SPECIFICATION forming part of -Lette rs l?atent No. 545,744, dated September 3, 1895.

Application filed April 2, 1395.

To all whom it may concern;- p

Be it known that we, SIMEON STEWART and HOMER S. CARNES, citizens of the United States, residing at Lima, in the county of Allen and State of Ohio, have invented new and use f ul 1 mprovements in Hydrocarbon-Burn c rs, of

' which vthe following is a specification.

had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specificatiomwherein- Figure '1 is a side elevation of our improved burner. Fig. 2 is, a top plan view thereof. Fig. 3 is a vertical cross-sectiontaken on the line 3 3 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a top plan view of the base or deflector plate. Fig. 5 is a longitudinal section taken on the line 5 5 of Fig. 4.

Fig. 6 is a transverse central section of the'deflector-plate, and Fig. 7 is a top plan view of a modified form of mixer. In the drawin gs wehave illustrated adouble burner especially designed for use in a stove;

I but it will be'evident that'one orany number of burners may be employed,and that the same may be employed for any of the purposesto.

which hydrocarbon-burners are applicable.

- -Referring to the drawings, the numeral 1 indicates the base of the burner consisting of a rectangular plate having parallel. sides and segment-shaped ends and'having a'downwardly-proj ectin g flange 2 about its sides and ends.

- Said plate is highest atits centef and gradually inclines downwardly towardthe opposite ends, as at 3, and near the ends'is curved in cross-section, as shown in Fig. 3, and thence inclines upwardly to the ends, forming two concaved or cup-shaped oil-receptacles 4. Channels 5 are arranged upon the opposite sides of the deflector-plate 1 and afford com-' munication between the twooil-receptacles 4, for the purpose hereinafter described.

" ing-pipeand Serial No. 544,204. (No model) a frame or shelf 7, that is of the same size and general shape as the deflector-plate .1, and said shelf uponits upperand'oppos'ite sides is-pro- 'vided with lugs 8 that project above the plane of the shelf to form supports for vthe vaporfully hereinafter appear.

The numeral 9 'ndicates theoil supply pipe one end of a-coiled vaporizing-pipe 11' that rests upon the lugs 8 g and at its other end is provided with a T-coupling 1 latter project in opposite-directi 'two'supen' heating pipes 13 that are closeda't their'oiiter ends, and'nearleach' end upon the underside are provided with jet-apertures 14'. Said superh'eati'ng-pipes are supported at their outer ends by uprights 15 or cast with the shelf-7. a Suspended from the superb ating-pipes 13 are mixers 16, each consisting of a hollow shell 17 of the shape of aninverted truncated cone, and having centrally arranged therein a tube 18 that is; supported inplace by webs 19 cast integral with said shell and; tube. The shell 17, is provided with two perforated cars 20, which'are slipped over the superheat bymeans of which the n ixers are suspended from said pipes over the,.'oil-' receptacles 4 and in such manner that the apertures 14. The lugs 8' that project -.diagmixers 16 into place and insure th tube 18 being arranged in proper rel'atio othejetaperture. 1 1 Instead of making the mixer. circular in superheating-pipes 13a-nd escapes by the jetapertures 14 and drips into the oil receptacles 4. The channels dinsnre an equal supply of izing-pipe and also-project laterally inward to form guides for the mixers, as will more that are secured to tube 18 shall accurately align"with the jet-.

onally inward, as before described, guide the- Bolted to the opposite sidesand ends of the deflector-plated are uprights 6,.which support .S5

provided with a valve 10, and connected with v from which a l i IO' flows through the vaporizing-pipe 11 into'the conditionagainst the deflector-plate 1, the inclined faces of which diffuse the heat throughout the combustion-chamber,'the'raised and inclined-central portion of said iplate throw- .ing the heat outward from the center of the A burner, where it would 'otherwise be concentrated. By supporting the. vaporizing coil upon lugs, as shown, the pipe is held outof contact with the metallic surface of the shelf,

whereby the oil therein is very quickly vapor-.

ized in the, initial burning; Moreover, such arrangemei'atv permits the passage of the-air between the 'shelf and the vaporizing-pipe, thus protecting the pipe from direct contact with the flame.

' Having described our invention, whatwe claim is" V v I 1; A'hydrocarbon burner, consistingof a defieetor' plate having an oil receptacle,- a vaporizing coil s'upportedabove said plate, a super heating pipe. connected therew'ithand provided upon its under side with a jet aperture and a'mixer suspended from said superheatin g pipe over the oil receptacleand consisting of an inverted truncated-cone-shapcd shell having centrally supported therein a tube-a1?! ranged directly beneath the jet aperture, an

air passage gradually diminishing in area d er side with jet apertures,*m ixers, one'for alignment with the jet orifices by the said 5 from top to bottom being formed between the shell and tube, substantially as described.

2. A hydrocarbon burner, consisting of a deflector plate having oil receptacles, of a shelf supported above the same and provided upon its upper side with inwardly projecting raised lugs, a vaporizing coil supported upon said lugs, .superh'eatingpipes connected with said coil and'su'pported by uprights carried by said shelf, said pipes being provided upon the uneach' jet aperture, provided with perforated" ears, said mixers being suspended from the superhcating pipes by said ears and held in lugs, substantially as described.

3. A hydrocarbon burn er, consisting of a deflectorplate raised atits center and inclined downwardly in. opposite directions 'therefrom toward its ends, concaved oil receptacles 61 formed'in the ends of said'deflector plate, channels connectingsaid'oil receptacles, a vaporizing coilsupported above said plate,- superheating pipes connected with said coil and provided upon the under side with jet aper- 6 tnres arranged above said oil receptacles, and mixers arranged above said deflector. plate and immediately beneath said jet apertures, substantially as described;

v In testimony whereof we" llave hereunto set 7c our h'andsin presence of two subscribing witnesses.
