` JOHN L.' TUoKEE, oE'MANoHEsrEE, NEW EAMPsnianfAssrGNon-To HiMsELE AND EEANK-nows'r, on SAME PLACE..
' IMPROVEMENT IN R'EFRiGEnAToRs.
Specification frmingpart of Letters Patent N o. 174,169, dated February 2.9, 1876; application filed` To all whom it may concern y Be it known Ithat I, JOHN L. TUCKER, of Manchester, of the county of Hillsborough and State of New Hampshire, have invented, a new and useful Improvement in Refrigerators; and do. hereby declare the same'to be' fully described in the following specification, and represented in the accompanying drawings, ot' which Figure 1 is a. front elevation, Fig. 2 a vertical and transverse sect-ion, and Fig. 3 a horizontal section, of a refrigerator containing my invention.
In this refrigerator the outer. case Ais cylindrical and constructed of wood, its sides being. composed of a series of staves, a a a., and hoops b b encompassing them, there being in the front a doorway, for reception of a door, o. The bottom or base d and the cap or cover e I usually make of wood," and have the cover applied so a-s to be readily lifted 0E the body. Within the body concentrically is a metallic case, B, which rests at its lower edge on the bottom, and at its top it is provided with a iiange', g, extending from it to the inner surface ot' the outer case, the whole being to form between the two cases a deadair chamber or space, h. Within the upper part of the case B is a cylindrical ice-receiver, C, having a` foraminous'- or woven-wire bottom, 13. There extendsaround the receiver C, near its lower part, a bottle -`rack D,
pierced with numerous holes, lo, for reception of the necks of bott-les, inverted and arranged in a space, I, which surrounds the ice-receiver. Directly underneath the ice-receiver is a drippan, E, supported by and opening at its center into a tubular column, F, which extends up fromV and opens through the bottom d. Furthermore, there is to such column F, so as to be supported thereby in place, one or more countershelves, G G, each being concentric with the column and the case B, and so applied to the column as to be capable of being revolved thereon.
Each shelf should have a diameter a little less than that of the circle of the centers ot' the bottle-receiving holes of the bottle-rack,
December 29, 1875.
in order that any leakage from any one of the bottles may drop outside of and not upon the shelf, and also to enable air to freely circulate around the shelf or shelves.
Un lthe receiver C being charged with ice, it will cool the air inthe case.
In neither of the patented refrigerators,
however, are there the bottle-receiving chamber and rack, nor a series ot' rotary shelves supported by and capable of turning upon theg educt. p V Each of my rotary vshelves has in it a series vof openings, m, to receive the necks of bottles in an inverted state,my refrigerator being intended especially for preserving or cooling beer, ale, or wine or liquids in bottles, although it may be used for the preservation or cooling of vegetables, meats, or various other matters.
The bottle rack is fixed directly to the icereceptacle, so as to be readily lifted out of the case with such, the two being supported not only by legs o o extending down from the ice-receiver and about the drip-pan, but by a fiange, 19, projecting inward from the case B. The rack near its outer edge rests on the said liange.
Each shelf Gris supported on a collar, n, encompassing the column F, and provided with a screw, o, for clamping it to the latter, the whole being to enable the shelf to be adjusted vertically on the column, as well as to revolve thereon.
In the said refrigerator, I claim as my iuvention- 1'. The refrigeratoras provided with the ice-receptacle G, bottle-rack 'D, drip-pan E, and rotary shelves Garranged as shown, and as having the hollow column F leading The waterthat may escape from the ice will be received' into the drip-pan, and from it will escape V 'from and ont of the drip-pan and down as described, and provided with legs` projectthrongh and supporting the shelves, and ex'- ing from thefsnid ice-receptacle down around tending through the bottom d, all being` arthe drip-pan, as set fort-h.
ranged as shown and described. JOHN L, TUCKER.
2. The inner euse B, provided with the Witnesses: ange p, in combination with the separate L. B. CLOUGH,
ice-receptacle C and bottle-rack D, connected D. F. CLARK.
