This invention appertains to new and useful improvements in condensers and more particularly to a condenser for condensing the water vapors of an automobile radiator.
The principal object of the present invention is to provide a simple and inexpensive device which may be readily installed in juxtaposition with respect to an internal combustion engine so that vapors from the usual radiator of the cooling system can be readily condensed.
Other important objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent to the reader of the following specification.
In the drawings- Figure l represents a fragmentary side elevational view showing the condenser in use,
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional View through the condenser,
Figure 3 is a horizontal sectional view.
Referring to the drawings wherein like numerals designate like parts, it can be seen that numeral 5 generally refers to a conventional internal combustion engine with which the usual water-cooling radiator 6 is associated. The radiator is provided with the usual filler neck 1 in which water vapors usually collect. From this neck 'I extends a tube 8 terminating at the inner side of the engine hood and on which a hose or rubber tube is connected and extends to the lower depending end IIJ of the condensing coil II which is located in the shell I2 of the condenser generally referred to by numeral I3. This coil II extends upwardly and has an upstanding upper end portion I4 which extends upwardly above the level I5 of the cooling liquid I6 in the shell I2.
Numeral Il represents a return pipe which extends upwardly to terminate in the box-like head I8 below the surface I5 of the cooling liquid I6 and in this box-like structure operates a ball I9 carried by the stem 20 of the float 2|.
Numeral 23 represents a pipe which extends through the bottom of the shell I2 and upwardly to terminate above the surface I5, the lower end of this pipe 23 is bent laterally as at 24 and then upwardly as at 25, terminating in the cage 26 for the ball 2l. This pipe 23 and ball 21 serves as a relief for excessive pressure.
A hose or other conduit 28 connects to the lower end of the pipe I1 and leads downwardly to connect to the lower leg of a Y 29 interposed between the water jacket of the engine and the intake or inlet of the radiator 6.
Thus vapors from the radiator will be condensed in the shell I2 and return to the cooling circuit of the engine.
y While the foregoing specication sets forth the invention in specific terms, it is to be understood that numerous changes in the shape, size and materials may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
Having described the invention what is claimed as new is:
1. A vapor condenser of the character described comprising a shell, a coil in the shell, an inlet pipe to the coil, one end of the coil being provided with a valvular discharge opening, an outlet pipe extending from the shell and provided @t its inner end with a float controlled valve.
2. A vapor condenser of the character described comprising a shell, a coil in the shell, an inlet pipe to. the coil, one end of the coil being provided with a valvular discharge opening, an outlet pipe extending from the shell and provided at its inner end with a float controlled valve, and a pressure release consisting of a pipe extending vertically in the shell and having its lower end disposed outwardly and provided at its outer end with a check valve.
3. A vapor condenser comprising a shell, a vapor inlet pipe, said vapor inlet being formed into a coil at the inner side of the shell, a valvular outlet at the upper end of the coil, and a pipe extending from the upper portion of the interior of the tank downwardly through the bottom of the tank and a relief valve at the lower portion of the last-mentioned pipe.
