WILLIAIM BASSETT, OF. BROOK, INDIANA.
HEATING n'rracnnnnr roe MOTOR VEHICLES.
Application filed March G, 1924. Serial No. 697,324.
To all to ham it may concern Be it known that I, lVILLrAM Bnssn'rr, a
citizen of the United Statesgresiding at Brook, in the county of Newton and State o'tlndiana, have invented certain new and the motor vehicle may be utilized for heating the radiator during cold weather.
A further object of the invention is to provide a device of the above mentioned character wherein the exhaust gases are :turther utilized for heating a foot warmer provided in any conyenient manner in the floor board of the motor vehicle whereby the occupants of the same may keep their fe'et warm. 7 I
A further object of the invention is to pro vide a heatingattachment of the above mentioned character, wherein means is provided torpreventing the exhaust gases from enter ing the heater when it is not desired to use the latter. p
A further object of the invention is to provide a device of the above mentioned character, which is simple in construction, inexpensive, strong and durable and further well adapted for the purpose for which it is designated.
Other objects and advantages of this invention will become apparent during the course of the following description In the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification and in which like numerals designate like parts throughout the same V Figure 1 is a plan view of my invention showingthe same in position on a motor vehicle. a
Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of the radiator heater. 1
Figure 3 is an enlarged end elevation, of the radiator heater showing the valve thereof.
In the drawing wherein for the purpose of illustration is shown the preferred embodiment of my invention, the numeral 1 designates an elongatedpipe, the inner end of which is connected bya suitable coupling such as is shown at 2 to the exhaust pipe A whereby the inner end of the pipe 1 is adapted to communicate with the exhaust pipe for the purposes hereinafter to be moretully described. Extending transversely from the pipe 1 andconnocted thereto by means of the coupling 3 is the inwardly disposed por-' tion 4 oil the elongated pipe. 5. The pipe 5 extends longitudinally on the opposite side of the exhaust pipe A and is supported on the chassisor frame of the vehicle B in any suit able manner The forward end of the elongated pipe 5 is disposed inwardly as shown at 6 in the drawing and is adapted to it in one end of the elongated tubular heater 7 which is adapted to be supported in any appropriate manner in the bottom of the radiator C. The heater pipe 7 is provided with spaced apertures Stor the purpose of permitting the exhaust gases passing therethrough and discharged in contact with the radiator for heating the contents thereof The opposite end of the heater pipe 7 is provided with an enlarged central opening 9 and cooperating therewith is the slidable valve plate 10. The latter is slidably supported on the bolts 11 and 12 respectively,
which extend outwardly from the before mentioned end of the pipe 7 and suitable coil springs orthe like such as are shown at 13, are disposed around each ofthe boltshetween the heads thereof and the outer face of the valve plate 10 for normally holding the valve over the opening 9. This construction provides a safety valve which protects heater pipe '7 from exploding as a result of a misfire in the exhaust pipe.
Extending around the inwardly extending portion a of the elongated pipe 5 is the cylindrical casing 14: and the same is supported on the inwardly extending portion 4 of the pipe 5 in any suitable manner and has an upper portion adapted to extend throughthe floor board of the motor vehicle in any suitable manner. This casing 14: provides a foot warmer whereby the occupants of the car may keep their feet warm when in engagement with the upper portion of thecasing 14 when the device is in operation.
Mounted in any suitable manner within the coupling 3 which connects the inner end of the inwardly extending portion 4 or the pipe 5 with the exhaust pipe 1, is a two way valve of the well known construction, and it is not thought necessary to go in detail relative to the same as any conventional type of two-way valve may be used tor the purposes of carrying out the objects of the present invention. The valve control arm is shown at and the outer end thereof is connected by means of a link 16 to the rod 17 whichis pivoted intermediate its ends as shown at 18 in the drawings, directly beneath. the floor board and the forwardly extending end of the rod 17 is connected to' a suitable manuallycontrolled lever 19 which extends upwardly through a suitable opening provided in the floor board and within easy access to the operator of the vehicle. For the purpose of normally keeping the valve in the exhaust pipe 1 open and the valve in the inwardlyextending portion 4 of thepipe 5 closed, a suitable coil spring, such as is shown at 20 in the drawing, is provided.
The operation of my device'may be briefly stated as follows. In the warm weather, when it is not desired to heat the water in the radiator and to use the foot w'armer,the
"valve in the exhaust pipe 1 will be normally manner.. It is to be understood that when the valve in the pipe 1 is open, the valve in- 1 icpipe 5.-
the radiator heater 7 is provided, and also.
Cir
p the leverf19in a rearward position whereby, the exhaust gases from the exhaustpipe may in. an open position whereby the exhaust gases from the exhaust manifold will be caused to pass therethrough and be emitted from the outer end of the pipe 1 in the usual the inwardly extending portion 4: of the pipe 5 is closed thereby preventing any exhaust gases from the pipe 1 from entering the During the cold weather, the water in the radiator usually has a tendency to freeze and to prevent the freezing of the water whereby the operation of the vehicle is enhanced,
provided in conjunction therewith, is the foot warmer 14. When it is desired to place these heaters in operation, the lever 19 is actuated so that the valve arm 15 will be swung in such a manner as to close the out-- let in the pipe 1 and'open the valve in the inwardly extending portion at of the pipe 5 whereby the exhaust gases from-the ex- 7 haust manifold will pass through the pipe 1 into the inwardly extending portion at of the pipe 5 causing heat to be transmitted to,
thecylindrical casing 14, the exhaust gasespassing through the pipe 5 into the elon,.
gated tubular heater 7 supported in the bottom of the radiator where through theopenings 8,. the exhaust gases will be dischargedin contact with theradiator thereby heating the same and keeping the same in a warm condition. 'As stated before, the safety-valve. 10 will prevent anydanger of explosion and the A pressure at'whichthe valve.

If desired, an additional radiator heater could be positioned in front of the radiator and connected to the pipe 5 in any suitable manner. This however is only necessary in places where the weather is extremely cold and the use of one radiator heating pipe would be insufiicient to properly carry, out the functions; of the While I have shown the preferred embodi- I ment of my invention, it is nevertheless to be understood that various changes in the,
size, shape andarrangement of parts may be resorted to without departing from the spirit of the invention or thescope of the 'appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, "what including the exhaust pipe of the internal combustion engine andradiator thereofglof aheater for saidradiator connectedto said exhaust pipe and comprising an elongated cylindrical perforated casing supported at the bottom, of said radiator, the outer free end of said casing having opening provided therein, a cover plate for said open ing, and means fornormallykeeping said cover plate, in engagement with said open- A mg q 2.
