UNITED kSTATES '..ELIE JOSEPH VERMEYEN, or orIoIsY-Ln-Ror, FRANCE.
Applicationled AprilA 11, 1922, Serial No. 551,727.
To all whom t may concern.'
Be it known that I, ELIE Josnrn VER- MEYEN,a subject of the King of the Belgians, residing at 9 Rue Thiers, Choisy-le- Roi, France, have invented a new and useful Continuous-Distillation Device, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a continuous distillation device, and has for itsobject to provide a device adapted for the continuous production of distillation gasesand for the continuous combustionbeneath the grate of the distillation gases produced.
This invention has also for its object the provision of a continuous distillation device adapted for the production of heat which f `closed by acover and any device may be may be utilized for heating water or for otherk purposes.
This distillation device comprises essentiallyV a body of cylindrical or any other appropriate form, having its base widened and pierced with openings forming holes through which the gases of combustion escape and are conducted to the'chimney.
In the accompanying drawings, which a formof the invention;
Figure l is a vertical section of a small boiler provided withy a distillationcdevice and Figure 2-is a plan'viewr ofthe device The distillation furnace according to the invention comprises essentially three parts#-4 first the base A, in which combustion takes place; second the reservoir B for the combustible material, in which the distillation takes place; and third the conduit C for the gases of distillation.
The base has the form of a truncated cone and rests at its greatest diameter upon the grate N. This widening towards the base is intended to prevent the cinders from slipping into the flues E. The wall of the base A is pierced with openings or holes through which the gases of combustion pass, and are then eliminated by the circular flue E, the collector Gand thechimney F. The dimensions of the perforated portionsy depends upon the size of the device and the kind of stove, boiler, furnace or other heating device to which the distillation furnace is adapted; that is to say the total surface of these holes is to be calculated for each specific application of the invention, slightly greater than the total surface of the openof distillation.
ings in the grate N upon which the base4 A rests. y
The reservoir for combustible material, or still Blforms the immediate extension of the base Afdescribed above. The section of the bodyB necessarily depends upon the particular application of the invention, `and it is by way of example only that the body l shown in the drawings is of cylindrical form, and has its upper part extended in the form of a funnel so that it touchesthe inner wall v'of the'y boiler and `forms, the --circular 'gases of distillation.
Theupper part of the reservoir D is4 applied to admit the introduction of combustible Vmaterial withoutfreeing a passage. forthe escape of the gases of y distillation. Care must be taken not to ll the space D which is necessary for the gases.
Finally, .the third part comprises the conduit C which .leads the gases of distillation beneath the grate N. The gases of distillation are'mixed with fresh air introduced through the vfresh air inlet K and pass through the bed of ignited combustible material where they are transformed into carbon-dioxide, thus producing an increase of calories. `In the other cases the conduit C will "serve for carrying the gases of distillation to special apparatus for other uses.
".To ystart'the distillation device,-the inventor ignites the fuel in the container 13 by means of some easily ignited material such as paper and wood, placed upon the grate A before the container B is charged with fuel.
In the drawing, H krepresents the space between two cylindrical walls of the boiler which contains water and into which pass two pipes, J and J for circulating the water contained in the said space after the principle of the thermo-Siphon.
