- the cone-pulley r3 is provided with a pawl r4, pivoted thereto and held by a spring in yieldingengagement with the ratchet-wheel r2, as shown in Fig. 5.
- the toothed periphery of the ratchet-wheel is preferably formed of rubber or other elastic or non-resonant material that will prevent noise when it is turned backward and said pawl slips over its teeth.
- S is a carbureter which is supported upon the base of the frame or stand A below the reservoir C. It consists generally of a closed case or cylinder T and an oil evaporating or vaporizing drum U, fitted to turn in said cylinder on trunnions u u', as shown in Fig. 2.
- the delivery-pipe gS-of the reservoir C leads into the top or upper part of the case or cylinder T, and a gas delivery or service pipe V,
- the opposite end or head of the cylinder T is iliade detachable and is formed with a bearing and stu ding-box for the trunnion u, which projectsihrough it, and is provided outside of the l carbureter with a cone-pulley u2.
- the outer end of this trunnion is supported by a bracket t', attached to the removable cylinder-head.
- the pulley u2 is connected by a belt with the conepulley r3.
- the rotary vaporizing-drum U is preferably formed of sheet metal with closed ends and a perforated cylindrical shell, around which is wrapped a screen u2, preferably of fine wire-cloth, although other materials, such as felt or wicking, that will take up the oil contained in the lower part of cylinder T and expose it to the air passing through the carbureter may be used.
- a screen u2 preferably of fine wire-cloth, although other materials, such as felt or wicking, that will take up the oil contained in the lower part of cylinder T and expose it to the air passing through the carbureter may be used.
- I prefer to employ the wire-cloth since the oil is not absorbed by it and readily drains therefrom when the vaporizing-drum is at rest or running very slowly, and thus avoids overcarbureting when the How of gas from the carbureter is reduced.
- An opening is made through the head of drum U around its trunnion u', next to the opening into the gas-delivery passage W is a closed oil tank or reservoir, which to insure safety may be buried in the earth outside of the building containing the gasmachine and provided with a filling-pipe w, leading to the surface and furnished with a cap or stopper at its upper end, as shown in Fig. 2.
- X is a pump for supplying oil from tank W to the carbu reter as it is required. It consists of a cylinder and a piston no, which is held normally at the lower limit of its stroke by a spring m', as shown in Fig. l.
- the pumpcylinder is connected at its upper end th rough the suction-valve :r2 with the lower part of tank W by a pipe w and through the discharge-valve m2 with the lower part of the feed-regulating chamber t2 by a pipe 102.
- This chamber t2 which may be cast integrally with the cylinder T and delivery passage or connection if of the carbureter, communicates at or near the bottom through a small opening i2 with the mixing-chamberot' the carbureter and at or near the top through an opening i4 with the delivery-passage t.
- the upper part of the feed-cham ber t2 is connected by a pipe 102 with the upper part of tank W, and a branch pipe wi, provided with a cock w, connects the bottom of the cylinder T with the pipe fm2.
- the pipes w and w3 are provided inside of the wall of the building with cocks 20G and 107 foi-disconnecting the machine from the oil-tank W, particularly while the latter is being filled.
- the pump-cylinder is connected at its lower end by a pipe :r4 with the servicepassage m2 ot' the main valve N.
- the spring g' thereupon moves the auxiliary valve P into its upper position, carrying the head p above the passage o and the head p' above the passage o.
- the passage o' is thus brought into communication with the waste connection m and the passage o into communication with the passage o2.
- the water held in the main-valve chamber below the head n2 now escapes through the passage o' into the waste connection, and water under pressure ⁇ trom the supply connection m flows through the main-valve chamber between the heads 'n and n' of the main valve, the passage o2, the auxiliary-valve chamber O, and the passage o into the main-valve chamber above the head n.
- the main valve will thus be shifted into its lower position, the head it being -carried below the port m3.
- Water .under pressure will now pass from the supply connection m through said port m3 into the service-[viassage m2 and thence into the lower end ol the motor-cylinder under the piston L.
- Said piston being forced upward engages with the stem or rod F and lifts the cylinder E.
- the inlet-Valve 7' in pipe J is opened by the upward movement of the cylinder E, thus admitting air through the intake-opening into the compressor, and the discharge-valve j is closed, preventing the escape of air from the reservoir C back into the compressor.
