It is believed obvious that the present'in vention prevents such overheating and/or deposit of carbon.
One object of the invention is to prevent overheating of part of a rotary burner.
Another object is to prevent .depos'itsof carbon on an overheated portion of a rotary burner.
Another obiectis to-pro-vide means for supplylng ,a protective fluid to a rotary burner. I r

The left hand end of rotary burner head 8 is.
known as the nose plate 33 and this nose plate is exposed to radiant heat. If desired, nose plate 33 may be supplied with orifices 34 suitably spaced therein, but in other cases orifices 34 may be;
eliminated completely. I
Each of arms 9 has a radial passage 35 receiving gas from head 8 through opening 38 and Operation The operation of the burner is obvious. Rotary burner head 8 is rotated either by jet propulsion from jet IE or by motor II, or both.
draw air from right to left through conduit 3 in wall I which flow of air may be controlledby shutter 4 if desired. Arms 9 may or may not be shaped as fans or propellers to draw air if fan blades iii are employed for the purpose. However, fan blades 10 may be eliminated completely if arms 9 are shaped as fan blades.
The gas for distribution enters through inlet '28 and passes between tubes 18 and 22 into head 8 and openings 36 from which it passes through radial tubes 35 and out jet orifices 15. Upon ignition, a large ball of flame is formed about nose plate 33 and radiant'heat from that ball of flame tends to overheat nose plate 33 and cause 'gas coming from 28 into rotary head 8 to deposit carbonaceous material on the inside of nose plate 33. Such carbonaceous material would seriously reduce the heat transfer through nose plate 33 and probably result in the ball of flame melting the nose plate.
However, as provided in the present invention, a cooling fluid, preferably steam, from a source (not shown) enters through conduits 29, 22, and 32 into the space adjacent nose plate 33. This cooling fluid has two functions. The first function is to carry heat away from nose plate 33. The second function is to blanket nose plate 33 so that combustion gases inside rotary head 8 can not reach the nose plate. These two func-v tions are aided by baiile 3| which aids in maintaining a line of demarcation between the gas and the cooling fluid, makes the cooling fiuid pass against the inside surface of nose plate 33."
The cooling fluid may escape from the space between baflie plate 3i and nose plate 33 and/or 'through openings 34. By properly balancing the gas and cooling fluid pressure, it is possible to have the cooling fluid occupy all of the space forward of plate 3| and to escape out holes 34. In
"some instances it may be preferable however,
to have a little of the cooling fluid also escape through jets I5 or to have a little of the gas also escape through holes 34,
In some instances, with suitable cooling fluids, holes 34 may be eliminated and the cooling fluid allowed to escape from the chamber forward of bafile plate 3! so as to mix with the gas and pass entirely out of jet holes I5.
Any suitable non-carbon containing gas or vapor may be employed as the cooling fluid. The term non-carbon containing is meant to contrast with the term hydrocarbon gases, which are carbon containing gases.
While a specific embodiment of my invention has been described and illustrated for purposes of explanation of the invention, it is obvious that many other embodiments will lie within the scope of the present invention and that many changes in size, proportion, and arrangement of parts, and substitutions of equivalents may be made without departing from the present invention, the scope of which is defined only in the following claim.
Having described my invention, I claim: A rotary burner comprising in combination a burner head, being hollow in at least its forward end portion; an internally concave cover plate closing the forward end of said burner head; burner arms extending radially from points on said burner head adjacent said cover plate; passage means extending from the hollow portion of said burner head outwardly through said burner arms to substantially the end of each said burher arm; outlet means extending between said passage means and the exterior of each said burner arm through the walls of said arms; a first conduit for gaseous fuel under pressure rotatably mounted in anti-friction bearings, said conduit being rigidly connected to the rear end of said burner head so as to form a gas-tight seal and extending coaxially therethrough to said hollow head portion; a second conduit for non-carbon forming cooling gas under a relatively higher pressure than said fuel, smaller in diameter than said first conduit, extending longitudinally through said first conduit and said hollow head portion into the concavity of said cover plate, said second conduit being rigidly spaced from and secured to the walls of said first conduit so as to form an annular passage therebetween; and an annular bafile member, smaller in diameter than the adjacent diameter of said cover plate, rigidly aifixed to the end of said second conduit within said cover plate so as to provide communication between said second conduit and a chamber formed within said cover plate through the central opening in said baflie and so as to provide communication between said chamber within said cover plate and the hollow head portion in back of said bafile only through the annular space between the periphery of said bafiie and the wall of said cover plate.
