HYDROCARBON' :iBTJRITER:A
Application ledJanuary 6, 1925. Serial 1\1'o..865fv This .invention.,relatesto a hydrocarbon burner adapted .to' be received rin thefre box of'stoves, furnaces, or thelkeforheating the same, and aims to `provide a novel and improved device for..-vaporizing liquid fuel, such'as' kerosene, crude oil, etc. prior tothe ignition thereof, so as to. insure complete combustion andV hence an economyin the consumption of fuel, Whichcwillwminimize the depositof vcarbon that 'tends `to reduce the efficiency of a device of` this character.
Another object yoffthe` invention is to provide; a .gas-generating .chamber arranged above a burner, said chamber beings@ con.- `strncted that the flames from the burner willfpass therethroughin vorder to ucause the complete vap orfization ofx'th'e hydrocarbon liquidV passing'- therethrough tof the. burner.
It isalso another object1 oftheyinvention -to provide a hydrocarbon yburner ofthe kind indicated, which isz; simple and substantial in construction, which can; bev manufactured economically, and which will .be thoroughly efficient land practicaleinuseav With. the.foregoingrandx-.other objects in view, which will be apparent.y as the description. proceeds, the i inventionl-resides-in the constructionand` arrangement Kof parts, as hereinafter described and claimed; it being @understood lthat changes: can -be vmade within the scope of what is claimed Without? departing. from l the spirit of the \invention.fl.
The invention isy illustrative in the raccompanying drawings, wherein 1:-
Figure 1 1 is a side elevatioirof-iny .limproved-device,` showing 4a pairof burners arranged for nse, onewthereofy being shown in section,

Figuren? is a stillzffurther modified'form lof the iinventi'on,` f showing va pair. -of `burners f arranged-.side by sided Referring Ato the lform ofy 'my innen-tion illustrated in Figuresal to 5 inclusive, a 4pair of` hydrocarbon i burners generally. `indicated .f l"by thei letter is1sh'o-Wne adaptedto' be 'carried by an elongatedy Span Said burners are the'. pan or plate, said fsupporting`-membersA also havingthei-r' lower endsfiangedbut'- wardly. at right angles to provide base 'plates 1G for engaginga grateor otherelem'entin a -ire box in order to properly support the device; `theprovisionof theslotsli in the arms 13 itwill be notedfthatth'e pan or i plate 10` may be adjusted to the desired height.
At each end of the pan or uplate'lOan opening 17 is provided for receivingjthe lower endsy ofpipes 18, eachiof said pipes adapted to be secure'd`` in said openings by a Vpair of binding); nuts 19 threaded on. said pipes .and arrangedon the opposite sides" of the panor plate-10. Attachedto1 the pipes. .18 adjacent the lowe`r`binding nuts19l are coupling aneinbers'QO 'liavingftheir 'lower ends reducedin size for receivm'gand'retaining the` outwardly flared ends 21v of'thetubes The tubes 22 extendl towardseach other as they extend away' fro'mthe panyl() and have attached to such extending ends valves 23 whichin turn arewattached" toa pipe 2liA by means of T connection members'." The pipe Qatlias one endl thereof'secured' to' a liquid fuel supplyA pipe, 26 leading fromthe main fuel reservoir (not'shown), whilethe opposite end of said pipe 24 is closed by a closure cap 27 attached toone of the T- shaped -`'connection members Q5. The=pipe 24, .Tlmem-bers .25, and valves 23' are 'arranged t0 be, carried by a plateorrdoor .28 ofl the stove or furnace in which the burners are mounted.V By the provision of thel valves Y 23 theow off liquid fuelfr'inthe"` fuel supplyinggtube .26 yto the pipes -l8`can be regulated;
Theupper ends .of the pipes 18 are turned inwardly at right angles, as 'at`29', 'and arey ithreaded or Aotherwise attached" to oneend .of the gas. generating r members '30, which consists *of a rectangular block havingcylindricaipassageways formed there-in conforming to `the general 4rectangular 'shape of the` block, that is, the passageways have parallel side portions 3l extending lengthwise of the block, for communicating at their opposite ends with cross portions 32 arranged at the opposite ends of the block. The various passageways may be formed by drilling into the blocks from various sides thereof and closing the outer ends of said drilled portions with threaded plugs, as indicated by the numeral 34.
