WALL HEATER.

Application led December 11, 1922. Serial No. 606,335.

State of Ohio, have invented certain' new e and useful Improvements` in Wall Heaters,

of which thev following is a specification.

, The present invention is directed to im-y provements in wall heaters, and has for its primary object to provide a device of this character which can be conveniently secured in an opening in a wall of a room, and when in place therein will effectively heat the room.

A furtherobject of the invention is to provide a wall heater so constructed that a cold air from the room will be compelled to circulate around the heating unit and will be, projected into the room after being thoroughly heated by the circulation.

A still further object of the invention is to provide a heater constructed in such manner that the danger of the heat therefrom setting lire to the adjacent wall parts will bepositively eliminated.

With these and other objects in view, as will appear as the description proceeds, the invention consists in the novel features of construction, combinations yof elements and arrangements of parts, and hereinafter to be fully described and pointed out in the appended claim.

In the accompanying drawing:

Figure 1 is a front view of lthe `heater showing it in place, .c

Figure2 is a sectional view on the line 2--2 of Figure 1, and

Figure 3 is a sectional view on the line 3--3 of Figure 1.

Referring to the drawing 1 designates a portion of a wall, and 2 an opening formed therein, said opening being preferably rectangular in shape so as to. receive the 'similar shaped metallic casing 3, said casing having secured in its upper end an upwardly and outwardly -inclined plate v4.

Secured to the front edges of the sides 5 of the casing 3 are vertically extending angle strips 6, said strips having .secured thereto the forward ends of thesides 7 of the casing 8, the back 9 of said casing being spaced from the back 10 of the casing 3 so as to provide a passageway 11, there being a top wall 12 secured to the upper edges of the sides 7 of the casing 8, said top wall being inclined inthe same direction asthe plate 4, so as to provide an inclined passage 13, which has its outer end opening into the room. 1t will be further observed that the back wall 9 is inclined downwardly and forwardly, as at 14. The burner chamber '15 'comprises side walls 16,'and a rear wall 17, the latter being inclined downwardly and forwardly as at 18there being mounted in the burner chamber a deiecting plate 19, which is spaced from the wall 17 to provide a passageway 20, and since the upper end of the plate 19 is spaced from the top wall 21 of the burner chamber it will be obvious that air can pass from the upper end of the passage 20 and into the burner chamber.

By arranging the walls 9 and 17 as shown a passage 22 is provided which communicates with a passage 23 formed between the walls 12 and 21.

1t will be observed that the outlet openings of the passages 13 and 23- are spaced from the wall lstructure 24,- and it will be further observed that Ithe lower ends or the inlet ends of the passages 2O and 22 are spaced above the .bottom wall 25 of the casing 3 so as to provide an air chamber 26.

The casings 3 and 8 are covered with sheets of asbestos 27, as also the burner chamber 15 which will eliminate any possibility of the wall structure burning. T he `side walls of the casing 8 have secured thereto brackets 28 which serve to Support the front closure 29, said closure having upper and lower openings 30 and 31 respectively, which register with the passage 13 and with the air chamber 26,`and. also the passage 23 so that the cold air may pass through the openings 31 into the air chamber 26 and thence upwardly through the passages'll, 22 and 20,

after which the heated air will be precipiy Atated into the room through the openings 30.

1t will be also observed that

air passages

32 and 33 are formed upon the sides of the burner chamber 16, and it will be of course obvious that heated air will pass outwardly from said passages into the room and through the openings 34 formed in the closure 29.

Extending transversely in the chamber 16 is a burner 35, which is located near the upper edge of the plate 19, there being a hingedly mounted door 36 carried by the clotherefrom to also provide air passages. said 10 sure 29, which can be conveniently raised casing having an air chamber at its lower to light the burner 35 when desired. end and common tothe lower ends of all `What is claimed is: passages, a closure for the casing, and a sup 5 A heater of the class described comprising plemental casing having openings therein a casing, a supplemental casing located which register with 'the outlet ends of the l5 therein and spaced therefrom to provide air respective passages. passages, a burner chamber located in the ln testimony whereofI affix my signature. supplementalA chamber and being spaced HENRY E.
