PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION,
Improvements in Atmospheric Gas Burners.
ARDEN HILL Gas Engineer 14 Constitution Hill Birmingham do hereby declare
the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
In carrying out my invention I arrange a mixing chamber with inlet for the gas
and air to enter in the ordinary manner. To this mixing chamber at suitable positions
I secure a number of taper tubes open at either end. I fix these so that the small
ends of taper tubes are inserted into the mixing chamber about of an inch so that
the mixed gas and air in the chamber freely enters the small ends of taper tubes and
rising up them issues and is burnt at the larger ends of tubes.
2nd. When making atmospheric burners in cast iron-I cast one half of burner
first which half has a flange grooved edge or lip and I then cast the second half of
burner on to the first half in such a manner that on cooling it contracts and securely
joints itself and makes complete burner.

Improvements in Atmospheric Gas Burners.
ARDEN HILL Gas Engineer 14, 16 & 18 Constitution Hill Birmingham Warwick-
shire do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the
same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the
following statement :-
1. In carrying out my invention I arrange a mixing chamber with inlet for the gas
and air to enter in the ordinary manner. To this mixing chamber at suitable positions
I fix a number of taper tubes open at either end. I fix these so that the small ends
of taper tubes are inserted into the mixing chamber of an inch so that the mixed
gas and air freely enters the smaller ends of taper tubes and rising up them issues
and is burnt at the larger end of taper tubes.
2. When making atinospheric gas burners in cast iron I cast one half or part of
burner first with a flange, grooved edge, or lip and cast the second part of burner
into the first part, when on cooling it contracts and securely joints itself.
Referring to drawings annexed Fig. 1 A is the upper part of a burner with
section showing C. C. taper tubes attached to B B mixing chamber. D is the lower part
of burner. E opening for admission of gas jet and air. F complete burner show-
ing the one portion of burner cast and shrunk on to the other.
Fig. 2 is another form of burner. A upper portion of same. C. C. taper holes
drilled corresponding to taper tubes. B B mixing chamber. D lower half of burner.
E gas inlet. F air inlet. G complete burner showing one part of burner cast and
shrunk on to the other.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said Inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is
1st. The use of taper tubes in connection with mixing chamber as described the
gas being burnt from large end of taper tube.
2nd. The casting of one part of atmospheric burner first and then casting and
shrinking the remaining part of burner on to the first as described.
Dated this 6th day of June 1889.
