ODORLESS CBEMATORY. v
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 2, 1916.
Application filed January 20, 1916. Serial No. 73,187.
To all whom it my camera:
Be it known that I, AUGUSTUS C. FnLToN, Jr., acitizen of the United States, and a resident of Macon, in the county of Bibb and State of Georgia, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Odorless Crematories, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to improvements in odorless garbage crematories, and it consists in the combinations, constructions, and arrangements herein described and claimed.
An object of the invention is to provide an eflicient device, this efficiency being obtained by utilizing the heat of certain gases which would otherwise pass up the flue orchimney, by conducting these hot ga'ses underneath the night soil pan of the crematory, before the products of combustion are permitted to escape.
A further object of my invention is to provide a comparatively simple device for directing the flow of the gases so as to eX- tract from them a maximum of heat.
Other objects and advantages will appear in the following specification, and the novel features of the invention will be particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings forming a' part of this application, in which Figure 1 is a horizontal sectional view through the lower portion of the furnace or crematory. Fig. 2 is a section along the line 2-2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a section along the line 33 of Fig. 1. Fig. 4 is a section along the line 44 of Fig. 3.
Referring more particularly to Figs. 2 and 3, it will be seen that I have provided a main combustion chamber 'A, having at oneside thereof a set of grate bars B surmounting an ashpit C. The upper wall or roof of the combustion chamber is areshaped as shown at D and is of the reverberatory type in which the heat is reflected downwardly. Disposed adjacent to the opposite side of the furnace from that on which the grate bars are located, is the night soil pan E. As will be seen, the top of this pan is disposed below the level of the top of the grate bars.
As will be seen from Figs. 2 and 4,.the combustion chamber A has two flues leading therefrom at the ends of the combustion chamber on the side opposite the fire box. These flues are shown at F and G respectively. The flue F communicates with a downwardly extending flue F which in turn connects with a. U-shaped flue I leading to the stack K. Similarly the flue G connects with a U-shaped flue H also lead- From the foregoing description of the various parts of the device, the operation thereof may be readily understood.
It will be seen that if the gases of combustion are permitted to pass directly to the stack K, considerable heat which might otherwise be utilized would be lost. In my improved construction, these gases are compelled to pass underneath the night soil pan E, so that any liquid which is poured into this pan and which must be evaporated will receive the heat which might otherwise escape, and this insures the boiling and evaporation. It also hastens the burning of any solid matter or dead animals that may be placed upon this pan for cremation.
The device is simple in construction and yet it makes a saving of fuel, beside giving a greater amount of heat at a time when it is needed.
I claim 1. In a garbage crematory, a combination chamber having an arched roof, a fire box disposed on one side of said combustion chamber and being provided with a series of grate bars, a night soil pan disposed on the other side of said combustion chamber, the top of the night soil pan being disposed below the level of the grate bars, a chimney or stack on that side of the combustion chamber adjacent the night soil pan, a pair of U-shaped flues extending transversely of said night soil pan and underneath the latter, said combustion chamber being provided with a pair of openings, one at each end of said combustion chamber, a downwardly extending flue connecting each of said last named openings with one of said U-shaped flues, the opposite ends of said U-shaped flues being in communication with said stack. s
2. In a garbage crematory, a combustion chamber having an arched roof, the curve of the roof being from one side of the combustion chamber adjacent the night soil pan and disposed substantially midway between the ends of the combustion chamber, said combustion chamber beingprovided with a pair of openings, one at each end of said combustion chamber, a. downwardly extending flue communicating with each of said last named openings, a pair of U-shaped flues extending transversely of said night soil pan and underneath the latter, one end of 'each of said U-shaped flues communicating with one of said downwardly extending flues, and the opposite ends of said U-shaped fines being in communication with 1 said stack.
