FREDERIC GOK, 0F NEW YORK, N. Y.
IMPROVED APPARATUS FOR VAPORIZVING AND BURNING LIQUID HYDROCARBONS.
I Specication forming part of Letters Patent N0. 68,702, dated September 10, 1867.4
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, FREDERIC (300K, of the M city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Apparatus for Vaporizing and Burning Liquid Hydrocarbons; and l do hereby declare that the following is a full,clear and exact description of the same, reference being had to theaccompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 represents a cross-section through line C D, Fig. 2. Fig. 2 is a horizontal section through line A B of Fig. l. Fig. 3 is a top view of plates E F. Fig. 4 is a top view of the inverted chamber K. Fig. 5 is a top view of air-pipe H. Fig. 6 is atop view of the spreader I. Fig. 7 is a side view of staves J. Fig. Sis atop view of the cover G. Fig. 9 is an outside View of the inverted chamber K.
Similar letters of reference indicate like parts in all the figures.
By the apparatus shown and described in this application petroleum and other hydrocarbon liquids are burned in a furnace of peculiar construction under -the best conditions for mixing its gases with air and making perfeet combustion.
The petroleum passes down from a tank set above the combustion-chamber through the oil-pipe L, in which are stop-valves, and flows from the top of the oil-pipe `over the plate H. From thence any portion not evaporated falls to the projection m and to the bottom of theretort, burning' as it falls.
N is a steam-pipe having valves to regulate supply. The lower one, 0, is used as a regulator only, and the upper one, P, to start and stop the steam.
The steam-pipe passes through the oil-pipe, and heats ,the oil, whereby the vapors of the oil, which pass oii at the temperature of the steam, are rst evolved, and assist in the combustion of the heavier oils which iiow over the top of the oil-pipe.
A small quantity of steam is admitted above the oil at Q, which mixes with the gases from the oil and the air supplied by the air-pipe B.
The oilpipe L is surrounded by another pipe, and a space left between, which is filled with any suitable non-conductor to protect the oil-pipe from alternations of temperature.
rIhe burning gases descend by the draft of the furnace, passing through the openings S,
and rise round the chamber K in the annular brick staves.
I construct this portion in this way in orprovide for expansion and contraction.

tiles J and mixes with the dames.
of the steam-pipe N, where it strikes against of the steam with the dames.
a connection from the steam-pipe N to the oil-pipe L, and blowing out the same to free it of impurities without stopping' the fire.
The whole retort stands on an iron bed plate, W, and at X is a hearth extending entirely across fire-bed of the furnace over the of excluding the air from the fire-box of the boiler and causing it all to enter through the combustion-chamber, and protects the lower portion of the apparatus from the heat of the fire in the lire-box of the furnace.
Having thus fully described the nature of my invention, what I claim therein as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The steam and oil pipes L and N, having the connecting-valve V, for the purpose specified.
2. A combustion-chamber for Iourning` liq uid hydrocarbons, made of tire-clay or its equivalent, in sections or staves, in the manner and for the purpose as shown and set forth.
3. The inverted chamber or hood K, when ,arranged for the purpose and in the manner shown.
4. In an apparatus for burning liquid hydrocarbons, the arrangement, respectively, of the steam-pipe L and oil-pipe N, for the purpose of volatilizing the lighter portions of the oil by the heat ofthe steam. A
FREDERIC COOK.
