page_text: An Improved Atomizing Device for Petroleum and other Motors..
I, LEON PHILIPPOT, of 34, Rue du Parc, Ivry (Seine), in the Republic of France,
Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
My invention relates to a system of automatic atomizing injector specially
combined for the introduction of petroleum or oil during the suction period either
into the vaporizer of a motor using ordinary petroleum or directly into the cylinder
or into the air suction pipe of a motor using mineral oil.
In the accompanying drawing this device is represented in section.
This automatic atomizing injector is composed of three essential parts, which are:
. (1) The petroleum chamber A.
(2) The casing B serving as an air chamber and connected with the chamber A.
(3) A double valve formed of two concentric valves connected together and adapted
to slide in the petroleum chamber.
It is fitted by means of the part-D by any suitable mode of union, upon the
vaporizer of the motor using ordinary petroleum, or upon the cylinder or the air
suction pipe in the case of a motor using mineral oil. The petroleum chamber is
furnished with several small orifices o setting the base of the valve E in
communication with the air chamber.
This air chamber has an orifice o for the admission of the air, such orifice being
adapted to be opened or closed according to the passage of the air.
The part R of the air chamber closes the large opening of the petroleum
chamber.
To this part R is applied a cock serving for the regulation of the outflow of the
petroleum from the chamber A.
A helical spring S moves back the double valve, in order that the part E may
prevent the communication of the air and of the petroleum with the vaporizer or the
interior of the cylinder during the periods when this communication is to cease.
In the normal position there is a space T between the double valve and the
petroleum chamber.
This atomizing injector operates in the following manner:
The chamber A is always filled with petroleum or oil coming from a distinct and
entirely separate reservoir.
At each commencement of the suction of the motor the double valve opens and
uncovers the base of the valve E and also the small orifices o which terminate
thereon and before the space T is closed by the effect of the slight pressure which
exists in the petroleum chamber and aided by the movement of the valve rod, a
small quantity of petroleum or oil flows along two or more small flat parts provided
on the valve rod and passes upon the base of the valvé E.
Air passing through the small orifices o carries away this petroleum, at the same
time as it atomizes the same, into the vaporizer or into the part of the motor to
which the atomizing injector has been applied.

page_text: The positions of the valves E and F, that is to say the opening of the base of the
valve E and the closing of the space T, continue the same during the entire
remainder of the suction period.
In all the periods other than the suction period the double valve remains closed
by reason of the action of the spring S.
For the arrival of petroleum or oil at the base of the valve E I may provide, in
lieu of small flat parts on the valve rods, longitudinal cavities either upon this rod
or in the petroleum chamber where this rod is fitted to slide; or one or more sinall
pipes setting the base of the valve F in communication with the base of the
valve E, as indicated by dotted lines in the accompanying drawing.
In certain cases the introduction of petroleum, instead of being partial, may also
take place during the entire duration of the suction, by providing one or more
cavities upon the base of the valve F or also upon this valve, and through which the
petroleum or oil may flow out.

I, LEON PHILIPPOT, of 34 Rue du Parc, Ivry, (Seine) in the Republic of France,
Engineer, 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 :—
My invention relates to a system of automatic atomizing injector specially combined
for the introduction of petroleum or oil during the suction period either into the
vaporizer of a motor using ordinary petroleum or directly into the cylinder or into the
air suction of a motor using mineral essence, which is a product resulting from
the purification and distillation of petroleum.
In the drawing left with my provisional specification this device is represented in
section.
This automatic atomizing ejector is composed of three essential parts, which are:-
1. The petroleum chamber A.
2. The casing B serving as an air chamber and connected with the chamber A.
3. A double valve formed of two concentric valves connected together and adapted
to slide in the petroleum chamber.
It is fitted by means of the part D by any suitable mode of union, upon the vapor-
izer of the motor using ordinary petroleum, or upon the cylinder or the air suction
pipe in the case of a motor using mineral essence. The petroleum chamber is
furnished with several small orifices o setting the base of the valve E in communication
with the air chamber.
This air chamber has an orifice O for the admission of the air, such orifice being
adapted to be opened or closed in any suitable manner according to the passage of
the air.
The part R of the air chamber closes the large opening of the petroleum chamber.
To this part R is applied a. cock (not shown) serving for the regulation of the
outflow of the petroleum from the chamber A.
A helical spring S moves back the double valve, in order that the part E may
prevent the communication of the air and of the petroleum with the vaporizer or the
nterior of the cylinder during the periods when this communication is to cease.

page_text: In the normal position there is a space T between the double valve and the
petroleum chamber.
This atomizing injector operates in the following manner :-
The chamber A is always filled with petroleum or oil coming from a distinct and
entirely separate reservoir.
At each commencement of the suction of the motor the double valve opens and
uncovers the base of the valve E and also the small orifices o which terminate thereon
and before the space T is closed by the effect of the slight pressure which exists
in the petroleum chamber and aided by the movement of the valve rod, a small
quantity of petroleum or essence flows along two or more small flat parts provided on
the valve rod and passes upon the base of the valve E.
Air passing through the small orifices o carries away the petroleum, at the same
time as it atomizes the same, into the vaporizer or into the part of the motor to which
the atomizing injector has been applied.
The positions of the valves E and F, that is to say the opening of the base of the
valve E and the closing of the space T, continue the same during the entire remainder
of the suction period.
In all the periods other than the suction period the double valve remains closed by
reason of the action of the spring S.
For the arrival of petroleum or essence at the base of the valve E I may provide,
in lieu of small flat parts on the valve rod, longitudinal cavities either upon the rod
or in the petroleum chamber where this rod is fitted to slide; or one or more small
pipes setting the base of the valve F in communication with the base of the valve E,
as indicated by dotted lines in the drawing.
In certain cases the introduction of petroleum, instead of being partial, may also
take place during the entire duration of the suction, by providing one or more
cavities upon the base of the valve F or also upon this valve, and through which the
petroleum or essence may flow out.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is:
The hereindescribed system of atomizing injector presenting as essential features
the introduction of petroleum or any other inflammable liquid, during the suction
period, through two valves operating together and introducing the atomized petroleum
or essence into a motor, one intercepting either totally or partially the passage of
the petroleum or essence, and the other valve uncovering its base upon which
terminate one or more small orifices through which air passes, carrying away and
atomizing the petroleum or essence which also arrive upon this base, with the option
of modifying if necessary the various details of construction as regards the forms,
materials and dimensions.
