UNITED STATES PATENT oFFlcE..
ARTHUR KEWLEY, ATLANTIC, IOWA.
coNDENsnR non RADIATOR CAPS.
` Application filed May 29, 1923. Serial No. 642,272.'
This invention relates 'to radiator caps and alms to provide novel meansfor condensing the steam usually generated by a motor,
when the same becomes Qverheated, the steam usually passing off through an overflow pipe.
Another object of the invention is to provide a device of this character which will.
the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it Vbeing understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, may be made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
Referring to the drawing :--k Figure l is a front elevational view of the upper portion of a radiator disclosing a cap constructed in accordance with the present invention as applied.
Figure 2 is an enlarged detail viewof the cap, 4portions thereof being broken away.V
Figure 3 is a sectional view taken on line B-Sof Figure 2.
Referring to the drawing "in detail, the reference character 5 indicates a radiator cap to which the attachment forming the subject. matter of the present invention is applied.
The cap is formed with a central opening to receive the threaded` stem 6 of the body portion 7 of the attachment, the stem 6 being hollow as'at 8 to allow steam generated in the cooling system to pass upwardly therethrough. Y Y
This body portion is preferably circular in formation, and has integral'curved hol'- low condenser tubes 9 that have their upper extremities curved outwardly as at 10 to increase the lengths of the tubes 9 and at the same time lend distinction to the aty tachment.
, As shown, the condenser tubes curve outwardly at a point adjacent to the body portion 7 providing a circular space to accommodate disks'll that are held in spaced relation by their engagement with the opposite v sides of the lugs '12, the disks being'held in' position on the lugs 12 by means of the bolts 13 that extend through suitable' openings in the lugs and disks.
A These disks may be employed `for receiv` ing the name plate of a motor vehicle or videntiiication plate the construction being such as to enhance the appearance of the usual motor radiatorV cap and at the same time act to,A condense the steam the condenser tubes.
In view of the. fact that a draftof air will be createdat the forward portion of a motor vehicle when the same is moving over a road surface, it is obviousthat the 'airwill vhave a vcooling effectv on the tubes 9 to condense the steam entering the tubes, whereuponthe condensates will be returned to the radiatorvto Which the device is ap' plied; y
A nut indicated at 1,5 is positioned on the threaded stem 6 and provides means coopera'tingl with the head 7 to cause the radiator cap to vbe clamped between the head andnut 15 to'secure the device to the cap. f
I claim l In a condenser for-use in connection with motorv vehicle radiators, a Vbody portion havhing'integral upwardly and outwardly curved tubes, the upper extremities of the tubes eX- tending an appreciable distance above the body `portion and curved outwardly, said arising in f tubes being closed at their free ends, a pair y vof spaced disks supported between the tubes,y
the peripheries of the' disks lying in spaced therethrough. y
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own,'I have hereto aiiixed my signature. f