- the shaft R is turned to the left, as shown in Fig.
- the auxiliary valve establishes communication between the upper end of the main-valve chamber above the valve-head n and the waste connection ml through the passage o and the tubular stem p2. It also establishes in this position communication between the supply connection and the lower end of the main-valve chamber below the valve-head n2 through the passage 02, the auxiliary-valve chamber, and the passage o'.
- the main valve will thus be shifted into its upper position, as shown in Fig. 3, in which its. middle head fn cuts off communication between the supply connection m and the service-port m3 and establishes communication between said service-port and the waste connection m.
- the pump is made of such size that byoperating at intervals corresponding with the intermittent operation of the compressor-motor K a sucient supply of oil to the carbureter will be insured.
- a charge of oil is forced by the pump into the feed-chamber t2
- a portion of it will gradually How into the carbureting or mixing chamber through the small opening t3 until the level is restored therein, any surplus over what is required to fill the feed-chamber t2 up to the opening therefrom into the return-pipe w3 [lowing back through said pipe into tank W.
- the opening t4 By means of the opening t4 the same pressure, and consequently substantially the same level of oil, is maintained in the feed and carbureting chambers.
- the chamber t2 serves as a feed-regulator to keep the quality or condition of the oil in the carbureting-chamber uniform or constant and to prevent the liuctuations in the carburization of the air that would occur if the consumption of oil, which gradually takes place in the carburetingchamber by continuous vaporization when the machine is in operation, were suddenly supplied at intervals by the intermittent action of the pump without the intervening regulatingchamber t2 and its connections.
- the weight R turns the shaft R, as seen in Fig. l, to the right, and in this direction, through the pawl and ratchet-wheel, turns the cone-pulley lrS with it.
- the vaporizing-drum U of the carbureter is thus slowly turned through its connections, hereinbefore described, with the pulley fr3 at a rate corresponding with the downward movement of the cylinder E, which in turn is governed by the rate of delivery of gas from the carbureter into the main or service pipe V.
- oil will be taken up from the. lower part of the carbureter-cylinder T more or less rapidly and a greater or less surface exposed t-o the air contained in the carbureter, according to the rate of dow of air into the carbureter and the rate of delivery of gas therefrom. In this way the air is supplied With the proper proportion of oil-vapor, and gas of nearly constant quality or richness is produced at whatever rate it may be consumed or delivered by the machine.
- the outer cylinders D and G of the air-compressor B and reservoir C With elevated bottoms the quantity of water or other liquid required for sealing the lower ends of the inner movable cylinders E and H is reduced, and by providing the cylinder D of the air-compressor with a hollow column, through which the actuating connection of the movable cylinder E passes, I am enabled to dispense with outside levers or other cumbersome connections, which are not only7 unsightly, but are in the way and more liable to be disturbed and to get out of order.
- the gas be uniformly carbureted, but also that it be delivered at a constant pressure, whether more or less is used, and to this end it is essential that the moving parts of the machine in contact with the air-supply or gas operate with uniform freedom and without shock, as any slight increase of pressure or sudden impulse imparted to the air-supply or gas causes the lights supplied thereby to burn up and smoke IOO ITO
- a portable oiltank may be mounted upon the Hoor-stand or frame A and detachably connected with the carbureter S in place of the permanent tank W.
- the oil-tank may also be located above the carbureter and oil supplied to the latter by gravity, thus dispensing with the pump X, suitable provision being made in the arrangement of the connections or otherwise to maintain the required constant level of oil in the mixing-chamber of the carbureter.
- the small quantity of water which collects in the carbureter during the constant operation of the machine may be drawn off, by opening the cock m5, through the pipes w3 and @U4 into the tank W, from which it maybe pumped out if it accumulates in sufiicient quantities.

A spiral spring q', surrounding the rod q and bearing at its lower end against the upper end of the valve-case and at its upper end against a collar on said rod, tends to move the valve into and hold it in its upper position. The other arm of the lever Q is forked and projects on opposite sides of the stem or rod F into the path of the piston L. To this arm of said lever is pivoted a catch q2, which is pressed toward the stem F by a spring Q3 and is adapted to slip over and engage with a cross-piece g4, attached to frame k', as shown in Fig. 3, when the inner arm of said `lever Q is carried upward by the piston L. The stein F is provided with acollar or shoulder]c2 so located thereon that it will disengage the catch q2 from the crosspiece g4 when the cylinder E of the air-compressor approaches the limit of its downward movement.
