The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making partof the same.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that 1, CHARLES B..L0vELEss, of Syracuse, in the county of Onondaga, and in the State of New York, have invented a new and useful Im- .provemeut in Hydrogen and Carbon-Gas Generators,
used for heating-purposes.
Figure 5 is a sectional plan view of the said heater. Figure 6, Sheet II, is a vertical section of 'fig. 1, in Sheet 1.
Figure 7 is a plan view of the bottom of the machine, showing the lead pipe with its perforations and pipes.
Figure 8 is a plan view of the generator, the top being off, showing the holes through the bottom of the copper cylinder and zinc cylinder. The nature of my invention consists in carburetting hydrogen gas-with the light oils of petroleum, for illuminating-purposes; also, the use of hydrogen. gas with oxygen gas, for manufactming-purposes, bythe use of the oxyhydrogen blow-pipe, as hereinafter described.
To enable others skilled in the art to make and use my invention, I will proceed to descxibeits construc- In'its construction, in SheetI and fig. 1, a, the gasometer; a, the oil-chamber, which surrounds the lower end of the gasometer; b, movable float of the gasometer; c, the screw-cap for the admission of oil into the oil-chamber; (l, the gas-pipe, at the top of which the gas is consumed; 1 and 2 are ways and cooks to convey the gas to the heater g and blow-pipe'k; e and f are flexible tubes to convey the gas to heater gand blowpipe k,- h, the battery; 4., the-top of battery, at-
tached to pipe-h, to which it is suspended by bar j and clamps j and slide 9'; l, gas-pipe from oil-chamber to gasometer, after the hydrogen has been carburetted; m, the outlet-pipe, with an ordinary stop-cock; n, the perforated lead pipe.
In fig. 2, o, the copper, and p, the zinc, forming the battery for forming the hydrogen gas; a and 70 showing the same parts'as in fig.-l.
In fig. 3, j, the bar, and i,the'top ofthe battery; j, the clamps for holding the bar. v
In fig. 4,0, the pipe to admit the gas to the heater; 3, the perforated bottom; 4, the perforated heater; g, the heater-case. V
In fig. 5, the holes through the bottom are seen at 6. Part of thetop, seen at 4 in fig. 4, is removed to Show the interior of the burner.
lnSheet II, fig. 6, the. same letters designate like not'see'n in fig. 1, Sheet I. 0,, continuation of pipe is, through which the gas ascends; 'r, the gas-pipe, through whichthe, gas descends to piped, through which it ascends to the burner on top of said pipe; 1) is a hollow tube, in which rod 'q slides up and down for steadying the float b, in gasometer, in rising and falling.
parts as already described.
Fig. 8' is a plan View of the battery, with thebat-v tery detached from the machine, showing the zinc'and copper cylinders, with the .holes in the bottom of the copper cylinder.
its; construction, the battery h is filled at least half full of a solution of sulphuric acid, one part of the acid cylinders are set, and the batte ryis then set on slide s, which is drawn out partly from underthe' bottom of the machine, fitting up into the top i with double lips, which have between them Indiarubber packing,
and secured under clamps j, holding the. battery securely in position. The gas fiom hydrogen is then formed, and passes up pipe is and down to perforated lead pipe 11-,which is at the bottom of the oil-chamber a, which chamber hasbeen fille'dwith oil. Through the hole at cap-screw c, fig. 1, (I contemplate the lighter oils of petroleum to be used,) it is forced through said lead pipe around the machine, forcing its way through said holes in said lead pipe, up through the oil, into gas-pipe t, fig. 6, Sheet I, down said pipe to pipe 0, then up said pipe to the gasometer, and then down pipe r-to piped, where it is consumed at a burner of any kind Imayu'se. I
If the gas is used for heating-purposes,the-ordinary stopcock, above the gas-cocks 1 and 2, ,is turned so as to stop oil the flow of gas, and cook 2 is opened,
heater y, where it is burnt as required. a
This heater is composed of two chambers; The bottom of the lower one is a perforated plate, through which the gas-pipe passes. Through the bottom of the upper chamber are. holes, as seen in fig. 5, Sheet 1. Also, the side of said chamber is made of perforated metal, with a solid top fastened on it by pressing it down with a rim. These holes are for the admission of air for the free use of oxygen. 7
When the blow-pipe is used, the hydrogen is used without being carburetted, as it may be brought directly from the battery h, without passing through the oil. Passing up gas-pipe d, stop-cock 1 is opened,'and it is conveyed through tube f to point It.
parts as on Sheet I. Additional letters show parts In fig. 7, same sheet, like letters designate like In the operation of my invention," having described to four or five parts water, into which copper and zinc as an insulator, and the bar It is put over the top, i,

nary blow-pipe is attached to point It, thus forming the common oxyhydrogen blow-pipe, which may be used for dentists and manyother purposes.
The outlet-cock m is for letting off any condensation of hydrogen gas that may gather in the pipes 0 and 0-, which have each an opening into said pipe m in the bottom of the machine.
Having thus full describedthe construction and operation of my in ention,
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Let 2. The combination of the pipe k, leadpip'e n, with perforations, pipes l, and -t, and o, with gasometer, and descending gas-piper with gasometer, and pipe (I with gas-burner, also the rod q q with pipe g,- for guiding the floatin the gasometer.
3; The perforated lead pipe n, with oil-reservoir a, as described and for the purposes set forth.
4. The heater g, constructed substantially as described, and one'rating as and for the purposes set forth. 7 V
5. The combination of the pipes in and k,.as described, and for the purposes of an oxyhydrogen'blowpipe, as set forth.
In testimony that I claim the above-described improvement in hydrogen and carbon-gas generators, which I believe tobe new and useful, I have hereunto signed my name, this 13th day of October, 1868.
