HENRY H. ZIMMERMAN, OF HARVEL, ILLINOIS.
LAM r-r-Burmlaa.`
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 704,422, dated JulyvS, 1902.
Application filed October 29,1901. Serial No. 80,465. (No model.)
To all whom, t may con/cern:
Be it known that I, HENRY H. ZIMMERMAN,
a citizen of the United States, residing atV Harvel, in the county of AI\Iontgomery and State of Illinois, have invented new and useful Improvements in Lamp-Burners, of which the following is a speciication.
This invention relates to lamp-burners, the object in view being to provide means in connection with the burner itself whereby the lamp font or reservoir may be iilled without requiring the use of a separate and iudependent filling aperture and cap in the fout itself.
The burner itself is equippedwith a fillingthe flame-cone thereto when said cone is closed. Fig. 2 is a similar view with the flamecone thrown open.
Similar numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in both figures.
Referring to the drawings, `1 designates a sufficient portion of a lamp font or reservoir to illustrate the application of the present invention thereto and to the burner. The burner may be of any ordinary construction and is shown to comprise a base or body portion 2, having suitable provision for securing the same in the font, a perforated floor 3, terminating in a galleryior chimney-rest 4, chimney-retaining fingers 5, and a flame-cone 6. rlhe burner also comprises the usual wicktube 7 and Wick-raiser S, which is shown in engagement with the wick illustrated at 9.
In carrying out the present invention the llame-cone is hinged at one side of the burner, as shown at 10, while at the opposite side of the burner there is arranged alling-tube l1.-
This filling-tube sets at an inclination,as illustrated in the drawings, and passes through an opening 12 in the floor 3 and also through an opening 13 in the bottom or base of the burner. The tube 11 is suitably fastened to the floor oribottom of the burner and is supported in'place` thereby, while the lower end of the tube is preferably contracted or tapered whereit passes through the bottom of the burner.
` Thevupper or receiving end or mouth ofthe filling-tube is-cut on a concave or curve corresponding to the curvature of the inner surface of the flame-cone 6,'so that when the latter is closed, as shown in Fig. 1, it acts as a cap or closure for the mouth of said tube, preventing the escape or spilling of the oil. The iiame-cone 6 is designed to lie close to or in actual contact with the mouth of the filling-tube and is provided upon its inner side with a curved flange 14, which partially surrounds the upper portion of the mouth of the tube and further assists in preventing the spilling-of the oil in case the lamp is partially or wholly overturned.
From the foregoing description it will be seen that the flame-cone constitutes a cap or Aclosure for the filling-tube. The filling-tube does away withthe ordinary aperture and cap in the font itself and adds but little to the eX- pense of the burner. When the iiame-cone is closed, the fillingtube is entirely concealed and there is nothing to indicate its presence. When the dame-cone is thrown open for the purpose of trimming the wick, the mouth of the lling-tube is simultaneously exposed for the reception of oil.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new is- A lamp-burner embodying a base or body having thereon a perforated Iioor 3 and a cone 6, the cone being closely hinged to the floor 3 at one point and having an inward concave bend below its upper convex contour and also having on the inner side at a point opposite the hinged connection a downwardly and inwardly inclined curved flange 14 at an elevation above the lower edge of the cone, and a filling-tube passing through and supported by the oor and oorrelative parts of the burner, the said flange bearing against the upper por said tube diverging toward the upper end and tion of the tnb'e when the cone is closed. xo inclined upwardly and outwardly and the up- In testimony whereof I aix my signature per end cut away to form a concave seat corin presence of two witnesses.
