I l1/wanton www @man tucenlbe contact-arm 12 and the fixed electrode. When the circuit is thus broken, the nulgnels become denergized and both the ernmture :1nd the rockilig electrode 1re returned to normal position b y thl :retiens of springs 14; and 1t. This operation is pented in exceedingly rapid succession causing' n perfect shower of fat, hot, Spurke` so long` :xslt-he circuit .remains unbroken by the timer. 1h

The iiirtenre so arranged that the Striking-arm of the nrnuiture dees not engage the erin l0 of the rocking electrode until the armature hos almost reached the limit Vof its movement toward the magnets wherebyilithe action of the movable electrode is ver'y quick. The Contact portions oit' the electrodes are provided with Suitable platinum points.

At the lower end.. of the rocking electrode the plug is provided with a seat 1S, preferably conical, and the, electrode iS formed with un enlargement 19 oi correepoi'iding shape touengnge seid seat. By this uw rai'igiclnent'l leakage of compression along the .rocking electrode is prevented.

'l do not Alimit my invention to the details of constlll'uction shown and deScribed as they may be varied Without departing from the spirit und Scope thereof.

Hoving thus 'fully described niy invention what l vclniin es new' and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the'United States, is: l I

l. ln o sparking ip niter,`sr4 plug, e casing carried by 'said plug, a fixed electrode carried by tliepluggnnfl ineulztted therefrom, n rocking electrode carried by the plug having n. ctnitnctlprrui engaging the ixcd electrode und :in :ternoling-erm, :1 cup for the easing, en electro-'umffnet carried by the oep und depending' into the civlsing, :i pivotzilly mounted :'unmture carried by the cap hav ing` a Striking-arm extending downwardly :it one Side of the magnet to engage the ectuating-:irni of the rocking:r electrode, scour ing ineens for del".clnrbly securing the cup, cueing and plugl together, :1nd an electrical connection between the fixed electrode :1nd the nmgnet.

ln n, sparking igniter, :t plug, :1 fixed electrode carried thereby und projecting' bc- ,vond one endv thereof and insulated there from, n rocking electrode carried by `the plug und yn-ojecting beyond both end.` of' the plug` :l contzlctlnrin on one of the pr je :ting ends of the `-rockingelectrode engug ingl the. projectingend of fixed electrode, nn mrtuetix'lg-urin on the other projecting end of the rockingl electrode, :1. ,casing fitting` on the plug, n cap for Suid casing, un electro-inagiict :1nd pivoted arnmture carried by the cup und depending; into the I casing, Suid :.rrmnture having n striking-:mn

dieposed to engage the actuating-erin of the rocking-electrode, and un electrical connection between the fixed electrode and the magnet.

2S. ln n. sparking ignitenn plug, a. lixed electrode carried thereby :md insulated therefrom,` t rocking electrode carried by the plug` having :1. contacbnrm engaging the fixed electrode :1nd en actuating-arm, n. casingvcarried by the plug, a :up for the open end of the casing, means detachnbly SecuringI the plug, cup und casing together, :in

elcctro-nnignet and pivoted armature cnr" ried by the een :rnd removably bodily therewith, Said armature having' e, strikingerln disposed to engage the actuating-erin of the rocking-electrode, unid an electrical connection between the fixed electrode and the nmgnet..

ln testimony whereof I elix my signature in the presence of two Witnesses.
