.Application filed May, 8,
. My invention relatesto an improvement in burnercontrols'forbrooders and the like.
The present invention is a valve employed in conjunction with a canopy, burner. and o l supply, and made readily accessible to the operator from the outside of the canopy for the perfect control of the oilfeed to the flame. f In short, the most important feature of this invention is a valve extending through the canopy in position to be adjusted by the Toperatorwhile looking at the burner through the canopy. V T This invention includes. a burner, a standpipefrom which the burner is supported, a canopy substantially enclosing the standpipe and ,burner,-and.a valve for controlling the oil 'passageto the, burner, and havingfla stern extending through the canopy, so that' access may be gained to it from the outside of the canopy while the operator is Watching the. flamebf the burner. v V
This invention further consists in other details that will be described in the more I detailed description of theinvention.
In the accompanying drawings Fig. 1 is a sectional view.
Fig. 2 is an enlarged view. of the valve and surrounding parts.
Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig.1 through cone-shaped canopy, the canopy being shown on a somewhat smaller scale.
A, represents a canopy'which may be of cone shape but, for obvious reasons, preferably has a flat top, as illustrated in Fig. 1. The numeral 1 is a hollow casting to which the union 2 is secured. The standplpe 3 extends upwardly from the union to a casting 4 to which it is connected; and this cast ing is fitted to a hole'5 formed therefor in the top of the canopy.
The valve-seat 6 is seated in the top of the casting 1 and has the transverse openings 6' therethrough, and the valve 7 is screwthreaded and adapted to turn in a thread in the valve-seat for controlling the passage of oil through the longitudinal opening 7 and the transverse openings 6, as shown,
in Fig. 2. n
This valve is extended up through the stand-pipe in the form of astem 8 to a handle 9 at the top above the canopy by which it is turned from the exterior of the canopy, and a pointer 10 on the stem 8 above the casting 4 indicates the position of the valve 1922. Serial m; 559,433
casting4, so that it can always be brought back'tothe exact viously set; l
A straight pipe 11 screws into the union 2, whichmextends horizontally to the outer side ofthe burner 12, as shown in Fig. 1, so that the oil is preheated by the radiation from the, burner before enteringthe oil cup of the latter, and as a means for facilitating cleaning this out, if necessary, the, end is closed by a plug lg screwed into it. By removing this'occasionally, the pipe is easily cleaned.
Oil is supplied to a valve, andthrough the valve to the burner by a pipe 14 leading from the float chamber 15 and the oil .reservoir 16 resting thereupon; and-this float chamber is raised and lowered by the nut 17 "on the screw 18 in order'to regulate the I point at which it was pre (so-f Cit The canopy preferably rests the oil to a predetermined point in the bottom of the oil groove of the burner. The valve 7 1s then closed, and the burner is primed and generated as, is customary.
After the burner is generated, it is possible to control the flame absolutely by means of the valve 7, and with this combination it is possible to maintain a very small flame. With this combination, it is possible to dispense entirely with Vaporizers, because the oil is sufliciently preheated by extending the pipe 11, close to the burner and across .to the furthermost side, thereby preheating the oil before it gets to the burner. Carbon formation in the burneris practically eliminated by the use of this construction,fand by the elimination of the vaporizer, and any slight accumulation that does take placewill bein the pipe '11 beneath the burner, and can be easily removed by unscrewing the plug 13. v
By means of the dial on top of the casting. and the pointer 10, the operator knows just how far to turn the valve. For instance, the valve 7 is closed while generating :the burner, as previously stated, and when the burner is ready for the oil the valve opened until the pointer is at the same numher, at which it waspreviously set, thus giving the identical size of flame as before.
By reason of the handle 9 of the valve being The flame will always respond instantly to.
the valve adjustment after the burner shall have been fully generated.
The valve being located beneath the canopy where it is always kept warm, will greatly assist in maintaining a uniform flow of oil.
In Fig. 3, the canopy is shown in the form of a cone instead of with a flat top, the window 19 sloping instead of being horizontal to conform to the shape of the canopy; in other respects this form does not differ in any way from the construction shown in Fig. 1. 1 a
I claim: 7
1. The combination with a canopy, of a burner located beneath the canopy, a standpipe connected with the top of the canopy, a support for the burner extending laterally from and carried by the stand-pipe and a valve for controlling the supply of fuel to the burner having a valve stem extending through the stand-pipe to a point above and exteriorly of the top of the canopy.
2. The combination with. a canopy, ofa burner located beneath the canopy, a support for the canopy, a support for the burner extending laterally from andcarried by the canopy support, a valve for controlling the supply of fuel to the burner having the stem thereof extending through the canopy support and through the top of thecanopy, and a window located in the top of the canopy adjacent the valve stem'so that the operator can watch the flame at the burner through the window while manipulating the valve. I v I v 3. The combination With a canopy, of a burner located beneath the canopy, a standpipe connected with the top of the canopy for supportingthe same, a support for the burner extending laterally from and carried bythe stand-pipe, a valve for controlling the supply of fuel to the burner having a stem extending through the stand-pipe to a .point above and exteriorly of the top of the canopy, and a Window in the top of the canopy adjacentthe valve stem and in a position such that the operatorcan watch the flame at the burner through the window while manipulating the valve.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
