GAS-BURNER FOR WATER-I-EATERS.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Dec. 22, 1908.

Application filed. April 25, 1904. Serial No. 204,775.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HERBERT S. HUMPHREY, a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of Kalamazoo, county of Kalamazoo, State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Gas-Burners for WVater-I-Ieaters, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to improvements in gas burners for water heaters.

The objects of this invention are: First: to provide an improved water heater in which a group of gas burners is used, in which all the burners may be adjusted at once to regulate the supply of air thereto. Second: to provide an improved means of supporting the burners in a water heater in which a plurality of burners is used. Third: to provide an improved water heater in which the parts are so formed and arranged that they may be made of sheet metal. Fourth: to provide an improved burner construction in which the parts of the burners may be stamped up from sheet metal, and one which is economical to produce and durable and eflective in use.

Further objects, and objects relating to Y structural details, will definitely appear from the detailed description to follow.

I accomplish the objects of my invention by the devices and means described in the following specification.

The invention is clearly defined and pointed out in the claims.

A structure embodying the features of my invention is clearly illustrated in the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a plan view of a structure embodying the features of my invention, the gas supply pipe being shown broken 0E and with the burner tip of one of the burners removed. Fig. 2 is a detail vertical sectional view taken on line 2-2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a detail horizontal sectional view taken on a line corresponding to line 3-3 of Fig. 2, the base plate of the heater being removed. Fig. 4'. is an enlarged detail sectional view through the gas delivery tube.

In the drawing, the sectional views are taken looking in the direction of the little arrows at the ends of the section lines, and similar letters of reference refer to similar parts throughout the several views.

Referring to the drawing, the base plate I or bottom A is provided with a depressed portion or well A at the center. This well A is provided with a drip pipe at. A bracket A is formed on one side of the base plate for securing the same to the Wall or other support. This base plate is preferably stamped from sheet metal. The casing of my improved water heater, with the water coil or reservoir, rests upon this base or bottom, but, as the same forms no part of this 1nvention, it is not here illustrated.

A ring-like gas delivery tube B is provided for the burners. This gas delivery tube is connected to a suitable gas supply pipe as E. The top plate 13 of the gas delivery tube is flat and is provided with threaded openings or sockets o to receive the burner nozzles o. The burner nozzles c are secured in the lower ends of the burner tubes C. The lower ends of the burner tubes C are turned inwardly and upwardly to embrace the nozzles, which are rigidly secured in position.

The base plate A is provided with suitable openings having upwardly projecting flanges a about the same to receive the burner tubes C. The lower ends of the burner tubes C are reduced, forming shoulders at 0,which rest on the flanges a of the openings through the base plate. The burner tubes O are provided with suitable air ports 0 at their lower ends, which, when the tubes are arranged through the base plate, open beneath the same. The upper ends of the burner tubes C are flared outwardly at C and are provided with outwardly projecting flanges C at the top. burner tubes C are notched at c to receive the lugs t on the burner tips T, which clamp over the flanges C, thereby retaining the tips in position. The tips T have a depressed central portion T and are corrugated, or fluted, radially, thereby forming, when clamped on the flanges C of the burner tubes, laterally opening slot-like jet orifices 0.

Upon the lower ends of the burner tubes C are sleevelike valves D having openings or ports therein which are adapted to be brought into register with the ports or openings c of the burner tubes. By adjusting these valves, the size of the air ports of the burners is regulated. Suitable thumb pieces cl are provided for manipulating these valves. These valves D are all connected to The flanges C on the r a ring F. The ring F is slidably connected to the top plate B of the gas delivery tube B, which is provided with inwardly projecting lugs B on which the ring rests. Pins f project upwardly from the lugs B to engage suitable slots as F in the ring, so that it is slidably retained in position. valves D are provided with inwardly projecting arms G which have slots 9 therein. Pins 9 carried by the ring engage these slots so that the valves are all connected to the ring. Thus connected, when one of the valves is moved, its movement is communicated to the ring which transmits a like movement to the other valves, so that an even adjustment of all is secured.

WVith the parts of my improved water heater formed and arranged as described, I am enabled to form the same entirely of sheet metal, which forms a very light and economical structure and one which is very readily assembled or disassembled should occasion require. By forming the base plate in this manner, the Water heater casing, with its contained parts, can be removed and free access had to the burners. The valves of the burners are easily adjusted to regulate the supply of air. With the base plate formed with the well A therein, any water such as arises from condensation and the like, is collected and delivered from the heater. The valves are so protected that they do not come in contact with the moisture within the heater, and thus are not liable to corrode or become obstructed. By my improved construction and arrangement of the burners, the heat is evenly distributed within the casing.

I have illustrated and described my improved water heater in the form preferred by me on account of its structural simplicity and the economy with which the parts may be produced and assembled. I am aware, however, that it is capable of very great variation in structural details without departing from my invention.

Having thus described my iLivention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:
