LAMP AND BURNER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 2, 1908.
Application filed July 19, 1907. Serial No. 384,510.
To all whomit may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES i FE].L()\VS, a citizen of the United States, residing at West Chclmsford, in the county of Middlcsex and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain ,new and useful Improvements in Lamps and Burners; and I do hcreby declare .the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the inventiom'such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it a pertains to make and use the same.
lVPy invention, as will be hereinafter fully described and claimed, relates to lamps and lamp burners and more particularly to lam burners and. reservoirs therefor, which will render the'fecd of the lamp wholly automatic and will insure the greatest degree of safety, my main object being to provide a self-feeding oil supply to be used in connection with lamps, or for oil stoves and in fact for all manner of burners utilizing the oil as a fuel.
Other objects and advantages will be hereinafter referred to and more particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings which are made a part of this application, Figure l is a side elevation, partly in section of my 1111- proved lamp as applied to a wall, and, Fig.
2 is a detail sectional view of the oil supply reservoir taken on line 22 of Fig. 1.
The details of my invention and coiiperating accessories will be individually designated by numerals, the same numeral corresponding to a similar part in the drawings, 1 designating the main or body portion of my reservoir, open at its upper end. and. adapted to be secured to the wall or ceiling in any desired way, or may be arranged. to rest upon a shelf or table, as will be obvious from the following description.
In Fig. '1 I have shown the said body por tion or reservoir as attached at a coi ivenient part upon the Wall, as by means of the encircling collar 2, secured to the bracket 3 and also having the extension or car 4 to lit over the hook 01' pin .5, or other convenient device, the said bracket being wl'manently or detachablysccured to the wall, as by the screw or nail 6.
In the bottom of the bottom portion 1 I form the seat 7 resting slightly above the bottom of the body portion 1 as upon the annular collar 8, provided with a plurality of perforations 9, through which the oil in the body portion 1 may pass to enter the opening 10 formed in the bottom proper of said body )ortion. Beneath the opening 1.0 I provide the valve seat or basket 1 1 carrying the valve proper 12.
The valve '12 normally rests over the apertures. 13, said apertures being formed in the intervals, so that the bottom of the seat presents the appearance indicated by the numeral 14 in Fig. 2, though it is obvious that any form of openings may be provided, it being understood v that the valve 12 is of sullicient size to fitloosely within the seat or basket 11, so that the oil may pass freely down around the edges thereof into the chamber 1 5, formed by a downward extension of the collar or chamber, said downward extension being designated by the numeral 16.-
The lower end of the chamber 15 is provided with a suitable closure 17, which may be readily removed to clean the interior thereof and particularly to clean or renew the filtering member 18, formed of felt or other 1 Oil of sediment or other impurities.
lonnectcd with the chamberor extension 16 is the oil conveyor or tube if), to convey the oil to the lamp 20, as indicated in Fig. 1, it being understood that the lamp only represents one of the many uses to which the oil veycrtubc IQmay be connected tothe burner of an oil stove or the conveyor tube may be multi died in number, so that the chamber 16 may placed in connection with any desired nu niber of lamps, and I deem it unnecessary to multiply the number of pipe connections in the drawings, in-as-much as I desire it understood that I reserve the right to use any number which the circumstances may require.
It will be understood that the lamp shown in Fig. 1 is of the usual construction, having preferably a pair of wicks .21 controlled in the usual manner by suitable wick-raising and lowering devices QJand 23. I have provided the ordinary device for extinguishing the flame of the lamp, said device having a lever 24 and a convenient means for'controlling the same, as indicated by the cord 25, and as said parts of the lamp are of ordinary construction, I deem it unnecessary to refer further thereto. It will also be seen that I have provided a lamp bell ZS-supported upon thejbracket 27, attached 1 at a convenient point, as to the collar 2.
