40 forming a part of this application, in On the outer face of the panel is mounted a which rectangular conduit 12 open at the back so Fig. 1 is a fragmentary longitudinal seothat the interior thereof is in communication tional view of the body of a railway passenthrough the aperture 10 in the panel with the ger car showing my invention applied to the compartment holding the electric heater and interior thereof and illustrating in dotted also open at both ends to permit egress of lines the normal relative positions of a numthe heated air.

When a conduit is in place and an electric heateris put in operation, the heated air will pass through the opening 10 in the panel 9 into the main body portion of the provide a protector l form'ed of suitable stouttextilematerial which will exclude sand anddust and this issotashioned as to provide cover. or closuresections 115 so as to it over and pocket thespouts 13ofthe'conduit, the said covers orclosures being con 7 nected withv or attached I to the connecting q strip 16 which-is of sufiicient length to extend from one end to the other of the conduit 'duit to hold said protector in place.
munication with the opening in said panel, the ends of said conduit being reduced in sizeand being open for the exit of heated air, a protector of flexible material including covers to pocket the reduced end of the conduit and temporarily close the same, a connecting strip to which the covers are attached and pliable fastening devices secured to said covers and adapted to be wound about said the eon-r covers whenon the reduced ends of 2. The structure set forth in claim 17in combinationwitha strip of foraminous material' disposed across the openingv through the panel and secured to said panel to prevent the insertion of objects through the opening in said panel.
Intestimony whereof, have hereu1ito' af fixed my signature. 7 r v v I Y ANDREA GRAZI ANI,"
across or lengthwise of" the outer w all'of said conduit and suitable pliable fastening members 17 are secured tothe covers so that :when' the protector is in place, these fasten-- mg members may be wrapped around the spouts and tied whereby the protector will be securely held in place against the blasts of air and sand or other cleaning substances under pressure,
a From the foregoing," will be noted when the. cover sections ofthe protector are'inplace, the edges thereofwill be behind the end walls of the conduit body form ing parts of the spouts o f redu ced size and therefore protected, from the blasts of air.
The conduit being of smaller rwidth than I thepanelwhen the device isassembled in a railway car and the fioorjof the latter poured orlaid, the lower edge of the panelwill .be 'covered and the bottom wall of the, conduit will practically lie upon the upper surface of the floor asclearlyshown in Fig. -1, but since the bottomwalls of the spouts are inside from the bottom, of the conduit, said spouts will be spaced fromthe floor to permit application of the protector.
