SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 703,841, dated July 1, 1902.
Application filed January 8, 1901. Serial No. #12507. (No model.)
To ctZZ whom, itmay concern.-
Be it known that I, ALBERT R. SEAMAN, a citizen of the United States of America, residing in Connellsville, in the county of Fayette 5 and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Automatic Fire-Lighters; and Ido hereby declare that the following is a full, exact, and clear description of the invention,such as will to enable-others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
My invention relates to improvements in automatic fire-lighters; and the object of my invention isthe provision of a simple, inexpensive, and practical device which will at a set and determined time operate automatically to ignite the fire, and thus save time, trouble, and inconvenience usually experienced.
\Vith this object in view my invention consists of an automatic fire-lighter embodying novel features of construction and combination of parts,substantially as disclosed herein.
Figure 1 represents a perspective view of z 5 my device set and ready for operation. Fig.
ing the match, and upon the base-plate is mounted at B, adjustable by nut-and-bolt connection, the block 0, which is provided with a kerf or channel D, in which fits and is placed a match J, and to retain the arm in position ready for release I provide the pin K, which is seated in an opening in the block. From this construction it will be seen that the block is mounted on the friction baseplate and that the arm carrying the match is retained ready for operation by the pin, and from said pin leads-a chain or cord L to the tripping or alarm-operating arbor M of when the set time for lighting the fire arrives the alarm-arbor turns, drawing the cord or chainand releasing the spring-arm, the cord or connection between the pin and alarmarbor being so arranged that the turning of the arbor draws the pin out, which carries the'match over the friction-plate and brings it lighted in contact with the wick P, carried by the spring-clasp Q,which is secured to the angular metal fender R,which fender is secured upon the board or lever S, which is hinged at T to the body, and a cushion-spring U is provided at the other end of the lever to relieve shock to the parts when the springarm contacts with the fender. To prevent loss of the pin, I provide the cord or chain V, which issecured at one end to the said pin and at the other end to the pintle W of the hinge T, as will be apparent.
In use the spring-arm with match is retained in position shown in Fig. 1, and when the clock designates the time that the fire is to be lighted the alarm-arbor turns and withdraws the pin, the arm with match lights the match on the friction-plate and applies the match to the wick, which beingadjacent to the kindling lights it and starts the fire automatically.
It will be seen that my device will light the fire at the determined time and will save the time and prevent the annoyance incident to the person being obliged to get up and perform this labor.
1. An automatic fire-lighter, composed of a base-plate, a body adjustably connected thereto, a spring match-carrier mounted in the body, a lever connected to the body and carrying a lighter, and devices for retaining and releasing the match-carrier at the proper time to apply the match to the said lighter.
2. An automatic fire-lighter, composed of a base-plate, a body thereon, a lever hinged to the body, a spring-cushion at one end of said lever, a metal fender at the other end, a lighter secured to thefender, a springs-operated match-carrier in thebody, a pin forholding the carrier with match, a clock connected the alarm-clock N, the clock being on a shelf 50 or retained by means of the leg-sockets O and the pivoted retainer 0 on the body, and
with the pin to release the same at the set time to allow the carrier to apply the match to the lighter.
mechanism for releasing the pin and allowing the carrier to strike the match and light the lighter or t rch.
