Description

UNITED STATES PATENT OEEIoE.
L. E. HOLDEN, OF CLEVELAND, OHIO.
IMPROVEMENT IN LIQUIDS FOR CARBURETING GAS AND AIR.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 61,662, dated January 29, 1867.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, L. E. HOLDEN, of the city of Cleveland, county of Ouyahoga, and State of Ohio, have made certain new and useful improvements in liquids for adding car: bon to air and gases used for illuminating and heating purposes, and in the application of such liquids in carbureting air and gases; and I hereby declare that the following is a clear and exact description of said improvements.
The object of my invention is to furnish a cheap and safe fluid, and one that can be easily made, for enriching ordinary coal or illuminating gas with. carbon. My desire was to furnish a liquid the ingredients of which could be readily procured in market, and, if need be, compounded by the consumer.
After repeated tests and experiments I have discovered that benzine, gasoline, naphthaline, and all of the light hydrocarbons will combine, in certain definite proportions with some of the common vegetable oils of commerce-as, for instance, olive-oil, rape-seed oil, colza-oil, Ste. I have also discovered that the same hydrocarbons will readilycombine with lard-oil and other animal oils. In making these compounds it seems that the heavy oils are dissolved and taken up bythe light hydrocarbons, and thus the compound becomes less volatile and less explosive. Thus I am able to produce a compound which may be more or less volatile, according to the season of the year in which it is to be used.
I do not limit myself to any definite proportions in combining the ingredients described above, for they must vary according to the gravity of the benzine or other light hydrocarbon, and also to some degree according to the season. But I will describe two of the compounds which I use for winter use.
Take one gallon of colza-oil, well treated say by Thernards processand mix with this four gallons of benzine produced from petroleum, of about the gravity of 65. It a lighter gravity of benzine is used, a little larger quan tity of the oil may be used. Take, instead of the colza-oil, one gallon of cold-drawn .lardoil, and the liquid will be nearlythe same. This liquid is to be vaporized and mixed-with the gas on its way to the burner, and may be used in any of the ordinary gas-multipliers.
I do not claim the combination of benzine from the petroleum with any of the light hydrocarbo ns from the coal-tar series, as this combination has been used before for the same purpose.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. The combination of benzine or any of the light hydrocarbons with colza, rape-seed, ol-
ive, or other equivalent vegetable oils, for the 4. The application of the fluid made by com:
biniug one of the hydrocarbons of light gravity with one or more animal or Vegetable oils to carbureting air or gas, when used for heating and illuminatin g purposes.
