FRANK S. CONN ER, OF PETAL'UMA CALIFORN 'IA, ASSIGNOR TO PRIDE OF IPETALUMA BROODEB STOVE COMPANY, OF PETALUMA, CALIFORNIA, A GOPAR'INERSHIP.

BROODER s'rovn.

Application filed February 7, 1923.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, FRANK S. CONNER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Petaluma, in the county of Sonoma and State of California, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Brooder Stoves, of which the following is a specification.

My invention is an improved brooder stove.

The object of my invention is to provide a stove having a large radiating surface, which surface directs the heat towards the floor.

Another object of my invention is to provide a brooder stove in which the heated air is conducted over the outer radiating surface, for the major part of its travel.

In the drawing in which my invention is illustrated, I have shown the preferred form, but it may be embodied in other forms, and in this specification and appended claims I wish to cover my invention in whatever form it may be embodied.

The figure in the drawing is a longitudinal sectionalview of my brooder stove.

Referring more particularly to the drawing, my brooder stove comprises three superimposed sections; a bottom fresh air section 1, a burner chamber 2 and a radiating and outlet section 3. The lower fresh air section 1 is preferably cylindrical in shape and has an inlet opening 4 in the bottom thereof, and a plurality of side outlet pipes 5. The fresh air enters the bottom opening 4: and flows out of the pipes 5 to give the room a constant new supply. The horizontal dividing wall 6 is positioned between the sections 1 and 2 and a plurality of holes 7 are formed near theperiphery of said plate to transmit air which is heated by the burner Serial No. 617,479.

are drawn projects through the cover plate 11.

A deflector cone 13 is positioned in the section 3 with its apex above the burner 8, and its periphery secured to the top of the wall 10. An annular passage 14 is thus formed between the cone 13 and the wall 10 through which the heated air flows.

Outlet holes 15' are formed in the cone 13 near the upperedge thereof to permit the escape of the heated air. The bottom of the pipe 12 rests below the line of the holes 15. so that the air must move downwardly before it is exhausted. This results in a slight retarding of the air flow which is desirable, since more opportunity is presented for the air to impart its heat to the wall 10.

An asbestos lining 16 is placed on the inside of the cone 13 to reduce the amount of heat which is dissipated within the cone 13.

and consequently lost out of the flue 12. It is desirable that most of the heat be imparted to the wall 10 and radiated downward into the room.

Having described my invention, I claim:

1. A brooder stove including a burner, a diverging walled outlet section above said burner, a deflector cone in said outlet section above said burner, said cone having a plurality of outlet holes formed therein adj acent its upper edge, and a flue pipe in said outlet section, the bottom of said pipe being below the level of said holes.

2. A brooder stove comprising a lower fresh air section, a middle burner section, an upper diverging walled outlet section, a burner in said burner section, a deflector cone in said outlet section, the apex of said.

cone extending downwardly to a point above the burner, and an outlet pipe in said outlet section.

3. A brooder stove comprising a lower fresh air section, a middle burner section, an upper diverging walled outlet section, a burner in said burner section, a deflector cone in said outlet section, and an outlet pipe in said outlet section,'said fresh airsection having an air inlet and a plurality of outlet pipes formed therein.

4. A brooder stove comprising a lower fresh air section, a middle burner section having its walls converging inwardly to- Ward the top thereof, an upper diverging let pipe in said outlet section extending to Wall outlet section, a cone connected to the a point below the holes in the cone, said upper end of the upper section, said cone fresh air section having an air inlet and a 10 having outlet holes adjacent the plane of plurality of outlet pipes formed therein.

5 it b d h i it x extending down- In testimony whereof I afliX my signature.

wardly, a burner in said burner section located beneath the apex of the cone, an o-ut- FRANK S. CONNER.
