Letters Patent No. 114,336, dated May 2, 1871.
IMPROVEMENT IN COOKING-STOVES AND RANGES.
The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.
Be it known that I, J ons S. PEGKHAM, of Utica, in the county of Oneida and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stoves and Ranges, of which the following is a specitication.
The ii'rst part of my invention relates to a front ireeplate for a stove or range, made in sections, each of such shape as to fit together tightly, and, when so fitted, secured in place by certain devices in such a manner that a fire-plate of such construction is very durable and is a very efficient radiator of heat.
The second part ot' my invention relates to the combination with a stove ofthe aforementioned fire-plate, and also of a folding shelf containing drauglit-registers, in such a manner that when the folding shelf is unfolded it can be used as a platewarmer or toaster, and thc fire-plate can be used as a sad-iron heater and the like; and when the folding shelf is folded up and its drauglit-registers opened, the ordinary registers near the bottom ofthe stove being slint, the fire-plate then performs the ofiicc of heating the air which afterward feeds the fire of the stove, thus materially aiding coinbustion and economizing heat.
Description of Accompanying Drawing.
Figure l is a view of a stove front, and of the sectional fire-plate fitted therein, and the folding shelf and the ordinary draught-registers of a stove, as arranged for'use.
Figure 2 is a transverse section through the center of tig. 1, except that in fig. 1 the folding shelf is opened down, while in this figure the shelf is folded up tothe nre-plate.
Figure 3 shows in perspective the front, back, and sides ofa section of the fire-plate.
Figure 4 is a longitudinal section of my fire-plate, made across the sections at the rod which binds such sections together, and showing` how each section is tted and united to its adjacent section.
Gene/ral Description..
A is the front of a stove.
B are the sections of the fire-plate. These sections are serrated on that side which forms a portion of the inside of thc fire-box, as shown in g. 3 and in section in iig. 2. The front or outer part of this section is shaped as shown in the left-hand section of fig. 3, having .three transverse projecting flanges extending forward, one from the top, a second from the middle, and a third froin the bottoni of said section.
Along that side. of the section wliicliis on the right ofthe left-hand ligure of iig. 3 and on the left of the right-hand figure of iig. 3 is a Harige, through whose side is a hole to allow the entrance ofthe connecting.-
rod. This ange strengthens the section as well as affords a foothold for the connecting-rod.
Throughout the entire length of that part of the ange which is adjacent to its section runs a groove or channel, into which ts a bead of the adjacent section. This bead is located on'eacli section on that side which is opposite to the flange and groove. How said beads tit into said grooves is shown in section in fie. 4.
Whether iiange X be on the right or left side of a section is immaterial to this my improvement. It is, however, convenient to have these flanges on the'cor-l responding sides of the sections, and when the flanges are thus placed the Whole sectional plate weai's a more symmetrical appearance.
It is also immaterial to the successful working of my improvement whether the beads are on the right or on the left side ofea'cii section, or the grooves are on the right or left side, so long as the sections are so formed that the beads of the sections fit into the grooves in their adjacent sections. To secure these Sectionsin place when fitted together a connecting-rod or binder, O, is passed through the hole in the flange Xof each section, and the sections are then tightened up by a screw working upon a thread on the end of the i'od O, and held in place as shown in figs. l and 4.
These sections, when 'thus united, form the sectional fire-plate heretofore mentioned. This fire-plate is placed in the front of thel stove, with the serrated side within, and thus forms one of the sides of tlietirechamber.
The advantage of making a fire-plate in sncli sectionsand of so uniting these sections, is that we have thus a continuous plate which may expand and contract without cracking or breaking; we also have a plate which is very durable andadmits of easy and quick repair. Lastly, such a plate is a prime conductor and radiator of. heat from the fire wit-hin to the air with` out, or to a sad-iron or other article placed against it.
D is a folding shelf, p ivoted on rods or hung on hinges, H, fastened to the stove at the lower side of said shelf. In this shelf is a set of drauglit-registers,
. opened and shut by slides.
On the inner side of this folding shelf, supported by thc-frame and separated from the main portion of this shelf, is a series of slats, E, ruiming lengthwise across the shelf. These slats are to hold any plate, sad-iron, or other article to be heated, and to keep suoli article from coming into contact with the hot shelf itself,and also to allow the air to circulate freely below the article.
On the lower edge of the frame of this shelf, and between the hinges, is a flange, T, running parallel to the side shelf and at right angles to the edge of the frame to which it is attached. A
This flange T works in a narrow longitudinal openp W, a new and different function, now to be described.
The shelf being folded up, the flange T will then assume such a position ,that adraught-passage or openf ing, W, is made between the upper inner side of the flange and below the bottom of the sectional fire-plate.
The registers I in the shelf are now opened, and at the. same time the registers N in the bottom, of the Stove are closed.
' Upon the completion of these arrangements the air to feed the fire, instead of entering the fines N, will now pass through registers I and int-o the space L between the folding shelf and the sectional fire-plate.
As this incoming air passes over the hot surface -of the sectional lire-plate it becomes heated,-and,' passing down through opening W, it enters the space g below the' tire.- It then passes up through the fire-grate S and enters into combustion with the fuel.
This air, in consequence. of becoming thus heated, enters more easily and rapidly into combination than when not so heated. Therefore the heat tllus radiated by the sectional re-plate, when not used for warming the room or heating any article placed on folding shelf D, is utilized in aiding the combustion of the fuel in the fire-chamber.
When the shelf D is unfolded the flange T will then plate in such a manner as to entirelyclose the draughtpassage W, as shown by the dotted lines offig. 2, thereby cutting off all entrance by that way of ail` into the space below the lire-grate. The registers N must then he opened, and air passes through them up through the grate to the re in the common way.
My invention, with its advantages, is applicable not only to stoves, but also to ranges and the like.

2. The connecting-bar C, in combination with the sections B B B, Snc., substantially as described and for the purposes set forth.
3. The sectional fire-plate B B B, 86e., constructed substantially as described. '4. The sectional fire-'plate B, in combination with a stove, range, or the like, substantially as and for the purposes specified.
5. In4 combination with a stove or range or the like, the fire-plate B and folding shelf D,'snbstautially as and for the purposes set forth.
6. In combination with a stove or range or the like having a front lire-plate or plates, a folding shelf pro-` vided with a draught door or doors above, in connection with a draught-opening in the stove below, so that when the shelf is closed up the draught may pass through said doors and opening, but when the shelf is let down the draught is cnt off automatically by the bottom edge of said shelf, substantially as described.
