Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Nov. 29, 1921.

Application filed July 9, 1919, Serial No. 309,694. Renewed October 3, 1921. Serial No. 505,113.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that l, CARL E. BROWN, a citizen of the United States, residing Columbus, in the county of runlrlin and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Oil-Burner, of which the following is a specification. i

The device forming the sub ect matter of this application is on oil burner of that general type in which :1 itshspcd generator is employed in connection with e box-like casing having flues through which one arm of the generator posses. Jne ob ect or the invention is so to improve structures of the kind mentioned, that the generator may be shifted transversely to cooperate with the water front or the oven of it cool: stove.

Another object of the invention is to provide novel means for limiting the longitudinal sliding movement of the generator.

,,A mechanic may work changes, within the scope of what is claimed, in the structure shown and described, without departing from the spirit of the invention. V

In the drewings:F1gure 1. is a side elevation wherein parts are broken away; Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is an end elevation; Fig. 4 is a cross section on the line 44: of Fig. 1.

The device includes a box-like casing 1 comprising it body 2 carrying it top 31loving s depending marginal flange l coacting with the body 2 to hold the top thereon against lateral movement, the top having an upstanding marginal fian e 5 adapted to retoin ashes, asbestos or the like, (not shown), for the reception of a priming charge as hereinafter described. The flange 5- carries an upstanding stop 6 located at one endof the casing. The top 3 is provided with conical lines 7 provided with transversely elongated openings 8. The numeral 9 denotes a generator in the form of o U-shaped pipe including a lower arm 10 and an upper arm 11. The lower arm 10 passes through the openings 8 in the flues 7 and is terminclly closed by a cap 12. Suitable couplings and connections 14 unite the arm 11 with a valve 15, fuel being supplied to the valve by a. flexible tube 16. Flume Spreaders 17 are mounted on the arm 11 of the generator 9 and are disposed above the fiues 7. The arm 10 of the generator 9 is provided with combustion orifices 18 located within the dues 7. The numeral 19 denotes a U- shsped support secured at 21 to the top 3 of the casing 1. The lower arm 10 of the generator 9 passes through the support 19, the support having a. straight upper edge 20 on which the upper arm 11 of the generator rests. The generator 9 is slid endwise in the openings 8 of the dues 7 until the cup 12 abuts against the stop 6. The combustion orifices 18 then are outside of the fines 7. The valve 15 is opened and a priming charge is permitted to trickle out of the orifices 18 into the ashes on the top 3. The valve 15 then is closed and the generetor 9 is moved to the right (Fig. 1) until the orifices 18 are disposed inside of the fines 7. The oil in the ashes is ignited end the generator is heated. The valve 15 then is opened and the gas is ignited at the ori- [ices 18, the gas being generated in the member 9, in a, well known Way. Air passes upwardly into the body 2 and through the fines 7, a mixture thus being produced as understood by those skilled in the art.

A salient and important feature of the device remains to be discussed. The openings 8 are not mere apertures, in which the lowererm 10 of the generator is guided for endwise sliding movement: they are elongated transversely of the structure, to such an extent that the generator 9 can be shifted transversely an appreciable amount, that is, through a distance approximating the width of the casing 1. This operation permits the generator to be shifted forwardly, to assume a posi'tion close to the water front of cook stove, or to be shifted rearwardly, to as sums a position close to the oven of the stove. During the transverse shifting movement of the generator 9, the upper arm 11 of the generator slides on the straight edge 20 of the support 19.

I claim A burner comprising a casing having a flue provided with openings; a support on the casing; and s U-shsped generator embodying an upper arm slidobly mounted on the support, and 2. lower arm slidebly mounted in the openings, the lower arm havinga combustion orifice normally located within the flue and adapted to be disposed outside of the flue when the generator is slid endWise, the openings in the flue being elongated transversely of the casing, Whereby the generator may be slid transversely from a point relatively close to one side of the casing, to a point reletively elose to the opposite side of the casing.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing CARL E. BROWN.
