The next superimposed grate It is of similar conor together, as well as an ash grate with struction to that of the grate 5, except that damper to'close. the openingstherein. These objects, as well as other advantages, I attain by the construction, combination and arrangement of parts illustrated in the accompanying drawings which form a part thereof. y 3

it does not have the openings-9 of the latter. The grate It is supported on top of the grate 5 and also by pedestals 15, the feet of which rest upon the beams 3. The bottom of this grate extends a convenient distance over the top of the grate 5. The next superimposed grate 16 is of similar construction to that of thegrate M and is supported upon the latter and upon pedestals 17. Acover I8 is superimposed upon and extends over the grate 16. The grates l4; and 16 have lateral openings similar to those in the grate 5, also similar vertical dampers to a open and close these draft openings, and
damper mechanism of like character to raise operate for raising and loweringthe dam- .pers singly .or simultaneously as desired. Ihe position of saw-dust material 19, to be incinerated, is indicated in Fig. I. The interior area above the central part of the ashpit, and within the respective grate rings, is open toallow complete upward draft through the same and laterally through the grate opening. A wall 21 is shown in part. This is intended to indicate the wall of any arched oven structure of common type which may be erected over the grates.
2 and lower the dampers, all as illustrated; 'Ihe damper mechanism may be arranged to It will now be observed that when sawdust material-19 is deposited from any convenient source within the arched walls mentioned, and upon the grates arranged within such walls, the dampers are operated to open part or all of the damper openings, as may be desired, to obtain the most edective draft to insure combustion of the saw-dust, which, from its fine nature tends to pack and obstruct ready combustion. It will be seen that a strong lateral draft from the center can thus be produced through the material at varying eights thereof. This insures a very steady and complete combustion. It will further be seen that the grates, each extending over the one below, tends to prevent the material from packing closely in vertical position against the vertical grate surface, and leaves a space in the angle thus formed, into and through which the air may more readily pass. The object of the damper openings 10 is to provide means to allow ashes to drop or be raked through them into the ash-pit below, from which they may be removed more easily. I am aware that various devices have been made to burn material which may pack more or less in mass, but none is arranged or constructed as mine is. It should beremembered that the object of my device is to cause a steady combustion of all the material and inthe least period of time. lit is well known that a very large amount of saw-dust accumulates about a mill handling wood products, which occupies needed space and also creates a dangerous It is highly advanta fire risk to the. mill. geous to quickly and economically dispose of this waste material. At the same time, also to derive benefit and profit from its incineration in any possible manner. The arrangement of the grates is such that the heat derived from combustion of material thereon may be employed to develop power. This would necessarily requirean enclosing wall. If it is desired simply to dispose of the sawdust, the incinerator may be laced conveniently to the mill to receive t 1e saw-dust and the mass incinerated ver rapidly and 'efi'ectually. tional support for the grates, tending to retain them in position and prevent their warping because of the intense heat.
