Description

J'. BENSON.
VAPOR BURNER.
No.186,101. Patented Jan. 9, 1877.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JOSEPH BENSON, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.
IMPROVEMENT IN VAPOR-BURNERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 186,101, dated January 9, 1877; application filed November 11, 1875.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JOSEPH BENsoN, of Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented new and useful Improvements in Vapor-Lamps, of which the following is a specification:
My invention relates to certain improvements in lamps; and consists in combining with the wick-tube projections which lie over the wick at the end, and extend below and onter the wick-tube, as will hereinafter more fully appear.
In the accompanying plate of drawings, Figure l is a vertical cross-section of a vaporlamp constructed according to my invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view, and Fig. 3 a horizontal cross-section, of wick-tube on line .10 m, Fig. 1.
In the drawings, A represents the body of a vapor-lamp, and B the wick-tube, adapted, with a cap-plate, O, to be attached and removed as ordinarily. This wick-tube B projects into the bodyA of the lamp, and it is filled and packed With granulated or pulverized mica and asbestus in equal parts or thereabout, as at D, which packing D is the wick of the lamp. a a, perforations or slits in the sides of that partE of the wick-tubeB which is within the lamp-body A. These perforations afi'ord a freer communication between the oil in lamp-body A and the wick D. b b,
projections which lie over the burning end F of the wick-tube, and from there they extend down the sides of the wick-tube B and enter the inside of the same, as shown at f, Fig. 1.
The wick, by means of the projections b and wick-tube, conducts heat from the flame to the oil in a most efficient manner, thereby greatly increasing the brilliancy and clearness of the illuminating flame. If the wick-tube does not press close to the bottom 9 of the lamp-body, then the lower end h of the wick-tube should be closed preferably with wire-gauze or a perforated cap.
Instead of using mica and asbestus combined, as herein described, for a wick-filling to the Wick-tube, mica, or asbestus alone may be used, but it is preferable to use the two together.
Having now described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
.The projections b, overlaying the burning end of and also entering the wick-tube B, substantially as described, for the purpose set forth.
JOSEPH BENSON.
