IMPROVEMENT IN STEAM-BOILERS.
Specification forming partrof Letters Patent No. 202,382, dated April 16, 1878 application filed December 12, 1877.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, LEvI SEooK, of Pittsburg, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Steam-Boilers, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to theaccompanying drawings.
The invention relates to an improvement in steam-boilers; and consists in so arranging the plates thereof that the riveted joints shall not be exposed to the action of the lire.
In the accompanying drawing, which represents a perspective view of the invention, B and C indicate the plates composing the boiler, and are of the contour shown.
The plate B is of sufficient lengt-h to almost completely encircle the boiler, and has its ends vcut at an acute angle to the horizontal edges of the plate, the line of the angle diverging upward and inward. Thus when the plate is in position its lower corners almost meet, while the remaining portions of its ends are separated,constructing a space in the form of an inverted equilateral or isosceles triangle, according to the width of the plate, which space is completely filled by the similarlyformed plate (l, having its ends also cut at an angle corresponding with the ends of the plate B.
Thesheets or plates B C are punched and then riveted together by the punching and riveting process heretofore practiced.
rlhe advantage of cutting the plates in the m anner hereinbefore described is to strengthen the boiler, by having the angle of force of the strain upon their riveted ends at an acute angle to the longitudinal plane of its axis.
The purpose of the arrangement ofthe plates B C is to keep the seams of the boiler from coming in contact with the more intense part of the re, and thereby preserve them from being burned off, thus dispensing with a defect to which the ordinary steam-boilers are subjeeted.
I am aware that a steam-boiler composed of plates the edges of which are cut obliquely to the axis of the boiler 'are old, and I do not, therefore, claim such device broadly; but
What I do claim as my invention, andl desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. In a steam-boiler, the combination of the plate B with the triangular plate C, arranged substantially as shown and described.
2. Thesteam-boilerAconstructed from the plates B C, the plate B almost completely encircling the boiler, and having its ends cut at an angle, and the plate C being of triangular form,`and completely filling the space between the ends of the plate B, substantially as expressed.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing impro vement in steam-boilers, as above described, I have hereunto set my hand.
LEvI sHooK.
