Description: |
Claim:
A steam-engine impermeator, arranged substantially as described, so that as the steam flowing in and out from the steam-pipe or steam-chest with which it is connected becomes condensed, it shall raise the lubricating fluid, and cause it to gradually and regularly feed into the engine with the steam, and also so that the condensing-surface may be varied in the manner heretofore set forth. Also, the arrangement within the impermeator of pipes or openings of different heights, connected with the pipe which conveys the steam into the impermeator and takes the oil or other lubricatinlg matter away, which pipes or openings determine the height at which the lubricating fluid shall stand in the impermeator, and thus time extent of condensing surface and the rapidity of condensation and of feed of the lubricating fluid1. Also, the arrangement of a plug-cock or other similar mechanism, in combination with said pipes or openings, as described above and for the purposes set forth, to wit, the arrangement by which any one of the said pipes or openings may be put in connection with the pipe B, at the will of the operator, so that the steam may be admitted and the lubricating material fed out thereby. Also, the rose, as described, in combination with a lubricator working by condensation, for the purposes described, that is, for the better distribution of the oil furnished by the lubricator, when the same is applied to grease the steam. |
