MAGNETIC ATTACHMENT FOR ENGINES AND THE LIKE.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Nov. 4, 1919.
Application filed May 6, 1918. Serial No. 232,811.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, HERMAN LOUIS KEUN, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of IlllIlOlS, have invented a new and Imremoving the waste or loose magnetic material and other foreign matter from the oil from adjacent said parts.
A still further object of the invention is the provision of an improved container and magnet adapted to be secured to a timer for causing a better contact of the various parts of the timer and thereby cause a production of a longer complete contact and a more intense spark in the cylinder.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 isa side elevation of part of a timer used on the Ford automobile with an embodiment of the invention shown applied thereto.
Fig. .2 is a fragmentary sectional view through Fig. 1 on line 2 2, the same being on a slightly enlarged scale.
Fig, 3 is a front view of the magnet shown in Fi 2.
Re errin to the accompanying drawing by numerals, 1 indicates a. timing device' which is provided with the usual contacts 2 and the operating parts not shown for causing a proper connection of the circuits. In order that the various parts of the timer may operate properly the same must be maintained oiled and also clean. In supplying oil and in the use of the timer dust and foreign matter gets into the timer and the various metal parts grind against each other so that there will be a certain amount of small metallic grains which-produce a certain resistance by reason of the very small separation of the parts. This requires cleaning from time to time in order to produce a proper contact. By arranging the the metallic grains accidentally inserted into the timer with the oil or some other way, or produced by the contact of'the parts are removed automatically and substantially as fast as produced or supplied. In addition the other foreign matter which is not metallic gravitates into the passageway 3 of the container 4 and from thence is discharged into the container. This container may be of brass or other material, and is preferably threaded into position as shown in Fig. 2 at a proper angle to be free of the fan belt when used on the timer of an engine. The bottom of the container 4 is internally threaded for receiving the threaded cap 5 which makes a liquid tight connection and at the same time holds the foreign matter in the container until the cap is removed and the foreign matter released. A magnet 6 is preferably loosely positioned in the container 4 and is provided with a keeper 7 at one end. The magnet is what may be termed a horseshoe magnet, but is bent to one side at the upper end 8, as shown particularly in Fig. 2, so that the Waste metallic and foreign matter in the case of the timer 1 may have a free and unobstructed passageway into the container 4.
By providing this attachment for removin foreign matter, and magnetic grains the contact members 2 and the parts associated therewith are kept clean so that there will be a close and substantially perfect contact whenever the parts are engaged. This will insure an intense spark for the proper length of time and thereby give a positive, full and proper timed explosiion so as to consume the surplus carbon usually formed in the combustion chambers and which is detrimental to the spark plugs, valves and rings.
In internal combustion engines it has been found that the best result is to secure the attachment to the timer as shown in the drawing in order to produce the most effective spark, but it will be evident that the device will Work with efficiency at other parts of the engine or associate machinery where a constant supply of lubricating oil is necessary. The removing of the foreign matter including the magnetic material leaves the oil in such state as to freely flow in its given path and act in the manner intende What I claim is:
1. An attachment for engines and the like comprising a container open at both ends, the cap normally closing one end, the end opposite the cap being formed with means for securinv the same to the engine so as to receive Foreign matter including magnetic material under the action of gravity, and a magnet loosely positioned in-said container removable through the end thereof when the cap has been removed.
2. In an attachment of the character described, the combination with a timer, of a casing removably connected to the bottom part of said timer, said casing having a passageway extending into the timer so as to receive foreign matter therefrom under the action of gravity, a magnet positioned in said container having a closed end bent to one side so as to be out of alinement with said passageway for permitting the passage of foreign matter including magnetic material through said passageway into said casing.
3. In an attachment of the character described, the;combination with a timer of a casing connected with said timer and provided with an opening communicating with the interior of the timer, said casing being arranged at the lowest part of the timer and extending in a downward direction therefrom so as to receive foreign matter from the timer under the action of gravity, and a substantially U-shaped magnet arranged in the casing, said magnet being formed with a closed end offset so as to be out of alinement with said opening and two legs extending toward the keeper and away from said opening.
4. In a device of the character described the combination with a timer having an opening near the bottom thereof, of an open ended container positioned with the open end thereof in the opening in' the timer, a magnet positioned in said container for retaining the loose magnetic material discharged from the moving parts of the timer, said container being positioned to receive and hold loose foreign matter from the cas ing'of the timer, said casing being positioned to receive said foreign matter under the action of gravity.
HERMAN LOUIS KEUN.
