FlRE-KINDLER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 301,809., dated July 8, 1884.
. Application filed November 20, 1883. (Specimens) To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, EUGENE J. DUNBAR, of Romulus, in the county of Wayne and State of Michigan, have invented a new and Improved Fire-Kindler, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to improvements in that class of fire-kindlers which are composed of pieces of coal coated witha solution of resin and turpentine and then rolled in coal-dust or' sawdust or powdered charcoal, and the invention consists in coating pieces of coal with resin or pitch to form aclean, non-sticking, and inflammable surface.
Reference is to behad to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, in which pieces of my improved fire-kindler are shown in section in Figure 1 andin face View in Fig. 2.
Pieces A of charcoal, hard or soft coal, or coke are dipped in molten resin, pitch, or a mixture of the same, or' in any other combustible material adapted to form a hard combustible coating, B, on the charcoal, coke, &c. The pieces of charcoal, coke, &c., are then removed and dried, and thus are provided with the hardened combustible coating. The pieces are then packed in suitable packages," and are then ready for themarket. If a fire is to be kindled, the fire-kindler is ignited by means of a match or otherwise, and is immediately enveloped in flames, as the coating burns rapidly and ignites the coal, &c. When the combustible coating is consumed, it leaves live coal, which immediately ignites the fuel, such as coal, coke, wood, &c. The kindler is clean and does not soil the hands, clothes, buckets, &c., and can be handled very easily. The pieces of coal, coke, 800., can have various sizes.
Heretofore pieces of coal have beencoated with a sticky composition composed of turpentine and rosin, after which a coating of coal-dust, powdered charcoal, or sawdust was applied to prevent the pieces from sticking 5 A coal or carbon fire-kindling made with an exterior film of hard, smooth, resinous. matter that incloses the coal or carbon and prevents soiling, but is readily inflammable.