It is the intention ordinarily to operate the motor by water, and when a water-supply having the requisite pressure is available a supply-pipe is attached to the connection m and a waste-pipe to the connection m.
Risa shaft supported horizontally below the air-compressor B and provided with grooved pulleys r r and r', which are fixed thereon, a ratchet-wheel r2, also fixed thereon, and a cone-pulley r3, loosely mounted upon said shaft with its larger end next to said ratchetwheel, as shown in Fig. 4. The pulleys r r are connected by cords or belts with a crosshead f3 on the stem or rod F, and a weight R is connected by a cord or belt with the pulley r, the weight-cord being wound on the pulley r in a direction opposite to the winding of the cords on the pulleys fr, so that said weight tends to pull the cylinder E downward. The cone-pulley r3 is provided with a pawl r4, pivoted thereto and held by a spring in yieldingengagement with the ratchet-wheel r2, as shown in Fig. 5. The toothed periphery of the ratchet-wheel is preferably formed of rubber or other elastic or non-resonant material that will prevent noise when it is turned backward and said pawl slips over its teeth.
S is a carbureter which is supported upon the base of the frame or stand A below the reservoir C. It consists generally of a closed case or cylinder T and an oil evaporating or vaporizing drum U, fitted to turn in said cylinder on trunnions u u', as shown in Fig. 2. The delivery-pipe gS-of the reservoir C leads into the top or upper part of the case or cylinder T, and a gas delivery or service pipe V,
provided with a cock e, is attached to the delivery connection t, which opens out of the IOD IIO
cylinder T through one end thereof around the bearing of trunnion u. The opposite end or head of the cylinder T is iliade detachable and is formed with a bearing and stu ding-box for the trunnion u, which projectsihrough it, and is provided outside of the l carbureter with a cone-pulley u2. The outer end of this trunnion is supported by a bracket t', attached to the removable cylinder-head. The pulley u2 is connected by a belt with the conepulley r3. By removing the detachable head, with the pulley u2 and the trunnion u, access is had to the interior of the carbureter for inspection and repairs.
The rotary vaporizing-drum U is preferably formed of sheet metal with closed ends and a perforated cylindrical shell, around which is wrapped a screen u2, preferably of fine wire-cloth, although other materials, such as felt or wicking, that will take up the oil contained in the lower part of cylinder T and expose it to the air passing through the carbureter may be used. I prefer to employ the wire-cloth, since the oil is not absorbed by it and readily drains therefrom when the vaporizing-drum is at rest or running very slowly, and thus avoids overcarbureting when the How of gas from the carbureter is reduced. An opening is made through the head of drum U around its trunnion u', next to the opening into the gas-delivery passage W is a closed oil tank or reservoir, which to insure safety may be buried in the earth outside of the building containing the gasmachine and provided with a filling-pipe w, leading to the surface and furnished with a cap or stopper at its upper end, as shown in Fig. 2.
X is a pump for supplying oil from tank W to the carbu reter as it is required. It consists of a cylinder and a piston no, which is held normally at the lower limit of its stroke by a spring m', as shown in Fig. l. The pumpcylinder is connected at its upper end th rough the suction-valve :r2 with the lower part of tank W by a pipe w and through the discharge-valve m2 with the lower part of the feed-regulating chamber t2 by a pipe 102. This chamber t2, which may be cast integrally with the cylinder T and delivery passage or connection if of the carbureter, communicates at or near the bottom through a small opening i2 with the mixing-chamberot' the carbureter and at or near the top through an opening i4 with the delivery-passage t. The upper part of the feed-cham ber t2 is connected by a pipe 102 with the upper part of tank W, and a branch pipe wi, provided with a cock w, connects the bottom of the cylinder T with the pipe fm2. The pipes w and w3 are provided inside of the wall of the building with cocks 20G and 107 foi-disconnecting the machine from the oil-tank W, particularly while the latter is being filled. The pump-cylinder is connected at its lower end by a pipe :r4 with the servicepassage m2 ot' the main valve N.
