To all -u'zom z'z may concern v Be it knowntha-t ll, CIAUDE C. NUoKoLs, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Menandsrcountyof Albany, State of New York, have invented certain new and useful lmprovementsin Base-Board- Concealed Radiators,` of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to baseboard concealed radiators and particularly to such radiators which are located wholly within the wall of a room in such a way that a suitable grille plate may be substituted Ator the ordinary basehoard, without extending' out into the room.
l am aware that itl has been heretofore proposed to conceal radiators behind something in the nature of a baseboard, but so far as l am aware, none of theseattempts have been of practical value. due to structural and other detects. It is an object of my presentinventin to provide an arrangementf whereby the radiator may be concealed wholly within the wall, without in any way weakening the wall struct-ure.
Another object o my invent-ion is to provide the grille plate, which takes the place of the ordinary baseboard, with an outwardly and downwardly projecting lip at the top thereof, which lip serves to deflect particlesof dirt which may be carried by the heated air, and thus prevent their being disseminated through the room. 'l
Wy invention consists broadly inproviding a channel-shaped member or members secured at the bottom to the Hoor and at the top to the lower ends of the ordinary wall studs. These channelshaped members, which are preferably of metal, thus ina sense form a continuation of the wall studs, and the channeledosurfaces thereof which face toward the room provide a convenient receptacle for the radiator.
lnthe drawings,
' Figure 1 represents a perspective view of a portion of ia room, showing the means whereby the radiator may be located within the wall;
Fig. 2 is an elevation of a portion of a completed wall, showing the grille plates in position to conceal the radiators;
Fig. 3 is a sectional view of a completed wall. showing the grille plate in position;
Fig. -1 is a front view of the parts shown in Fig. 3 with the grille plate removed, and
Figs. 5 and 6 are views similar to Figs. 3 and 4 respectively, but showing a slight modcation of my invention.
Referring to Fig. 1, 1() indicates a radiator which may be of any desired type. lln order that. this radiator may be located wholly withinthe wall of the room, ll provide channel-shaped members, such for eX- ample as shown at 11, which members arel secured at the bottom to the floor l2 and are secured at the top tothe various wall studs 13. rlhese members 11 are positioned so that their channeled surfaces face toward the room andare adapted to receive the radiator 10 therein. Any suitablemeans may be employed for securing the tops of the members 10 to the lower ends of the studs 13, but as herein shown, ll have provided the members 11 at the top with spaced upstanding fianges 14C (see Fig. ll) adapted to receive therebetween and to be secured to the studs 13.
sshown in Fig. 1, there yis provided below the window opening 15 a space 16 which is entirely free from wall studs and which 'as 1S is provided to cover thisportion'of the radiatori l The grille plates'l. as clearly-appears from the drawing. are substantially Hush with thewall and etlectively conceal the radiator without extending out into the room.
At. the top of the grille plate 17 ll have provided an outwardly and downwardly projecting lip 19 so that as the heated air passes up over the radiator and out into the room it impinges against the lip 19, whereb v the dust particles carried by the heated air are. deflected down on to the floor, instead ot being disseminated through the room. f The modification of my invention illustrated in Figs. 5 and 6 contemplates the use 80 therefore provides a convenient receptacle of a continuous channel bar on each side of the room in placel-of the individual channeled members for the various studs. In carrying out this modification I secure to the top of each channel bar 20 a nailing strip of wood. such as indicated at 21ste provide means whereby the various studs I3 may be secured thereto. In other respects the modification is similar to the embodilnent of my invention previously described and therefore need not be discussed in detail. Practically the only diterence between the two modifications is that in the first modification I use a plurality of separate channel-shaped members, and in the second modification I use a single continuous member. and that I have found it convenient to adopt different means in each case for connect-ing the studs to the channel-shaped members.
From the abovel description, it is apparent that I have provided means for concealing a radiator within a wall without utilizing nany of the room space and without in any way weakening the wall structure of the building. On the other hand, it is appa-rent that, whether I use an individual channelshaped member for each stud as shown in Fig. 1, or a continuous channel-shaped member, as shown in Figs. 5 and 6, they metallic channel-shaped member or members forma continuation-of the wooden studs and thus increase the strength and stability of the building. Also attention is directed to the neatness of appearance of the. completed wall, the same being a decided improvement over exposed radiators and over all attempts at concealing radiators of which I am aware.
hilc I have shown and described but two embodiments of my invention, I do not wish to limit myself to any particular embodiment thereof, since obviously many changes may be made therein, without departing from the spirit of my invention.
What I claim is: Y
1. s an article of manufacture a casing forconcealing a radiator within the wall of a room, comprising in combination. a channel-shaped member the bottom of which is secured to the floor and the top of which is secured to the lower end of a wall stud thereby forming a continuation of the latter. said channel-shaped member being so positioned that it lies wholly within the wall with its channeled surface facing toward the room and adapted to receive the radiator therein; a grille plate secured in position sutistantially flush with the wall and overlying the channel-shaped member and radiator: and an outwardly and downwardly projecting lip secured to said grille plate near the upper and outer edge thereof.
:2. As an article of manufacture a casing for concealing a radiator within thel wall of a room. comprising in combination. a channel-shaped member the bottom of which is secured to the floor and the top of which is secured to the lower end of a wall stud thereby forming a continuation of the latter. said channel-shaped member being so positioned that it lies wholly within the wall with its channeled surface facing toward the room and adapted to receive the radiator therein. a grille plate secured in position substantially flush with the wall and overlying the channel-shaped member and radiator, said grille plate being in spaced relation with respect. to the floor to provide a substantially continuous opening adjacent said floor; and an outwardly and downwardly projecting lip secured to said grille plate near the upper and outeredge thereof.
3. Means for concealing a radiator withinv the wall of a room, comprising a channelshaped member, the bottom of which is secured to the floor andthe top of which is provided with a pair of spaced upstanding ing witnesses: l
