Description

UNITED STATES JULES GROS, OF PARIS, FRANCE.
IMPROVEMENT IN CQNIPRESSED-GAS GENERATORS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 53,75, dated April 3, 1866.
Ii fdl ttf/'tom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JULES GROS, of Paris, in the Empire of France, have invented anew and Improved Generator for Compressed Gas; and I do hereby declare that the followin g is a tull, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l represents a longitudinal vertical central section ot' this invention. Fig. 2 is an end view of the same.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts.
This invention refers to an apparatus which is intended to produce, by the explosion ot' fulminating materials-such as fulminate of mercury-compressed gas, which can be used with safety-valves, c, ot' any suitable construction.
The generator d isfurnished with a revolving cylinder, e, which is mounted on a shaft, having its bearings in suitable standards attached to one of the heads of said generator, and this cylinder is provided with a series ot' chambers to receive the t'ulminating material 5 or, instead of chambers it may be provided with nipples to receive percussion-caps or any suitable eXplosive material. Said revolving cylinder is placed over a curved seat, h, which is perforated with a hole, t, extending to the interior of the generator, and the explosive material contained in the chambers ot' the revolving cylinder is so arranged that it can be exploded whenever one ot' said chambers comes opposite the hole in the curved seat. The mechanism for exploding said material is not shown in the drawings, and Ido not wish to conine myself to any particular device for this purpose, but reserve the right to change the same asJnay be desirable. 'Ihe gases produced by the successive explosions pass by their ovvu action through the hole t into the generator d, and
thence through the pipe j into the reservoir, a suitable check-valve being provided to prevent them from returning into the generator at'ter the saine have once passed into the receiver.
By this apparatus gases of a pretty high pressure can be collected in the receiver, and by conducting these gases through a suitable pipe, t', to an engine or other motor, a cheap motive power is obtained.
What Iclaim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The generator d, provided with a revolving chambered cylinder or any equivalent device, in combination with the receiver a, constructed and operating substantially as and for the purpose described.
' JULES GROS.
