HENRY G. GLEYRE, OF GLASGOW, MISSOURI.
IMPROVEMENT IN REFRIGERATORS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 167,446, dated September 7, 1875; application filed I July 24, 1875.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HENRY G. GLEYRE, of Glasgow,in the county of Howard and State of Missouri, have invented a new and Improved Refrigerator, of which the following is a specification:
In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 represents a front elevation partly in section to show interior, and Fig. 2 a vertical transverse section on the line 0 0, Fig. 1, of my improved refrigerator.
Similar letters of reference indicate correspondin g parts.
My invention relates to improvements in refrigerators, by which the interior of the same is supplied with cold and pure air, while it is also used as a watercooler.
The invention will first be described in connection with drawing, and then pointed out in the claim.
In the drawing, A represents a refrigerator with double hollow walls, a hinged lid or top B, and hinged front doors. An ice-receptacle, G, is in suitable manner secured to the top section of the refrigerator, and provided with a central extension or water-receptacle, O, to-
vward which the bottom is inclined to convey the melting ice-water thereto. The waterreceptacle is filled with water and kept cool by the drip-water of the ice stored above the same. The cold water is drawn off for use by a front pipe and stop-cock. A drip-pan, D, is arranged below the bottom of the water-receptacle U to take up the condensed moisture or sweat gathering at bottom and walls of the ice and water receptacles. The drip-pan connects by a tube with a suitable vessel at the bottom of the refrigerator-that is, of sufficent size to take up the drip collecting within a certain time. The ice-receptacle G is provided at the upper rear wall with a series of perforations, a, that open into a space, 1), formed between the rear walls of the refrigerator and the ice-receptacle.
The cold air passes through this space down to the main chamber of the refrigerator, and keeps the articles stored therein at a low temperature, together with the additional cooling action of the'bottorn walls of theice and water receptacles O O. The hollow walls of the refrigerator are supplied with cold air through aseries of perforations, d, at about the same height with those of the ice-receptacle, so that the air can readily enter therein and keep the walls cool. The ice-receptacle G closes by an inclined rear flange, e, the top part of the intermediate space b, flange 6, being also perforated with eXit-holcs f for the warm air which enters the refrigerator by the opening of the doors &c. The exit-holes f connect with aperture f of lid B, and convey thus the lighter warm air to the outside. A bottom flange, g, of the lid near the exit-holes laps on the rear wall of the ice-receptacle, and prevents the entrance of hot air from above as the cold air passes out of the receptacle, and creates an upward current of warmer air. A cold and pure air circulates in this manner continually in the refrigerator, so that the articles stored therein are kept in a nice and cool state, as well as the water which is drawn off in the same manner as from a water-cooler.
Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The combination of iccreceptacle, having inclined perforated rear flange, and forming. with rear walls, an intermediate ventilatingflue, with a perforated cover, having a pendent flange that cuts ofi direct air communication between ice-receptacle and ventilating-outlet for the passage of air outside of the refrigerator, all as and for the purpose specified.
