' IMPROVEMENT m APPARAT-us FOR CURING-TOBACCO.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 174,786, dated March 14, 1876; application filed I November 3, 1875.
pipe or flue, and adapted to be employed in connection with said. separate fines, so as to join the two at their rear ends, forming one continuous fine, as fully hereinafter setaforth and shown.
Thel etter A represents the drying room or chamber, generally consistingof the lower room or story of an ordipgpry barn, and B B, the heating fines or furnaces, extending from the outside of the barn, in front, directly back nearly to the rear. where they are bent or turned toward each other, as shown. From the end of each of said furnaces B B extends an inclined return-flue, (3," passing through the front wall of the room'or chamber above and betiveen the furnaces and fines. Said pipes or fines may be provided with dampers if desired. The fines B B may be constructed of masonry or of metal, or partly of masonry and partly of metal, the pipes or fines 0 being usually constructed of sheet metal.
The letter E represents a short flue, or seetion of aflue, adapted to fit between the opposite ends of thefiues B B, and provided with openings F at opposite sides, whichcommnnicate with openings G at the ends of the fines B B, which are.closed by suitable doors or dampers when the short section or flue E is removed. Said flue E, or section, is provided with a defiectingplate, 0, at its center,'to direct the smoke and other products of combustion to the escape-fine H, which extends from said section at an inclination. through the front of the chamber or barn 1 A.
Said short section or fiue is intended to conmeet the fiuesB together, so as to form, one i continuous flue, in order to increase the heating effect of the apparatus when desired, and when in place the dampers in the. pipes (J may be so "turned as to direct all they products of combustion through saidpipe Hi1" or the pipes may be employed in 'conjunction to carry off the same.
-As thus constructed, a: paratus is provided, at small GOstfWhiGIiQalL be readily fitted or; secured in an ortmm ry barn or outhouse, and by means ofwhich the tobacco-wan beeconomically cured without danger to thesame from overheating or burn ing, as the fire is perfectly under. control, and
the temperature can be-regnlated with the greatest nicety; and as the furnace-doors and escape-fines are both situated on'the same side of the barn or chamber, they will both be under the control -of the operator at the same time, materially lessening the risk.of the building or barn taking fire.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters 'Pat- In testimony that I claim the foregoing I j have hereunto set my hand in the presence of the subscribing witnesses.
