Lamp-Wick Adjuster.

IMPROVEMENT IN LAMP-WICK ADJUSTERS.
Specification describing a new and Improved Lamp -Wick Adjuster, invented by HENRY WVOODBU'RY, of Huntsville, in the county of Randolph and State of Missouri.
My invention consists of an endless adjuster, of pointed plates, fixed at short distances apart on a pair of endless chains, and arranged with the ascending part inside ofthe tube from bottoxn to top, and the descending part" outside thereof, and working over suitable guiding. and supporting rollers, and provided with'an adjusting-roller.
Figure l is a sectional elevation of my improved wick-adjuster and the wick-tube. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a section ofthe chain; Fig. 3 is an elevation of the wick-tube and rollers without the chain.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
A represents the wick-tube, which has'considera-bly more space between the two wide sides than ordinary tubes, and is preferably provided with one detachable side, B.\ The endless wick-adjuster consists of the angl'eplates C 'with pointed ends D and the chains E, whereon they aremounted in such manner that the said adjuster, being arranged alongside of the wick, the joints will enter it and hold so as to carry it along when moved. This adjuster is arranged, in connection with the wick-tube, as shown, on a roller, F, at the top,
and another, Gr, atthe bottom, the ascending part ofthe adjuster being in the tube fronting 'the detachable side B, and the other upon the outside ofthe permanent side of said/ tube, and near the center; but below the screw-capfor attaching the tube to the top of the lamp, and
through which the tube passes, is a roller, H, with plates I adapted to work between the notched plates C and force the adjuster up or down as the said roller is turned in either directiou.
This adjuster is designed to be about the saine width as the wick; but it may be narrower, if preferred. Y
It will .be observed that when one piece of wick has been drawn up to the lower end of the chain, or thereabout, another can be put in with its upper en'd against the lower end of the one already in, and will be fed along so that the two ends will be in Contact and have the effect of a continuous wick, thus savi n g the waste of the short pieces, which with all other adjusters are useless unless sewed to the end ofthe next piece put in.
The detachable side of the tube is used tofacilitate the putting in of the wick. 1n this example it is secured to the permanent part of the tube by the screws K and slotted screwholes L, arranged and operating as clearly shown; but it may be fastened by any other equivalent means.
Having thus described my invention, I ela-iin as new and desire to secure by Letters Pat- 'ent- 1. An endless wick-adjuster, formed of toothed plates, substantially as specified.
2. The combination of an endless adjuster with a wick-tube having a detachable side piece, B, substantially as specified.
HENRY WOODBURY.
