' FUEL-FEEDING APPARATUS- Specification of Letters Patent.

, useful Fuel-Feedin Apparatus, of which the I passage-way extending in atangential direc following is a speci cation. 4
My invention relates to fuel-feeding apparatus, and more articularly to means for delivering the pul verized material from the pulverizing-cylinder to the furnace; and it consists, broadly, in providing the periphery of the cylinder, near its discharge end, with a tion from the periphery of the cylinder and curving into the plane of the longitudinal axis of the cylinder, extending thence away to the point where the pulverized material is to be used.
A practical embodiment of my invention is represented in the accompanying drawings, 1n which Figure 1 is a side view of a portion of a pulverizin -cylinder, showin it in side elevation with -t e discharge-con uit leading therefrom. Fig. 2 is a similar view in to plan re-' presenting two discharge-conduits iametrically located with respect to each other, and Fig. 3 is a transverse section in the plane of the line A A of Fig. 2.
The pulverizing-cylinder, in which the material to be fed to the furnace is reduced to a finely-pulverized or floured condition, is denoted by 1. At'its discharge end it is provided with one or more discharge-conduits, in the present instance two, which extend from its periphery in a tangential direction, as denoted at 2 and 3, in the present instance at oints diametrically opposite each other an which after following the curve of the cylinder a short distance (denoted at 4 and 5) gradually curve into the plane of the longitudinal axis of the cylinder, as shown at 6,
- Fig. 1, and then gradually converge, as shown at 7 and 8, Fig. 2, until theyunite and form a single discharge-passage 9, which may be continued directly either in a right line or in suitable curved lines, as the .case may be, to the point where the fuel is to be burned in the furnace. The size of the discharge-conduits leading from the cylinder will naturally depend upon the number of such conduits employed, which'may be one or more, but preferably two, as shown.
. It has been found by experience that the pulverized fuel will be naturally discharged 1n atangential direction under centrifugal force at the periphery of the cylinder with greater conformity and freedom than at any other point, and at the same'time it becomes important, particularly in connection with locomotives, that the flow of the pulverized material should be in a direction correspondin to the longitudinal axis of the pulverizing cy inder at a point as near the discharge end of the cylinder as may be feasible; To this end I have provided the curved conduits which utilize the centrifu al action to start the flow and then prompt y convert it by a gradual turn into a flow directly away from the cylinder in the longitudinal direction of the same.
. What I claim is 1., The combination with the cylinder, of a discharge-conduit extending tangentially from the periphery of the cylinder and gradually curved into a position extending in a direction corresponding to the longitudinal axis of the cylinder.
2. The combination with the cylinder, of a plurality of discharge-conduits extending tangentially from the peri hery of the cylinder and gradually .curved and merged into one conduit extending in a direction corres onding to the longitudinal axis of the cyliner. a
