AroMIzER Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 30, 1914.
Application filed January 16, 1913. Serial No. 742,427.
T 0 all whom it may concern Be it known that I, EDWARD J. FRANKLIN, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Salt Lake City, in the county of Salt Lake and State of Utah, have invented a new and Improved Atomizer, of which the following is a full, c1ear, and exact description.
My invention relates to an atomizer designed to supply lubricant to steam, gas, air or other vapor engines, and it is so constructed that it can be used with oil, graphite, mica, or any other lubricating material.
The chief object of my invention is to provide an atomizer which can be caused to project into the conduit which supplies the motive agent to the engine, and in practice it will have its discharge aperture turned against the direction of flow of the'moti've agent, so as to make the atomizing action and the distribution of the lubricating material more efficient and uniform.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, in which the same characters of reference indicate the same parts in both the views.
Figure 1 is a transverse section through a pipe line, showing my atomizer in position; and Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional View through a section of piping, showing my atomizer in action.
In the practice of my invention I cause my atomizer, which is indicated as a whole by the numeral 1, to project in through the side of a pipe line 2, this pipe line serving to convey steam or any other motive agent that may be employed to the motor in which the same is to be used. The atomizer 2 is bent in the form of an L, and its discharge opening faces the direction from which the motive agent is coming.
The atomizer has a bore 8 and the discharge end thereof is cone-shaped, as shown at a. This conical surface intersects with the cylindrical surface of the bore 3 to form a sharp edge 5 which surrounds the discharge opening and across which the 111-- bricating material flows over its entire eX- tent. After passing this edge the lubricating material is so acted upon by the motive agent in the pipe 2 that it spreads itself evenly over the conical surface 4: and is uniformly distributed and atomized, so that a sufficient amount for my purpose is caryond these lock nuts in a threaded nipple rial is supplied through the pipe 9 to'the bore 3 of the atomizer under a pressure I greater than the pressure of the .motive agent in the pipe line 2. The length of the" atomizer tube inside of the pipe line must be sufiicient to insure a thorough heating of the lubricant when steam, for instance,
"is used, and this heating not only decreases the viscosity of the fluid and makes itthinher, but also increases its susceptibility to atomization when it emerges from the discharge opening surrounded by the edge 5.
The angle of slope of the conical surface 4 may be varied to give the required path, as conditions may necessitate. As the lubricant flows in through the bore 3 it passes across the edge 5, and the impact of the motive agent on the particles of lubricant causes the lubricant to spread out in a thin film over the conical surface. On reaching the base of this conical surface the lubricant will be swept oil and atomized by the action of the motive agent, and particles of lubricant will thus commingle fully and thoroughly with the motive agent and be distributed in all directions therethrough, so that the lubricating action, when the motive agent reaches the parts of the engine which regjuire lubricant, will be as efficient as possi le.
It will be seen that there are no obstructions adjacent the end of the atomizer carrying the conical surface t that will inter fere with or prevent the action of the motive agent upon the lubricant to break up and scatter the same. I wish to emphasize the uniform distribution of the lubricant which theoone-shaped head affords. This is an important point and imparts great practical utility to my invention. Furthermore, another important feature of my atomizer is the fact that there is but one aperture leading to the cone-shaped surface,
and this aperture being centrally located porarily out of action.
with respect to the surface the lubricating material is delivered to this surface in they very best position to be positively and uniformly distributed.
and other solid lubricating substances or mixtures thereof, Without incurring any risk of becoming clogged and thus put temto the structure described and partly due to the fact that the lubricating material is forced through the atomizer under pressure in the manner above set forth.
I Wish to have it understood that the My' ato'mizer "will thus Work effectively With oil or other liquid lubricant, also With powdered graphite, mica This is partly due tion With a conduit through which flows a motive fluld, of a bent tube havlng a conical end and secured 1n the conduit With its con1- cal 'end entendingin'a direction opposite that of the flow of the motive fluid, Whereby the lubricant Will be uniformly distributed by the said conical end and atomized by the motive fluid.
QQ'In a lubricant atomizer, an L-shaped tube having a frusto-conical head at the end of one member thereof, said head having its base of greater diameter than the tube, the tube being adapted to'be secured in amotive fluid conduitwith its head extending in a direction opposite that of the flow of the "fluid in said conduit, whereby the said head distributes the lubrlcant for atomization by the fluid.
