UNITED STATES PATENT OFF CE;
ELARD LUDDE, OF MASPETH, NEW YORK.
FlRE-KINDLER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 525,912, dated September 11, 1894. Application filed January 8, 1894. Serial No. 496,098- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ELARD LUDDE, a, citizen of the United States, residing at Maspeth, in the county of Queens and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Fire-Kindlers, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improved firekindler, and its object is to provide a firekindler, which is cheap and effective for starting either a wood or coal fire.
The invention consists of a fire-kiudler, composed of a closely-wound spiral foundation-strip of combustible material, which is coated with a suitable mixture of hydrocarbons and covered with a layer of sawdust, such kindler having an ignition-strip attached to the inner convolution, which latter is filled in with saw-dust, so that a quickly-ignitible kindler is produced.
In the accompanying drawings: Figure l is a perspective view of the improved kindler. Fig. 2 is a horizontal section through the same. Fig. 3 is a view, showing a portion of a coated foundation-strip and an ignition-strip about to be rolled into the foundation-strip. Fig. 4 is a transverse section, on line 44:, Fig. 3.
Abrief description of the preferred process of making the fire-kiudler, in connection with the description and illustration of the article itself will be understood Without special illustration.
A long web or strip of rolled paper is unwound and conducted into a vessel containing a liquefied mixture of heavy hydro-carbons, such as varnish-drips, resin, coal-tar or the like, such mixture being kept sufficiently thin by adding from time to time, as occasion demands, a supply of crude petroleum. As the coated web is drawn out of the vessel, one
side is scraped as clean as can be, and the same passed through a receptacle containing saw-dust, which adheres to the coated side of the same. The web is now drawn out of the saw-dust by the attendant, and cut into strips such as a, snfficient in size to produce a convolute kindler b. Each strip a, when out off, has applied to one end of its coated side a, a thin projecting sulphur-coated ignitionstrip 0 of highly combustible material, the extremity d of said strip a being lapped or bent over upon the ignition-strip, so that when the strip a is rolled into compact form around the latter with the uncoated side an outward, the whole will assume the form shown in Figs. 1 and 2, whereby a substantially solid fire-kindler provided with a central ignition-strip is produced. In order to more firmly hold the ignition-strip in position, the center convolution of the kindler is packed with a saw-dust filling, as shown.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A fire-kindler, composed of a foundatiom strip of combustible material, having a convolute or spiral form, a coating of hydro-carbon, a layer of saw-dust applied to the coating, and a centrally projecting ignition-strip of thin material, the same being firmly retained within the central convolution of the kiudler, substantially as shown and described.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
ELARD LUDDE.
