An object of'my invention is to provide in a radiator. of this type,-iimprovedmeans whereby a continuous circulation, Substan tially through the entire length ofe'ach section, may be more readily obtained, so that this circulation results in a flow. of the heat ing fluid first through'one sectionand then through the adjacent section, alternately, to.

A further object ofmy invention is to provide an improved structure in the form:
opening where The, diiliculties whicharemet in practice 1n obtaining maximum heat radiation bythe radiators in the usual heating systems vemployed in the homes and other buildings, due to the fact that the heating fluid is not posi tively circulated substantially. the entire length of each section of the radiator so as a to obtainz'inaximuin surface contact with the v interior walls of the sections, is preferably overcome in accordance with this invention by providlnga novel method of connecting the adjacentsections together whereby the heat ng fluid continuously circulates the .en-
tire length of each section, alternately pass-- mg from one section, to the other, either at the upper or lower ends, and further,"by
providing improved means whereby the heating fluid is caused to return through the same sections to the terengaging flanges serve to interlock adjacent sections, so that the heating fluid when entering the first section preferably rises to the top and passes to thesecond sec- .tion where it flows downwardly to the bottom of the same and enters thethird section,
the circulation continuing in a similar man ner until the end section, is reachedQ In the inlet pipe 3 preferably having a two-way flow; The sections are furnished with openings at the upper (and lowerends and adjacent these openings inend 'seetion, the heating fluid passesto the opposite side Where it flows substantially through the entire length of this section, in
an opposite direction, and re-enters the next section, so that in. effect a return flow throughthe radiator on the opposite sideis obtained, I provide a very; simple means for accomplishingthis result, fibeing "in the 3 form of'a partition, secured preferably centrallyineach section, and tightly engaging I the partition of the adjoining section at the j the adjoining section intereonnectsq I The invention isclearly illustrated inthe drawings, inf'whichlO represents a radiator having a plurality of sections 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15, which obviously may be of any'desired typeand provided in any number. I
By'referring to Fig.3, it will be noted that the heating fluid enters the radiator by way of a pipe.16. suitable union interand 20 are furnished in a manner on opposite sides permitting the lower openings 17 of adjoining sections to register with each other and the upper openings 20 to llkewise reg1s-' ter with each other. To hold the sections interlocked, interengaging flanges 21 and 22 maybe provided about the openings 17 and 20 to connect the sections alternately at the top and bottom with adjacent sections, this being clearly illustrated in Fig. 3.' The inner edge of each section may have a depending web-like portion 2st at the upper and lower ends to serve as reinforcing means,
and also as a means to receive a tying rod or bolt 25. Tylng rod or bolt 25 functions to mterconnect or hold the sections together. The particular type of lnterengaging flanges 21 and 22 employed may be varied according to the manufacturing problems to be overcome for any desired type of radiator construction. In the drawings, an overlapping type of flange is illustrated, but it will be understood that I do not desire to be limited thereto, but to merely illustrate the same because they facilitate assembly and provide a neat union when the sections are tied together by the rods or bolts 25.
The circulation has been indicated by arrows in Fig. 3. It will be observed that the upper end of section 15 has a transverse opening 16 resulting from the provision of a partitional wall 26 extending between the inner edge and theperiphery at the upper end of the section 15. This partitional wall 26 is preferably provided in each of thesections' forming the entire radiator, both at the upper and lower ends, that is, the partition runs from the inner ed e to the peri hg P V ery, both at the top and bottom so as in effect to divide each section into 'twolunits,
. this construction being probably more clear- 15y illustrated in the modified showing of igy6.
The circulation then proceeds through the opening 16 to the other side of the last section 15 and again through the entire length of the section, preferably this time in a downward direction and re-enters the preceding'section 14. The heating fluid then rises to the top of this section and re-enters the section 13. Thus the heating fluid is returned through the radiator and may leave the same by way of the pipe 16. Pipe 16 may be provided with a dividing wall'28 centrally located so as to register with the said radiator.
edge of the partition 26 in the lower end of the first section 11.
It will now be evident that according to the'teachings of this invention the radiator section's,'when placedtogether and tied by rods 25 will afford a continuous circulation of theheating fluid through the entire length of eachsectiomreturning therethrough on the opposite sides of the sections. In other words, the construction is such that a twoway flow is provided throu h the radiator.
This arrangement-may be accomplished in any manner desired, but I find that for structural" reasons it is advantageous to furnishthe partitions 26 inthe manner illust'r'ated in the drawings andjto alternately arrange the openings 17 and20 at the lower and upper ends whereby the sections may be interconnected and interlocked to form a complete radiator.
Obviousl the invention is not limited to the specific embodiment illustrated and described herein, but is capable of many variations andlother applications within the spirit and scope of the invention as set outby the following claims. i
