Application iiled January 3, 1899. Serial No. 700,920. (No model.)
To ctZZ whom it may concern.-
Beit known that 1, ODILON ARCH'AHBAULT, a subject of ller Majesty the Queen of Great Britain, residing at St. Hyacinthe, county of St. Hyacinthe, Province of Quebec, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in .acetylene-'Gas Generatorsg.
and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to improvements in acetylene-gas-generating apparatus.
The object of my invention is to provide a construction in which a series of carbid-receptaclcs are operatively connected to the generating-chamber, each of said receptacles being adapted to be brought into operative connectionV independently'to enable the refilling when necessary.
A further object is to provide a construction simple and efficientfwhich will automatioally deliver the carbid to the generatingchamber. Y
Afurther object is to provide a generatingchamber in which the residue can be readily removed.
A further object is to provide a construction compact in form, simple and efficient in operation, durable in construction, andwhich can'be made at a moderate cost.
4To these and other ends my invention consists in the improved construction and combination of parts hereinafter fully described,
and particularly pointed out in the appended claims. p
In the drawings, in which similar numerals of reference indicate similar parts'in all of the views, Figure 1 is a perspective view of an apparatus constructed in accordance with.I
my invention. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is an elevation, partly in section, of the generator. Fig. 4 is a central vertical longitudinal sectional view of my apparatus. Fig. 5 is a horizontal sectional view of the gasometer.
1 designates the generator, formed substan- 'tally as shown and having the generating- The generating-chamberj2 is provided with a supplemental bottom 3, corrugated, as at a, and arranged inclined, as
best shown in Fig. 3. The top 5 of the generating-chamber is provided with a series of openings 6, in which are secured verticallyextending pipes 7, each of said pipes being provided with two valves 8 9, preferably arranged as shown in the drawings, said valves serving to regulate the passage of the carbid from the carbid-receptacle 10, as hereinafter described. As shown, each receptacle 10 is provided with an 'g cning 11 at its top, to close which a removabie cap 12 is provided, the opening 11 being adapted to allow of the passage of the carbid into the receptacle 10 during refilling.- Each valve 8 is provided with an elongated stem 13, on which is mounted a tube 1l, forming a lever by means of which the v'alve may be tu rned, A `second lever 15, having a hook portion 16, is also mounted on the stern 13, said lever' being extended in a direction opposite that of the lever or tube 14, the hook portion 16 being adapted to receive a weight V17, byv means of which the valve w/ifll benormally held in its closed position. The tube or lever 14 is adapted to receive one end of a removable rod 18, the opposite end'of which is adapted to be removably con- `nected to a rod 19, connected to and extending upwardly from the telescoping section 20 of the gasometer 21, the connection between the rod 18 and rod 19 being arranged to allow of a ready insertionof the end of the rod 18 into-either one of the tubes or levers 14, the tube or lever 14 not operatively connected to the rod 18 resting in a suitable supportinghook 22, formed on the-receptacle 10. end of the red 18 is bifurcated, as shown in Fig. 1, said end being ladapted to embrace the rod 19, being held from vertical movement onsad rod by means of suitable pins located in the rod 19 above and below the bifurcated end.
The valves 9 are provided with upwardlyextending levers 23 24,- which are connected 4by meansrof a connecting-bar 25, the levers 23 and 24being provided with suitable' openings, by means of which the connecting-bar may be adjustably connected to the levers. The lever 24'is provided with an angular-.portion 26, having a handle 26, by meansof which the valves 9 can be readily turned, the

'connecting-bar 25 serving to cause the two valves to have asimultaneous movement, the
valves being arranged in such manner that one valve will be closed when the other is open.
v27 designates a p'ipe having connection with a source of`water-supply, such as ahylpreferably the sewer, said pipe/ being conerating-chamber practically on the same hori The opposite side oi'fthegener-v zontal plane. ator is provided with a pipe 29, h nection with -a point outside of the j a conbuilding,
neeted to the generating-chamber by means ot' short connections 30, one being provided for vzo `each corrugation, 4the connections 30 entering the chamber at the lowest pointpf the corruga- Ations. Suitable valves are placed in the pipes' 27 and 29, by means of which they may be mined.
brought into and out of operation, as may be desired. The generator is also provided with a tube 3l, by 'means of which the depth of water in the generator may be readily deter-` The gasometer 21 is lprovided with Va U- shaped frame 32, which serves as a guide for the telescoping section, the rollers 33, located on the section 20', operating against the frame 32, as shown in Fig. l, and also serving as a stop to limit the upward movement of saidsection. The rod'19-is adapted to pass through an opening formed in the..frame 32, thus insnring a true vertical movement of said rod.
The gen eratin g-chamber is connected to the gasometer by means of the pipe 34, the pipe passing intothe 4gasometer above the waterline inthe usual manner. vA pipe 35, entend f inginto the' gasometei", serves as acondnit for the gasv from. the gasometer to the servicepipes. `A pipe' 86, connected to the gasorneter and 'extending therein near its bottom.servcs as an outlet for `the water therein when it is .desired'to empty the gasometer, a suitable valve beinglprovided `to control said outlet.
Asafety device-consisting of the pipev37,
'connected to the stationary section 38 and leading to theouter atmosphere, as shown in y Fig. 5,0vger which the pipe 39, secnreduto the section 20, is adapted vto move, the arrange'- ment being such that should the section pass `to a height greatcrthan desired the seal between the pipes 37 and39 will be broken and the surplus gas'will pass ont through the pipe `37', vthus prevcntingany liability ot'a dangerous cxplosioinV v v To allow of an access to the interior o f the generating Chambon' I providev a suitable hand-boleto, having a capv 4l, while to `allow ol' the fescape of the air when the generator is first placed in operative position I provide a pipe 42, having valve 43. I
l t will be readily seen that as the section 2O of the ga'someter moves vertically the valveS, operatively connected therewithvili be given a movement to open and close the valved opening, allowing the carbid to pass downward through the pipe and valve 9 to the generating-chamber. As before explained, the valves 8 are arranged to be opened alternately, as desired. By this construction the carbid-re-V ceptacle not in use can be detached for filling, if desired, yet preventingthe outlet of gas when the receptacle is removed.
By reason' of the corrugated bottom channels will be formedwithin which the residue falls, from which it can be readily removed by opening`the pipes 27 and 29, the water passing through the channels andfercing the residue therefrom.
VA suitable trap may be provided. in the pipe 35, by Vmeans of which the water of conden sation .will be taken from the gas automatieally. ,y
. The advantages of this construction are ob viens and it is not thought necessary to point theml out in detail. i f
of carrying my invention into effect, yet I do not desire to limit myself to snchvpreierred details of construction, but claim the right will serve to carry into effect the objects to be attained by this invention in se far as such modifications and changesrna'y falliti/ith in the spirit and scope of my said invention. Having thus described myinv'ention, what IclaimasnewisY l. The'combination with an acetylene-gas generator; .et 'a plurality et' carbid-recepta cles operatively connected therewith, said receptacles being adapted to be operated alternately; and a series of valves located in the connectionslbetween the receptacle and the carbid-chamber, the lower valve in each connection being connected to a comm-on actu ating means, the remaining valveshaving in dependent movement, substantially as de scribed. l
