June 2, 1964 F. c. MILLER 3,135,273
QUICK CARBURETOR CLEANER Filed May 2, 1962 27 {z I:- W
Mg a @Q 3p 40 INVENTOR. 40 FZOI fl C. HELLER United States Patent "ice 3,135,273 QUICK CARBURETOR CLEANER Floyd C. Miller, 516 S. 3rd, Goshen, Ind. Filed May 2, 1962, Ser. No. 191,958 1 Claim. (Cl. 134-94) This invention relates generally to cleaning apparatus for cleaning of carburetor parts.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a quick carburetor cleaner for the removal of varnish and dirt from carburetor parts which will reduce the soaking period of the process to approximately one-half of the conventional time currently used to accomplish the same.
it another object of the present invention to provide a quick carburetor cleaner which requires considerably less floor space for performance of this task than is allocated for present equipment for the same purpose.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide a quick carburetor cleaner which operates with a considerably smaller amount of solution, thereby requiring a lesser quantity of the solution to be discarded and replaced when it becomes dirty, and consequently resulting in a less expensive operation.
Other objects of the present invention are to provide a quick carburetor cleaner bearing the above objects in mind which is of simple construction, has a minimum number of parts, is inexpensive to manufacture and efficient in use.
For other objects and for a better understanding of the invention, reference may be had to the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which:
FIGURE 1 is an exploded view of carburetor parts shown dismantled and in relatively correct alignment for reassembly during the stage prior to cleaning.
FIG. 2 is a side elevational view of the parts illustrated in FIG. 1 and here shown assembled on a container ready for the cleaning process;
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a support for supporting a basket.
Referring now to the drawing in detail, the numeral represents a contained according to the present invention within which carburetor cleaning solution is generally purchased, the container generally holding five gallon quantities. This container 10 normally includes a basket for placing dismantled carburetor parts therein. An opening 13 is provided in the side of the container 10 to which the various parts in assembled position may be attached in order to soak and clean the same.
In the method of operation the solution is first removed from the five gallon container. The container is then placed on its side and the air metering valve is held at a point immediately below the top ring. The air metering valve is indicated at the drawing with numeral 25. Two openings are then marked and drilled in the container 10, the air metering valve being then fastened to the container with two bolts. Next a three-eighth inch opening is drilled, one inch from the bottom of the container, as indicated at 13, and the various carburetor parts 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 are assembled therewith. Then a piece of copper tubing is made to extend from the bottom of the air metering valve through the threaded part 23 into the elbow 14. The carburetor parts 25, 26, 27 28, 29 30, 3 1, 14, and 16 attached on the outer 3,135,273 Patented June 2, 1964 side of the container, while on the inner side of the container the parts 20, 21 and 22 are already in position to engage corresponding parts. By using a section of metal tubing and bending the same, as shown at 32 in FIG. 1 of the drawing to form a generally triangular configuration having sections 33, 34 and 35 and then punching a plurality of openings 36 along the length of said tubing a device is produced for permitting air to escape therethrough. The ends 37 and 38 of the tubing are then inserted into the parts 22 and tightened therein. Then a section of sheet metal of approximately twenty gauge and of relatively narrow height is bent, as shown in FIG. 3 of the drawing. The sheet metal forms a base 39 having bends 40 dividing the device into three sections of generally triangular configuration.
The underside of the device is provided with a cutaway section 41 in each of the sides. This support is then placed into the bottom of the container to support a basket placed thereupon. The tubing element is located horizontally within the central area formed by the support. The cutaway sections 41 serve to provide circulation. Thus, with the air boiling the solution will force the cleaning fluid through the various parts and do a thorough cleaning thereof.
It is important to note that without the introduction of air this would not be possible. The air is supplied from a female coupler 42 attached to the end of an air supply hose 43. The air travels through the various parts, starting at 27 and ending within the bent tube from where it escapes through the openings 36.
While various changes may be made in the detail construction, it shall be understood that such changes shall be within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claim.
What I claim as new and desire to protect by Letters Patent of the United States is:
Apparatus for cleaning carburetor parts comprising in combination a container for holding a quantity of carburetor cleaning fluid, said container having a side wall defining an opening, an air metering valve mounted upon said side wall in communication with a source of compressed air, and an opposite end in communication with the interior of said container through said opening, a tubular conduit mounted within said container connected to said opposite end of said valve and said conduit having a plurality of apertures for discharging compressed air into the fluid carried by said container to percolate the fluid for cleaning parts placed within said container, said conduit being of generally triangular configuration and a substantially triangular sheet metal frame overlying said conduit to space said parts being cleaned from said conduit to improve circulation of fluid within said container.
