Our Invention further consists in an apparatus by the use of which we propose to make an ordinary candle burn so slowly as to permit its use as a night light. We purpose placing on the apparatus above-described, a dome shaped cap made of wire gauze, strengthened and kept circular by a ring at bottom, and having an orifice formed by a ring at top, for the passage of the wick of the candle, this orifice will be of less diameter than that of the conical cap upon the shoulder of which the lower ring of the dome will rest in its entire circumference, and so as to leave a certain space between the conical cap and the wire gauze, in order that air may circulate through this latter, and keep the whole cool, and that the ring forming orifice at top of dome may further isolate the flame from the candle and lessen the capillary attraction in the wick.",GB186401607A,0 | |

Another object of this invention is to have a governor comprising a series of electro-magnets constantly energized by the current from the dynamo, and an armature common to all of said magnets, and cooperating with the same, so as to increase or decrease the voltage or electro-motive force of the current with each change in the line circuit. A further object is to have a governor comprising a series of electro-magnets constantly energized by the dynamo current, and an armature common to all of said magnets, one of which organisms is normally stationary but rotable, and the other continuously rotating, whereby with every change in the line circuit producing a corresponding change in the magnetism of said magnets, the normally stationary organism will be influenced to partially rotate by the continuously rotating organism, thus instantly operating to produce a corresponding change in the voltage or electro-motive force of the dynamo current. A still further object is to have the governor of such character that it may be readily adjusted to any initial current and so sensitive as to be instantly operated by any change in the initial current, to change the voltage or electro-motive force of the current to compensate for the variation in the initial current, whereby a constant and uniform current is produced, notwithstanding, but on the contrary, corresponding with changes in the initial current.",GB189116080A,0 | |
