Application med November 19, 1921. serial No. 516,460.'

To all rwhom it may concern# Be it known that I, J umUs Bii'oii'nsAcHnn, a citizen of the United States, residing at Los Angeles, county of Los Angeles, and' State of California, have invented a. certain new and useful Pilot-Light Burner, of which the following` is a specification.

Thisinvention relates to a gas burner and has especial reference to a pilot`light for useI `inconnection particularly with Water heaters having a therinostatic control.

One of the objects of this invention is to provide a cheap and easily constructed gas burning appliance in which the fla-ine used in a pilot light is prevented from be-ing extinguished by winds or sudden currents of air. This and other objects is accomplished by the device shown in preferred form in the which, when burning, enc-irc es the bar.v

drawing, in which,

Fig. 1 is a perspective view.

Fig. 2 is a vertical section..`

Fig. 3. is a plan view.

Fig. 4 is a Iplan view of a modified forni of as divider, andv 14 ig. 5 is an elevation of another modi-fied form of gas divider. n

The invention consist'sijof a xpipe 1, 'arranged to be connected with a gas supply pipe and having any common means therein for controlling the quantity of gas necessary for a pilot flame.

Neal' the to i, the pipe 1 is provided with a shoulder 2, orniing aseatfor a gas dividing moans 3, shaped and constructed to fit snugly and loosely in the end of the pipe 1 und to pro-vide passageways for the gas. For this purpose, the gas dividing means may vbe made of av sq'uare bar of any suitable material, preferably soap-stone, which is fitted into the end of a round stand pipe l` the spaces between the plane surfaces of the pipe forming passagewa s 4 for the "as,

y of the pipe 1.

flame is 'thereby insured against extinguishinent by drafts and air currents through at least two divisions or surfaces of the bar, which deflect the currents of air from opposite divisions or surfaces.

In Fig. 4, I have illustrated a slightly changed form of bar or gas divider. lt-conslsts of a round bar 5, arranged to lit snugly 'in the end' of the pipe 1, and provided with longitudinal grooves 6, forming suhstantially pockets in whichthe llame burns.

In Fig. 5 another modified forni is shown. It consists of a bar 7, either round or square, provided with grooves 8 which extend from one end to approximately the middle of the bar, which is insert-ed and held-in thciend of the pipe 1, in such manner that but part ot' the grooves 8 thereof What I claim, is;

1. A pilot light burner comprising a gas supply pipe and aber in the/end of said pipe formed to provide passageways for the 2. A lpilot light burner coin rising a gas supply pipe and a bar in the en of said pipe ofi-operating with said pipe t0 form passageways for the was.

3. A pilot light. burner comprising a gas supply pipe and a har fitting in the end of said pipe and' providing passageways for the gas.

4. A" pilot light burner comprising a gas supeply pipe and uKY square har of soap-stone fitting in the end of and extending beyond said pipe. Y

- 5. A pilot light burner comprising a gas supply pipe having an internal shoulder. and a square har loosely `restin` on the shoulder of, andextending beyond the end ol', said pipe.

In testimony whereof I have set in v hand.
