EMEBY M. BYERS, 01 317198, ILLINOIS.
BURNER.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, EMERY M. Bums, a citizen of the United States, residing at Buda, in the county of Bureau, State of Illinois, have invented certain new and-useful Improvements in Burners, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to burners, and to the complete combustiolrof any material by ples of my invention; Fig. 2 isa sectionalview on line 2-2 of Fig.1; and Fig. 3 is a sectional view on line 33 of Fig. 1.
It has been proven that carbonaceousmatter loses all characteristic odor when burned in. such a manner that perfect combustion is obtained. Carbon dioxid is a colorless, odorless gas which does not support combustion and is the end product of perfect combustion. carbon 'monoxidf is readily combustible when a sufficient supply of oxygen is provided. The present invention. depends upon the decomposition of water by heat and the uniting of the decomposed elements with the gases produced by the combustion of some carbonaceous material, such, for example, as a hydro-carbon, to produce perfect combustion. In this inventionthe resultis produced by providing a burner for a Volatile oil such, for example, as petroleum,1or coal oil, with a chamber or receptacle to which water is admitted, and so that.
the water, upon' being heated, becomes. steam, which is. passed over the burning hydro-carbon,
produced by the combustionof the'hydrocarbon and thereby aiding the combustion of the hydro-carbon, producing perfect combustion, which eliminates all odor and for' mation of dangerous or objectionable gases.
Referring now more particularly to the drawings, Figs. 1, 2 and 3 illustrate a burner."
thereby decomposing the" steam, the elements uniting with the gasesv Specification of Letters Patent. P t t A 11, 191 Application filed my 21, 1915. Serial No. 41,027.
perforations 10 therein, an open top for apertures 14. Extending through the base 12 are a plurality of 'air passages 15, having flanges .16 on top of the base, which preferably extend above the to of the apertures 14 through the shell 9. 'The casting is also formed with an open cup 16 inside of the shell 9, preferably supported by integral spokes 17 and extending downwardly therefrom, and preferably eccentric to the cup 16* 1s a tube 18 to which a water pipe 19 is connected at the bottom of the base 12. A hydro-carbon admission opening 20 is also formed in the base 12 to which a pipe 21 is .connected for-admitting the hydro-carbon to the interior of the cast' g.
Supported by the flange 13 of the casting 8 is an inclosing cylindrical perforated shell 22 which is spaced a slight distance from the outer wall of the inner shell 9. This forms an annular combustion space between the inner or generator shell 9 and the incloslng shell 22. Dlsposed at the bottom of this annular. space, adjacent the apertures 14, is a starter ring 23, preferably constructed of fibrous absorbent material such as asbestosor the like, by means of which the burner may be-hbated when it is first lighted.
The shell 9 forms a generating chamber for generating gas from the oil and steam from the water, and the shell 22 incloses the annular chamber; the mixture of water,-
gas and air issuing from perforations 10 and burning in the annular space between the generating. shell 9 and the inclosing shell 22. The height of the flame in the annular chamber depends upon the amount of oil which is being vaporized.
' In operation, a quantity of the "oil to be burned is admitted through the pipe 21 to the interior of the base 12 and it flows out-. wardly through the apertures 14 to the starter ring 23. The flanges 16 prevent the.
escape of the oil through the air admission holes 15 and the 'starter ring' acts as a wick which may be lighted in the same manner as the absorbent wick of a lamp. Water is admitted through the pipe 19 to the cup 16 and when the burner has become sufliciently hot because of the combustion of the hydrocarbon, the heat will be communicated through the spokes 17 to the cup 16 which.
will cause the water contained in the cup and admitted through the pipe 19 to turn into steam, which will thereupon escape through the openings 10,-and uniting with the gases formed by the combustion of the hydro-carbon, will cause a further uniting of the gases, resulting in perfect combustion.
What I claim is:
