IMPROVEMENT IN COOKING-STOVES.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 108,219, dated October 11, 1870.

To all whom, it ntay concern.-

Be it known that I, LEROY D. WEBBER, of the city of La Porte, in the connty of La Porto and State of Indiana, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Cooking- Stoves; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.

Figure l of the drawings is a representa tion of my improved stove in perspective.

Fig. 2 is a verticallongitndiual section. Fig.

3 is a vertical transverse section.

My invention consistsin extending the horizontal fines of a eookingstove up in front of the oven, arranging them to communicate at the top, and in providing the horizontal fines with an arrangement of plates constituting a double sliding damper, by means of which the direction of the heated products of combustion may be regulated.

In the accompanying drawings, A represents the outer case of the stove.

B is the baking-oven, heated by the circulation of rarefied currents between the walls and the case A.

0 represents a series of fines between the front of the case A and the forward wall of the oven.

l ranged plates connected by a horizontal strip F, to which is attached a rod, G, projecting beyond the front of the stove, and by which the plates are drawn to and fro.

H represents a pair of partitions dividing the lower chamber of the stove into three fines, M. These partitions may be fianged to serve as guides tothe'niovable plates E.

The object of the described improvements is to heat the frontofthe oven as well as the other parts, and it is effectually accomplished by the use of the plates E, which increase or diminish the draft. WVhen drawn forward, these plates createa direct central passage from the back to the front of the stove, through which the heat passes, ascending the side and descending the middle vertical fines.

When the oven is sufficientlyheated, the damper z is turned, cutting off the currents of heated air and products of combustion. In this condition the flue-chamber in front of the oven serves as a dead-air chamber, and prevents the rapid escape of the heat from the oven through its front wall.
