STILL.
Application mea March 2o, 1925. serial No. 16,906;
Fig. 1 is a front view of a still constructed in accordance with my invention. t
Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view of the same.
Fig. 3 is a side view, partly in section.
Fig. 4 isa plan view, with Ythe container removed.
Fig. 5 is a broken, sectional view of'one end of a tubular container.
Y This invention relates to improvement'in stills particularly adapted for retningpetroleum or chemical compounds. In treating material in a still, itis' desirable that the heat should be evenly developed beneath the container, and the object of this invention is.to so form the top of the lire-box that the heat, as it reaches the container, will be equalized, and the invention consists 1n the construction as hereinafter described and'l particularly recited in the claims. v
In carrying out my invention, I employ a container 10, herein shown (in Fig. 3) as a long, cylindrical container, suitably supported between side walls 111 and 12, so as to form a chamber 13 between the bottom of the container and the top of theiire-box 14. This top of the fire-box is divided into a plurality of sections, herein vrepresented as three 'fin number. The first zone 15 is formed from siliceous material i-n one of its various forms, and is relatively thick, so
as to resist radiation of heat `from the, front part of the fire-box Where the burner enters, 'preferably7 through a mouth 16. The second zone 17 1s comparatively thin and formed from siliceous material, while the third zone 18 is formed with a series of openings 19, through which flames from the burner' may directly pass into the chamber 13, through which they extend forward into the flue 20.
The section 15, which tends to resist radiation, is over the front portion of the fire-box, where the greatest heat exists; the zone 17 over the central part, where there is less degree of heat, but being relatively thin, will give the desired radiation into .the chamber 13; while the zone 18, provided with holes, permits the direct action of the flames against the rear part of the container, and by thus passing forward, equalizes the heat in the chamber 13, sov as to maintain substantially the same temperature throughout the length of the container.
As herein shown, the fire-box is divided by longitudinal partition v2l forming two separate fire-boxes, and it is obvious, without.
illustration, that the ynumber of lire-boxes may be increased as desired, according to the size of the container. But in every case,
the top of the lire-box or boxes will be.
formed in zones, giving different degrees of radiation into the container-chamber, and it is also obvious that more than three zonesl might be employed of different substances, so as to' vary the radiation and equalize the heat in the container-chamber.
Instead of using a cylindrical container, Ivrmay use a tubular container, as shown in Fig. 5 ofy the drawings, which, like a tubular boller, has a plurality of tubes 23 mounted in headers 24, and through which tubes the material to be heated will circulate.
As before stated, any approved form of burner -may be employed, but in any case, the top of the fire-box will .have dierential radiant properties upward toward the surface ofv the container 1n a substantially-direct line. At the same ti'me, provision is made for a practically perfect consumption of the uel used in heatlng.
I claim: v
1. In a still, the combination of a container substantially horizontally disposed, a fireb'ox having a top in. spaced relation to the bottom of thecontainer, a burner at the forward end ofthe irebox, the top of the irebox being divided in zones of heat-conducting ualities of. various degree, the zone nearest t e burner being the least heat-conconducting and the zones more remote from the burner` progressively reater heat-conducting, for the purpose o making the said top uniformi radiant. Y
2. In a stil, the combination of a con'- tainer substantially horizontally disposed, la firehox having a top in spaced relation to the bottom of the container, a lburner at the forward endof the irebox, the topof the irebox being divided in zones of heat-conducting qualities of .various degree, the zone nearest ythe'burner being the least heat-conducting, the zones more remote from the burner progressively greater heat-conducting, and those furthest removed from the burner {toi-med withperforations, for the purpose of making the ,said top uniformly radiant.
'3. In a still, the combination of a container, a iirebox having a top. in spaced relationto the bottom of the container, the said container being substantially horizontally disposed and being supported above maiala the said rebox sowas to form. a Chamber between them, a burner ai; tbe forward end of the rebox', 'tbetop of the irebox being;
- divided in zones of heat-conducting qualities vpose of making; the said top uniformly radiant.
Lin a stili, the combination of a container substantially horizonaiiy disposed, a
Lemme rebox having a top lin spaced relation to the bottom of the container, a burner at the -iforward end of the firebox, theop of the iirebox being divided in three zones, lthe zone nearest the burner being relabivelyl thick, the zone adjacent to it and. further away from the burner being relatively thin,
and" the zone furthest removed from the burner formed with perforations.,
In testimony whereof, have signed this specification, A
