Filed March 16. 1931 Patented Oct. 17, 1933 UNITED STATES CIPIAYTENT OFFICEV'IJUF 3 41 7 HEATING DEVICE I Luther S. Brown, Fresno, Calif} Application March 16,1931. Serial No. 523,038
' =6'Clain s. "(clear-136) My invention relates to heating devices, used for heating buildings, residenceaand the like, as shown and described in United States Letters Patent No. 1,737,142 issued to me under date of November 26, 1929, and it has for its prime object the provision of an improved and modified construction whereby the same is adapted for use as a steam or hot water heating device.
While I have shown and willdescribe the preferred form of my invention, it will be understood that I do not limit myself to su'clr preferred form but-that various changes and adaptations may be made therein without departing rom the spirit of my invention.
In the drawing accompanying and forming a part hereof: 1 T
Figure 1 is a front elevation of my invention partly broken away for clearness of illustration the casing being shown in section.
Figure 2 is an end elevation of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a perspective view of one of the units forming my device.
Referring to the drawing, my heater is formed or built up of one or more individual units enclosed within an outer housing or jacket and inasmuch as all of these units are similar, one
only will be described. Each of these units.
a short distance from the lower end and from this point 6, tapering inwardly and downwardly to the bottom and inwardly and upwardly to the top with the top narrower than the bottom, and formed within this housing 5 is a heat chamber 7 of the same configuration as the housing thus forming a chamber which gradually increases in area from the bottom to the point 6 and then decreases in area to the top, the object of this construction being-to provide air passages 8 between the units which gradually decrease in width from the bottom to the point 6 and gradually increase in width to the top so as to take advantage of the well known fact that air expands as it becomes heated and it will consequently be forced upwards creating a partial vacuum at the narrow portion and causing cold air to be drawn therein and automatically creating a rapid circulation through my heater without the aid of any mechanical or artificial means. Each of the chambers 7 is connected at its upper end to the next adjacent chamber by a pipe 9; an air valve 10 being provided at the top of one of the end chambers to permit the escape of any air which may become trapped. Ifhe lower ends of the housings '5 extend downwardly at an angle to a poi'ntcentrall'y of theiri'width, the object of which will be obviousfand the chambers "Z'are connected at this point by pipes 11, the chamber at one end 6 being connected'by a pipe 12 to a suitable source or" supply of. steam or hot water, and the chamber at the opposite end being connected by a pipe 13 to a suitable return (not shown);
The units are'held secured together by bolts 14 andf15 at'their upper ends and by bolt 16 at their lower ends which bolts pass through tubes 17 and 18 which are integral with housings 5 and extend across the chambered; The two end housings .5 are provided with legs 19 and 20 which serve to maintain the heater. units above the floor. V 7 I Extending outwardly from the ,edges of the housings 5 near'the bottom are brackets 21 and 22 and resting upon these brackets is the lower end of the outer casing or jacket 23. l The lower end of jacket 23 is open and the upper end is provided with louvers 24 through which the heated air escapes from the jacket,
