@anni @da BENJAMIN P. FREEMAN AND PAT. PAYTON, 0F MACON, GEORGIA.l
Letters Patent No. 113,155, dated March 28, 1871.
IMPROVEMENT IN SPARK'RRESTERS FOR LOCOMOTIVES.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making of the same- To all whom it may concern Beit known that we, BENJAMIN P. FREEMAN and PAT. PAYToN, of Macon, in the county of Bibb and State of Georgia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Locomotive Spark-Arresters; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description'thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawing and to the letters of reference marked thereon which form a part of this specification. v
Our present 4invention is intended as an improvement upon the patent for locomotive spark-arrester granted to us May 31, 1870, antedated April 1, 1870; and
It consists in increasing the diameter of the pipe which extends downward fromthe arrester so as to beA larger "than the 'ilue of the locomotive, thereby leaving a space around'the Vupper end of 'said ue, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.
' In order to enable others skilled in the art to which.
our invention appertains .to make and use the same, we
will now proceed toy describeits construction and opt, the conical deecting cap of the volute.
The construction, object, and operation of all these parts vare the same as set forth in our patent above referred to, except that, as already patented, the pipe e formsa continuation ofthe pipe-or ilue d, and lits it very close, so thatwhen the sparks are thrown behind the arrester c they are confined in the body of the stack, 'and taken from it through theopening g.
Ouri present improvement is the openingf, as shown in the drawing, which is made by increasing the diameter of the pipe e large enough to admit the passage oi' sparks. -By this arrangement the sparks are thrown into the body of the stack by the exhaust of a locomotive, are then drawn by the following exhaust through the openingf, and, striking the conical cap fi, are again thrown into thebody ot' the stack. This operation being repeated with each exhaust of the engine, all ignited matter is extinguished.
Having thus l'fully described our invention,
What we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
In combination with the arrester c and flue d,- the pipe e, 'constructed as described, so as to form around the upper end of said ue the opening f. substantially as and for the purposes herein set forth.
. In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own we aix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
BENJAMIN P. FREEMAN. PAT. PAYTON.
