STOVE.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Dec. '7, 1915.

Application filed November 4,1913. Serial No. 799,141.

. stoves adaptable for use with either solid or fluid fuel, the object of the invention being to provide means whereby a cooking stove is readily adapted to employ any kind of fuel; to obviate the necessity for removal of the fluid fuel burners when it is desired to use solid fuel; to so constructand arrange the fluid fuel burners and the ducts for conveying the fuel thereto, that these devices will not unduly obstruct the passage of heated air and products of combustion around the oven when solid fuel is employed, and to improve, simplify and reduce to a minimum the cost of construction of a cooking stove of the type stated, without detracting from the efficiency of the same.

With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in certain novel features of cmistrimtion and combinations of parts as hereinafter set forth and pointed out in the claims.

In the accompanying drawings; Figure 1 is a perspective View partly broken away, showing my improvements; Fig. 2 is a sectional View, and Figs. 3, 4 and 5 are detail views.

1 represents a cooking stove provided with the usual fire box and with an elongated chimney flue chamber 2, between which and the back end of the top of the fire box a damper 3 is provided.

The oven 4 of the stove comprises side walls 5 and upper and lower plates 6 and 7, so disposed that the products of combustion from the fire box may be permitted to pass about the oven before reaching the flue chauil'ier. To control the passage of products of ombustion from the, tire box through 2 or ollunil'M-n bctvvecn the top oven plate am the st ve top, a damper 8 is providcd and a dapper 1) may also be provided between said space or chamber and the fuel chamber 2.

The upper oven plate (3 is made with a plurality of ducts 10 fixed in said plate, preferably integral therewith and each of these ducts communicates atone end with a burner 11 which is also fixed in said oven plate preferably integral therewith and depressed somewhat below the upper face thereof, so as not to obstruct the draft and passage of products of combustion through i the space between the upper oven plate and the stove 'top, when solid fuel is used in the fire box. The duets 10 will be supplied with gas by means of any preferred pipe connections such as now commonly used with gas stoves. When the stove is used as a coal or wood stove, the burners 11 will be covered and protectcdby means of guard plates 12, which may be caused to rest upon seats 13 surroundirig the burners, and thesc plates may be provided with sockets whereby they may be handled. by means of an ordinary store lid lifter. 1

Each burner is made with a central open- I ing 13 and air tosupport combustion is supplied to these openings by means of air ducts 14 formed on the bottom of the upper oven plate, said air ducts being open at the back of the stove.

When the stove is used as a gas stove, the various dampers will be closed and after rcmoving the lids of the stove top, and the guard plates 12, sleeves or rings 15, having vent openings 16, will be placed. upon the upper oven "plate so as to surround the burners and serve to direct the flame and heat therefrom up through the usual stove top openings.

The lower oven plate 7 is made with a centrally located elongated depressed portion 17 having cast therein, a plurality of gas ducts, each of which idpexrforated to form burners 18. These ducts or burners will be connected with suitable pipe connections, such as commonly employed on gas stoves, to supply gas thereto. The burners 18 will be cove'ied by means of a grating or openwork plate 19 which lies [lush with the upper face of the lower oven plate 7.

Various sli ht changes might be made in the details oli constru tion of my invention without departing in m the. spirit thereof or limiting its scope and hence I do not wish to restrict myself lo the precise details heroin set forth.

Having fully described my invention What ters Patent, is

1. In a stove of the character described,

the combination with the stove body, of an oven provided with a plate having an inte' gral burner depressed below the upper face thereof and having jet orifices arranged to discharge upwardly in the direction of the plane of the upper face of the oven plate, said plate formed with an integral fuel duct communicating with said burner, and a re movable cover plate for protecting said burner and adapted to have its upper surface in the plane of the upper face of the oven plate.

In a combined solid and fluid fuel stove, the con'ihination with a body portion, a firechainher, a stove top, and draft controlling means, of an oven in said body portion and spaced therefrom and from the stove top, said oven having lMU'IlQlS integral with its top plate and depressed below the top face of said plate, said integral burners having upwardly discharging jet orifices, and'said top oven plate also having fuel ducts formed therein, and means for protecting Said burners Without obstructing the space between the oven and the stove top, when the stove is used with solid fuel.

3. A stove provided with an oven having a top plate formed with depressed burners integral therewith, removable guard plat-es for said burners when the latter are not in use and removable vented said burners when the latter are in use.

In testimony whereof, I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing Witnesses.
