Positioned. at one snie of the gasoineter is a generating re k lflhoving e reduceci conical month 11 connected, by a tubular coupling member or throat 12, with the lower discherge end of a can-bid holder or con-- miner 13. The upper end of the cnrbid holder s formed with an inlet mouth 14: normaiiy closed by a removable cap 15, there the ends of the coupiing bar 12, suitabieflhnges 16, ariepted to be bolted to corresponding flanges formed respectively on the mouth 11 and lower discharge end of the con'miner, While fixed upon the mp is a vertical snhst a-ntiaiiy U shaped member tei cross her 13, adapted to Contact, at its ends, with the vertical arms 19 arising from the inlet mouth 14, for holding the cop against rotation. in one direction.

Joupied to the inonih 11 or the generator and leading therefrom into the gesomoier tank is a gas inlet pipe 20, while ieaing from the gasorneter tank is an outlet pipe 22. Eeyond the gasometer,
