LAMP-BURNER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 31%,1'78,
dated March 1'7, 1885.
Application filed March 17, 1884. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern: 7
Be it known that I, THoMAs HIPwELL, of Astoria, in the county of Queens and State of New York, have invented an Improvement in Lamp-Burners, of which the following is a specification.
Lamps and lanterns have been made with a movable section in the air-distributor, or in the metal plate below the burner, to be moved aside to admit a match or lighter. These, however, require to be closed by hand after the lamp islighted.
My invention relates to the combination, with asection in the air-distributer, of ahinge and a spring, which ,spring becomes a lever for moving the section in opening and closing the space through which the lighter is inserted.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is aplan with the air-distributer section depressed. Fig. 2- is a vertical section. Fig. 3 is the movable section and spring separately. Fig. 4 is a detached view of the hinge-plate, and Fig. 5 is a plan view of the movable section alone. The parts in Figs. 3 and 4 are shown in enlarged size.
The wick-tube a, base I), ratchet-cap c, arms d, air-distributer e, deflector or cone f, and chimney-springs g are of ordinary character, shape, and arrangement, except that the airdistributer, instead of being in one piece, is cut out so as to have an opening at one side of the wick-tube. The piece that is separated forms a movable section, e. In this section e, I cuta slot or mortise at 'i, and around the wick-tube I place a hinge-plate, Z, that is by preference soldered to the under side of the upon the ratchet-cap tributer; but when the airdistrib uter; andI provide atongue, a, that is passed through the mortise in the section 0 and turned over, so as to form a hinge upon which the section can be swung up or down.
The spring 0 is riveted to the under side of the section 6, and forms alever-handle for the same. by which to move said section. The spring is bent double, so that its free end rests at the junction thereof with the wick-tube. This holds the section a up level with the other portion of the air-disspring is moved so as to open the burner for free end of the spring slides up upon the side of the wick-tube. \Vhen the lever-spring is liberated, it resumes its normal position and raises theair-distribnter section.
I claim as my invention 1. The air-distributer section having a slot near its edge, in combination with the hingepiece surrounding the wick-tube, and having a tongue to pass through the slot and form a hinge, and a lever or handle to open or close:
the section, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination, in alamp-burner, of an air-distributer with an opening in it, asection to fit such opening, a hinge upon which the section can be swung, and a lever-spring fastened at one end to the section, and the other end resting upon the ratchet-cap or wick-tube,
' substantially as set forth.
Signed by me this 7th day of March, A. D.
THOMAS HIPWELL.
