Similar numerals oi reference intiicete corresponding parts.

In carrying out my invention, as seen in Figures 1 and 2 ll construct it cabinet or closet, with the back 2 ontltheouter incinber 53, which is adopted to be setintoths well 4 and is provitleii with the. outer beset ed portion 5, which gives a nest one; sttructive appearance to the exterior. Between the lower walls 3 and. 6 is formed the lower chamber 7, within which the switch 8 may be located. Between the upper wells 3 and 9 is formed a chamber it) for the motor css-= ing, and its adjuncts. 11 designates the easing of the electric motor, which latter rotates the blower or fan members 12. The enclosing or guard member 13 which-surrounds the blower element 12 and heating element 14 has its bottom 15 constructed as seen in Figure 3, and provided with the holes 16 through which pass suitable fastening devices, whereby the rear surface of the bottom or base 15 which is preferably spider shaped or provided with radial arms 17, which are 3 in number, is secured to the front wall of the motor casing 11..

it will thus be seen that the guard member 13 is composed of the base 15, the radial arms 17 and the outer annular wall 18, whereby a very rigid and durable structure is provided, from which the heating element 14 is supported in the following manner. 19 designates an outer grid having the in- Wardly deflected lips 20, which are secured to the outer inner surface of'the annular wall 18. 21 designates fastening devices common to the grid 19, and the heating dotted in said figure,

.seen, that the front of the motor casing member 1 1- as will be understood from Fig ures 2 and 6. The wall 18 is provided with the oppositely located trunnions 22, which are seated in suitable bearings 23 as will be understood from Figure 5. It will thus be 11 is secured. to the back of the wall 15, while the heater element 14 is supported from the grid member 19, which is supported by the attachment of the tongues 20 to the wall 18 as seen in Figure 6. By reason of the foregoing construction, it will be apparent that the blower element, 12, the heater element 14- and the guard casing member, composed of the annular wall 18, arms 17 and the central base member 15 are enabled to be rocked or tilted as a unit from the position seen in full lines in Figure 2, into the position seen or into any intermediate position. The parts can be secured in the desired adjusted position by'tightening the screws 24, which will cause the plates 24* to bind tightly upon the contiguous trunnions 22, as will be apparent from Figure 5, it being understood that the construction seen in *igure 5 is duplicated at each side of Fi 'ure 1. It will thus be apparent that the tightening of the screws 24 will secure the heater and the blower and their adjuncts in any. desired position. From the rear hub 25 otlthe motor de ends the pendant member 26, which when t e parts are in the position, as seen in full lines rests upon the wall 27, and serves to hold the parts in'horizontal position, as seen in full lines. The upper stop or abutment 28 arrests the movement of'the parts, when they assume the position seen in dotted lines in Figure 2 and said stop assists the frictional devices seen in Figure 5 in holding the parts in the position seen in dotted lines in said figure. 29 designates a memes pair of electric light bulbs, which may be located in the approximate positions seen in Figure 1. The electric light bulbs as well as the blower element 12 and the heater element 14 may be controlled by the switch 8 which. controls the heater and blower, so that the heater element and the blowin element may function independently or simultaneously as may be desired. The electric lights 29 can either be controlled by the switch member 8 as stated, or may be independently controlled by pull chains of the usual character. If desired the electric lights 29 can be dispensed with. It will be seen from the foregoing that my device constitutes a very useful adjunct to the usual medicine cabinet or closet or mirrored support in a bath room, or the like, since such a closet equipped at its upper portion with novel devices of this character, enables the user to keep'the bath room cool in hot Weather, and in'cold weather it permits the room to be heated by the heater clement, since heat from the heater can be instantly diffused throughout the room from the heater element 14 in the desired directions. The device also constitutes a very useful toilet appliance, as it can be used for drying hair and for other drying purposes, as is evident.

