SPECIJEICATION forming part o f Letters Patent No. 470,53@ dated March -8, 1892.

` Application nea october 3, 1891.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, WILHELM WIEZ, of Frankfort-on-the-Main, in the Kingdom of Prussia, German Empire, have invented new and useful Improvements in Tobacco-Pipe Cleaners, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.

This` invention relates to improvements in tobacco-pipe cleaners.

The accompanying drawing showsa vertiside elevation.

In the receptacle a is suspended the boiler o, which isheated by the spirit-lamp c. By means of the tapped 4neck d of the boilercover, which serves, also, for filling purposes, the bent or curved pipe e can be fixed in the and is furnished close to the bottom of the boiler with perforations f and close below the boiler-lid with perforations g. Between these perforations g and f the pipe e is surrounded by the sheath h, which is connected by means of the slot t' with the pin 7a so that the sheath can be moved by meansof this piny k in such a manner that the holes g can` beclosed and and the holes g opened, or both the holes f and g can be opened. Over the pointed end of the pipe e is placed the. pipe-stenito be cleaned, and if after the water boils the perforations g are opened the steam will escape; but if the perforations f are opened the water will runout, and when the two sets of perfo- Serial No.407l654. (No model.)

rations f and g are opened water mixcdwith steam will be allowed to run out.

What I claim, and desire to secure by ALetters Patent of the United States, is-

l. In combination, the boiler b, the conduit pipe leading therefrom and extending into said boiler to a point near the bottom and having the upper and lower openings leading from the boiler tothe interior of the conduit, the means within the boiler for controlling said openings, and the operating connection extending to the outside, substantially as de- 2. In combination, the boiler Z7, the conduitpipe extending from a point near its bottom outside the same and having the upper and lower openings, the sheath h, adapted to slide on the pipe Abetween and over the openings, and lthe operating-pin k, extending to the outside, subst-antially as described.

3. In combination, the receptacle a, the boiler suspended in the upper part thereof, the lamp within the receptacle and below the boiler, the conduit-pipe leading from the boilerand having the upper and lower openings therein, and the means for controlling the out- ,let of the steam and hot water through the upper and lower openings of the conduit-pipe, substantially as described.

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two witnesses.
