Electric Igniter for Explosive Engines
|
William G. Stolz |
Brooklyn, Kings County, NY |
Abstract:
The present invention has reference to that class of devices used as an attachment to explosive-engines for the purpose of exploding the gas in the cylinder by means of an electric spark; and the object thereof is to materially improve the attachment, whereby a more perfect and certain action is secured in producing the spark.
Claim:
In an electric igniter, a suitable insulating-disk, an insulating-wheel, a conductive ring with cam connected to the wheel, suitable brushes operating in connection therewith and a pin or contact device in circuit with theigniter and brushes and located in the path of one of said brushes so as to form the circuit should either or both of the brushes fail to act, substantially as and for the purpose set-forth. |

Igniter or Circuit Breaker
|
William G. Stolz |
Brooklyn, Kings County, NY |
Abstract:
The present invention has reference to that class of electric igniting devices or circuit- breakers applied to explosive engines or motors; and the object thereof is to materially improve and simplify the operating mechanism, whereby two cylinders may be ignited with a single vibrating device, thus dispensing with the usual vibrating device on the primary induction-coil.
Claim:
In an igniting device, a contact point or points, a circuit-closer, and a rotatable wheel or disk having two corrugated or serrated surfaces extending respectively on a plane above and below the plane of the periphery of the wheel or disk, and means upon the circuit-closer to operate in Convection with the corrugated or serrated bearing-surfaces. |

Valve Gear for Explosive Engines
|
William G. Stolz |
Brooklyn, Kings County, NY |
Abstract:
The present invention has relation to that class of valve-gear for explosive-engines in which the inlet-valve and the outlet-valve are arranged in line with each other. The object thereof is to provide means whereby the inlet-valve may be forced from its seat and opened to supply gas to the engine-cylinder should the valve from any cause fail to act, attained by the mechanism.
Claim:
In an explosive-engine, a suction inlet-valve and a supplemental device for operating said valve should it fail to operate by suction, said device comprising a spring-actuated plunger-rod arranged to strike the valve-rod, a pivoted lever arranged to strike the plunger-rod, and suitable means for operating the lever. |
