LUMINoUs ELECTRIC HEATER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 19, 1914.
-State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Lumlnous Electric Heaters, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
The invention relates to luminous electric heaters of that type in which the luminous heating element is inclosed in the glass bulb and is detachably engaged with a socket.
It is the object of the invention to obtain a construction which may be employed as a substitute for a fire-place and is adapted where desired, to be set into the wall of a room.
It is a further object to provide means for varying the heating efl'ect, further tojprovide effective heating insulation for the cas ing and to guard the terminals from over heating, and further to provide various features of construction as hereinafter set forth.
In the drawingsFigure 1 is a perspective view of the heater detached; Fig. 2 is a Vertical central section of the heater as mounted in the wall; Fig. 3 is a diagram sh wing the arrangement of the electric circuits.
A is a casing adapted to be mounted in the wall to form a niche in which the luminous heating elements are placed. This cas-- ing is preferably of the form of an ordinary fireplace and is preferably provided with a reflecting lining B.
C are sockets mounted in the lower part -of the casing A and preferably below the bottom D of the lining B, being in registration with apertures therethrough.
E are the luminous heating elements having threaded terminal contacts I at their lower ends for engaging the sockets C through the apertures in the lining and pro jecting upward into the niche.
To protect the sockets C from, over heating they are arranged in a chamber G having an open work front H which permits free access of air thereto. This chamber G also communicates at its ends and at the -rear. with an air space N between thelining B and the outer wall of the case, while at the upperv end of the case apertures I are ed for the escape of the heated air.
There is also preferably arranged a layer ofheat insulating material J between he llnlng B and the air space. Thus when in operation cool air is constantly entering the chamber G and passing about the sockets G into the wall air space, and the heated air rlsmg in the space betweenthe lining and outer wall will be discharged through the apertures I.
It is desirable to provide means for regulating the amount of heat generated and for this purpose a plurality of heating units .are preferably arranged within the niche and a controlling switch is provided. To malntain a symmetrical appearance when less than the full number of units are in servlce, I have preferably arranged the latter with a central unit and the other units symmetricallyarranged upon opposite sides thereof. The electric circuits are also arranged to becontrolled by thelswitch K so that when only one unit is in circuit the central member is used, where two units are in service the central unit is cut-out and the two symmetrically arranged on opposite sides thereof are thrown into circuit, and in the same manner. a symmetrical appearance is maintained with each added unit until all are in service. The controlling switch K is preferably mounted centrally in front of the chamber G.
What I claim as myinvention is:
- An electric heater, comprising a casing having an open niche therein, a reflecting air chamber having a discharge opening adjacent the top thereof and a layer of heat insulating material interposed between {he lining and the casing at the back of the at-ter.
In testimony whereof I affix my signa- I ture in presence of two witnesses. i
