SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 662,514, dated November 27, 1900.

Application filed June 22, 1900. Serial No. 21,229. (No model.)

To cal/Z whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, RICHARD WNsoHE, manufacturer, a subject of the German Emperor, residing at Herrnhut, Germany, have invented new and useful Improvements in Carbureters, of which the following is aspecification. t

The present invention relates to anv apparatus for generating gasolene-gas to be employed for the purpose of illumination or heating of calendering-machinesin the process of finishing cloths, or in combination with a soldering-tool, and for similar purposes.

I will now proceed to describe my invention more fully, reference being hadV to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate the invention.

Figure l is a vertical section. Fig. i shows a section on line A B of Fig. l. Fig. 3 illustrates a vertical section through the apparatus on line C D of Fig. 2, and Fig. 4 is a section on line E F oi' Fig. 3.

My improved apparatus consists of the upper reservoir d, which is adapted to be iilled in any suitable and desired manner with liquid hydrocarbon. The hydrocarbon reaches the gas-generator d by way of the pipe c. In the generator d a cylinder e is centrally provided, whioh receives warm Water or steam through the pipe f. The water or condensation-water may be let off through the exhaustpipe g. Externally of the heating-cylinder e and at the inner wallof the generator d rings h h /12 t' are secured horizontally, or almost so, in such a manner that between the outer edges of the rings h h and the inner Wall of ,the generator d, on the one hand, and between the inner edges of the rings t' t' and outer wall of the heating-cylinder e,on the other hand, a space is left which enables the liquid dropped onto the upper ring h from the pipe c to drop onto the ring 7l below it. Above the bottom m the air-pipe 'n terminates in the generator d, through which cold air is forced into the` apparatus and passes through same,circulat ing around the rings tht' hin a direction which is `reverse to the direction of the liquid hydrocarbon in its passage through the apparatus, and the air-current enriched by the contact with the liquid hydrocarbon finally reaches the gas-pipe o, from whence it is led to the place for the consumption of the gas. On its way through the generator d the cold air is saturated with the hydrocarbon and simultaneously heated by virtue of the heat radiated by the cylinder e. Owing to the heat emitted'by the cylinder e a more intimate mixture with the hydrocarbon is attained in addition than would be possible without the provision of said cylinder.

From the lid p of the generator d a pipe r starts upward, entering the reservoir a for the liquid hydrocarbon and terminating in a dome t on the lid s of said reservoir. This tube r conveys gas from the generator d to the space above the surface of the liquid in the reservoir ct in order to prevent the formation of a vacuum by the liquid hydrocarbon leaving the reservoir a.

The apparatus as hereinbefore described is itted with the necessary safety appliances of any suitable kind.

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

Apparatus for generating gasolene-gas comprising in combination a reservoir d for the reception of liquid hydrocarbon, a generator d connected with the hydrocarbon-reservoir by means of a pipe c, said generator containing centrally a cylinder e adapted to be heated by steam or water, a number of droppingrings 7L, t' intermittingly secured to the outer wall of the heating-cylinder e and to the inner wall of the generator d, a gas-pipe r leading from the generator to the space above the level of the liquid hydrocarbon in the reservoir d, an air-admission pipe n at the lower end of the generator and a gas-outlet pipe 0 at the upper end of same, substantially as described and shown.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two subscribing witnesses. this 28th day of May, IS200.
