UNITE 'rA'rES' CFFICE.
JAMES H. MUNDAY, or PARKERSBURG, WEST VIRGINIA.
IMPROVEMENT l-N REFRIGERATORSD.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 129,854, dated July 23, 1872. I
Specification describing certain Improvements in Refrigerators, invented by JAMES H. MUNDAY, residing at Parkersburg, in the county of Vood and State of West Virginia.
The nature of my invention consists in the novel arrangements of the compartments of the refrigerator, and in the employment ofcertain means to effect economy in the use of ice; all of which will be generally explained in the ensuing description, and specifically pointed out in the claims.
Figure l is a front elevation of my improved refrigerator. Fig. 2 is a sectional perspectiveview. Fig. 3 is a transverse sectional elevation. Fig. 4 is a plan View.
The same letters of reference are employed in all the figures in the designation of identical parts.
The refrigerator illustrated in the annexed drawing is more especially intended for use in hotels and restaurants. Its exterior walls are constructed in any approved manner calculated to make them good non-conductors of heat. The central portion of the refrigerator contains two chambers, A and A, in which kegs of beer and ale are to be placed, suitable openings being formed in the front Wall of the refrigerator for the passage of the spigots, by means of which the contents of the kegs can be'drawn off from the outside. The drippings from the spigots are caught up by the fixed cups a and a, and are returned into the refrigerator by the 'pipes b and b, which conduct them to the bottom of basins c and c placed upon the bottom of the central chamber B of the lower division of the refrigerator. The stale beer or ale thus saved and kept properly cool may be drawn off through cocks d and d, to be mixed with the fresh from the kegs in the usual manner. The chambers A and A, provided with suitable doors to admit of the introduction and removal of kegs, and suitable means for supporting the latter in an inclined position, extend from the front I to the rear wall of the refrigerator. They are divided or separated by a narrow chamber, 0,
from each other, and from the respective side walls of the refrigerator by similar'narrow chambers O 0, all of which are to be filled with ice. The chambers (3 open on top into the spaces D l) in the uppermost division of the refrigerator, and access to them is had through the doors D D in the top. The rear portion of the chamber 0 reaches to the top of the refrigerator, and it is filled with ice through a door, D shown in Figs. 3 and 4. The bottom of the chamber 0 inclines from the front to the rear of the refrigerator, so that the water resulting from the melting of the ice will run into the spout e, which conducts it into the bottom of the vessel e, located in the rear of the chamber B. The bottoms of the chambers G G are inclined in a reverse direction, and the water from them runs through the spouts ff into the vessels j j, from which it may be drawn off by cocks attached to them, and used for drinking purposes, &c.; the ice, before its introduction, bein g thoroughly washed to free it from all impurities, and the icechambers being kept scrupulously clean, the drippings from the ice will be fit for such uses. All the spouts conveying' drippings extend down to .near the bottom of the receiving vessels, so that they may be immersed and prevent in that way all circulation of air through them. The upper divisionof the refrigerator is provided with a tank, E, for drinking-water, and two or more smaller tanks, F F, for sirups, each tank being provided with a spigot, through which its contents may be drawn ofl'. .Below the water-spigot is a drip-cup, g, from which the water flows through a spout, g, back into the refrigerator. Upon each side of the chamber B, in the lowest division of .the refrigerator, is a chamber, G, for the reception of meats and other articles of food, access being had to them through suitable doors in the front wall of the refrigerator. The central chamber B has near the bottom a spigot, it, through which any water that may accumulate in said chamber may be drawn off. In it is also arranged a sliding tray, H, for tumblers, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent is- The ice-chambers O G O D D, arranged with reference to the tanks E F and chambers A A and G G as described, in combination with dripping-spouts and receptacles located within the refrigerator, and disposed relative- 1y as and for the purpose specified.
1n testimonywhereof I have signed myname to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