bottom .of the basket, at preferably regular suitable substance to thoroughly cleanse the may be placed, as, for instance, the coni I now desire to call particular attention to my oil reservoir proper 28, which may be of any desired shape and size and of any materia either glass, sheet metal or other character. In the lower end of the reservoir roper, I provide the valve seat 29, in which locate the valve 30, which is normally held in a depressed or closed position by the spring 31 disposed u on the stem 32 intermediate the head and t e'cross bar 34 and as the valve seat is provided with an extension 35, 'open at its lower end, it is obvious that when the reservoir proper is raised off ofthe plate or from the member 33, thus enabling the reser attainment of great sa ety.
platform 7, t e spring 31 will at once act to orce the valve 30 tightly down upon its seat and, thereby, prevent further escape of the oil, it being understood that the valve stem 32 is of sufficient length to hold the terminal member 33 normally slightly below the edge of the extension 35, so that said terminal 33 will come in contact with the plate 7, before the edge of the extension 35 is brought into contact therewith. It will, therefore, be clearly apparent that the reservoir proper may be readily filled with oil by withdrawlng the same from the body section and pressing the valve inward, as by applying pressure upon the member 33, which can be readily done by the spout of the oil can or with the finger, pencil, or the like, and, after said reservoir has been filled, the .valve 30 automatically closes when pressure is removed voir to be at once disposed inits normally inverted position.
Upon one side of the lower edge of the extension 35, I provide the outwardly curved section 36 which afl'ords an opening at the lower edge of said extension for the escape of the oil, thus permitting onl sufficient oil to escape into the bottom of t e body section 1 to reach slightl above the opening 36, the height of the oi being designated by dotted lines 37. It will thus be seen that I have provided a safety seal in the oil and that the oil in the reservoir proper 28 will be prevented from escaping to reach only to the height designated by the numeral 37, thus insuring a completely automatic control of the Oll feed or source of suppl the result being the It is further obvious that if, for any reason, there should be a back flow from the lamp bod the valve 12 will automatically rise upward and close the aperture 10, thus preventing further back flow into the bottom of the body section and,
and manner of using my improved automatic reservoir for the attainment of a perfect and automatic feed of the oil to sup lamp, or other form of burner, further all descriptionis deemed unnecessary, and while I have described the preferred combination of elements, I wish to com rehend all substantial equivalents and su titutes as may fall fairly in the scope of my invention.
WhatI claim is: v 1. The combinationwith a lamp burner, and a supply tube therefor; of an automatically feedmg reservoir comprising a body, said body being 0 on at its u per end, an annular collar exten ing upwar 1 from the bottom of said bod having. a p urality of perforations theret rou h, 'a seat on said ,c'ollar, an opening in the ottom of said body below said seat, a downwardly extending collar on said body connected to said supply'tube and I adapted to be seated in said body, a valve seat in the bottom of said oil reservoir, an extension'on said seat having an openingat its lower edge, a cross bar in said extension, a valve stem mounted in said cross bar, a valve at one end of said stem, a head at the opposite end thereof, a spring disposed on said stem intermediate the head and cross bar whereby said valve is normally held in closed position and means to secure said body to a wall.
2 The combination with a burner; of an oildsupply reservoir comprising a'body said b0 there-through, a seat on said co lar, an opening in the bottom of said body, a chamber on sald bottom, a supply tube connecting said chamber and burner, a basket in said chamher, a valve in said basket, an oil reservoir adapted to be seated in said body, a valve seated in the bottom of said oil reservoir, an extension on said seat having an outwardly curved portion at its lower edge, a crossbar in said extension, a valve stem mounted on said crossbar, a valve at the upper end of said stem adapted to be normally retained in said eat, a head atthe lower end thereof, a s )ring disposed on said stem intermediate the head and crossbar, said stem normally reaching be ond said extension whereby elng open at 1ts upper end, a collar inthe ottom of said body havin perforations when said oi reservoir is seated in said body,
said stem will engage said seat on the collar and the valve opened, and means to secure said body to a wall.
In testimony whereof I have signed my. name to this specificationin the presence of two subscribing witnesses. i