The pipes 18 are attached to the blocks or gas generating members and are in communication with one of the cross passageways 32 intermediate said passageways ends, while pipes 35 are attached in a like manner in communication with the other cross passageway at the opposite ends of each block. The pipes 35 are bent in U- l shaped form, with the lower ends 36 thereof extending under the blocks 30 and are adapts ed to be supported by angle brackets 37 attached to the pan l0. On the upper sides of each of the portions 36 of the pipes are provided a pair of orifices 38 from which flames or adapted to be projected, while on the outer ends of said portions 36 are attached closure caps 39.
Arranged directly above the orifices 38 are the blocks or gas generating members 3() which have provided in the central portions thereof between the passageways therein a plurality of openings 40 extending entirely therethrough and being slightly reduced in size as they extend upwardly through the blocks, in order to provide vertical, tapered apertures for permitting the iiames projected from the orifices 38 to pass through the blocks, thus thoroughly7 heating the same and consequently causing the complete vaporization of the liquid fuel passing through the passageways 32 and 33 in the blocks.
Directly below the portions 36 of the pipes 35 the pan 10 is slightly depressed to form receptacles il lfor receiving asbestos wicks 42. At each side of the receptacles ll an elongated opening 43 is provided to permit air to pass upwardly through the pan or plate. Said openings 43 have upturned fianges il extending entirely around the same for preventing hydrocarbon liquid deposited on the pan or plate from passing through said openings 43. Between th-e two burners B and at each corner of the pan or plate 10 are provided additional openings having like flanges for a like purpose, the opening between said burners being designated by the numeral 45, while the ones in the corners of the pan or plate are indicated by the numeral 46.
In order to render my device more efficient and practical in use, the blocks or gas generating members 30 and the pipes 18 and 35 are constructed of brass material, as I have found that brass is an excellent heat conductor as well as a material that will minimize the c-arbonization of the fuel while passing through said members.
ln Figure 6 I have illustrated a one burner apparatus. Such a device could be used where the compartment in which the apparatus is to be placed is rather small, as well as in places where less heat is desired.
A further modified form of the invention is shown in Figure 7. rlhis iform shows a pair of burners utilized as in the main form of my invention, but the burners are arranged side by side instead of to the ends of each other. By such construction the apparatus is reduced in size and is in a form that will render it adaptable to different shaped fire boxes.
In operation, the valves 23 are opened until a few drops of hydrocarbon liquid fuel are deposited on the asbestos wicks 42. The valves 23 are then closed and the liquid fuel on said wicks ignited, which will heat the gas generating members and the portions 36 of the pipes 35, thus vaporizing the liquid fuel contained therein. As soon as gas is generated, the valves 23 are again opened,
Vand by turning said valves the flames yfrom the orifices 38 can be regulated. When the gas generating members are thoroughly heated, the liquid fuel entering same will be completely vaporized before the same enters the pipe 35 to pass to the orifices 38.
Having thus described my invention, what l claim as new is:
l. A hydrocarbon burner comprising a gas generating member constructed in block shaped formation so as to retain heat, said block shaped gas generating member having a passageway formed therein, a feed pipe attached to said gas generating` block member and in communication with the passageway therein, a burner pipe also attached to said gas generating member and in communication with the passageway, said burner pipe extended beneath said gas generating block member for heating the same, said block shaped heat retaining gas generating member having a series of small vertical openings extending therethrough for permitting flames from said gas pipe to pass therethrough to heat the same.
2. A hydrocarbon burner comprising a base pan, feed and burner pipes supported by said pan, a gas generating member having passageways arranged therein, said gas generating member having one end attached to said feed pipe with the passageways therein, in communication with said feed pipe while the opposite end thereof is attached to the burner pipe which is also in communication with the passageways, said burner pipe adapted to extend beneath said gas generating member for heating the same, said gas generating member having a series of relatively small vertical openings arranged therein for permitting the flames from said burner pipe to pass therethrough.
3. A hydrocarbon burner comprising a base pan, feed and burner pipes supported by said pan, a gas generating member having passageways arranged therein, said gas generating member having one end attached to said feed pipe with the passageways therein in communication with said feed pipe while the opposite end thereof is attached to the burner pipe which is also in communication with the passageways, said burner pipe adapted to extend beneath said gas generating member for heating the same, Said gas generating member having vertical openings arranged therein which are slightly tapered inwardly as they extend upwardly through the same for permitting the flames from said burner pipe to pass therethrough. In testimony whereof, I have affixed my signature.
