IMPROVEMENT IN ATOMIZERS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 115,615, dated June 6, 1871; reissue No. 6,845, dated March 23, 1875; application filed February 3, 1875.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLES P. JANES, of Boston, of the county of Sufl'olk and State of Massachusetts, have invented an Improved Atomizer; and do hereby declare the same to be fully described in the following specification and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which- Figure 1 is a front elevation; Fig. 2, a vertical Section; Fig. 3, a top view; and Fig. 4 an end elevation ot'it.

In such drawings,.Adenotes an elastic-bulb air-syringe, arranged in and supported by a ful'cated standard, B, extended down through acork, O, of a bottle, 1). At one end the syringe has a jet-nozzle, a, and at the other it is provided with a valve case, 1), containing a disk-valve, c, the whole being so that when the bulb, after being collapsed or compressed, may be in the act of expanding air will be drawn into it through the valve-seat, and when the bulb is next compressed such air will be forced out of it through the nozzle to and directly over the top of a jet-pipe, d, which formspart of the forked standard, and is extended down into the bottle.

In carrying out myin vention I combine with the jet-pipe a small drip-cup, e, and a pipe, f, to lead therefrom down alongside of the jetpipe, so as to open into the bottle, the opening from the drip-cup into the conduit f being shown at g in Fig. 3. Furthermore, I combine the valve-case and the nozzle with a pipe and a branch or support extending from the said pipe, whereby the elastic bulb is supported at opposite ends or parts, as shown.

It is well understood that when a stream of air is blown by the air-Syringe across the top of the jet-pipe a column of liquid from the bottle will be raised through the jet-tube, and, as itmay be discharged therefrom, will be broken up into fine spray or vapor.

More or less of'the liquid will trickle down the outside of the jet-tube. The drip-cup and its conduit are to catch the surplus liquid and return it to the bottle. The nozzle of the airsyringe iS fastened to the drip-cup, the valvecase being secured to the branch k of the forked standard. This arrangement not only supports the air-syringe to better advantage than one standard fastened to its nose only will, but enables its bulb to be removed as occasion may require, or a new one to be substituted. The valve-case supporting-branch projects from the jet-tube, orit and the cup-conduit, in manner as shown, and with them forms the furcatcd standard.

I claim- I 1. In the atomizer, the combination of the drip-cup e and its conduitfwith the jet-tube d and the air-syringe nozzle, all being substantially as described.

2. The combination of the valve case b, nozzle a, jet-pipe d, and branch L, all arranged and for use with the bulb A and vessel 1), substantially as setforth.
