PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Deodourizing or similar Spray Producers.
We, HERBERT STONE, of Bracebridge Street Works, Bracebridge Street, in
the City of Birmingham, Manufacturer, and WALTER WHITE, of 9, Wilson Road,
Birchfields, Handsworth, in the County of Stafford, Manager, do hereby declare
the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to improvements in spray producers, which are used
chiefly for deodourizing purposes, but which may be used for other similar
purposes.
As is well known the general construction of these articles consists of a vessel
containing the liquid, and an air pump. From the interior of the vessel is
a discharge pipe which is carried to the nozzle end of the pump, so that the
outlet orifices of the pump and of the pipe lie near each other, and surmounted
by a nozzle which is common to both. Hence, as the air is forced through
the nozzle the liquid is carried with it.
It is in reference to the air orifice that this invention has been made, and
its object is to provide a simple and yet effective combination and arrangement
in which the air outlet can be adjustably regulated at will.
In carrying out this invention, the nozzle end of the pump is made with the
air outlet and the liquid outlet lying side by side and delivering themselves
into a common nozzle chamber. The air supply pipe is preferably made of
comparatively large dimensions, and reduced again at the nozzle end. Through
this enlarged air supply pipe is carried the liquid discharge pipe. This large
air supply pipe serves as an air cushion in the pump action. The adjustable
controlling of the air outlet is now effected by means of a screw pin passing
from the exterior, its inner end passing into the said air passage, so that by
the adjustably screwing in or out of the said pin, the air passage may variably
be opened or closed. An enlarged head is provided upon the screw by which
it may be manipulated.
With such an arrangement of controlling adjustability of the air outlet it
will be seen that the final nozzle may be made removable, so that from time to
time it may be removed for cleaning &c. purposes, and replaced without any
regard to adjustability of position, as is required at present.
Again. The general combination and arrangement of this invention consists
in making the upper part of the vessel with a screw connection into which a
fitting is screwed which carries from its one side the pump, and from the other
side, the air pipe, and the liquid discharge pipe with nozzle &c., in such a
manner as to practically balance one with the other, and by reason of providing
the vessel with a flat bottom, the same forms a convenient stand to the whole.
Dated this 1st day of August 1899.

We, HERBERT STONE, of Bracebridge Street Works, Bracebridge Street, in
the City of Birmingham, Manufacturer, and WALTER WHITE, of 9, Wilson Road,
Birchfields, Handsworth, in the County of Stafford, Manager, 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:―
This invention relates to improvements in spray producers, which are used
chiefly for deodourizing purposes, but which may be used for other similar
purposes.
As is well known the general construction of these articles consists of a vessel
containing the liquid, and an air pump. From the interior of the vessel is
a discharge pipe which is carried to the nozzle end of the pump, so that the
outlet orifices of the pump and of the pipe lie near each other, and surmounted
by a nozzle which is common to both. Hence, as the air is forced through
the nozzle the liquid is carried with it.
It is in reference to the air orifice that this invention has been made, and
its object is to provide a simple and yet effective combination and arrangement
in which the air outlet can be adjustably regulated at will.
In order to more particularly explain this our invention we have appended
hereunto an illustrative drawing upon which are figures and numbers of refer-
ence, and in which:-
:-
Fig. 1, is a view in elevation of the invention.
Fig. 2, is a sectional view in elevation.
Fig. 3, is a cross sectional view in elevation on line A-B.
5, is the air pump. 6, is the air supply pipe. 7, is the vessel for liquid.
8, is the liquid discharge pipe. 9, is the air outlet. 10, is the final nozzle.
In carrying out this invention, the nozzle end of the pump is made with the
air outlet 9, and the liquid outlet 8 lying side by side and delivering them-
selves into a common nozzle chamber 11. The air supply pipe 6, is preferably
made of comparatively large dimensions, and reduced again at 9. Through
This large
this enlarged air supply pipe is carried the liquid discharge pipe 8.
air supply pipe serves as an air cushion to the pump action. The adjustable
controlling of the air outlet 9, is now effected by means of a screw pin 12, pass-
ing from the exterior, its inner end passing into the said air passage 9, so that
by adjustably screwing the said pin in or out, the air passage may variably be
opened or closed. An enlarged head is provided upon the screw by which it
may be manipulated.
With such an arrangement of controlling the air outlet it will be seen that
the final nozzle 10, may be made removable, so that from time to time it may
be removed for cleaning &c. purposes, and replaced without any regard to adjust-
ability of position, as is required in those of present make.
It will be seen that when a strong air pressure is attained, the discharge will
take place as long as the pressure is sufficient, which may be longer than re-
quired, and in order to stop discharge the air vent 14, may be depressed and
the pressure disposed of.
Again. The general combination and arrangement of this invention consists
in making the upper part of the vessel 7, with a screw connection into which
a fitting 13, is screwed which carries from its one side the pump 5, and from
the other side the air pipe 6, and the liquid discharge pipe with nozzle &c., in
such a manner as to practically balance one with the other, and by reason of

page_text: providing the vessel with a flat bottom, the same forms a convenient stand to
the whole.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this our
said invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare
that what we claim is:-
1. In deodourizers or similar spray producers having combined air and liquid
outlets, adjustably controlling the air discharge passage independently of the
final nozzle, substantially as set forth and shown.
2. The arrangement and employment of the spray producing chamber 11,
into which the discharged air and liquid are delivered and combined prior to
their final discharge, as set forth and shown.
3. The general arrangement and combination in a deodourizer or similar
spray producer of carrying the air pump, combined air and liquid discharge
pipe, mounted upon the vessel 7, forming a stand to the whole, substantially
as set forth and shown upon the drawings.
