Description

Patented Feb. 6, 1923.
UNETED STATE$ LAWRENCE R. GARLOCK, OF LOCKPORT, NEW YORK.
FUEL.
No Drawing.
To all whom it may calmer-n:
Be it known that .I; LAWRENCE R. GAR- LocK, a citizen of the United States, residing at Lockport, in the county of Niagara and State of Newv York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fuel, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to an improved fuel, and particularly to one which may he used as a substitute for gasolene.
The objects of the invention are to provide an improved fuel, preferably a gasolene substitute, which will include comparatively inexpensive ingredients capable of being easily and quickly mixed, and one which will lend itself readily to a great many uses and particularly as a fuel for internal combustion engines.
It has been found in actual practice that a mixture containing the following ingredients, in the proportions given, produces a. very high grade fuel: benzine, 4:870; kerosene, 47.9%; ether. 3.5%, nitre .670.
The ingredients may be mixed in any particular order, and the proportions may be varied to suit climatic conditions. It is to be understood that, in specifying the proportions, I do not wish to be limitedto the same except as set forth in the appended claims.
Serial No. 4215;39.
hen used as a fuel for automobiles, I have found that 1 secure an increase of between 25 and in mileage at a saving of about 20% over the present cost of gasolene.
The petroleum derivatives form the maj or portion of the mixture and tend to give body to the same; and the action of the various other ingredients is such that the addition of the ether tends to vary the flash point of the mixture. offsetting the flash point of the kerosene. The function of the nitre is to purify the mixture, and it has. in addition, the effect of preventing the formation of carbon.
\Vhat I claim is:
1. A fuel comprising a mixture of benzine, kerosene, ether, and nitre; the benzine and kerosene being in approximately equal proportions, and the ether and nitre being in relatively small proportions.
2. A fuel comprising a gasolene substitute including the followin ingredients in ap proximately the following proportionsz'benzine, 48%; kerosene, 427.9%; ether, 3.5%; nit-re, 6%.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
