a vertical section of my improved regulator K represents an expansible actuating-rody applied to a stove-pipe. Fig. 2. is a horizonpassing transversely through the interior of tal section thereof, partly in elevation. Fig. the stove-pipe F, so as to be exposed to the 3 is a vlongitudinal section of the discharge heat therein. The inner end of this rod en- 75 z 5 end of the regulator in line 0c 0c, Fig. 2.

The outer portion of the rod 1s in the several -Iigures. screw-threaded and secured in a threaded 8o 3o A represents the casing of the regulator opening formed in a boss l, arranged in the proper, which is divided into an inletchamend portion of the discharge-pipe E of the loer B and an outlet-chamber B by a partiregulator. The expansible rod is held against tion b, having an opening or passage c, lengthwise movement in the boss l, and is whereby the two chambers are placed inclamped therein by a jam-nut Z', applied to 85 35 communication with each other, as reprethe projecting outer portion of the rod and sented in Fig. 2. bearing against the adjacent portion of the d represents the inlet-pipe of the regulapipe E. tor, connected with the source of supply and The 'expansible rod K is constructed of cophaving the usual shut-oft cock, (which is not per or other metal possessing the expansible 4o shown in the drawings,) and E is the disproperty in a high degree, so that it will charge-pipe connecting the regulator with readilyexpandorcontract asthe temperature the burner in the stove, and extending prefin the stove-pipe rises or falls.

When a normal amount of gas is consumed, the heat in the stove-pipe F is normal, and the expansion of the rod K is just sufficient to leave the valve open to the required extent to allow of a normal supply of gas to the burner. When the supply is excessive, the temperature rises above the normal point and the actuating-rod expands, thereby causing the regulating-valve g to move toward its seat and diminishing the supply of gas to the burner. As the temperature again falls the rod contracts and allows the spring i to open the valve to a greater extent, thereby again increasing the supply. The gas-supply is thus regulated and kept uniform by the expansion and contraction of the rod K, the supply being reduced when the temperature rises above the normal and increased when it falls below the normal.
The device is regulated to the approximate normal supply desired by adjusting' the inner end of the expansible rod K with reference to the inner end of the shifting-lever j, so as to properly limit the range of movement of the valve to open the valve to the required extent. This adjustment is accomplished by loosening the jam-nut Z and turning the rod and then again tightening the jam-nut. The expansible rod is provided with a hand-wheel or other means for turning it.
My improved regulator is readily applied to a stove-pipe at comparatively small expense, and requires no separate supportingframe, it being only necessary to form openings in opposite sides of the stove-pipe for the passage of the expansible rod.
I am aware that the dampers of stoves and the Ventilating-valves of incubators have been automatically regulated by means of thermostatic rods. I am also aware that the valves or cocks of water-pipes have been automatically operated by means of a thermostatic rod, so as to prevent freezing of the water in the pipes when the temperature falls to a point at which the water is liable to freeze. I do not therefore desire to claim suoli devices.
I claim as my inventionl. The combination, with a stove pipe or fine, of a gas-supply pipe, a regulator-casing arranged in said supply-pipe and provided with a gas-passage, a regulating-valve arranged in the easing and controlling its gas,- passage, and an expansible rod arranged in the stove-pipe projecting into said regulatorcasing and operating said regulating-valve, substantially as set forth.
2. The combination, with a stove pipe or fine, of a gas-supply pipe, a regulator-Casin g arranged in said supply-pipe and provided with a gas-passage, a regulating-valve arranged in the casing and controlling the gaspassage thereof, a shifting-lever pivoted in the casing and operating said valve, and an expansible rod arranged in the stove-pipe projecting' into the regulator-casing and operating upon said shifting-lever, substantially as set forth.
3. The combination, with a stove pipe or flue and a gas-supply pipe extending around the stove-pipe, of a regulator-casing arranged in the supply-pipe and having a gas-passage, a regulating-valve controlling said passage, and an expansible rod passing through the stove-pipe and adj ustably secured at its outer end to the gas-supply pipe and projecting with its inner end into the regulator-casin g and operating the regulating-valve, substantially as set forth.
fitness my hand this 13th day' of May, 1889.
