HUMIDIFIER.
Specicaton'of Letters Eatent.
atented J une 13, 1916.
Application led June 7, 1915. Serial No. 32,695.
To all yw hom t 'may concern Be it known that I, W'iLLiAM C. CLIFFORD, a citizen of the United States, residing et Mennford, in the county of Creek, State of Oklahoma. have invented Certain new and usetui Improvements in Huinidifiers;end I do hereby-doclet. the following to be a fuli, r. mr. and erect ription of the Kenton, sx1-chos will enebie others skilled in the art to which it eppertuins to make und use the seme.
This invention relates to certain novel and useful improvements in humidifiers. l
An object of the invention is to provide a humidifier which will blow moisture into u. room :1nd :it the seme time agitute the air.
A further object of the invention resides in supplying the device with water in such manner that the witter carriers will be constantly kept moist.
A still further object of the invention resides in providing novel means for conveying the surplus water from the carriers.
W'ith these and other objects in view, such as will app-eer es the descriptionprogresses, my invention comprises the combination and arrangement of ports as set forth in and falling within the scope of the appended claims.
Referring to the drawing: Figure lise front elevation of my device. Fig. 2 is a. vertical sectional view through the device teken in the plone of the fen. 141g. 3 is n side elevation of the device. Fig. Il is e vertical sectional view taken at right angles' to Fig. 5 is e frngmentftl detail shoW- ing, the manner in which the Water is conveyed te the water chamber from one of the fen blades. Fig. 6 is e frngnientztl detzul Showing the "teens for conveying the witter to the water carriers.
Referring to the drawing wherein like parts are indicated by like characters throughout the seve'itl views: in the enibodiment of my invention shown I have illustrat-ed e stuud 1 mi which cust the usuzii motor casinir 2 in which the motor is mount ed in the usuel manner. rEhe porticuliir construction of this motor und stand is not n part of my invention. inusmuch us any suitable motor and stond me be used und it is therefore thought umn. sery to illustratie this motor in detail. .ee-cured to the shaftV B et the motor u. en #t having a plurality of blades rnd oi eeeh blinde is bent bec-i; upon itseli to forni chamber G huving end walls 7 therein. `This end is extended slightly and forms a resilient bill 8 for clamping the water container in e manner to be described. Covering thel face of each blade is e water container 9 formed of cloth or some other soft materiel that will reedilv absorb water. These water earriersf) are f mired to theinnerends of blades and cxtend into the chambers 6 in slight spaced relation to the bottoms thereof and are secured therein by the bills 8. In order that these water carriers may be supplied, continuously, with water I have secured a reservoir 10 to the blades in alinement with the she it 3 which reservoir is rotatable with the fen and has n plurality of outwardly extending nozzles 11 each of which is in elinement with and lies over one of the blades. EX- tending into the reservoir 10 is a supply pipe 12 which is stationary and is loosely connected to the reservoir so that the reservoir muy rotate with relation thereto. As the fan, revolves the water is thrown outwardly from the nozzles 11 by centrifugal force and is absorbed by the carriers 9, the moisture is then blown into the air by the revolving,r of the fan.
During the operation of the device and because of the centrifugal feeding' of the water it .will `gradually Work to the outer ends of the blades and in order that it may not be thrown ott' of these ends, I have provided the chambers G end in order that the water muy be conveyed from these chambers during the revolution of the fun I have provided u circuzusr-,rihing chamber 13 in which is formed u continuous slot 14. Connected to one corner of euch of the chambers 6 is :in outlet pipe lo which extends ino the slot 14. During the revolution of tl .e fgln the water is thrown by centrifugal fence o t of the pipes 15 into the chamber 13 thi-ou h the slot 14 therein. The water is conveyed from the chamber 13 to an outlet pipe 1G having; n .suituble oook 17 therein.
In operation the reservoir 10 is supplied with water through the pipe 12 end the cnrriers t? dzunpeiued et which time the continuous revolution of the fan willl throw moisture into the :tir :it the sumo time the nir is rig-rituted. The surplus water works gradually ov centrifugal force to the ends of the. blades of the lun und is caught in the chambers; on the suid ends, the water is then thrown from th chambers through the pipes rounecled loreto into the circum- 5 be keptmoist but of such construction that therel 4will'be no possibility water escaping therefrom.
Vhile I have illustrated and described a particular embodiment of my invention, I
of the surplusr have merely done so for the sake of conlvenience and I do not wish to be limited to that particular embodiment as it is obvious that numerous changes may be made wlthm theA detalls ofgconstructlon thereof without in any way departing from the spirit of the i invention or exceedlng the scope of the appended claims.
.lVhat I claim is=r 1. n a humidifier` the combination with a fan, o'fan absorbent material Secured to each 'blade thereof, means for supplying water to the inner end of each blade. means for accumulatingy the water at the outer ends of the blades, and means for receiving the 25 water from the said accumulating means.
2. In a humidifier, the combination with a fan having an absorbent material on the blades thereof, of a Water reservoir secured concentrically with the axis of the fan, Said reservoir being constructed and arranged to eject water therefrom upon the rotation of the fan onto said absorbent material, chambers at the ends of the blades of the fan for accumulating water therefrom, centrifugally controlled outlet pipes in said chambers, and a circumscribing chamber for receiving' the water from said outlet pipes. Y
3. In a humidifier, the combination with a. fan having absorbent material on the blades thereof, of centrifngally controlled water feeding means for supplying the absorbent material with water. means for collecting the water from the ends of the blades, and means for conveying the water from the said last mentioned means.
4. In a humidifier, the combination with a fan having a plurality of blades, of absorbent material secured to the blades, a waterreservoir secured to the fan centrally thereof and having radiating pipes arranged in alinement with the blades, chambers on the ends of the blades, a pipe connected to each chamber and extending`- outwardly therefrom, and a circumscribing chamber having a slot therein, the said pipes extending into said slot throughout the entire revolution of the fan. Y
In testimony whereof, I affix my Signature, in the presence of two Witnesses.
