OIL-BURNER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 23, 1911.
Application filed February 2, 1910. Serial No. 541,502.
It all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, SIMEoN J. VVATTs, DAVID 0. Jonas, and WILLIAM C. BARTON, citizens of the United States, residing at El Paso, in the county of El Paso and State of Texas, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in OilBurners, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying draw-- mgs.
This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in oil burners and has for its object to provide a simple device primarily adapted for the burning of crude oil in cooking ranges, heating stoves and the like which is of such construction that a surface of large area is provided over which the oil is evenly spread, thereby causing a more quick and thorough generation than has been possible with devices of this character as heretofore constructed.
A further object is to provide an oil pan wherein that portion of the oil having the greatest volatile properties is first consumed, while the heavier or less volatile portion is permitted to spread upon a separate generating plate arranged within the pan where it is then ignited by heat generated in the burner.
A still further object is to provide a device of the above character which will be simple in construction, economical in cost, reliable, durable, and efficient in use.
With these and other objects in view, the invention consists of the novel features of construction and the combination and ar rangement of parts hereinafter fully clescribed and claimed, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a side elevation of our im proved burner, the draft cap being removed; Fig. 2 is a top plan view thereof; Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the removable oil receiving plate; Fig. at is a side elevation of the plate; Fig. 5 is an end elevation of the pan; Fig. 6 is a top plan view of the adjustable draft cap; Fig. 7 is a side elevation of the draft cap; Fig. 8 is a perspective View illustrating the application of the burner; and Fig. 9 is a top plan view of a slightly modified form of the oil distributing plate.
Referring more particularly to the drawings 1 indicates our improved burner which is adapted to be arranged within the fire box of a stove, as shown in Fig. 8. This pan is preferably constructed from heavy sheet metal and comprises an elongated body portion and an enlarged end portion 1. This end portion is disposed exteriorly of the stove when the pan is arranged in position for use, the body portion thereof extending inwardly through a suitable opening in the stove casing and supported therein in any suitable manner. The bottom of the burner pan is inclined downwardly from its inner to its outer end, as shown at 7, and is adapted to conduct and spread the oil over its entire surface to secure a more thorough generation of the gases. The extension 1' formed upon the outer end of the burner has an opening 5 therein. At points around the periphery of the opening 5 lugs 5 are formed which are stepped, as clearly shown in Fig. 1. These stepped lugs are adapted to support the draft cap 3, said cap being provided with a plurality of radially ex tending studs 4 at its upper end. These studs are adapted to be disposed upon any of the steps of the lugs whereby the draft to the interior of the burner may be regulated as desired, the funnel cap being raised or lowered within the opening 5 in the top of the extension.
An oil distributing generating plate 2 is arranged within the burner casing and supported upon the inclined bottom 7 thereof. This plate is formed upon its longitudinal edges with the flanges 2 and at intervals is provided with the depending supporting legs 8 which are adapted to support the plate upon the bottom of the burner pan in an oppositely inclined position with relation thereto. As clearly shown in Fig. 3, the outer end of this plate is of substantially circular form and is adapted to be disposed immediately beneath the funnel-shaped draft cap 3 through which the oil is supplied to the burner. It will likewise be observed that the bottom of this outer end portion of the plate 2 is downwardly and outwardly inclined oppositely to its inwardly extending portion, as illustrated by the dotted line in Fig. 4. Thus, a quantity of oil first accumulates in the circular enlargement of the plate and finally emerges from the cup-shaped portion and gravitates downwardly and inwardly upon the inclined body portion thereof. The oil is ignited upon this plate and that portion of the oil possessing the volatile properties in the highest degree will be consumed. The remaining portion of the oil or that which is heavier and less volatile passes from the plate 2 onto the oppositely inclined bottom 7 of the burner pan. It is a well known fact that the heavier oils which lack the necessary volatile properties to quickly generate the same, when spread evenly over a heated surface will generate much quicker and more evenly, causing almost perfect combustion, and leaving less refuse than remains as a natural result of imperfect generation. Thus as the oil is conveyed over the slanting bottom of the burner pan, the highly heated surface and the fact that the oil is spread upon the same in a very thin layer will cause its complete and perfect combustion.
While the oil may be supplied to the burner in any approved manner which may be deemed most desirable, we preferably employ an oil tank 10 arranged and supported adjacent to the stove in any suitable manner and having suitably connected thereto the supply pipe 11, the flow of oil being controlled by means of a suitable valve 12. The extremity of the supply pipe is disposed through the funnel-cap 3 and below the lower end thereof, which will insure the complete disposition of the oil upon the outer end of the plate 2, and prevent drafts of air from spreading the same before it enters through the funnel-cap 3.
When the device is adapted to be used in large sized heating stoves or furnaces, the plate 2 would preferably be formed with a plurality of laterally extending chambers 6, as shown in Fig. 9, whereby means are provided for a more thorough distribution and combustion of the oil and also permits of a greater flow of the oil so that a much larger quantity is consumed and a greater volume of heat thus obtained.
From the foregoing it is believed that the construction, operation and arrangement of our improved oil burner will be readily understood. The device is extremely simple and very reliable and efficient in use. It is adapted for the burning of all grades of fuel oil, and is of such construction that as advantageous results may be secured by the use of heavy petroleum as with the lightest of oils.
While we have particularly pointed out the preferable embodiment of our invention, it will, of course, be understood that the same is susceptible of many minor modifications without departing from the essential features or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
