HEAT RADIATOR.
Application filed August 8, 1923. Seri'aI No. 856,325.
. new and useful Improvements in Heat Radiators, of which the following is a specification.
My present invention relates to improvelIlQIltS 1n heat radiators of the type utilizing electrical energy for producing hot water within the radiator, and especially adapted for domestic use. The primary object of the invention is the provision of a portable or interchangeable electric heating device or electric heater which may when desired be conveniently and with facility attached to and detached from a hot water or similar heat-radiator of standard type and construction. The invention may be adapted for use as an auxiliary heater in existing hot water heating systems when heat is desired from a single unit of the system. Or a number'of .single and independent radiators may each be equipped with one of my electrical heat ing appliances for the purpose of heating the several rooms of a dwelling.
The invention consists in certain combinations and arrangements of parts involving a portable heating element and a water tank forming part of the radiator to which the element is applied whereby the heating device may quickly and conveniently be put intouse, as will be described. In the accompanying drawings 1 have illustrated one complete example of the physical embodiment of my invention wherein the parts are combined and arranged according to the best mode I have so far devised for the practical application of he principles of my invention.
Figure l is a view in side elevation show ing a hot water heat radiator of standard type equipped with the electrical heating device of in invention.
Figure 2 is an end view of the radiator so equipped.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of the water heating tank, detached from the radiator.
in Figs. 1 and 2 ct drawings I have illustrated a well known type of heatradiator 1 made up of water tubes or pipes and equipped with an indicator 2, a filling cap for the radiator being indicated at 1. The radiator is preferably elevated, as usual, above the floor and supported on legs 3, to provide sufiicient or adequate space beneath the radiator and on the floor, for a waterheating tank 4:. The tank is of ample size to permit its use as a reservoir in connection with the circulation of water through the radiator and shaped with an upper part 5 to fit beneath the radiator 1. At the endwalls of the tank are provided connecting nipples 6, 6 for the respective branch pipes 7 and 8 attached at the lower part of the radiator to complete the circulation of water through the radiator and the tank by way of these pipes. Preferably the wallso'f the heating-tank are insulated as at 9 to prevent radiation of heat from the tank and insure heatin of the water in the tank as will be described.
lVithin the tank I provide aninterior housing 10, which, as is also the case with the tank, may be made up or" metal, or other suitable material. lhe hou'sin has an end opening 11 in one end wall of t e tank, and terminates at its inner end near the opposite end wall oi the tank. As shown in the drawings the housing is of fiat tubular construction, rectangular in cross section, and properly supported within the lower space of the tank with water surrounding substantially the entire area of the housing, except for its open end 11.
The heating element 12 illustrated articularly in Fig. 5 is of fiat rectangular ormation and of proper dimensions to slip readily into the housing after its end has been inserted in the opening 11 provided therefor. Electric heating coils 13 are provided for the heating element and at its outer end it is furnished with the usual wires 1e and a plug 15. The plug may be inin a wall socket as 16 located near the door as seen in Fig. 1.
lit will be apparent that the radiators tan and connections therefrom to the radiator, and that these radiators may he connected in the usual hot-water heating system, or they may be independent units entirely separate one from another. In either event, the portable heating element in the several rooms of a dwelling he equipped with the stationary Ill) is adapted for use with any one of the units. Thus some or all of the units in a system may be equipped with the portable heating element; or one or more of the heating 5 elements may be used in connection with selected units for the purpose of heating desired rooms.
Each of; the radiators is of course pr0- vided with an adjacent electric socket-plate and socket 165, and the electrical connections circulation in usual manner through the tank and radiator for the distribution of heat from the radiator. The heating element 12 may he slipped readily into, the housing and pushed back into its proper position when it will be entirely concealed, and the only substantial change or alteration in the appearance of the standard radiator is caused by the presence of the tank 4 which is not obtrusive. By this combinatlon and arrangement of parts a convenient and inexpensive appliance is provided which is quite simple both in construction and in use and may be handled or manipulated by unskilled persons .without likelihood of becoming disarranged or in operative. And as the arts are not complicated, but are readi y accessible, they ma be maintained in eificient working conclition at all times.
Having thus fully described my invention, What I claim as new and desire to secure y Letters Patent isflhe combination with a hot water heat-radiator, of a water-heating tank therebeneath and connections at the ends of said tank to said radiator, a housing rectangular in cross section having an open end supported in an end opening in one wall of said tank, said housing located within the tank to rovide a surrounding water space and aving its inner closed end terminating near the opposite end Wall of said tank, and a removable electric heating element in said housing.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
