INDUCTION-CONDUIT FOR EXPLOSION-EIiGINES.

To all whom it may concern:

into the explosion chamber.

ployed for introducing the carbureted air Theinvention consists in the constructionv bywh ch the mixture is warmed during its passage from the carbureter to the engine chamber.

cylin er, as hereinafter set forth.

In the drawings-Figure l is a side elevation of an explosion motor to which my improvements are applied; Fig. 2 is an elevation at right angles to Fig. 1. g

In the operation of explosion engines in which liquid fuel, is employed it has been found desirable to'warm the carbureted mixture before introduction into the explosion The present invention accomplishes this result by extending the induction passage along the wall of the water jacket for the en ine cylinder whereby it will be substantially heated by the water within the jacket. As shown, A 1s a multi-cylinder explosion engine, and B is the water jacket surrounding the cylinders. v

C is a removable plate forming a. portion of thewall of the water jacket and through which access may be obtained to the interior,

said plate being secured by suitable means,

with the ports E is preferably cast integral with the plate C, and, as shown, is of a Y- shaped form. The 'stem F of the Y extends outward and downward from the plate C and is adapted for direct attachment to the Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Aug. 23, 1910. Application filed December 5, 1908. Serial No. 466,157.

the Y lie adjacent to the plane or the plate C and receive heat directly theref' om by conduction. At their upper ends these branches G and G extend beyond the upper edge ofthe plate C and are provided with flange bearings H for coupling them to the engine casing and in registration with the ports E.

It will be apparent that the induction conduit, and particularly theportions G and G thereof, will constantly receive heat from the water in the jacket, and will be maintained at substantially the same temperature. Thus the carbureted mixture passing throughthe conduit will be warmed before entrance to the cylinders.

\Vhat I claim as my invention is:

1. The combination with an explosion engine provided with a water jacket, of a remova of said jacket, and an induction conduit formed integral with and extending along the exterior of said plate and'having its opposite ends communicating respectively with the carbureter and the inlet for the engine.

2. The combination with an explosion enmova le plate forming a portion of the wall of said jacket, an induction conduit formed.

integral with and extending along the ex terior of said plate, the opposite ends of said conduit (projecting beyond the removable plate an communicating withthe carbureter and the engine inlet. I

3. The combination with an explosion en'- gine having a lurality. of cylinders, of a water jacket t erefor, a removable plate formin a ortion of the wall of said jacket and a -s'aped induction conduit for the .carburet-ed' mixture extending along the exl terior of said plate and having the ends of the branches of the Y projecting therebe- 0nd and communicating with the cylinder" inlet and having the st'empf the Y extending beyond the plate am communicating with the carbureter.

4. The combination with an explosion encarbureter, while the branches G and G oil gine, of a water jacket therefor, a iemow' le plate forming a portion of the wall tending beyond said plate :ind communicat-- ing with the carbureter.