My improved machine operates as follows:
Assuming the movable parts of the machine to be in the positions in which they are shown in the drawings, and particularly in Figs. l and 3, when the cock i; in the gas main or delivery pipe V is opened and gas is taken from the carbureter the cylinder E in the air-compressor will be drawn down by the weight R' and will force air through the pipe J and discharge-valvej therein into the reservoir C and thence through the pipe g2 into the carbureter at the rate that the gas is taken therefrom. When the cylinder E approaches the limit ot' its downward movement, the collar f2 comes into contact with the catch q2 and disengaging it from the cross-piece g4 releases the lever Q. The spring g' thereupon moves the auxiliary valve P into its upper position, carrying the head p above the passage o and the head p' above the passage o. The passage o' is thus brought into communication with the waste connection m and the passage o into communication with the passage o2. The water held in the main-valve chamber below the head n2 now escapes through the passage o' into the waste connection, and water under pressure `trom the supply connection m flows through the main-valve chamber between the heads 'n and n' of the main valve, the passage o2, the auxiliary-valve chamber O, and the passage o into the main-valve chamber above the head n. The main valve will thus be shifted into its lower position, the head it being -carried below the port m3. Water .under pressure will now pass from the supply connection m through said port m3 into the service-[viassage m2 and thence into the lower end ol the motor-cylinder under the piston L. Said piston being forced upward engages with the stem or rod F and lifts the cylinder E. The inlet-Valve 7' in pipe J is opened by the upward movement of the cylinder E, thus admitting air through the intake-opening into the compressor, and the discharge-valve j is closed, preventing the escape of air from the reservoir C back into the compressor. The shaft R is turned to the left, as shown in Fig. l, by its connections with the rod F, and the Weight-cord is thus wound up on the pulley r, the teeth of the ratchet-wheel r2 slipping by the pawl `r4 and the pulley r2 remaining stationary. lVhile the cylinder E is being lit'ted to take in a charge of air into the compressor B, the carbureter S will be supplied with air from the eXpansi ble reservoir C, the cylinder H, which is properly weighted to maintain the desired pressure, descending d nring the. ascent of the cylinderE. When lhecylinderE approaches the limit of its upward movement, the piston L engages with and raises the inner arm of leVerQ, compressing the spring q' and shifting the auxiliary valve P into its lower position, as shown in Fig. 3. At the same time the catch q2 is carried into engagement with the crosspiece Q4, thus locking and holding the auxiliary valve in its lower position until itis again When moved released, as above explained.
into its lower-` position, the auxiliary valve establishes communication between the upper end of the main-valve chamber above the valve-head n and the waste connection ml through the passage o and the tubular stem p2. It also establishes in this position communication between the supply connection and the lower end of the main-valve chamber below the valve-head n2 through the passage 02, the auxiliary-valve chamber, and the passage o'. The main valve will thus be shifted into its upper position, as shown in Fig. 3, in which its. middle head fn cuts off communication between the supply connection m and the service-port m3 and establishes communication between said service-port and the waste connection m. The water contained in the motor-cylinder now escapes therefrom, allowing the piston L, which is made heavy or is weighted, to descend to its original position, as shown in Fig. 3, in the lower end of the motor-cylinder. As soon as the piston L leaves the rod F the cylinder E will descend, at rstquite rapidly, closing the inletvalvej, opening the discharge-valvej', and forcing the cylinder H of reservoir C upward until the air taken therefrom during 'the ascent of cylinder E has been restored. Every time the piston L is lifted by the admission of water or other fluid under pressure into the lower end of the cylinder K the actuating fluid is admitted through pipe 004 into the cylinder of pump X belowits piston m and said piston is driven upward, forcing the oil above it through pipe L02 into the feed-chamber t2 of the carbu reter. When the actuating Huid is released by the valve N from the motorcylinder, it is also released from the pumpcylinder, and the piston :r is forced downward by spring drawing oil through pipe w' from tank W into the upper end of the pump-cylinder, to be forced therefrom into the carbureter when the pump-piston is again driven upward. The pump is made of such size that byoperating at intervals corresponding with the intermittent operation of the compressor-motor K a sucient supply of oil to the carbureter will be insured. When a charge of oil is forced by the pump into the feed-chamber t2, a portion of it will gradually How into the carbureting or mixing chamber through the small opening t3 until the level is restored