(under the class definition) Devices for introducing water to boilers and controlling the introduction not otherwise provided for. Those devices that are of general application for feeding water to tanks, either open or closed, whether a boiler be disclosed or claimed in a general way, are not classified in class 122 at all, but are placed in classes that will be noted below.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
1+, for boiler plants having a boiler feeder in combination.
11, where the movement of the boiler is combined with the feeding of water.
40, and 41, for boilers of the flasher type having special means for introducing water into the boiler combined
therewith.
365, 428 and 444, for devices disclosing feed introducing apparatus for water tube boilers. 366, for absorbent wicks for feeding water from one portion of the boiler to another.
396, for combined cleaning, heating, and feeding devices.
398, and 403, for combined purifiers, circulators, heaters and feed introduction.
406, for feed introduction combined with circulation.
414, for injecting water into a circuit taking water from the boiler.
415, for boilers having a circuit communicating with the boiler and provided with a pump for withdrawing water from the water level in the boiler, introducing feed water, mixing it with the boiler water in the circuit, and maintaining the water level.
417, 435, 436, and 438, for devices for introducing water into the steam space.
431, and 433, for feed water conduits provided with traps and filters.
446, for combinations of fuel and water feeders.
446, through 449, under Regulation, Fuel and Water, Automatic control for automatic control of both fuel and water to the boiler.
447, for feeders with automatic cut-off for the fluid fuel upon the occurrence of an abnormal water level.
450, where the feed is governed by the movement of the boiler itself. 452, for art in this class where the feed is controlled by the pressure inside the boiler.
495, when water is fed upon the crown sheet.
