IVILLIAM l-I. WILDER, OF GARDNER, MASSACHUSETTS.

OIL-STOVE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 645,154, dated March 13, 1900.

Application filed March 14, 1899.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it kn own that I, WILLIAM H. WILDER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Gardner, State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Oil- Stoves, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to oil-stoves of the class heretofore invented by me, in which a reservoir is used having a maintained oillevel, and there is a relative movement either of the burner or reservoir, so as to raise or lower the level of the oil in the burner. In Patent No. 595,231, dated December 7, 1897, I have shown a stationary burner and a movablereservoir. InLettersPatentNo.618,020, dated January 17, 1899, I have shown a form of stove having the reservoir stationary and the burner movable. In the present invention the same object is sought-namely, to raise or lower the oil in the burner; but instead of having one part movable and the other part stationary I may make both parts movable, and thus secure the same action as in the patents referred to, but the vertical movement of the parts is reduced one-half for the reason that the arrangement is such that as the burner lowers the oil-chamber rises, and vice versa, and consequently much less movement is required than where one of the said parts alone moves. The present invention also-includes parallel bars for connecting and giving the necessary movement to the parts, whether both are movable or only one, and a duct connecting the burner and oil chamber having a swiveled connection, so as to allow of the movement of one or both parts.

In the accompanying drawings I have shown a conventional form of the invention in side elevation in Figure 1, while Fig. 2 is a plan View of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 shows the oilchamber stationary and the burner movable. Fig. 4 is a plan view of Fig. 3.

In the figures, A may represent any suitable standard, and swinging thereon are parallel bars e e, pivoted at one end to the burner B and at the opposite end to the oil-chamber C. A handle D is secured to the upper bar e, projecting outwardly therefrom, having an angular extension, so as to give a proper leverage to work the bar 6 to move the oilholder and oil-chamberconnected therewith.

Serial No. 709,052. (No model.)

The oil-holder of the burner B is preferably of the construction shown in my prior patents, but may be of any form suitable for the purpose. The oil-chamber O is adapted to contain a reservoir similar to that shown in my former patents and furnishes a maintained oil-level, as has been fully described heretofore in the patents referred to. The oil is fed from the chamber 0 to the burner through a duct or passage E, offset, as shown, and having a swivel connection at each end to allow of the movement of the parts. The bar 6 supports the pipe I), extending from the oil-chamber C and the pipe a of the burner, and with these pipes the swivel connection. is made with the offset E. In order that the burners may be well drained, I arrange the pipe F, connecting the sides of the burner, on a slight incline from' the point a.

A modification of the parallel bars may be utilized as a convenient means of raising and lowering one of the parts in relation to the other, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4. In these figures the oil-chamber is stationary and the burner is movable, being connected to the oil-chamber 0 directly by the bar (2 without the interposition of a central post or standard, as in Figs. 1 and 2, and the duct itself serves as the second bar, as shown at E. This connection gives a positive movement and always maintains the movable part, whether it be the burner or oil-chamber, in a level or horizontal position. In Figs. 3 and 4. the handle is shown at D.

Having thus described my invention, What I claim is-- 1. In an oil-stove, an oil-chamber having a maintained oil-level, a burner and means'for moving both of said parts in unison but in reverse direction, substantially as described.

2. In an oil-stove, an oil-chamber having a maintained oil-level, a burner, means for moving said'parts in unison but in opposite directions and a swiveled pipe connection between the parts, substantially as described.

3. In an oil-stove, an oil-chamber having a maintained oil-level and a burner, one of said parts being vertically movable, an oil-supply pipe connected with said burner at two points, said pipe being inclined from one side to the other so as to perfectly drain the burner and a suitable pipe connection between the end of the pipe and the oil-chamber, substantially as described.

4:. In an oil-stove, an oil-chamber, a burner, said parts being movable and parallel bars pivotally connected to said parts, the oilchamber being in communication with the burner, substantially as described.

5. In an oil-stove, an oil-chamber, a burner, said parts being movable, parallel bars pivotally connected to said parts and an offset oil-duct having swiveling connections with the oil-chamber and bnrner,'substantially as described.

6. In an oil-stove, an oil-chamber, a burner, said parts being movable and in communication with each other, parallel bars connecting the parts and a supporting-standard for the parallel bars, substantially as described.
