Ths inventionrelates to new provements and structurai refinements in gasliquid admixing apparatus, and the principal bject of the invention is to facilitate thorough and eiicient admixing of a liquid into a gas, such as for example, alcohol, gasoline, benzine, etc, into air, or the 1ke, so that-the mixture derived from the apparatus is in the required, proper state of vaporization.
This object is achieved by the provision of an admixing apparatus including a tank containing a quantity of the liquid to be admixed, asubmerged aerating unit in the liquidin the tank, and a buoyant sprayng unit fioating on the liquid, matters being so arranged that air or some other gas is delivered to the aerating unit under pressure and iscaused to bubble upwardly through the liquid in the tank, whi1e at the same time, iiquid from the tank is delivered under pressure to the sprayng unit andis dscharged thereby into the gas expelled by the aerator, so that a thorough, efficient and complete admixing of the gas and liquid occurs.
An important feature of the invention resides in the provision of means for condensing any improper1y vaporized liquid such as may 1eave the tank after the admixing operationand returning the condensation to the liquid in the tank for subsequent use.
An addtionalfature of the invention lies in its simplcty of construction, ease and convenience of operation and. in its adaptabilty to economical manufacture.
With the above more important objects and features in view and. such other objects and features as may become apparent as the specification proceeds, the invention consists essentaily in the arrangement and construction of parts as illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a vertical cross sectional view of the invention,
Figur 2 is a cross sectional view, taken substantially in the plane of the line 2-2 in Fgure 1, and
Figure 3 is a cross sectona1 view, taken substantially in the plane of the line 3-3 in Figure 1.
Like characters of reference are employed to designate 1ik parts in the specification and throughout the several views.
Referring n0w to-the accompanying drawings in gietail, the invention cons sts of a gas-liquid admixng apparatus designateci generaily by the reference character 10, the same err1bodying in its construction an upright, substantially cylindrica1 tank I2 which is intended to receive in the 1ower portion thereof a quantity of 1iquidto be adrnixedthe normal level of which is indicated The upper end Wali 16 of the tank-l2 carriesan electricmotor [8, the armatur ofwhich is coupldfito 'a sutable liquici.ipump 20 and als'o 1 Claim. 01. 261-121) and useful imthrough the medium of a suitable gear box 2 2 to an air or gas compressor 24.
The intake duct 26 of ths compressor is equipped with a suitable filter 2 8 whereby the duet communicates with the atmosphere, whi1e the out1et of the compressor communicates with a further duet 30. This duet extends through the top wa1i |6 downwardly into the tank I2, and the lower end thereof carries and is in communication with a disk-like, substantially circular housing of an aerating unit 32.
It is to be noted that this aerating unit is submrged. with respect to the 1iquid 1eve1 I4 and. that the circumferential wall of the aerator housin is formed with a plurality of outlet openingg 34. Moreover, a setof mutualiy divergent baiiie strips 36 are provided within the aerator housing 32,
these strips definng therebetween a plurality of air passages 38, each of which extends from the 1ower end of the duet 30 to one of the outlet openings 34, as is best shown in Fgure 3. It is to be noted that in order to facilitat this structural arrangement, the duet 30 is eccentricaily disinosed with respect to the aerator housing 32, as 'wil1ba readily understood.
A spraying unit 40 floats upon the liquid in the housing 12, the unit 40 including in its cohstruction a buoyant, disk-like member 42 on whichis mounted a, circuiar chamber 44. This chamber,
in turn, is provided with a piurality of upwardly directed spraying nozzles 46, and it is tob noted that the chamber 44 is also equipped with an upright feed tube 48. The nozzles 46 are disposed above the level of the iiquid in the tank, and flotation of the unit 40 on the liquid safeguards against any possbility of the nozzies beingsubmerged. if the level of liquid sh0u1d rise.
A foraminous bafiie p1ate 50 is mounted in the tank I2 above the spraying unit 40, and the tube noted that suitable packing 56 is provided in the upper end portion of the tube 40, in order to as- 'sure that all liquid delivered through th conduit 52 is conveyed, without leakage, through the tube 48 to the chamber 44.
A filtering sereen 58 is provided in the tankl2 above the foraminous bafiie 50, the conduit 52" passing downwardly through the sereen 58, whi1e the aforementioned duet 30 passes downWardly bafiie 50, as wi11 be clearly apparent.
The intake 00 of the pump 20 is conneted to a .feed tube 62, the latter extending downwardly through the screen58 as well asthrough the through the sereen 58 and throughthe -baflie 50 and carrying at its lower end a filter element 64 which is submerged. in the liquid in the tank I 2,
substantialiy as shown.
It may be added at this point thatt1ielevel"e f
