removed in case of the oh- I structionof the orifice of the nippleE, thus placing its working parts within immediate reach. of the operator.

I) may also be lifted to till the drip-cup E with fluid, to heat the burner, before the fluid is turned on through the regulating keys.

A A is a right-angle generating-cln'tmber, where a fine vapor is generated by the heating-flame partly enveloping it as the flame passes out'from under the plate.

alent form, forming a continuation of the generatingchamher A A to the drip-cup and nipple E E, the gas l as it is generated at A A passing downward, around,

and through the tube 1" to the orifice G.

E is a drip-cup and nipple combined. 7

G is an orifice, whence issues the heatingfiame, striking the plate above A, where it spreads out in a broad, round sheet, striking out and upward.

' The location of the wire gauze and cotton-wick packing is indicated by words to that effect-in fig. 2. To operate the burner, open the key thereto, and allow the cup E to fill, shut the fluid ofl, and set fire to the contents of the cup; when it is nearly all consumed, turn the fluid on, and a bright, blue flame will appear, striking outward and upward from the edge of the plate 0 O, and partly enveloping in its passage the generating-chamber A A. The proper manipulation of the cook and key will produce a large or small flame.

\Vhat 1 claim as my'invention, and

v v desire to secure hy Letters Patent, is-

bined drip-cup and nipple E E, all constructed in the manner shown and described, and for the purposes set forth.
