elevation. The band 32 has openings 36
therethrough corresponding in size and
number with the openings 31 in the shell
A, so that by rotating said band the open-
5 ings 31 and 36 maybe brought in or out of
register as. the case may be. Pivoted to
the band 22 is a depending link 37 having a
long slot 38. The lower end of this link
also has a slot 38a adapted for the passage
10 therethrough of a pin 39 fasten d to the.
band 32. Passing through the slot 38 is
a headed screw 40 threaded into any one
of the threaded apertures 41 in the shell.A.
This screw 40 acts as a fulcrum for tg
15 link 37,.so that as the band 22 is rotaled
the band 32 is likewise turned to either open
or, close the oxygen openings 31 in the shell.
And it will be easily understood that the
extent of the. rotation of the band 32 with
20 respect to the band 22 may be -varied by
entering the fulcrum screw 40 into any one
of the openings 41 and thereby changing the
relative rotation "of the .bands and varying
the extent of uncovering the oxygen open-
25 ings 31. In this manner the driver of a car,
may properly regulate the amount of extra
oxygen admitted in a manner that is sim-
plicity itself.
While herein I have described, and dis-
so. closed the preferred embodiment of my in-
vention, I may make-various alterations and
changes therein, all of which changes are to
be' considered within the scope of my inven-
tion under a broad interpretation of the doc-
35. trine of equivalents..For instance I may
place the closing :diaphragms at the lower
end of the vanes or within the channels at
any point intermediate the length, thereof
as may be desired.
40 It is now to be understood that this in-
vention may be embodied in any. carbureter
now on the market by slightly lengthening
the upper portion A of such device ,and
slightly changing the shape thereof to that
45' shown in the drawing. My invention may-
also be applied as a separate entity by pro-
viding the same with a flange 50 at its lower
end, as seen in Fig. 2, so that the device
may be' bolted between a carbureter and the
50 intake flange of a motor. This construction
will enable the owner of a typical carbureter
to remove the throttle' valve therefrom, and
apply my invention in a manner easily un-
derstood.
55 I have hereinbefore' disclosed the pie-
ferred mode of 'practising my invention.
but I reserve the right to make 'such and any
changes as might occur to one skilled in the
art :to which this invention appertains, or to
so make any and all such alterations as may be
permitted under the doctrine of equivalents.
I claim-
1. An article of the class described in-
cluding a hollow shell having an inlet and
4s outlet,- helical vanes arranged on the inte-rior of said 'shell and having helical pas-
sages between said vanes, and means simul-
taneously closing said passages.
2. An article of the class described in-
eluding a. hollow shell having an inlet and 7e
outlet. helical vanes arranged on the inte-
rior of said shell and having''helical pas-
sages between said, vanes, externally actu-
ated diaphragms in said passages adapted
to regulate the opening through said pas- 75
sages.
3. An article of the class described in-
eluding a hollow shell having an inlet 'and
outlet, of internal means for imparting a
vortical whirl to gases. passing through s0
said shell, and . oscillating diaphragms in
said shell adapted to coact with said first
named means regulating the passage through
said shell of said gases.
4. An article of the class described in- 85
eluding a hollow shell having an inlet and
outlet, of internal means for imparting a
vortical whirl to gases passing through said
shell, and externally and simultaneously ac-
tuated oscillating diaphragms in said shell 90
adapted to coact with said. first' named
means regulating the passage through said
shell of said gases.
5. An article of the class described in-
cluding a hollow shell having an inlet and 95
outlet, helical vanes on the interior of said
shell and helical passages between said
vanes, diaphragms within said shell clos-
ing said passages, and oscillatable means
on the' exterior of said shell connected to 100
said diaphragms.
6. An article 'of the class described in-
eluding a hollow shell having an inlet and
outlet, helical vanes on the interior of .said
shell and .helical passages between said 105
vanes, diaphragms within said shell closing
said passages, and oscillatable !neans on
the exterior' of said shell connected to said
diaphragms, there being openings through
the walls of said shell, an annular oscillat- 110
able .band on said shell adapted to cover
said openings, and means connecting said
oscillatable means and said band to actuate
said band.
7. The combination of a hollow open end- 115
ed shell and openings in the wall thereof,
means within said shell imparting a vor-
tical whirl to gases passing .therethrough,
coacting means estopping the passage of
said gases through said shell, and means co- 120
operating' with said coacting means closing
the openings inthe wall of said shell.
.8. The combination of a hollow open end-
ed shell and openings in the wall thereof,
means within said shell imparting a vor- 125
tical whirl to gases passing therethrough,
coacting means regulating and estopping the
passage of said gases through said shell, and
means coperating with said coacting means
regulating and closing the openings in the 10S