It will be understood that the cabinet or closet 1 may beequipped with a mirror 30 and shelves 31 as is customary. I have deemed it unnecessary to show the un'ring connections intermediate the switch 8, the motor casing 11, and the heater element ll. as these may be'connect'ed up in any suitable manner by any electrician as will be appar cut to those skilled in the art. I preferably provide the base 15 with the ventilating p0rts32- seen in Figure 3, and the wires may pass through the slot 33, seen in Figures 1 and 3 to the blower and heater which slot serves to guide and support them. An other embodiment of my invention is illustrated at 34 in Figures 7 and 8 wherein the annular casing 35 is -provided, v.rithin which the blowing and. heating elements and the outer grid member are supported substantially as already described with respect to the upper portions of Figures 1 to (3. This device may be provided with the switch 37 and constitutes a small, self-contained fixture, which can be readily secured to the wall of a bath room or, other rooms of a house or an apartment, and constitutes an efficient, small,rreadily portable element, having blowing and heating devices, which are pivotally supported as already described. The coacting heating and blowing elements in the rear of the grid member 19 seen in Figures 7 and 8 are of the same construction as already described with respect to the other figures and a further description thereof will be unnecessary. While my Inn (ill

mamas securing the fixture in position in an annular" recess in said wall. The boss 38 is diametrioally op osite to the boss 40,. carrying the switch. 8 so that the entire design or front of the fixture has a neat, symmetrical and attractive appearance.

In the construction seen in Figures 7 and 8, I have shown'the fixture as adapted to be set back into or embedded in the wall 4, substantially as seen in the upper portion of Figure 2. In Figures 9 and 10, I have shown a fixture 41, substantially siinilar to the fixture 3 1, seen in Figure 7. but said fixture 11 is adapted to be placed directly against the wall 4, and supported with respect thereto by the screw or other fasten-' ing device which passes through the upper boss 43. In the structure 411, seen in Figure 9, I have shown a pair of electric lights 44. oppositely disposed upon the horizontal median line of the device. The boss 43 is in the same vertical line as the boss 45, so that the two bosses 43 and 45 and the electric lights 44 are symmetrically positioned upon the fixture 41, so that a grace- 111 and symmetrical appearance is imparted thereto. In all thestructiu-es seen in Figures 1, 2, 7, 8, 9 and 10, it will be apparent that the front of the motor casing 11, is secured to the back of the wall 15 or the guard element 13, and that the outer grid 19 .18 in each instance secured to the annular wall 1.8, of said guard element 13. The electric heater 141, is in each instance, secured to the inner wall of the grid 19, and the elements 19, 14, 12, 11, and 13 are-cn abled to he rocked or tilted as a unit and the unit is in each instance secured in the desired adjusted position by the tightening of the screws 24, or their equivalents. It will be apparent that by making the back of the guard element 13, of a skeleton construction or composed of the members 15 and 17, as seen in Figure 3, the weight ot the device is reduced to a minimum and ample provision is made for the necessary cooling of the various elements. The front wall of the cabinet 1. seen in Figures 1 and 2. as well as the grid 19, can be enameled white, so as to give a pleasing and sanitary appearance to the entire device and the front wall of the annular iasings 34 and 41, as well as their grids 19, can also be enameled white, so as to impart an attractive appearance to the entire structure. The blower or cooling element composed of the members 11 and 12 may be any standard or conventional fan now on the market, and can. be readily adapted for high, low, or intermediate speeds, according to requirements. The electric heater 14, may be composed of one. two, or more electrically heated elements, and may be provided with means for utilizing a single element or a plurality of heating elements which may be energized singly or simultaneously, either alone or in conjunction with the high, low. or intermediate speeds of the blower. As the wiring for this apparatus can be constructed or connected upby any electrician skilled in the art, I have deemed it unnecessary to describe the same in detail.

iii

The construction seen in Figures 1 and 2 is especially adapted as a bath room fixture but it will be evident that it can be used in other locations, while the construction seen in Figures 7 to 10, can be readily installed in a bath room or other room. of a house or apartn'icnt in any desired loca tion. It will be apparent that the construction seen particularly in Figures 9 and 10 is readily adapted for installation at any desired point, since it can he hung? or suspended from any wall at any point. It will be apparent that if desired, the heating element 14 can bebmitted, since in tropical countries this element would not be neces sary. I preferably, however, collocate the heating and blowing elements in substanti ally the manner seen. since thereby my novel structure is readily adapted to all climatic conditions in any climate or latitude as is evident.

It will be apparent that the chamber 10 seen in Figs. 2, 8, 10, 12, and 14 to be here-- after referred to performs-an important function in effecting the cooling of the fan or blower clement, since the space between the outer walls of the chamber 10., and the guard element 13, permits the ingress and flow ofair, as indicated by thearrows, so that a positive circulation of air around the motor is provided for, thereby keeping said motor cool at all times, which is verv desirable in devices of this character, since if the motor becomes overheated, it will be liable to be seriously damaged.

