UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
CHARLES WESTERMAN HARRIS AND HERMANN BUCI'IHOLZ, 0F BEAVER FALLS, PENNSYLVANIA.
GAS-HEATED SAD-IRON.
T all whom it may concern Be it known that we, CHARLES W. HARRIS and I-IERMANN BUCHI-IOLZ, citizens of the United States, residing at Beaver Falls, in the county of Beaver and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Gas- Heated Sad-Iron, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to improvements in gas heated sad irons.
The object of the present invention is to improve the construction of gas heated sad irons and to provide a simple, practical, and efficient sad iron of strong and comparatively inexpensive construction, designed for using either natural or artificial gas as a fuel, and equipped with a burner adapted to distribute the heat evenly to the ends of the sad iron and capable of consuming the fumes and of affording perfect combustion, so that only a minimum amount of gas will be used in heating the sad iron.
A. further object of the invention is to provide a sad iron of this character in which the tubing will be out of the way of the operator, and the outlets for the escape of the products of combustion will be at the outer side of the sad iron, to relieve the operator of such heat.
Viith these and other objects in view the invention consists in the construction and novel combination of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and pointed out in the claims hereto appended, it being understood that various changes in the form, proportion, size and minor details of construction, within the scope of the claims, may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the drawing: Figure 1 is a side elevation of a sad iron constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a central longitudinal sectional view of the same. Fig. 3 is a perspective View of the top plate, inverted to illustrate the arrangement of the burner and the shields. Fig. 4: is a plan view of the sad iron body. Fig. 5 is a detail vertical sectional view illustrating the manner of mounting the burner.
Like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawing.

Application filed March 21, 1914.

Serial No. 826,134.
In the accompanying drawing, in which is illustrated the preferred embodiment of the invention, 1 designates a hollow sad iron body having an interior heating chamber 2, and provided at the outer wall thereof with an upper solid intermediate portion 3, and having spaced upper substantially oblong recesses a located at the ends of the imperforate portion 3- and forming outlets for the products of combustion. The heating chamber is covered by an oppositely tapered top plate 5, conforming to the configuration of the sad iron body, which is also oppositely tapered. While the sad iron is shown oppositely tapered, it may, of course, be constructed of any other desired configuration. The top plate, which is preferably provided at its lower face with a lining 6 of asbestos, to shield the hand of the operator, has a depending marginal flange 7, which fits over the upper edges of the hollow sad iron body. The side and end walls of the heating chamber present concave faces to the depending burner 8, and they merge into the bottom wall, which is also concave. The burner 8, which may be of any suitable construction, is located centrally of the outer side of the sad iron, opposite the imperforate intermediate portion 3, and it is inverted, as clearly shown in Fig. 2 of the drawing, and is adapted to uniformly heat the end portions of the sad iron. Also, by locating the burner below the plane of the outlet openings in the manner shown, all fumes of natural or artificial gas are consumed, and a perfect combustion is obtained. The top of the sad iron is provided opposite the outlet openings with depending oblong flanges 9, arranged in spaced relation with the burner and also with the outlet openings, so as to prevent direct passage of the heat from the burner to the openings. The outlet openings have a slight downward taper, and the depending flanges 9, which are correspondingly tapered, form guards or shields for the burner. The inner side wall of the combustion chamber, which is toward the operator, is imperforate, and the horizontal top plate forms a tight connection with the hollow body at this side of the sad iron.
The inverted burner 8 is fitted on a nipple or sleeve 10, formed integral with the top plate and projecting downwardly from the lower tac tending h the plate and receiving the tnro lower end ot a short tube 12?). The top plate is provided around the opening 11 with a boss, and. the opening is interiorly threaded to enga the lower threaded end of the tube The tube 12, which is constructed of metal, is arranged at an inclination and extends upwardly and outwardly and is prorided at its upper end with means for the attachment of ordinary rubber tubing, Which is thereby arranged entirely out of the Way of the operator.
in the accompanying dra 'ing, the inclined tube 12 is provided With means for mixing air with the as, but as this device loos not constitute a portion of the present invention, a s acific description thereof is deemed unnecessu'y. he top plate is detachably secured on the hollow sad iron body by means of thumb nuts 13, engaging threaded stuns A projecting vertically from the ends of the sad iron body 1. A handle 15, constructed of Wood or other suitable material, connected With' the top plate by an. approxin'iatoly U-shaped frame or men'iber 16, consisting of upwardly extending es and a horizontal bottom connecting portion. The approximately U-shaped trains or member 16 is secured to the top plate by bolts 1'7, spacing nuts or pieces 18 being preferably interposed between the bottom portion of the handle carrying frame or member 1%) and the top plate. The handle extends across the space between the sides of the itrame or member 16, and is suitably secured to the same. The detachable top plate, which carries the burner, aii'lords ready access to the latter, and the thereof at an opening 11, ex-v sad iron is easy to operate and keep in 40 order.
lVhat is claimed is:
l. A sad iron including a hollow body having an impel-iterate inner wall and provided at the outer Wall with an upper intermediate impertorate portion and having spaced outlet openings located at opposite ends of the intermediate portion, a top plate secured to the sad iron body and provided opposite the outlet openings with depending shields, and a centrally arranged lnirnercarried by and depending from the top plate and located near the outer Wall of the body, opposite the said intermediate portion thereof.
2. A sad iron including a hollow body having an imperforate inner wall and provided at the outer Wall with spaced outlets, a top plate secured on the body, a centrally arranged handle carried by the top plate, a burner depending from the top plate and located between the said outlets, and a tube mounted on the top plate at the outer side of the said handle and communicating with the burner, said tube extending upwardly and outwardly at an inclination and adapted to hold a piece of rubber tubing out of the Wa y of the operator.
lln testimony, that We claim the foregoing as our own, We have hereto aflixed our signatures in the presence of two Witnesses.
