SPBCIEICAJION forming part of Letters Patent No. 359,288, dated March 15, 1837.

Application filed August 10, 1886. Serial No. 210.586. (No modcl.)

T0 aZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, MARY F. SALLADE, of the city, county, and State of Nev York, have invented a new andusful Improvement in At omizers for Distribnting Insect-Destroying Liquids; and I do hereby deolare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a vertical central section of my improved spraying device for destroying inseots by means of liquids; Fig. 2, a longitudinal section through the blowing-tube in line :000 of Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 au elevation of the supply-tube detached.

My invention relates to that class of atomizers in which the jet of liquid is produced by a pressure of air upon the contents of the reservoir or vessel containing the same, in connection with a blast of air flowing rapidlyin a concentric jet encircling the outer end of a tube communicating with the reservoir. The object thereof is to obtain a simple device, which may be readily taken apart and packed in a small compass, and which when in use shall deliver the liquid from the reservoir in a fine shower,rather than in an atomized spray, the device being specially designed and adapted for the distribution of an insect-destroying fluid, WhGh, if delivered in the form of a spray or mist by the use of the ordinary forms of atomizers, would not be eflicacious in accomplishing its desired eEfect.

It consists in a special construction and combination, as hereinafter described, of a separate detachable delivery-tube With a conical blowingpipe secured transversely to the nozzle of a eau or vessel to contain the fluid, the detachable delivery-tube hein g made fast wheu needed by inserting it through an opening in the nozzle into the blowing-pipe and wedging its outer flattened end into the smaller end of said pipe.

In the. accompanying drawings, A represents a closed vessel of any suitable size or form provided with an opening fitted With a threaded collar or nozzle, B. 0 is a cap screwing upon said nozzle, to form a tight joint therexyith, and upon whose upper end is fixed,

diametrically a transverse blow-pipe, D, of couical for'm, tapering from a large opening at one end, to which the lips of the operator are to be applied,to a small orifice at the opposite end, from which the fluid is to be foroibly ejected, in manner as hereinarter described. Communication is established between the interior of this blowing conical pipe D and the interior of the vessel by means of an extended slot, E, eut through the tube and the top of the cap.

F represents a detaohable delivery-tube, of an internal diameter corresponding to that of the smaller end of the blowing-tube. One end of this tube is bout et a right angle to its length, and the extremity of this bent end is flattened transversely to the plane in which it is bent, as shown at W in Fig. 2, so as to widen it, without, however, reducing the area of the opening through the same.

The width of the slot E is equal to that of the flattened extremity of the tube F, so as to permit thelatter to be inserted through it from the inside of the cap and pushed forward within the blow-pipe D, until it engages and becomes wedged within the latter at a short distance back from its contracted end, and the bend of the tube F is so proportioned as that when its flattened extremity becomes fast in the pipe D the upper side of the bent end of the tube will strike the top of the pipe D, and the inner side of the bend will engage the front end wall of the slot, so that the tube will become firmly fixed, while the main length of tube will extend at a right angle to the axis of the pipe D far enough to reach the bottom of the vessel A, when the cap 0, carrying said pipe, is screwed down upon the nozzle B of the vessel, as shown in Fig. 1.

The tube F may thus be readily fitted to or removed from the cap 0 and blow-pipe D, and when fitted in place au opening is still left from the pipe D into the vessel Athrough the slot E, and an air-passage is left in the pipe D over and under the flattened open end of th tube F.

The apparatus is p repared for use by inserting the bent end of the tube F through the slot E into the pipe D, and pushing it forward until the tube becomes fixed in proper position, as described. The vessel A is filled with a snitable insect-destroying flnid and closed by serewing the cap 0, carrying the pipe D and tube F,npon the nozzle B.

By blowing into the wide end of the eenical pipe D a pressure is created by the force et the air as it: enters throng}1 the S1013 E npon the surface of the liqnid in the vesse], and will operate t0 force it} np throngh the tube F, at the same time the blast of air carried over and under the flattened end of the tube will take np the liquid issning thereflom and carry it in fine drops out through the Contracted end 01' the pipe D, from which it will fall in a shower, which may be readily directed to any point 01 mm any opening 01 crevice where insects arelodged,and the flnid be thereby delivered in suflicient qnantity and under the mosb favorabie condition for eificient action in destroying them.

In paeking away the instrument the pipeD is unserewed from the vessel A, and the tube F withdrawn from the pipe D, so that the whole 1nay be stowed in a very small compass.

I daim as my invention The coxnbinabion, with the vessel A, provided with a threaded nozzle, B, and wibh a cap, 0, serewing ont0 said nozzle and having an extended slob, E, theren, of a conical b1OW- ing-pipe, D, secured transverseiy upon the cap and connnnnicnting through the S101) E Wibh the interior of the vesse], and a separate detachable Dent deliverytube, F, adapted t0 enter the blowing-pipe D throngh said 5101;, and which is flattened at; its extremiby t0 engage and wedge into the contracted end of the pipe and be thereby seenred in position 130 project therefrom into the vesse1 A, substantially in the mamier and for 1-he pnrpose herein set fortin.

In testimony whereof Ihavesignedmynan1e to this speeifieation in the pmsenee of two Subscribing nituesses.
