PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Combined Atmospheric Burner and Mantle and Chimney Lifter or
Bearer.
HENRY EDWARD HERRIOT, Secretary, 74, Quay Street, Manchester, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention is a sequel to my former Patent 35548 called "The Incan-
descent Mantle and Chimney bearer," by it I wish to adapt an atmospheric
burner such as are used for incandescent gas lighting to suit and work with
my Patent 35548. In order to do so I make the chimney gallery of these burners
detachable and connect it to my mantle bearer as described in my Patent 3554.
I further propose to lift the mantle from the wire netting or grid and still use
the white mantle rod or crutch now generally in use, or any other loose rod that
may be suitable for the support of mantles when in use. I purpose attaching
the centre socket (into which the rod is inserted to keep it upright) to an outside
collar and band fitting round the top of the burner and made a required length,
(this in itself is a mantle lifter only). Further this band which may be an
addition to the burner, or may be the outside portion of the burner itself, I
purpose to lengthen more or less forming a sleeve to which at its lower end I
attach the gallery which carries the chimney, or the chimney and globe, the
gallery I make detachable so that when I lift the gallery I lift also the sleeve
round the burner, and the socket being secured to the sleeve at the top, rises with
it and lifts the rod and the mantle, and so the contrivance becomes a chimney
and mantle bearer and lifter incorporated with a burner.
I further provide that the connecting rod or rods securing the socket to the
outside sleeve may be above the netting or grid at the top of the burner, on
a level with it, or below it, as I may choose to make them, the grid I construct
so as to leave a space for the passage of the centre socket and its branch or
branches and supports if necessary.

I, HENRY EDWARD HERRIOT, Secretary of the Manchester and Salford Adult
Deaf & Dumb Association, 74, Quay Street, Manchester, do hereby declare the
【Prica 8d l

page_text: 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 is a sequel to my former Patent 355498 called "The Incan-
descent Mantle and Chimney bearer," by it I wish to adapt an atmospheric
burner such as are used for incandescent gas lighting to suit and work with
my Patent 355498.
This invention is a contrivance by which incandescent mantles (such as are
used and sold by the Incandescent Gas Light Company and others) may be
provided with a movable support, which forms a stand for the support of the
mantle when over the burner and also when the mantle is removed from the
burner which can be placed on a table or any flat surface without disturbing or
removing the mantle from its support, whilst the dust is removed from the
grid or wire netting on the top of the burner.
I construct it in the following manner, I attach the central socket of a conical
flat or round shape (into which the loose mantle rod or prop is inserted in order
to keep it upright) by one or more arms to an outside collar or band fitting
round the top of the burner and made a required length (this in itself is a mantle
lifter only). Further this band which may be an addition to the burner or
may be the outside of the burner itself, I purpose to lengthen more or less
forming a sleeve to which at its lower end I attach the gallery which carries the
chimney or chimney and globe. The gallery I make detachable from the burner,
so that when I lift the gallery I lift also the sleeve round the burner, and the
socket being secured to the sleeve at the top, rises with it and lifts the rod and
the mantle and so the contrivance becomes a chimney and mantle bearer and
lifter incorporated with a burner.
I further provide that if desirable the socket for the reception of the mantle
rod may be dispensed with, by making the mantle rod and the connexion with
the band of one piece throughout, or by attaching two or more wires to the
band, and twisting them together in the centre to form a mantle rod, as shown
in my Complete Specification 355498.
I also provide that the connecting arm or arms securing the socket to the
outside sleeve and the socket also, niay be above the netting. or grid at the top of
the burner, on a level with or below it as I may choose to make them, the
grid I construct so as to leave a space for the passage of the centre socket and
its arm or arms or supports when necessary, or without these passages when
not required.
Herewith I send drawings describing the nature and design of my invention

claim is:-

page_text: burners, to facilitate the clearing away the dust, that collects on and about
the burner, and also for the support of such mantles whilst off the burners.
2nd. To adapt an atmospheric burner such as are used for incandescent gas
lighting to suit and work with the said mantle lifter.
3rd. To connect the mantle lifter to the chimney gallery which gallery I make
loose and detachable from the burner.
