TIMER OILER.
Application filed march e, 1923. Serial 1%. 623,101.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that l, GORDON W. MEAD, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Sioux City, in the county of Woodbury and State of Iowa, have invented cer tain new and useful Improvements in Timer Oilers, of which the followin is a specification.
My invention has for its object the production of means for automatically lubricating the ignition timers of motor vehicles, which, it is understood must be frequently lubricated, but it is invariably neglected when required to be done manually, soon resulting in the contacting elements of the timer becoming so worn as to be ineflicient or undependable.
Furthermore, the invention provides an automatic lubricating system for timers which is simple and inexpensive in construction and installation, yet thoroughly efficient and dependable in operation.
The above and other objects and advantages I successfully attain in the embodiment hereinafter described, defined in the appended claims and illustrated in the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification and in which like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views, of which,'
Fig. 1 is a fragmentary front elevation of a vehicle motor equipped with the device of my invention;
Fig. 2 is a fragmentary side elevat1on of the same;
Fig. 8 is an enlarged front elevation of the lubricant container and associated parts, parts being cut away;
Fig. 4 is a plan of the same, and
Fig. 5 is a side elevation of the container support. 7
The motor fragmentarily illustrated comprises the cylinder block, 6, and the timer casing, 7, covering and coacting with the usual rotating head (not shown), and mounted to be oscillated to advance and retard the ignition through the medium of the usual link rod, 8, controlled by other link age (not shown) from the driversseat.
Above the timer I mount a suitable 'Oll container, 9, removably supported on a projection, 10, (Fig. 5) on a suitable bracket, 11, secured to the cyllnder block and having a retaining band, 12, enco-mpassmg the container.
Projecting vertically through the container, 9, is a valve-guide tube, 14, enclosmg a needle-valve, 15, coacting with a suit able seat, 16, in a fitting, 17, coupled by a flexible duct, 18, with a nipple, 19, threaded into the usual oil-hole, 20. i
The valve is held normally yieldably seated by a compression spring, 21, interposed between a suitable head, 22, on the guide-tube and a boss, 23, on the needlevalve. The tube, 14, is apertured as at 24 to admit oil from the container, and the container is provided with a filling opening, 25, in its top.
To the upper end of the needle-valve is pivoted a lever, 26, having heels, 28, which alternately fulcrum on the head, 22, to lift the needle valve when the lever is oscillated.
The lever, 26, is connected with the timer-controlling link, 8, by a rigid link, preferably consisting of two rod sections, 29, interconnected by a turn-buckle, 30, whereby the link, 29-29, may be so adjusted that when the timer-controlling-means is in its normal position, placing the timer in normal position, the needle-valve will be seated, and when the ignition-'controlling-means is operated to advance or retard the spark, the needle-valve will be opened and oil admitted to the timer casing.
Although I have illustrated and herein described but one embodiment of the invention, I would not be understood as beinglimited to such specific construction, for various alterations may be made in the details of construction and arrangements of parts, herein disclosed, without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the following claims.
I claim- 1. The combination with a timer including its oscillating casing and controlling means of a valved lubricant container communicating with the casing, and an operative connection between the valve and said controlling means.
2. The combination with a timer includ ing its oscillating casing and controlling means, of a lubricant container, a valved feed passage between the casing and container, and an operative connection between the valve and said controlling means.
3. The combination with a timer includ ing its oscillating casing and controllin means, of a lubricant container, a valved feed passage between the casing and corn tainer, and a lever adapted to operate the valve and governed by said controlling trolling link that the valve is closed when means. the casing is in normal position and opened 10 4:. The combination with a timer includwhen the casing moves from its normal poing its casing oscillating t0 and from its sition.
normal position, and its controlling link, of In testimony wherof, I have hereunto set a valved lubricant container communicating my hand this 23 day of February, 1923. with the casing, and an operable connection so associated with the valve and the con- GORDON WV. MEAD.
