GEORGE H. WINANS, OF SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH.
HEAT-REGULATOR FOR CARS.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Gnonon H. W mans, a citizen of the United States, residing at Salt Lake City, in the county of Salt Lake and State of Utah, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Heat-Regulators for Cars, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in heat regulating attachments for Pullman cars, sleeping cars, parlor cars and the like.
One object of my invention is to provide a means for regulating the heat within the cars, without the necessity of shutting oil the supply of heat.
Another object of my invention is to provide a means for covering the heating pipes to prevent the heat from entering the berth; and allowing the heat from the heating pipes to enter the aisle of the car.
Another object of my invention is to pro vide a means for partly uncovering the heating pipes in the berth and thus allowing the heat to escape and enter the berth.
Another object of my invention is to provide a means for preventing the heat from entering the aisle of the car and also pre venting the heat from entering any part of the car.
Another object of my invention is to provide a means for operating the pipe covering. The holes located in the pipe covering allow the heat to escape between the seats when open or in line with each other.
Reference is had to the annexed drawings, forming a part of this specification, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, in which Figure 1 is a side or end view of a berth in a Pullman car, with part of the seat cut away to illustrate my invention. Fig. 2 is a plan view of my invention, showing part of my invention in section, on line ac e" Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a sectional view of the flue through line 00 Fig. 2. Fig. 4; is a plan view of the line, showing it applied to the stationary pipe covering 1. Fig. 5 is a sectional view through line ?)b Fig. 1. Fig. 6 is a front view of the holes 21 and 21 in the pipe covering. Fig. 7 is a cross sectional view through line aa, Fig. 6.
Similar letters and numerals refer to similar parts throughout the several views.
A denotes the side of the car, B the scat within the Pullman car, C the pillow crate Specification of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 692,165.
under the seat, D the tloor of the car, E the heating pipes along the side of the car, F the foot strip running along the side of the car and above the heating pipes.
1 is the stationary pipe covering, which is composed of three sections: the inner plate 2, the outer plate 3, and a sheet of asbestos 1 which is placed between the inner plate 2 and the outer plate 8.
5 is the sliding cover which is composed of three sections: the inner plate 6, the outer plate 7, and a sheet of asbestos S which is placed between the inner plate 6 and the outer plate 7 By this construction the heat is prevented from entering the car when the holes 21 and 21' are closed, the sliding cover 5 being held in its relative position by cleats, forming runways 9, which are secured to the outer plate 3 of the stationary cover 1. The holes 21 and 21' in said covers are for the purpose of allowing the heat to escape into the car when they are in line with each other. The plate 2 and the plate 7 have their edges flanged at 22 and 23 for the purpose of securing the asbestos so that none of it will shake out onto the floor. The flanges 23 also answer as sliders which slide in the runways 9. The surfaces of said flanges are curved with the same degree of curvature as are the surfaces of said runways. This construction forms an easy sliding surface and at the same time holds the sliding cover closely against the stationary cover.
Secured to the stationary cover is a box or flue 12, for the purpose of conducting the heat from the pipes E into the center of the ear; said flue being constructed with an inner box 14 and having a sheet of asbestos 13 placed between the outer box 12 and the inner box 1 1, thus preventing the heat from escaping through the sides of the box. In the end of the box 12 is placed a door 15, which is held closed by a spring 16 when it is desired to keep the heat within the box.
Located on the outer plate 3 of the stationary cover are rollers 17, over which passes a cord 18; said cord has a handle 20 at one end and the other end is secured to the sliding cover at 19. The cord 18 is for the purpose of operating the sliding cover.
In applying my invention to a car, I first place the inner edge of the stationary cover 1 under the flange 11 of the foot plate F and secure the right-angular projection 10 to the floor. I then place the box 12 under the seat and secure it to the stationary cover as Well as to the floor. curing them holds the box and cover firmly 21 in the pipe cover by pulling the sliding plate over to one side as shown in Figs. 1
and 2. I then close the door in the end of the {box 12, thus keeping all of the heat ithin the chamber 25 around the pipes F.
7 When I WiSll to have the heat in the center of the car I open the door 15 in the box 12; this allows the heating of just the aisle, at night when the curtains of the berthsare drawn. the event that I vish heat in the berth and not in the center of the car I close the door 15 and pull on the cord 20; this pulls the sliding cover over to the opposite side and places the holes 21 and 21 in a line With each other thus allowing all of the heat to enter the berth. If I Wish the {heat in the center of the car, as Well as in the berth l open the door 15, which al.- loWs heat to escape into the aisle. Since heat is a-lso escaping through the pipe covers, and
the door 15 is new open, the'heat is escaping throughboth openings and heating the berth and the aisle at the same time.
*When my invention is applied to the halls of a car, or Where there are no seats, I substitute a kno'b in the hole 19 in place of the This manner of secord 18., which is only used When there is a distance between the operator and the pipe covers.
Having thus described my invention, What I claim as new and desire to secureby Letr lPatent i A casing for inclosing heating pipes comprising inner and outer rigid Walls and an intermediate Wall composed of a material of low conductivity, said easing having opening extending throughsai-d w'alis the margin oi one rigid Wall heing hent ahout said intermediate wall into engagement-With the remaining rigid Wall throughout the margin of said opening to enclose the 1nter mediate Wall, and a cower plate slidah'ly mounted on said casing and comprising inn-e-r and outer rigid Walls and a Wall intervening said inner and routerrl gid Walls and composed of a material of flow conductivity,
said cover plate having an opening ext-ending through the avails thereof and adapted to he brought into and out of register with the opening in said casing, the margin of the opening of one of the rigid walls-of said cover plate being hent about said intervening wall 7 and into engagement with the remaining cover Wall, substantially as described.
