HYDROCARBON-BURNER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 747,799, dated December 22, 1903.

Application filed June 25, 1903. Serial No. 162,979. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, LOUIS STOOKSTROM, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city of St. Louis, in the State of Missouri, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hydrocarbon-Burners, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description,reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification.

My invention relates to that class of hydrocarbon-burners in which there is a vaporizing-bowl surmounted by a pair of perforated tubesinclosed by an im perforate drum, which is open at top and bottom for the passage of air.

The object of my invention is to'simplify the construction and arrangement of this kind of a burner by having as few parts as possible, which are readily fitted over the vaporizing-bowl. My invention consists infeatures of novelty hereinafter fully described,and pointed out in the claims.

Figure I is a perspective drum of my improved burner. Fig. II is a vertical section of the burner, parts of the inner and outer perforated tubes being shown in elevation. Fig. III is a transverse section.

taken on line III III, Fig. II, Fig. IV is a perspective view showing one of the ribs carried by the outer drum and part of the supporting band or ring. r i

Referring to the drawings, 1 represents the vaporizing-bowl of the burner, which has an inner shoulder 2 and an outer shoulder 3.

The general form of this bowl is well known to those versed in the art and needs no specific description. Resting upon the shoulder 3 is an outer perforated tube 4, and resting upon the shoulder 2 (with an interposed ring View of the outer for the passage of air; but the top and hottomv are somewhat contracted by bending in the material of the drum, as shown at 9. Within the drum isa number of ribs or wings 10, the inner edges of which (when the drum is in place) extend nearly to the tube 4;, so that the drum is held in a concentric position around the tube. The ribs or wingslO are secured to the drum 8, preferably by means ofears 11 formed thereon and which fit in slots formed in the drum and'the outer ends of which are bent up against the outer surface of the drum and ears 12, that are bent over and fit against the inner face of the drum. The inner lower corners of the ribs 10 are tapered off to clear the upper edge of the vap-' orizing-bowl,andthe drum is supported and held from vertical movement by means of a ring or band 13 fitting in notches formed in the inner faces of the ribs 10, which ring.

outer perforated tubes will come to a rest upon their respective shoulders. V

The burner is cheaply constructed and is readilyput together.

I claim as my invention 1. In a hydrocarbon-burner, the combina- .tion of a vaporizing-bowl having inner and outer shoulders to receive inner and outer perforated tubes, an inclosing drum, longitudinally-extending wings secured to said drum, a band carried by said wings, and a pin carried by'said perforated tubes, upon the ends ofwhich pin said band is adapted to rest.

2. In a hydrocarbon-burner, the combination of a vaporizing-bowl, innerand outer perforated tubes supported by the bowl, an inclosing drum, Wings secured to the drum, a

band carried by the wings, and a removable pin passing through said perforated tubes Wings being tapered off and adapted to imand on the projecting ends of which said ring pinge against the vaporizing-bowl to center to is adapted to bear, substantiallyas set forth. the tubes and cylinder as they are placed 3. In a hydrocarbon-burner, the cornbina' upon the bowl, substantially as set forth.

tion of a vaporizingbowl, inner and outer LOUIS STOCKSTROM. perforated tubes carried by the bowl, an in- In presence ofclosing cylinder, and wings secured to the in- NELLIE V. ALEXANDER,

terior of the cylinder, the lower ends of said E. S. KNIGHT.
