STEAM-ADMISSION CONTROL FOR' ExEAUST-STEAM INJECTORS.

Application filed April 24,1925. Serial no. 25,765.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HANS DEUTSCH, a citizen of the Republic of Austria, residing at Vienna, Austria, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Steam-Admission Control for Exhaust-Steam Injectors, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to the steam admission controlling arrangements of injectors and particularly of exhaust steam injectors worklng with exhaust steam and live steam, bymeans of which first the admission of live steam and then the admission of exhaust steam is governed in succession, thej admission member for the exhaust steam being lifted by means of a shutting off member operated by the pressure of the live steam.

The arrangements hitherto designed for this purpose have the drawback that when the steam branch to the live steam nozzle of theinjector is shut, the steam contained in this branch, which is intended to release the exhaust steam control valve is only escaping very slowly. Consequently the exhaust steam admission member will remain open for a certain time and there is an opportunity for the exhaust steam and if no exhaust steam is present for the waste gases to enter the injector.

This drawback is obviated according to the present invention by providing the steam admission member with "two valves movable relatively to each other one of said valves when closed, shutting off both steam branches, while the other valve movable relatively to the first enables the steam enclosed in one branch to pass into the other, the relative movement of this valve with respect to the shutting valve being however smaller than the greatest valve lift of the latter.

closed and is therefore in this case in its open position. 8 is the steam branch leading into the chamber 9 in which the valve 7 is arranged, 10 is the steam branch leading to the live steam nozzle 2, 11 is a steam chest for the steam admission device which can be set into communication with the injector by means of the ducts 8 and 1O; 12 is a valve that may be lifted by means of a handle 13. The steam chest 11 is provided with two chambers 14 and 15, one of them communicating with the duct 8, while from the other the duct 10 leads to the steam nozzle. Intercommunication between these chambersis provided for, but is controlled by the valve 16 which may establish it or cut it off. The valve 16 is movable on the spindle 17 the maximum displacement of said valve being however preferably smaller glan the maximum valve lift of the valve When the valve 12 first opens the steam from the boiler entering through the duct 18 flows through the steam branch 10 to the live steam nozzle, thereby pressing the valve 16 on its seat. Upon further opening movement of the valve 12 the valve 16 is dragged along by the spindle 17 and opens the passage to steam branch 8, whereby the steam entering into chamber 9 presses down the controlling valve 7 and lifts the flap valve 6. When valve 12 is shut, atmospheric pressure will instantaneously prevail in the branch 10 as the steam contained therein escapes through the branch 10, the cone 2 and the overflow valve 19. The steam enclosed in the chamber 9, the duct 8 and the chamber 14'will lift thevalve 16 and escapes through chamber 15 and the branch 10 into the open, so that very rapidly atmospheric pressure will prevail in the chambers 9 and 14 whereby the flap valve will return into its shutting position.
