PATENT OFFICE.
BYRON B. EATON, OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA.
IMPRO VE MENT IN OIL-CANS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 146,582, dated January 29, 1874; application filed December 11, 1873.
To alLwhom it may concern:
Be it known that I, BYRON B. EATON, of the city of Indianapolis, county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented an Improvement in Oil-Cans, of which the following is a specification:
The nature of the invention consists, first, in the apparatus whereby the spout-valve is operated, in manner and form as hereinafter set forth; and, second, in the combination of an oil-can and a lantern for the purpose, and in the way hereinafter described.
The principal object of the invention is to provide a more convenient can for oiling locomotive-engines in the dark, though it may be applied to many other uses.
Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings is a side view of my device complete; Fig. 2, a perpendicular axial section showing the apparatus for working the valve 0 of the oil-spout B. D is an oil-can, of any convenient size, to be constructed as shown in the drawing. The rod b passes through the stuffing-box O, and connects by a hook with the lever d c. This lever d c is bent so as to form two adjacent sides of a rectangle, and is pivoted at the apex of its angle. The spiral springf holds it in the position represented in the drawing.
The rod a. of the valve 0 connects with the arm 0 of the lever 11 c with a hook, the whole of this part of the device being as shown in Fig. 2, so that when the operator presses his thumb upon it the valve 0 will slide up above the oil-spout B, and so the oil can flow freely out. When the thumb is withdrawn the spring f draws back G to its original position, so that the oil will not pass it.
In this condition, as a locomotive-engineers oil-can, the device would be incomplete, be-
cause many times the machinery of the locomotive must be oiled upon the road in the dark, and in such a case it would be very diflicult to lubricate all the various intricate parts of the machine without proper light.
To obviate this difficulty, a lantern represented by F of Fig. 1 has been attached to the oil-can. This lantern is provided with a lamp at E, and an illuminating lens at m. The chimneys K and K are. provided, so that in whatever position the lantern may be the smoke will escape without blacking or obscur ing the lens m. The lantern is pivoted upon the can, so that if the lantern is left free it matters not in what position the can may be placed the light will always shine upon the oil-spout B. Thus, when the engineer desires to oil his machinery in the night, there will be a suflicient light in the proper place for him to easily accomplish his object.
This device is used as any other oil-can,-ex cept as is hereinbefore described.
I claim- 4 1. The combination of the stufling-box c, the rod b, the lever e, the spring f, the rod a, the valve 0, and the oil-spout B, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. The combination, with the lantern F, pivoted to the oil-can D, of the lens on, the lamp E, and the chimneys K and K, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing speci- I fication, I have hereunto set my hand this 18th day of February, 1873.
BYRON B. EATON.
