. f 011. `BURNER` To all whom t may concerns.'

Be it knownythat I, ANDn'nw, BUR'rorT CLAY, J r., a citizen of the United States, -residingatBunceton,r in the county ofl Cooper o and State of l\Iissouri,h-ave invented certain.

new and *useful Improvements in, an Oil Burner, of which the following is a specifi- -cation. I

The present invention relates to an oil burner, and has for its principal object to f provide a structure wherein the oil is heated and vaporized first lbefore being mixed with air, wherein the air to be' mixed` withV the vaporized Ioil is also pre-heated.

, An important object of theinvention is'to v v provide a rburnery of this nature having superior compactness, and convenience in construction, one ,whichA is exceedingly simple," durable, et`cient and-reliable 1n use, mex-Y.V

pensivev to manufacture, and otherwise well Y adapted to'thevpurpose for which itV is designed.

VvVllith fthe above and numertms other `objects in viewas willappear as the desc-rip- 'tion proceeds, the invention'resldes in certain `novel features of construction andin the combination and arrangement of parts as will be. hereinafter more fully described and claimed. g Y

In the drawing n i Figure 1 is a top plan view of the burner embodying the vfeatures of my inventiom and Fig. 2 is a fragmentary longitudinal section therethrough. y n

Referring to the drawing in detail, it will be seen that 5 designates a pan which `is provided on its bottom with a plurality of vertical conical shaped recesses y6 with the apexes of which communicates a plurality of tubes Y 7 A conduit 8 is curved at one end and has one terminal 9 passing through the center of the bottom of the pan 5while the other end thereof extends thru a recess 10y formed in one end wall of the pan 5.

as` isv indicated at 14, andis then coupled Y. with the mixing chamber castingg11 Y suitable coupling .means 15. f A distributorjis located ing flange 20 on the base portion Ofj the outer .member 18. The'apex of the member` 17 .ter-A below ,the panfi I and includes an 'inner conical-shaped portionY 17and `an outer conical-shapedfmember 1 8.Ik

i The base endof the member 17 is provided.

with an outwardly ,exfendingnange ia'on Whi'chis adapted tores'tan inwardly ,extend-v minates vwithin the bore of the conduitl 8, f

while the apex portion of the member v18A is threadedly engaged as at 21 with thelower end of. the conduit.l Thepluralityoftubes 7 V pierce 'the' outer member, 18 and communimembersfl?r and 18.

wardly therefrom. WVhenthefburner is in operation, the oil iows through the pipe 13 I aboutthe conduitS .inthe coil 14 and is vaporl'zed by the heat ofthe burner in the'pan f 7o ycate vwith 'the' spacey 22`ipr`ovided" between I Y Drainfpipes,24V plerceu'themember at (the bottomportion thereofand leaddown-` 5.v The oil isi then mixed with Within the mixingnchamber .casting 11 andfi's in! jected into the 'conduit- 8 into the'distributor.

The vapor reachesthe space 22 provided bel, tween the nieinbersjl'? ,andj18'and is 'distributed to the tubes 7 and Vburns inthe recesses 6.1" `con`densation`- ofthejvapors will drain downwardly through'the-v drain lpipes The construction, operation, and utilityiof the invention, will now be clearly understoodvv withouta more. detailed description.

.It isrldesired to point out, however, that the arrangement of the parts is very compact and convenient so thaty the 'burner Vtakes up very little space vwhen in actual operation. Y

Furthermore the parts thereof rare readilyr accessible and are very simple.

The'present embodiment of the invention f has been disclosed merely by way "of examplelsince in actualpractice it attains the fea ,100 Y tures ofadvantage enumerated asdesirable in the statement of the vinvention and the above description. It willbe apparent that numerous changes inthe details of construction, and in the vcombination and arrangement of partsmay bek resorted to Without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention as khereinafter claimedkor sacrific- Having thus described my invention, what I claim `as new is I Y l. An oil burner of the'y class described including a pan, means for pre-heating the 'oil in relationto the pan, a distributor for 1 receiving the oil from said meansincluding a pair of conical-shaped members, one with in the other to provide a space therebetween, and a plurality of tubes piercing the outer member'and the bottom of the pan. i

'2. An oil burner of the class described including pan, means for pre-heating the oil 'in' relation to thevpan, a distributor for I receiving the oil from saidV means including alpair of conical shaped members, one

' l'within the otherfto provide a' space therebeincluding a tween, Ya plurality of Vtubes ypiercing the outer member andthe bottom of the pan,

` drain pipes piercing the inner member and 'inthe yother and spaced from each other, a

plurality ofptubes piercing the outer member and thebottom of thepan, drainl pipes Vpiercing the inner member at the base end from. Y z v n 4, An oil burner ofthe class described includingV a pan, a conduit extending through the bottom of the pan andfcurved to extend, beyond one end thereof, a mixing thereof ,and extending downwardly therechamber casting on thel outer end of the con'- duit, air pipes communicating with the mixing chamber casting yand extending through the pan, an oil pipe coiled about the conduit and 'communicating with the mixing chamber, a distributor at the bottom end of the conduit and below the pan including a pair of conical-shaped members, one within 'the other and spaced from each other, a Vplurality of tubes' piercing the outer member and the bottom of the pan, drain pipes piercing the inner member atthe base end thereof and extending downwardly therefrom, the inner member provided at its base end with an outwardly extending fiange, the outer member provided at its, base end VVwith an inwardly extending flange adaptedl `to rest on the firstmentioned flange.

5. An oil burner of the class described including a pan, a conduit extending through the bottom of the pan and curved to extend beyond one end thereof, a mixing chamber .casting on the outer end of the conduit, air

pipes communicating with the mixing chamber casting and extending through the pan, an oil pipe coiled aboutthe conduit and communicating` Vwith the mixing chamber, a distributorat theibottom end of the conduit and below the Apan including a" pair of conical-shaped members, one within the other, and spaced fromeach'other, a plurality ofA tubes )iercino' the outer member and the 1 b .Y bottom of the pan, drain pipes piercing the inner member lat the base end-thereofand extending downwardly therefrom, the linner member provided at its base -endwith an outwardly extending flange, the outer member provided at its base end with an inwardly extending flange adapted to rest on the first mentioned flange, the upper end of the outer member being threadedly engaged with the lower end of the conduit.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
