TO ALL WHOM GONCERN:
Be it known that -lf E.' G. KELLEY, of the city, county, and, `Stilte of New York, hovc invented` a. new und improved Petroleum Still; 'and'I do hereby declaro that the following is n full, clear, und exact description f thereof', which will enable' those skilled in the ort to make and-use, the same, Vreference being had to the -uccolnpanying drawings, forming part of this speciiicntion, inwhich- Figure 1 represents a. plan or top view, partly in section, of my improved still.
Figure 2 is a front'elevation of .the some.
Figure 3 is @longitudinal vertical section of the sume, the plsneof section being indicated-by the line l :u iig. 1. i.
Figure 4 is a verticel croseseetion of the seme, the plane of section being indicated by the line y y. fig. 3. Figure 5 is a detail longitudinal sectional view, showings. modification ofevaporating shelves.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding ports. v i 4 This invention relates to a still for eveporating petroleum or other hydrocarbon liquids that is provided with two or more exitsfor the vapor, each of them being connected with s seperate condenser or cooler for the purpose oi' separating, while the stillis in continuous operation, the illuminating oil fromthe gasoline or The invention consists', rst, in so constructing ,the still that the oil can be fed to it in such a. monner that it will evaporate before 4it is collected in the still. For this purpose the-cylindricel still is connected with un inclined semi-cylindrical vessel, which is arranged in line with the still und above the lire-postings, between the still and thechimuey. In this vessel is n seresiof diaphragme, perforated plates, or other devices, over' which the oil, when fed into the vessel at its upper end, is spread in thin sheets, and is partly evaporated by being thus brought in contact with the heated vapors ascending in the still. 4 v
T he invention consists, second, in the nrrungeuuent of the lines for .carrying off the vapor. One of these is arranged in the still, but little above the surface of the petroleum in the latter, and serves to carry ofi' the sluggish, heavy vapors arising from the petroleum, which, when condensed in e ,suitable vapparatus, form the illuminating oil. Another ue `is arranged above the entrance to the feed-vessel for carrying ofi' the lightervapors; the latter flue is arranged slightly inclined, for' the purpose of condensing und collecting the nnphthu o'r gasoline which is produced by such condensation. The upper port of scid iluemuy, if desired, be surrounded by a. suitable cooling apparatus. i
A represents a. fui-noce, of suitable construction und dimensions,.mude of brick or other suitable material, of about the shape indicated in iig. 3. It has o. resdoor, o, ash-box grote c, neer one end, und u. chimney, d, near the other end, es shown. B is the cylindrical boiler, in which the oil is to be distilled. It is made of sheet metal, or othensuitable materiel, about half ns long es the 'urnnce, and ofsuitcble diameter. lt is supported above that end of the furnace in which the grote is arranged. At its inner end it is connected with a. semicylindrical or D-shapcd vessel, C, which is set inclined above the outer end of the furnace, so as to communicate with the outer end o'the cylinder B, as is clearly shown in fig. It enters the rear heed e of the cylinder, above the horizontal diameter of the same, as shown. In the vessel C is arranged a. series of inclined diuphragms or perforated plates, D D, upon which the liquid is spread ns it flows down from the upper end ofthe upperplato to the lower or inner end of the lower plate. Through n perforated horizontal pipe, E, the crude liquid flows in small jets' upon the upper plete D, and is spread upon the saine, so'that it is exposed to 4the action of the heated vapors ascending from the still. It trickles down through the holes in the upper plztte upon the lower plate, and thence upon the next lower plate, and so forth, until it comes into the cylinder. By this arrangement rapid distillation will be effected, ns the o'il will be partly distilled before it entersI the cylinder'. To collect the lighter vapors, s.. pipe, F, is arranged npon'thc upper end of the vessel C, the height of which is varied in accordance with the degree of consistency'whioh it is desired to have in the liquid that is gained from `the upper und lower end of the-'said pipe. The letter is inclined, ss showu,`for the purpose of collecting the liquid .that is condensed in it,
and guiding itinto a brunch pipe,'G, whence the liquid may beconducted to a suits-ble reservoir, or into the` still B, to eid the distillation, or for other purposes. In the lutter case it would be conducted throughnpipe,
H. to the cylinder B, es is indicated by red lines in figs. 1 and 3. The main productsof distillation, the vupors,
which, when condensed, iorm the illuminating oil, nre carried off through u pipe, I, which is arrangedl in the front headof the cylinder alittle' above the level of the contents ci' thc lutter. These vapors nrc henvy and sluggish,
und will not be carried up to the pipe F. In fact it is of importance thnt the pipe I is not too far above the surface of the oil in thecylindcr, as it would notbe reached by the heavy vapors without burning or browning them. The height of the material in the cylinder is regulated by means of suitable gauges J J, which are arranged in the front head of the cylinder B, as shown in figs. 1, 2, and 3. Mon-holes K K should be arranged in the head of the cylinder B, and also in the vessel C, (as in lfig. 3,) to nllow the apparatus to be cleaned. In place of the plates D, blocks L L may be arranged in the vessel C, :1s-shown in fig. 5, for the purpose of spreading und evnporating the oil, or any other arrangement may be used by which the sume object is attained.
A still arranged ns described will be continually working, end will do the work more thoroughly and satisfactorily tlnm the ordinary stills now in use, as it will require less time und fuel to distill n given quantity of oil, and as it separates the naphthe and gasoline from the illuminating oil, which isnt` great importance.
claim as new, and desire to secure yby Letters Pntent 1. Providing a still for petroleum or other hydrocarbon liquids with two pipes F and I for carrying o und separating the products of distillation, substantially as set forth. y
2. The cylindrical boiler B, in combination with the inclined vessel C, in which are inclined diaphrngms D, or their equivalents, substantially as and for the purpose herein shown and described.
3. The above, in combination with the inclined pipe F, 'when the some is arranged as set forth, and with the pipe all made and operating substantially :is und for the purpose herein shown und described.
