ATTURNEYS through the A TENT OFFICE.
BENJAMIN W. KINCAID, OF WILSON, NORTH CAROLINA.
SEPARATOR.
Application filed October 29. 1910.
To (LZZ whom it may concern.'
lie it known that I, BENJAMIN W. KIN- cAiu, a citizen of the United Stati-iwand a resident of Wilson, county ot Wilson, and State of North Carolina, have inadc certain new and useful Improvements in Separatore, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relatesl to improvements in separators and it` is especially designed to be used with automobiles and gasolene engines for the purpose of separating the impurities in the liquid fuel from the fuel itself, thereby leaving the latter pure.
An object of my invention, as slated above, is to provide a device by means of which impurities, such as water, dirt', lscale, etc., may be completely separated :from the tuel Huid,- surh as gasoleue, the said device having means for withdrawing the impuri ties after they are collected.
A further object of luy invention is to provide a novel forni otl dirt separating meanswhieh consists of a receptacle for the dirt, and which may be cleaned by the pres- Vsure of the gasolenc itself.
A further object of my invention is to provide a separator of very simple construction, and of few' parts, and which is, therefore, cheap to manufacture.
Other objects and advantages will appear in the following specification and the novel features of the device will be particularly pointed out in thp appended claims.
My invention 1s ll ustrated in the accompanyingdrawings in 'which- Figure 1 is Y a central vertical section separator and through the main tank, and Fig. v2 is a detail `view showing i the sicvcs in t-hc dirt receptacle.
-otherwise made.
In carrying out my invention, Iprovide a. retainer suchas that shownfat 1' in Fig. 1. lhis'retainer'is of an'elliptical shape insection, as shown in Fig. 1, and may be cast or At the bottom of the retainer is an opening 2, which is controlled by a stop cock 3. At the top of the retainer is an opening 4, which is normally closed by a screw plug 5, but which may be opened to permit the entrance of air. Toward the upper art ofthe receptacle is au outlet pipe6, '.w ich may be controlled by a stop cock 7. This pipe leads to the carburoter.' The dirt receptacle itself consists of a section of pipe 8.- The pipe is provided on 'its upper slde with a series of sieves `9, these sieves being of fine mesh, so as to Specification of Letters Patent.
. The lighter gasolene .bureterthrough the 'and 7 are Patented May 2, 1911. serial No. 589,706.
etieclually prt-vent the dirt from passing passi-d through openings l() and 11, respec tively, and is secured therein by means of the nutsl2 and lJ-. which form parts of the packing' glands l" afd. 13a. )bviously, instead oi using pack nu. glands, the pipe 8 may he soldered. brazctl or otherwlse secured in the walls without departing from the spirit oi' the invention. To the under .side of the pipe 8 is screwed the connecting pipe 14, which leads to the main storage tank l5. A stop cock 1C is provided between the tank and the pipe 14. The end of the pipe 8 is closed by a screw plug 17 as clearly shown in the figures. i
From the foregoing description of the various part` ot' the device, thereof may hc readily understood.
lhen the" apparatus is set up, as described, the .atop cocks 1G and 7 are opened. The fluid will pass down through the pipe i4 and into the pipe 8. water will pass through the sieves 9 which will screen lout the dirt. and the latter, bein heavier, will tend to fall down to the en of the pipe 8 as shown in the figure. The continual passage of the pipe 8; will tend to wash the dirtdown t0- ward the bottom end. The gasolene and water assing through the sieves will now enter .t le interior of the retainer .1 when the water, being heavier, will sink to the bottom.
When it is desired to clean the device the screw plug 17 is removed, when the pressure of the gasolene in theel-:pipe 8 will force out the dirt and will clean e-pipe 8 thoroughly. The plug 17 may then be rep aced.,l The stop cocks 16 and 7 are now closed and the screw plug 5 is opened to admit air. The Stop cock 3' is opene and the contents of the rctalncr are drained. The screw plu 5 and the stop cock 3 are again closed, and t c stop cocks 16 opened, whereupon the gasolene again flows in and immediate use.
In actual practice, it will not be necessary to draip the apparatus very freqpently, be'
theseparator is ready for l the operation The gasolene and gasolene along the will pass on to the carcause it will take some time. to Vtill up with dirt and Water. .It willv be notieed that the dirt can not fall to the bottom and clog up the stock cock 3,`but that the Water is taken 5 out at one-place and the at another.
-I claimzp `1.'The combination with a storage tank for liquids2 of a separator- ,cornprising a retainer ha'ving an outlet opening at its:n top '10 and at its bottom, means for closing the top outlet openingl an inclined pipe arranged to 4pass; throughI the interior of the retainer,v Saidspipe being provided with a series of sieves on its upper side, a screw plug' in the 1-5 loiwer end of the pipe outside 'of the retainer for opening and closing theiend of the pipel a stop cock at the bottom of the 'retainer foinI draining the latter, and a Screw plug carried by said retainer at the top thereof for admitting air.
2. The combination with a storage tank for liquids, of a separator comprising a retainer having an outlet opening at its top and at its bottom, means for closing the top outlet opening, an .inclined pipe arranged to pass through the interior of the retainer, `:said pipe 'being provided with a series of eieve` on its upper side and having means at itslower end for opening or closing the pipe,'meane` for draining the receptacle, and connections between said tank and the upper end oi Said inclined pipe.
