I SOOT COLLECTOR Filed Dec. 28, 1934 m 9 a a wnwgsszs INVENTOR faza JVewmmz w 2 3 BY M 3.; WWZRNEYS? I Patented Sept. 10, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2 Claims.
This invention relates to a soot collector, and more particularly to an apparatus adapted to receive the gases and products of combustion from the outlet of an incinerator and which will function to collect the soot and foreign particles, a1- lowing only the gases to escape. It is a well known fact, particularly in cities, that the outlets from incinerators and other stacks discharge into the air small particles of soot and foreign matter which are not only injurious from a health standpoint but they greatly disfigure buildings and soil both the inside and the outside of residences and other buildings.
It is the broad purpose of my invention to provide an apparatus preferably located on the roof of a building and operatively connected to a chimney so that all soot and foreign particles may be entrapped, collected and disposed of.
With these and other objects in View, the invention consists in certain novel features of construction and combinations and arrangements of parts, all of which will be more fully hereinafter described and pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawing:
Figure 1 is a view in longitudinal section illustrating my improved soot collector, the View being taken on the staggered line I/ I of Figure 2; and
Figure 2 is a sectional plan view on the staggered line 2/2 of Figure 1.
I represents a casing of my soot collector. This casing may, of course, be of any size and shape desired and wherever necessary a foundation 2 of cement or other suitable material may be located on the roof 3 of the building to support the casing. This casing I has an outlet flue 4 which extends through the top 5 of the casing I and projects above and below the top. A hood 6 is preferably supported at the top of the outlet flue 4 and is connected to said flue by straps 'I.
The casing I has an inlet flue 8 which communicates directly with a chimney or outlet flue 9 to receive the gases and products of combustion from the chimney. This inlet flue 8 communicates with the interior of the casing I at one side of the center thereof, so that the products of combustion entering at one side of the casing are caused to whirl about the lower end of the flue 4 constituting a vortex, so that before the gases escape through the flue 4 the soot and other particles are entrapped and fall by gravity into a tapering hopper I secured in the casing. This hopper III at its lower end has a reduced outlet chute II in which a slide damper I2 is provided.
I3 represents a can or other receptacle located within the casing and disposed below the chute I I to receive the particles falling into the hopper. A cover I is provided for the receptacle I3 and this cover has a collar I receiving the chute II and movable thereon. Some means is desirable to prevent the falling of the cover when the receptacle is removed, and in illustrating this desirable feature I have illustrated a set screw I6 in the col- 5 lar I5 to engage the chute II. The casing I is provided in its wall adjacent its lower portion with a door I! which is normally closed and which may be readily opened to allow the receptacle I3 to be removed, emptied and replaced. 10
It is apparent that with my improved apparatus the gases and other products of combustion from the stack or chimney 9 will enter the flue 8 and whirl within the casing I so that the particles of soot and other foreign matter will fall down into the hopper Ill and the receptacle I3, allowing only the gases to escape through the flue 4.
While I have illustrated what I believe to be the preferred embodiment of my invention, it is to be distinctly understood that various slight changes may be made with regard to the form and arrangement of parts without departing from my invention, and hence I do not limit myself to the precise details set forth but consider myself at liberty to make such changes and alterations as fairly fall within the spirit and scope of the claims.
What I claim is:
1. A device of the character described, including a casing, an outlet flue projecting through the top of the casing and extending through and above the top, an inlet flue communicating with the casing at one side of the center thereof and in alignment with the lower portion of the outlet flue, a hopper below the outlet flue, an outlet chute on the hopper, a damper in said chute, a 5 receptacle below the chute, a cover for the receptacle, said cover having a central collar receiving the chute, and means on the collar for securing the same to the chute the lower portion of said casing constituting a chamber in which the recep- 4o tacle is enclosed.
2. A device of the character described, including a casing, an outlet flue projecting through the top of the casing and extending through and above the top, an inlet flue communicating with the casing at one side of the center thereof and in alignment with the lower portion of the outlet flue, a hopper below the outlet flue, an outlet chute on the hopper, a damper in said chute, a receptable below the chute, and a cover for the 5 receptacle, said cover having a central collar receiving the chute, said casing having a door in its wall adjacent its lower end through which the receptacle can be moved the lower portion of said casing constituting a chamber in which the receptacle is enclosed.
