To all 'whom/vit may concern.'

-Be it known that I, Josnri-I SOHNEIBLE, a citiien of the United States, residing at 130 North Wells St., Chicago, in the countyoi l Uo'ok and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Condensers, of which the following is a specification. W

vMy invention relates to an improvement in'athe class of condensers such as are employed in the art of distillation.

TheJ lprimary object of my invention is t1. provide a construction of condenser whenr by the vapors to be condensed shall bc caused, in their course through the device, to have thorough and prolonged intimate con tact with the cooling,r medium..

In the acJ mpanylng drawings, Figure l is a broken in vertical sectional elcvution of a condeor embodying my inven tion; Fig. 2 is a planyiew and Fig. 3 is a view in elevation of thcame.

The body or casing of the condenser is preferably but not necessarilyb ilt of a desired number of annular section 1, shown of preferred cylindrical form and each being provided about its u per end with a flange 5. The flange is o y general V-shape in cross-section and projects beyond the upper end of the section to adapt the sections to lap or interfit one a ainswtkthe other within the confines of the ange, as shown; and the sections are shown to be held together by a coupling-medium, of which only one is represented in Fig. 1,.though a plurality thereof are used about the' structure in practice. This coupling medium is a bolt-rod 6 carryin nuts on its opposite ends, against which a ut hooks 7 on sleeves 8 slidably surroundin the rod. One hook engages the out one section@ in the assembly of sections, andthe other hook en ages the flange on another section; and afgter being thus engaged, by tightening either or both of the nuts the coupled sections are tightly drawn together.

An annular baille-plate, or balde-ring 9 extends from theinner wall of each section in doWnwardlyQinclined direction toward the center. Below each baille 9, except the lowormost, are rigid guide-venes l0 risin in circular series from a concavo-convex de ector-plate, withswhich they are inte al; and alternate vanesire rigidly fastene at their inner uppercQrner-portions to the bailie by clips 11 bolted through bosses 12 on the Letterratent- Patented Feb. 1, 1921.

vanes to suspend the vane-anddeector plate structure on the ballle-ring. A condenser-coil 15 is supported to extend in the interior 4ofeach section 4 about the annular space in the baiilering 9 below it. The terminals of the coils lead through stuing-box and ,gland devices of ordinary construction shown to be provided at corresponding points on the successive casing-sections 4, and the outlet-end of the uppermost coil is connected with the inlet-end of the next lower coil by an elbow or return-bend 16; and so on throughout the series of coils, to render them intercommunicatin The cooling medium employer?, which may be cold water, brine or other medium, flou downwardly through the series of coils and is thus circulated throu h the interior of the ,oxidensercasing, and t le vapors to be condeiised risc therein. In rising, the vapors lirst encounter the lowermost baille-ring, and .passing through the latter they circulate about the adjacent coil 15 and are spread by the adjacent deflector plate 13, whence they pass through the varies 10 immediately above it, which tend to spread them in their course and enhance the cooling influence thereon of the next coil; and from these vanes the vapors seek their outlet through the next higher annular baille and proceed to contact with tl t next cooling-coil, whence they are deflected o enter the uppermost series of varies to hda in brought into contact with the final coilbefore discharging from the condenser to a suitable receptacle (not shown).

I realize that copsiderable variation is possible in the detai of construction thus specifically shown an described and I do not intend by illustratin n single s ecific or referred embodiment o my invention to be mited thereto, my intentiongbeing in the followin claims to claim protection for all the nove ty there may be in my invention as broadly as the state of the art wil! permit I claim:

l. A condenser comprising a easing provided internally with a baille-ringe cooling coil supported above said ring, and a deector-plate above said coil of renter diameter than the diameter of the ba e-ring opening and overlap ing said opening.

2. A con enser comprising a casing provided internally with a baille-ring, a cooling-y eoil supported above said ring, a deeetorplate above said coil and series of idevanes between the defiector-plpte und ale ring.

3. A condenser comprising a casln r rovided internally with a series of sgaoe Kellie-ringe, a cooling-coil above each utilering and extending about the opening therein, a deilcctor-plate above each coll and guidewines between each deflector-plate and baille-ring.

4. A condenser comprising u. casing formed of a series o*c annulnr sections, bafflerings at intervals inthe casing-Sections, de- Hector-'plates nbove the buffle-rings, guide' vaines extending between said plates and rings, and cooling-coils suported inthe oasing-sections between said rings and plates.

5. A condenser comprising :i casing formed of a eeries of annular sections, bam@ rine at intervals in the canin -sections and inc ining downwardly tower the centers thereof, deector-plates above the baillerings, guide-vanos extending between said plates and rings, and intercomniunicating cooling-coils supported in the casing-sections between said ringe and plates.

6. A eondenser compriing u casing formed (if a, series of annular sections, baille rings at intervals in the casing-Sections, deflector-plntes'nbove the baille-rin guidevanes extending between said pates n'nd rings, coolingcoils supported in the casingsections between said rings and plates, und return-bonds connecting the coils in succession externally of the cnsin JOSEPH SHNEIBLE.