therein, any surplus over what is required to fill the feed-chamber t2 up to the opening therefrom into the return-pipe w3 [lowing back through said pipe into tank W. By means of the opening t4 the same pressure, and consequently substantially the same level of oil, is maintained in the feed and carbureting chambers. The chamber t2 serves as a feed-regulator to keep the quality or condition of the oil in the carbureting-chamber uniform or constant and to prevent the liuctuations in the carburization of the air that would occur if the consumption of oil, which gradually takes place in the carburetingchamber by continuous vaporization when the machine is in operation, were suddenly supplied at intervals by the intermittent action of the pump without the intervening regulatingchamber t2 and its connections. As the cylinder E descends the weight R turns the shaft R, as seen in Fig. l, to the right, and in this direction, through the pawl and ratchet-wheel, turns the cone-pulley lrS with it. The vaporizing-drum U of the carbureter is thus slowly turned through its connections, hereinbefore described, with the pulley fr3 at a rate corresponding with the downward movement of the cylinder E, which in turn is governed by the rate of delivery of gas from the carbureter into the main or service pipe V. Thus oil will be taken up from the. lower part of the carbureter-cylinder T more or less rapidly and a greater or less surface exposed t-o the air contained in the carbureter, according to the rate of dow of air into the carbureter and the rate of delivery of gas therefrom. In this way the air is supplied With the proper proportion of oil-vapor, and gas of nearly constant quality or richness is produced at whatever rate it may be consumed or delivered by the machine. The oil being taken up from the bottom of the cylinder T by the rotary drum or cylinder U, the less volatile portions are not left in the carbureter to form a thick sediment or residuum, but are taken up and carried off with the air-current passing through the screen with the more volatile and easily-vaporized portions. In this way the quality or condition of the oil in the carbureter is kept constant. By taking the gas directly from the carbureter and providing the machine with an eX- pansible air-reservoir for maintaining the supply of air to the carburetor at a constant pressure, gas is produced only as it is required and the danger of maintaining a considerable volume of gas in the machine is avoided.
By constructing the outer cylinders D and G of the air-compressor B and reservoir C with elevated bottoms the quantity of water or other liquid required for sealing the lower ends of the inner movable cylinders E and H is reduced, and by providing the cylinder D of the air-compressor with a hollow column, through which the actuating connection of the movable cylinder E passes, I am enabled to dispense with outside levers or other cumbersome connections, which are not only7 unsightly, but are in the way and more liable to be disturbed and to get out of order.
To secure satisfactory results, especially in the production of gas for lighting purposes, it is not only essential that the gas be uniformly carbureted, but also that it be delivered at a constant pressure, whether more or less is used, and to this end it is essential that the moving parts of the machine in contact with the air-supply or gas operate with uniform freedom and without shock, as any slight increase of pressure or sudden impulse imparted to the air-supply or gas causes the lights supplied thereby to burn up and smoke IOO ITO
or Vary in intensity. In my machine the cylinders E and H, which produce and maintain the air-supply to the carbu reter and the pressure under which the gas is delivered from the carbureter, move with perfect freedom and the work to which the cylinder E is subjected of turning the vaporizingdruln U of the carbureter is light and practically constant. While the cylinder E controls the operation of the motor K, it is not subjected to the Work of shifting the valve mechanism which controls the supply and release of the actuating medium to and from said motor. When gas is being produced and delivered by the machine at such a rate as to accelerate the operation ofthe machine, the weight R', by which the cylinder E is drawn downward, is prevented from imparting a sudden increase of pressure or shock to the air contained in the machine by the yielding connection, hereinbefore described,between said cylinder and its stem or rod E.
Under certain conditions a portable oiltank may be mounted upon the Hoor-stand or frame A and detachably connected with the carbureter S in place of the permanent tank W. The oil-tank may also be located above the carbureter and oil supplied to the latter by gravity, thus dispensing with the pump X, suitable provision being made in the arrangement of the connections or otherwise to maintain the required constant level of oil in the mixing-chamber of the carbureter.
The small quantity of water which collects in the carbureter during the constant operation of the machine may be drawn off, by opening the cock m5, through the pipes w3 and @U4 into the tank W, from which it maybe pumped out if it accumulates in sufiicient quantities.
