Be it lnown l'hai'. ii, Jame i-irizen of the i niied States. rear 2 city of Portland. county of Multan Slate of Oregon. have inveni'ed eer and useful inzprovemenfuin A i s 'iecification.

My invention relates to gasifiersfor gas gin es, similar to that shown and described in my pending application. filed March 13.1916, under Fierial Number 83,317. Ihave 'i oundhy fur'iher stui'ly and experimenial work that I can very materiallv improve the combuslibie mixture missing through the earhureter by eonneetingr therewith the overflow pipe of the radiator, whereh i a certain amount of vapor from said radiator is conveyed. alone with the warm air. illl'olf'fii the earmreter, and mixed wiih the ,g'asolene. disiillaie or other as producing Fuel, before. it goes, into lhe iul'ake. manifold of the engine. 1' prefer to connect a vapor pipe with the overflow pipe o'r' the radiator because this forms the most convenient mea ie of attachment lo the 'adial'or. but it will be understood, or couiee. that any connection from a radiator io the warhureler. whereby to ei'invey vapor from said radiator through said carburetor. is inended to be included as a part of my inveir tier.

in order "that others may nnd retand my invention clearly, have. iilustraie-Ll one, praeiicai form iin-reoi' in the acconn'ianying sheet of drawings, whieh I will no'. describe. 1

The figure represents a side elevation of a fin engine in dotted lines Wiih my il proved frasiiier attached iherelo. as ilh traied in my ce-peinling application. aho ix referred io. and also showing he overflow pipe, of a radiator connected for passing vaper 250 ille c h er.

in the ilhisiraihm of the invemiois shown 'uaiiea the exhaust nlainio oer iki 0" a nae engine adapted he eonnee' ted as ai 'Wiil an exhai pipe, not ehoin, the main odv of lhe engine being indieai'ed in light ofied lines. as is also the intake iiiani'iold. esignaiied 3. 1} dosiguaies a cliamhe-r-fornr Specification of Letters Patezje Pgigggbgq Any, 11 5, 3313,

1y understood. 7 the radiaro and 8. the overflow engine, which pipe, in some cases, is out through the side of the radiator and down along the outside thereof, as at 9. 10 designates a vapor pipe connect-ed with the overflow pipe of the radiator, and in the present illunfi aiion is carried through the hood, or air-heatingmember 4. above ihe exhaust manifold of the gas engine so iii to discharge the vapor down. through the, pipe as at 11. This vapor which is warmed during its passage through the hood is; mixed wilinthe heated air and thereby gz reativ improves the explosive mixture resuli'ing x as ii is discharged from. the carbureier io (he iniake mauifoid 3. The 'apor pipe can be connected. an al- 10", with the overflow pipe from the radiator. although it is to he underslood that this pipe may be considered as a separate pipe connected into the radiator in any desired position for ihe purpose of conveying vapor therefrom to eaihuri' er. Instead of connecting the overflow, or vapor pipe, ihrough the hood, an .llustrai'ed, said n )e can he connected direci'l v in the earbureer, as indicated in .1, ll'n' M ioiiei nm at main o enings. as, *3,

said hood along said exhaust member and discharging into the air pipe leading to said carburetor; whereby water, or vapor, from said radiator is heated and converted into steam as it passes along adjacent said exhaust member and under said hood, substnntially as shown and described.
