n FIRE ANNIHILATOR.
No. 257,592. Patented May 9,1882.
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
TSIDOR KITSEE, OF CINCINNATI, OHIO.
FIRE-ANNIHILATOR.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 257,592, dated May 9, 1882.
Application filed January 17, 1882. (No model.)
T 0 all whom it may concern Be it known that I, IsIDoR Krrsnn, a citizen of the United States, residing at Cincinnati, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Fire-Anuihilators, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to that class of fire-.
annihilators in which chemicals are held in separation, and are intermingled in a common vessel when brought into action by rupturc offusible connections; and my present invention is an. improvement on the devices described in an application filed on or about the 7th day of November, 1881, and for which Letters Patent have been granted to me.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, Figure l is ai'ront view of my invention, partially in section. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same on the line y y of Fig. 1, showing in dotted-lines the vessel inverted. Fig. Sis a vertical section through the vessel, showing the manner-of storing chemicals in separation. Fig. 4 is a detailed perspective view of one of the spring-pressed trunnions in place in the standard. Fig. 5 is a top view of the under post and its attached spring.
Similar letters of reference indicatelike parts in each figure.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, A is an inclosed vessel, provided with internal chambers or shelves, at a a, on which are stored required quantities of chemicals in separation. This vessel has trunnions B located below the center of the vessel A, leaving the upper longer and heavier than the lower part. The trunnions B rest within spring-pressed bearings b upon standards 0 O. Under the vessel A is a short post, 1), provided with spring d, against which the upper part of the vessel A will strike and rebound when it swings, the springs d and b counteracting against each other, causing the vessel A to oscillate to and fro, and thus thoroughly intermingle the chemicals within the vessel.
Eis a flexible pipe which leads from the vessel A into a distributing-pipe, F, which is led through the rooms of a building. This pipe F has openings f for the escape of the fire-extinguishing gas generated by the admixture of the chemicals when the vessel A is set in motion.
G is a. wire or cord which is fastened in any suitable manner to the vessel A and keeps it in a vertical position, as shown in the drawings. This cord or wire G has fusible connections g. It is led from its connections to the vessel A through the various parts of a building. When, by the rise of temperature, one of the fusible connections becomes melted, the vessel A is at once released and swings from its vertical position, strikes against the spring d, and swings backward and forward by the action of the springsb and d. The chemicals that have been held in separation within the vessel A thus become commin'gled and form a fire-annihilating gas, which passes through the flexible pipe E, and from thence into the distributing-pipe F, when it eventually escapes through the openings f. These openings may be closed with fusible caps, or finished in any practicable manner; but it is not necessary herein to describe the construction of the distributing-pipe F and its openings, as it forms the subject of other applications which I have made for Letters Patent.
What I claim is-- 1. A fire-annihilating device havinga swinging vessel hung on trunnions below its center, supplied with chemicals in separation,and having a flexible eduction-pipc, substantially as described.
2. In a fire-annihilating device operated by' melting of fusible connections, a swinging generator, A, having flexible eductionpipe E, said generator being provided below its 'center with trunnions B B,mounted on standards G (J, and adapted to automatically invert and .swing to and fro by action of springs b 1), surrounding said trunnions, in combination with the spring (I, substantially as described.
3. In afire-amiihilating device, the combination of a-swiuging generator, hung below its center, supplied with chemiealsin separation, and having aflexible eduction-pipe, with adistributing-pipe provided with eduction-openings, substantially as described.
4. The combination, inafire-annihilating device, of the swinging generating-vesselA, with fusible .connections G, eduction-pipe E, distributing-pipe F, and post D, having spring 0?, substantially as described.
