NpModelJ" UNi'rnD STATES PATENT' @rnrcno WILLIAM BRUENING, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
LAM P-WICK ATTACHMENT.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 235,504, dated December 14., 1880.
' I Application filed September 27, 1880. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM BRUENING, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements inLamp-Wick Attachments, of which the following is a specification.
My invention refers to improvements in lamp-wick attachments which provide auxiliary wicks to act as feeders to the main wick and the object of my invention is to provide an auxiliary wick-holder which can be readily attached to any lamp, and which is not suspended from the main wick.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 represents a lamp-burner with my attachment. Fig.2 represents the same with the attachment in section and unscrewed. Fig. 3 shows the auxiliary wick-holder placed upon an inner shoulder of the cap of a lamp-bowl. Figs. 4, 5, 6, 7 show ditferent washers for holding the auxiliary wicks.
Similar'letters refer to similar parts.
a, is the lower end of a lamp-burner, of the usual construction, with an outside screwthread, by which the burner is generally screwed into the metallic cap on the top of the lamp-bowl.
b is a metallic co1lar,with an outside thread to fit the capof the lamp-bowl, and with an inside thread to screw upon the lower end, a, of the burner. This collar b has an interior shoulder or projection, c. Awasher or frame, 01, fits into this collar 1), in which it turns freely, and is supported by a shoulder or inner projection, 0. To this washer the auxiliary wicks e are attached. It also has an opening or hole through which the main Wick 10 passes, the auxiliary wicks being so adjusted as to come in contact with the main wick. The main wick is 'passed through the opening in the washer, then the collar passed over the several wicks, as shown in Fig. 2, and then screwed up against the burner, as shown in Fig; 1..
Since the washer turns freely in the collar, the wick-w is not twisted while the parts are screwed together, as it would be if the auxiliary wicks were fastened to the screw-collar or to the cap of the lamp-bowl.
Fig. 3 shows the auxiliary lamp-wick holder placed upon the shoulder a of the cap f of a lamp -bowl. In this case the cap actually takes the place of the above-described separate collar.
The washer or frames for holding the auxiliary wick or wicks may be made in any convenient manner. They may be flat disks which are supported on the whole periphery, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, with a hole in the center for the passage of the main wick, or they may be made of wire with bearing-points over the whole periphery, as in Fig. 7, which shows a wire frame for auxiliary Wicks for a round wick, the outer circle forming the circular support for the frame, while to the inner circle the auxiliary wicks are attached, leaving a round opening for the round main wick to pass through 5 or the wire frames may have but three or more bearing-points arranged in a circle, on which points the frame rests and revolves in the collar, as shown in Figs. 4 and 5.
The flat disk may also have a short cylindrical projection, to which the auxiliary wicks are attached, leaving an opening for the passage of a round wick, as shown in Fig. 6.
In all of these modifications the auxiliarywick attachment consists of a flat disk or frame of a circular shape, or with bearingpoints arranged in a circle, so that the disk or frame will be supported by the annular shoulder of the collar or of the lam p-cap, the auxiliary wicks being suspended from the disk or frame in such a position as to come in contact with a main wick passed through an opening in the disk or frame.
I am aware that prior to my invention auxiliary wicks have been attached to lamps, and I do not broadly claim an auxiliary-wick attachment; but
What 1 claim is- 1. An auxiliary-wick attachment consisting of a fiat disk or frame of a circular shape, or with bearing-points arranged in a circle, with an opening for the main wick and with one or more auxiliary wicks attached, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
2. The combination, in a lamp, of a screw- :00
