Laan-LAMP WITH ARGAND BURNER.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 3,028, dated April 6, 1843; Antedated April 1, 1843.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ROBERT CORNELIUS, of the city of Philadelphia, in the State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful manner of constructing lamps having Argand burners, by which they are adapted to the burn'ing of lard and other concrete fatty matters and which may also be advantageously used for the burning of the different kinds of oil used for theV procuring of artilicial light; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof.
In the lamps hitherto constructed for the burning of lard and other fatty substances, the general aim has been to conduct a large portion of the heat, produced by the flame, immediately into the body of the lamp so as to produce a complete fusion of the lard &c.; and when this has been effected, there has necessarily resulted such a diminution of heat at the point of ignition as has interfered materially with the intensity of combustion upon which the brilliancy of the light is dependent. In my lamp, under its various forms, a principal aim has been to conduct no more heat down from the flame than is necessary to fuse the lard in the vicinity of the wick; and this I have effected to such extent as to obtain a light from lard equally intense with that usually obtained from the best sperm oil.
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1, is a section through the body of a lamp having an Argand burner, and so constructed as that the principle of carrying OE no more heat from the points of ignition than is necessary for fusing the lard in the neighborhood of the wick, is fully carried out.
A, A, is the center tube, having the usual spiral thread cut on its exterior, for the raising or lowering of the wick by the revolving of the runner.
Fig. 2, is a section of a tube B, B, which is attached to the runner, and is made tosurround the wick, in the usual manner, and by the turning of this, the wick may be raised or lowered. This tube is suspended within the body of the lamp by means of four wires, C, C, that descend from the runner, or swivel plate, D, D, which drops into the Fig. l.
Fig. 3*is a top view of this runner or C, are the upper ends of the wires by which Y the said tube is suspended from the runner. The tube, B, B, is perforated with holes, F, F, to admit the lard freely to the wick.
Fig. 4 is a top View, and Fig. 5, is a section of the glass holder, and of the deflector, G, and its appendage; said deflector being formed as in the well known solar lamp; in the passing of the flame through the opening K, in the deflector, it will become heated, and the heat thus communicated to it I convey down into the lard by means of a tube, I, which is in one piece with the deflector, and, when in place, surrounds the tube, C, C, for half its length, more or less; by the aid of the tube, I, the lard will be fused in the vicinity of the wick tube, the heat being conveyed thereto from the deflector, while the body of the lamp, and the great bulk of the lard will, in the first instance, be but little affected, although the whole will be eventually fused. Instead of the tube, I, metallic rods may extend down fromV the deflector plate, and will answer the same purpose. The air may be admitted into the deliector through openings formed in the usual way, or through holes J, J, formed around the upper end of the tube, I, in which case the connection of the tube with the deflect-or will be rendered the more continuous. There may be other variations made in matters of detail in the construe` tion of this lamp, but in all of them the main principle to be kept in view is the having no more metal in contact with the point of combustion than is absolutely required for the melting of the lard in the immediate neighborhood of the wick, the reason ofV which is above fully set forth.
Having thus fully described the nature of my invention, and shown the manner in which my lamp is made to operate, what I claim therein as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
'Ihe manner herein described and represented, or any other manner which is substantiallyV the same in principle andvoperation, by which the burner tube B, B, is suspended within the body of the lamp; and
the tube, I, or any equivalent device, is made to melt the lard by means of the heat comconvenently be effected, and the proposed muncztted to it from a deector, or other apend attained. Y f
pendage, o eratin in a like manner; by
which arrngemet and combination of ROBERT CORNELIUS' E parts, the portion of the Wick that is under- Witnesses:
going combustion is isolated as completely THos. P. JONES,
from the metallic body of the amp as can JOHN HITE.
