AAHQEPWPP file August? we aeria a r-me ea tank with means for separating from the gasolene all water or other impurities before the gasolene leaves the tanli and is used as a gas producing agent in the engine.
In the accompanying drawing Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved gasolene tank. Fig. 2 is a bottom view of the tank shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is an enlarged diametricalsection on the'line' a-a in Figs. 1 and 2 with a pet-cock added. Fig. 4 is a top view of filter shown in the middle of Fig. 3. Fig. 5 is a section about as on the line b-b Fig. 2 on an enlarged scale of a modification of the water separating device.
Referring to the drawing by reference numerals, l designates the main gasolene tank for a gasolene engine. The top of the tank is provided with a cover 2 of any suitable construction. The bottom 3 of the tank inclines toward one side of the tank so that any water contained in the gasolene or other gas producing fluid in'the tankl will gradually sink and move to the lowest part of the bottom and is there permitted to pass through a tube 4 into a water pocket .or com?" partment 5, which may be suspended by said tube 4 and another tube 6, or it may be secureddirectly to thetank 1, as in Fig. 5, thus dispensing with the tube 6, leaving only the aperture 7 in the bottom The tube 4 preferably extends considerably downward into the water receptacle, as clearly shown in Figs. 1, 3 and 5, so that the water is guided by the tube to the bottom of the receptacle while the gasolene gradually escapes upward through the aperture 7 and tube 6 when the latter is used.
8 is a pet-cock for emptying the water out of the receptacle 5 one or more times a year as may be required. Of said cock only the tube 9 is shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 5.
The bottom 3 of the main tank has pref erably a central aperture 10 surrounded by i se me a can 12 ha ing-a en ee ng 13. Within said cap is provided a ring 14, whose lower side is covered by a piece of chamois skin 15 and its upper side by a similar piece 16, both of which are clampingly held one between the ring and the cap, the other between the ring and the bottom 3 near around the opening 10. Below said opening is secured to the bottom 3 a compartment 17 having in its'bottoma nipple Ratentedlelik- 6.1.9214.
a fixed screw threaded collar 11, upon which 18 from which the gasolene is supplied to the mixing chamber of the engine through suitable piping (not shown.
In the use or operation of the device the gasolene is poured into the main tank 1- and is filtered by passin through the chamois 16 and 15 into the ow'erfsiceptacle 17 while the precipitated waterf d iist and dirt which can not pass throng the cha-- mois, or fallv beyond the same, find. their way down into the receptacle 5, the agitation of the gasolene in mostengines preventing even the. dust and sand from lodging upon the filter, especially as the latter is inclined the same as the bottom 3.
' One of the many modifications which are unnecessary to specify, as they come within the scope and spirit of the invention, is the omission of the tube 6 and even the aperture 7 since by making the tube 4 wide and short. the gasolene in the receptacle 5 may escape upward through, the same opening that permits the water to enter said receptacle.
What I claim is it, of a lower gasolene compartment below said aperture and provided with an outlet from which to feed gasolene to the engine, and a filtering means covering the aperture in the bottom of the main tank, said filtering means consisting of a removable screw cap I 1. In a gasolene tank for engines, tl1e combination with a main gasolene compart- 'ment having a bottom with an aperture in having a central opening, a ring within the cap and two filtering sheets, one of which is clamped between the ring and the cap, the other between the ring and the main bottom around the aperture therein.
2. In a gasolene tank ,;fo r.engines, the combination with a main gaslenecompartment having a bottom with an aperture in it, of a lower gasolene compartment below said aperture and rovided with an outlet from which to fee gasolene to the engine,
and filtering means covering the aperture in the bottom of the main tank, said bottom being inclined and' at its lowest point provided with an aperture, a receptacle fixed 5 below said aperture and. communicating therewith, and means for emptying said receptacle through its bottom, a tube extending from said aperture toward the bottom of the receptacle, and means for permitting the gasolene in the receptacle to escape up 10 Ward into the main tank When Water accumulates inthe receptacle.
In testimony whereof I el'fix my signa ture, in presence of two Witnesses.