In the construction seen in Figs. 11 and 12, I have shown a mirrored support 16, for the blowing and heating elements, said support comprising the outer casing or frame 47, in which the mirror 48 is secured against a suitable backing 49. In the upper portion of the device is the air circulation chamber 10, and the grid 19..hcater 14. blower 12, motor 11, and guard member 13 comprising the outer casing 18 are assembled in sub stantially the same manner alreiuly described with reference to Figs. -1 to G. In Figs. 11 and 12 however, I have made proill Lon

vision for the blowing and heating elements to be i insted into their extreme nppe' and lower portions, and I also molt provision for hinging the blowing and heating elements and their liljdl cts, so that they may =nlly for the purposes of repair. The annular wall 13, .l trunnion 50, which is held 1 s by the trunnion cap 51, see Fig. lb. The opp lie or left hand side of the annular wall is provided with the hinge ineinber 5:2, composed of the head 53, trunnion 5i, and male member 55, which is held in pivotal connection with the tenmle member by the bolt or pin 57, the female member being carried by the guard memand tinned therein diametrically trunnion 50. The left hand held to its bearing 58, see 59 and the heat 53 is located ,0. as will be uncle stood from The upper and lower lips all'ord s convenient means for ienting nnd blowin g elements his upper end lower positions lines in l2, and said to have access to thev nents, it is only necie right-hand trunnion either of the hooks 61, ports onnbe readily swungn seen dotted at the left of 19, Ll, 12, 11 and 13, are colloczited substantially nlready described, as are also i hinge and trunnion elements described with reference to Figs. l1, l2, and to 18. The hinge and trunnion elements, seen in Figs. 13 and 14, are however, diametrically positioned on the ring (38, best seen in Fig.

1d. and the motor 11 seen therein is supported on upper and lower pivot points (59 and ill, the ripper pivot point being adjustable and being formed at the bottoniol the screw 'il. This construction permits the automatic lateral oscillation of the heating and blowing elements by reason of the link connection 2'2, which can be thrown into or out of operation by the nmnipulntion of the finger piece 73. This is a standard construcing the mirror in, therein positione tion in certain types of ons need not be described in detail, as it may conform to the construction se n 1n n nrior potent to l f. A. Brown, while this fan oscillation, per

se, is not new, 1 Hill the first to employ it inwith reference to Figures ll and 12. l have show; the bloi'ving and heading e erncnts in Figures 13 end 14 213 inonnted'on e. mirrored support T l, composed of the frame T5, hovd against the backing ill, already described.

The various forms of mirrored supports, seen in Figs. 3,2, l1, l9, 3, and 1%, have great ntilitynnd cosct with my novel llPflling and blo ring elements, particularly when my devices are used by women in drying their hair after washing it, as is evident.

The oscillating device seen in Figure 14, can or course be used in the constructions seen in Figures 2 end 12, and the mirrored support seen in rigures 13 end 14 can obviously be employed in lieu of the cabinet or closet construction, seen in Figures 1, 2. 11 and 12, if desired. The switches seen in Figures 1 and 11 may obviously be placed on any other part of the device or at any other convenient points on the well of the room in which my novel device may be locored.

It will be obvious that the pivotal points or trunnions 2:? may o sitioned forward or back out-lie guard elllnent 18, so that a true balance is provided between the motor and its adjuncts and the hen. er and its adjuncts, and the electric heater elements may or may not be in :1 metal body, as is evident.

It is clearly evident that any form of the device shown may be adopted to be set in the wall or on the Well of the room in which it is to be used.

In the wiring diagrams seen in Figures 19 to 23 l have shown the heater, blowcr and the control devices therefor in the various positions which the latter may assume as will be evident to those skilled in the art. In Figure 19 I have shown the con-, trol for the heater and the blower; In Figure 20 it here shown the oil position of the various parts. in Figure 21 l have shown control devices operating the blower only. In Figures 22 and :23 l have. shown the control devices as operul log the blower-[with low heat and the blower with high heat respectivcly.

It will now be apparent that I have deyised a novel and useful constrnctioirof combinationblower and liei1te1-,which embodies the lentures of advantage enumerated as desirable in the statement of the inventill having screws ads memes tion on; the above description and while I have in the present instance shown and described the preferred elnbodiment thereof which has been found in practice to give satisfactory and reliable results, it is to be understood that the same is susceptible of modification in various particulars without departing from the spirit or scope of the iz'ivention or sacrificing any of its advan tages.
