ANTHONY B. HUENINGHAKE AND JOHN THOMAS KENNEDY, OF CINCINNATI, OHIO.

DEODQRIZER.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, ANTHONY B; Hon- NINGHAKE and JOHN T. KENNEDY, both citizens of the United States, and both residents of the city of Cincinnati, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Deodorizers, of which the following is'a specification.

The object of our invention is to provide a highly efiicient deodorizer, which will be cheap of manufacture, and simple in con struction. a

One of the salient features of. our invention is'to form an outside jacket or casing whose entire surface is filled with small perforations or slots so that the disinfectant fluid or deodorizer is rendered capable of being emitted in all directions so that a large area is covered by its sanitary influences.

Another salient feature consists in providing an inner tube or can spaced fromthe 3 provided. with perforations 8 into which outerperforated jacket and provided at its periphery'with a felt, cloth wick, or other material suitable for allowing the disinfectant fl'uidto permeate it by capillary attraction. I

The other features of the invention and its advantages will readily become apparent from the following specification.

Figure l, is a perspective view of our invention partly broken away on one side to illustrate its construction, Fig. 2, is a perspective view of the inner can or tube partly broken away on one side to illustrate construction, and Fig. 3, is a central longitudinal section of the invention.

The outer jacket 1 is preferably cylindrical in shape and has a bottom 2 and a top or lid 3, the bottom is put in place by a seam and the lid 8 is removable. In order to hold the lid in place a pin at is rigidly connected to the jacket 1 and a spring 5 connected at point 6 to the saidjacket 1, its loose end 7 passing through a hole'in the casing, the lid the pine and end 7 of spring 5 enter to hold said lid in place. If it is desired to remove said lid 3 the end 7 of spring 5 is pushed V in and the lid can be removed. The jacket 1. and its bottom 2 and top 3, except around its rim 9 are all perforated. and this may be perforated if desired. Anotherfastening device may be used for holding the lid on the jacket. This jacket and its top and bot- Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed June 24, 1915. Serial No. 36,140.

toinmay be made'of any size, from any 1na"- terial and of any contour. The inner can or tube 10 is less in diameter than the jacket I 1 so that a space 12 is left betweenit and said jacket. At its lower end this can 10 is provided with a screw cap connection 13 through the medium of which it is filled, and at its lower extremity the can 10 is also provided with a circular trough or spaced= spaced cap off of the bottom 2 of These legs may however be dispensed with v the jacket 1 in any desirable manner found expedient. r

A small hole or perforation 18 is placed near the bottom of the can 10 through which the fluid, liquid or contents of the can pass out and permeate the wick 1 6. This wick 16 may be removably or. detachably connected to the can 10, in the present instance being removably attached so that it can be slid off. 7

The device is portable and can be placed at any point or position where needed. In the present instance we provide arms as 20 by which is can be attached to the woodwork or frame.

In order to place the device in operation, the screw cap connection 13 on can 10 is opened by unscrewing the cap thereof and the deodorizing or disinfecting fluid poured into the said can 10 and when sufiiciently filled the can is screwed home. The lid 31 having been removed from the jacket 1, the can 10 is placed into the jacket, the feet 17 resting on bottom 2; the liquid will seep or drain out through the hole 18 and permeate the-wick 16 and by capillary attraction rise and soak the whole wick, until it is thoroughly filled with the fluid used for deodorizing or disinfecting. When the wick be-. comes too dry and is not suiiiciently soaked to act as a good germicide or disinfectant, the can 10 may be refilled. The trough 14. catches all refuse or leakage or sediment and keeps the device clean at its lower end.

or supports 17 f V and the can 10 supported in Ne may use any kind of deodorizer, dis- 1 infectant or the like and place the deodorpossible disinfecting and deodorizing qualit es emanating from the liquid used Wlll a thoroughly permeatethe atmosphere in all -'directions at the point Where the device is used, not only on account ofthis peculiar construction but inasmuch as the air, Wind ordraft or the like can circulate through i h j et and space between'it and th I inner can. 7 v

While We have described one specific form and construction-of our device, it will read ilybe apparent thatthe same is capable of considerablemodification, and We Wish to be understood asclanmng that such modlfications Wlll not deviate from the pr1nc1ple and spirit of (our invention, and still fall ithin the scope of our invention.

Nhat We claim as new and our invention land-desire to secure by Letters Patent is:

, 1Q Ina deodorizerof the class described,

, a perforated jacket, a can Within said jacket and spaced apart therefrom, said can hold- 7 ing the deodorizing element, means for 5 opening and closing said can, an absorbing 1 Y in the side of the canfor allowing the deniaterial around saidcan, anda vent hole odorizing element to directly reach the absorbing material, the perforated acket havrlnga' perforated top andbottom.

2. Ina deodorizer of the class described,

a perforated acket, a can for holding the liquid Within the same and spaced apart I therefrom, said can provided with a trough attached thereto att hebottom, an absorbing wick around said can, a vent in the can to allow the liquid to directly reach the abwithin the same and spaced apart therefrom,

means for opening and closing saidcan, a trough at thebottom of said can and legs on the'trou-gh for supportingthe canin'the jacket, a wick aroundsaid can, and a'hole in the can near the bottom thereof for allowing the liquid in the can-to directly saturate [the Wick.

4-;In a deodorizer of the classdescribed, a jacket perforated throughout its entire extentan'd aperforated top. andbottom therefor, a can for holding the liquid, a trough connected to said can at the bottom andhaving legs for supporting the can in,the jacket, said can spaced apart from said jacket, the can atiits bottoni having a'screw cap which extends into a space between thebottomof he can and the bottom of the jacket, a Wick surrounding said can, ,a hole in said can near its bottom for allowing .thejliquid to directly reach the Wick.
