GAS HEATED SAD IRON.
APPLIOATION'IILED H1125, 1913.

srars GAS-HEATED SAID-IRON.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, GEORGE W. LA Run, a citizen of the United States, residing at Kansas City, in the county of Jackson and State of Missouri, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in GasHeated Sad-Irons, of which the following is a speci fication.
My invention relates to improvements in gas heated sad irons.
One object of my invention is to provide a sad iron which will have its bottom uniformly heated and in which the toe or forward end of the iron will be efficiently heated.
Other features of my invention are here inafter fully described and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings which illustrate my invention, Figure 1 is a central vertical sectional view. Fig. 2 is a cross section. Fig. 3 is a rear elevation. Fig. 4 is a longitudinal sectional view of the valve casing and portions of the parts connected therewith. Fig. 5 in an enlarged cross section on the line 0 d of Fig. 4. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the sad iron stand.
Similar characters of reference designate similar parts in the different views.
1 designates the body which is hollow and of the usual form its rear end having an opening in which is fitted a closure 2 having a transverse flange 3 adapted to fit in a groove provided therefor in the body at the lower side of the rear opening.
In the body 1 is located an inverted U shaped guard 4 having its side arms disposed parallel with but spaced apart from the sides of the body. The guard 4 has a forwardly and downwardly inclined top which preferably, extends forward of the sides of the guard, as shown in Fig. 1. The purpose of downwardly and forwardly inclining the top of the guard 4 is to throw the heat of the flame of the burner against the bottom of the iron and toward the toe, so that the bottom and toe will be efiiciently and evenly heated.
A vertical screw 5 extending through the top of the body 1 has its lower end resting in a recess provided therefor in the top of the guard 4. This screw holds the guard in place. The recess or depression is preferably conical as is the lower end of the screw 5. This construction permits the guard 4 to be slipped into approximately the proper Specification of Letters Patent.

position. Then by tightening the screw 5, theguard is forced to and held in the proper position.
The body 1 has mounted in its top portiona vertical screw 6 adapted to rest in a recess in the upper side of the closure 2 for holding the closure in the closed position. The closure is hollow and is provided at its inner side with a burner portion extending forwardly and downwardly and denoted by T. The forward end of the burner portion 7 is covered by a screen 8 held in place by a collar 9 mounted on the burner portion.
The rear side of the closure 2 is provided with a hole in which is mounted a tubular stem 10 having lateral openings 11 for admitting air. A longitudinally slidalble sleeve 12 is mounted on the stem 10 and is adapted to more or less cover the openings 11. In the sleeve is a slot 13 through which extends a clamping screw 14 which is fitted in a screw threaded hole in the stem 10, the head of the screw being adapted to bear against the sleeve.
Discharging into the stem 10 is a valve casing 15 having a conical discharge opening in which is adapted to extend the conical end of a valve 16 which is moved away from the discharge hole by a coil spring 17 and is moved into the closed position by an adjusting screw 19 which extends laterally through and is fitted in a screw threaded hole in the casing 15. The conical portion of the valve 16 has a flat portion 20, shown in Fig. 5 which, when the valve is closed, permits gas to pass through the opening, thereby permitting the burner to burn low when the valve is closed.
21 is the sad iron stand, preferably formed of sheet metal with side flanges 22 ext-ending upwardly. The legs are formed by punching out tongues 23 from the metal and turning them downwardly.
In the operation of my invention the valve 16 is opened by turning the screw 19 so as to .permit the spring 17 to act. The gas passing through the stem 10 mixes with the air entering through the openings 11, the mixture, being ignited, being discharged through the guard 4 the inclined top of which directs the flame against the bottom of the body 1. The products of combustion escape through the openings 24 which are provided in the sides of the body 1, preferably above the guard 4. The sides of the closure 2 may be provided with auxiliary air inlets com- Iatented Apr. 14, 1914.
prising grooves 25. The body 1 has secured to it the usual handle 26. As shown in Fig. 1, the handle 26 has a portion extending over and close to the screw 5. This prevents the screw from becoming detached from the guard 4: by jarring due to continued use.
I do not limit my invention to the structure shown and described, as modifications, within the scope of the appended claims may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patcut, is r 1. In a gas heated sad iron, a hollow body having side openings, an inverted U shaped guard located in said body with the side arms disposed longitudinally upon the upper side of the bottom of the body and forming therewith a channel completely closed at its sides, a space being provided between each arm and the sides of the body and the top of the guard being provided at its forward end with a forwardly and downwardly extending deflector, and a burner arranged to discharge into the read end of said guard.
2. In a gas heated sad iron, a hollow body 3. In a gas heated sad iron,a hollow body having side openings, an inverted U shaped guard located in the body with its side arms disposed longitudinally and spaced apartfrom the sides of the body, the lower edges of the side arms resting their full length upon the upper side of the bottom of the body, the guard having a forwardly and downwardly inclined top which extends beyond the sides of the guard, and a burner located so as to discharge into the rear end of the guard.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
