On said rodR isrigidly to apply the heat to said motor or device by secured a hollow transfer-piston T, above the means of a burner located above the power power-piston E, said transfer-piston T being 8o and cooling cylinder and having a fansomewhat smaller and extending partially 3o blower journaled below said power and coolinto power and cooling cylinder A and paring cylinder, and to provide means to rotate tially into heating-chamber D, secured to the said fan-blower from the motor. Our printop of powerv or cooling cylinder A. cipal object in locating the burner above the The heating-chamber D is provided on its 85 cylinder'and of journaling the fan-blower inner surface with spiral grooves CZ and on 3 5 below is to keep the burner or source of heat its outer surface with longitudinal and transi\ as far away from fan-blower as possible, and verse grooves d. The heating-chamber D is most important of all to permit theproducts surrounded with a casing K. A ring-formed of combustion and what heat there may be burner M is interposed between the heating- 9o to ascend upward and to not intermingle chamber D and casing K. Said burner M is 4o with the air-current produced by the rotating held in place by means of extensions M, proof the fan-blower; furthermore, to cause the jecting from burner M and secured on the flow of air to partially pass over the power walls of casing K. Burner M is provided and cooling cylinder, thus aiding to mainwith a gas-inlet N, an air-inlet n, and a tube 95 tain it at a comparatively-low temperature. n' to convey the gas and air to the circular 45 We attain these results by the mechanism cavity m in burner M. From cavity fm is and the arrangements shown in accompanypassage M2 to convey gas and air to top of ing drawings, in whichburner M. The casing K is provided in its Figure l is a vertical section of the entire lower end with openings 7a and in its upper loo machine. Fig. 2 is -a section on line 2 2 end with a non-conductive lining U. 5o looking in the direction of the arrow. Fig. u is a passage or space between lining U 3 is a'section on line 3 3 looking in direction and heating-chamber D.
The burner M is of a somewhat-larger inside diameter than the outside of heatingchamber D and of smaller outside diameter than the inside of casing K, thus leaving passages for air, 7o' 7c", on the sides of burner M.
On drive-shaft O is secured a driving-wheel H, engaging the friction-pulley h, secured to oue end of shaft S. A dish-fan or fan-blower Z is secured to the other end of shaft S. Shaft S is journaled in a bracket s, secured to frame B by means of adjusting-screw s. Cylinder A and frame B are provided with dish-shaped extensions w tu', resting on and held in place against similar-shaped extensions on bracket lV by means of thumb-screws c o.
The operation of the machine is as follows: By admitting gas under ordinary pressure through gas-inlet N it will draw a suitable amount of air with it through air-inlet n and through the tube n into the cavity m" of burner M, from whence it proceeds through passages m to top of burner M, where it is ignited, the fiarne burning in space u and the products of combustion passing oii into the atmosphere through vent X. The flame by heating the passage a and heating-chamber D will cause a current of ascending air, creating a draft through openings 7c, 7a', and 7a, thus aiding to supply suiiicient air for the complete combustion of the gas. Upon the heating-chamber D being suliiciently heated it will be seen that by having turned the drive-Wheel in the direction indicated by the arrow the link L will have caused the transfer-piston to assume position shown in Fig. l, thus having transferred the air between the power-piston and the lower end of transfer-piston to the upper part of heating-chamber D, the air in ils upward course passing through the spiral grooves d', thereby acquiring a rotary motion, and consequently by reason of the centrifugal force brought in close contact with the inner surface of heatingchainber D the air by reason of said contact becomes highly heated and increases in volumc and pressure, which acts on piston E and through the medium of fork F, hollow guide G, bifurcated extension I, pitinan P to crank C on drive-shaft .O, thereby imparting motion and momentum to drive-Wheel H, friction-pulley h, shaft S, and fan -blower Z. lVhen power-piston E has nearly completed its outstroke, the link L will cause transfer-piston T to begin its instroke in advance of power-piston E, thereby transferring the air from the hot portion of heater D to the cold space formed between the power-piston E and transfer-piston T. The air being cooled in its passage by coming in contact with the cold innersurface of cylinderA will decrease in volum e and form a partial vacuum in the cylinder A, thus causing the atmospheric pressure to drive the power-piston E to its inner or upper center. The power thus developed is acting on power-piston E and through the mechanism described above on the fan-blower Z, secured on shaft S. It will also be seen and understood that the whole machine can be made to swing on the extensions w 'tu' and secured by the lock or thumb screws o fu', thus causing the fan to blow the air-current in the direction that may be desired.
Having fully described our invention, what We claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. In a hot-air fan-motor the combination of a power-cylinder, a heating-chamber, a power-piston in said power-cylinder, a transfer-piston extending partiallyinto said powercylinder and partiallyinto said heating-chamber, of spiral grooves on the inside of said heating-chamber substantially as described.
