4 c fl llfil- 2 1- 1 invention relates generally to heating apparatus and relates more particularlyto improvements in gas fur aces- While not confined thereto, the present invention is shown and described as embodied in a gas furnace of the floor type, A number of difiiculties are encountered in furnaces of this type. For example, servicing such furnaces is often a very diflicult matter due to the fact that certain of the control parts or devices are at or adjacent to the bottom of the furnace and the service difficulties are increased where the lower portion of the furnace is disposed in a small hole or pit, as is the case many installations. The person or persons servicing such furnaces. must get under the house and try to get at the various parts and/or devices needing adjustment, repair or replacement, such, parts generally being below the ground level. It i s, therefore, anobjcct of the present invention to overcome the foregoing difiiculties.
Another object of the invention is to provide apparatus of this character wherein servicing problems are ampli ied- Still another object of the invention is to provide apparatus of this character wherein servicing of said apparatus isrnuch easier than heretofore and effects a great saving and requires far less time.
A further object of the invention is to provide apparatus of this character having an improved arrangement oi the parts and/or deviceand also. having greater accessibility.
A still further object of the invention is to provide apparatus of this, character wherein it is easier to install ndt la pa Y Other objects and advantages of the invention will appear from the following part of the specification.
Referring to the drawings, which are for illustrative purposes, onlyj Fig. l is a'diagrammatic view of a furnace embodying the present invention;
Fig 2, is a section taken on line 2-2 of Fig. 1
Fig. 3 is a partial plan view f such a furnace;
Fig. 4 is a section taken on line 44 of Fig, 1;
Fig. 5 is a section taken on line 5-5 of Fig 2;
Fig. 6 is a section taken on line 6 -6 of Pig, 2; and
Fig. 7 is a diagrammatic view of an alternative arrange'ment.
Referring more particularly to Fig. 1, there is shown a floor furnace comprising anoutcr shell or casing lllwithin which isa firebox 11 mounted in the casing. in the well-known manner and having the usual vents, not shown.
The furnace isv r ceived in an opening 12,- in floor 13 and is secured in the well-known manner with the upper open end 14 of the casing- 10 in substantially the same pla e as the upper surface of said floor.
s snr ided by m ans of a upp ysp pe 15. which is c nec e w th a uitable our e 0t f el and'saidP P 15 is connected with a pressure regulator; 16 having an 2 95; pips.- J, a. par icu- Qt which extends: upwardly ented .Anr- 1924 within the casing 10 and which is connected to a vertically extending portion 1 9 of a manual shutoff valve indicated gener llY at 20.
Valve 20, which is of the same construction as the valve 20a in Fig. 5, includes, a body portion 21 arranged vertically wtih a horizontally projecting part 22 The part 22 is tubular and is externally threaded at 27 for reception of an internally threaded nut 25 which secures an outwardly flanged portion 26 of a nipple 24 to said part 22. The opposite end of the nipple 24 is externally threaded and is screwed into an internally threaded open} ing provided therefor in a safety shutoff valve, indicated generally at 30. The valve 30 has a gas connection with a pilot burner 31, said; connection including conduits 32;, manually controlled valve 33 and tube 34 from said valve 33 to the pilot 31. The tube 34 has an expanded end 34a for reception in a recess provided therefor inportion 33a of said valve 33. Portion 33a is externally-threaded at 33b and a 'nut 34c secures the expanded portion 34a of tube 34 to the adapter portion 33a. Safety shutofif valve 30 is also connected by a pipe orconduit 35' with a direct acting valve, indicated generally at 36.
Valve 36 is connected by a conduit 37 witha valve 20:: which is manually controlled and has the same construction as the valve-'20, saidvalve 20:: being connected to the burner 38'bymeans of conduits 39, 46 and 41 which are suitably-connected together by elbows 42. Valve 36 is electrically'connected by'wires 44 with wall thermostat-45 supplied by power from a transformer 46 through wires 41, said transformer being connected with a source of current through wires 48. A thermocouple or pilot generator 50 is connected by wires 51- with the safety shutoff valve 3%.
The valve Zilais shown in detail in Fig. 5 and-includes a movable valve member 53 for. an actuating stem 54 which extends upwardly, the upper end of said stem 5L4 being below the floor level, as best shown in Fig. 1'. The valve 20 alsohasa movable. valve memberilfrom which extends an actuating stem 55'which also. terminates adjacent the floor level.
Valve. 33 is. shown in detail in Fig. 6 and. includes a movable valve. member 57- from which extends upwardly an actuating stem 58, the upper free end of said stem 58 also terminating adjacent the floor level. A floor plate and grill, indicated generally at 60, covers the. opening 12 in the. floor. and alsothe. top. of the furnace, said floor platenandgrill having. a plateportion 61 and; a. grill portion 62. The; plate portion. 61 has recesses: 63 and pressed therein with. openings at the bottom for reception oftherespectivestems 5.8;a11d 54 of the valves 33. and- 20a.
Thus, thezupper endsof'said stems 58 and54 are exposed for. reception of .a key 66 or other actuating device. but said upper ends do not extend above the plate portion 1 an arep etected so as nqt cbe ru k-by e ornateqna who might, l s e e th urnace The valve 20 is aggcessible by removal of the plate and grill members 611 and is for the, purpose ofi manually turning on or oil the gas supply to the furnace. The safety 'shutotl valve '30 provides the automatic safety shutoif for the' furnace when the pilot flame is extinguished. This valve is ofknown type construction and operation and includes a manual reset having a reset button 70; The valve is held open by millivoltage generated bythe thermocouple or pilot generator.
The directacting valve 36is alsoof a known-type and is-adapted to open and close the fuel line to the burner in accordance with the demand of the room thermostat 45. Thethermostat shown at 45 is of known type which may. be. set for: a desired: room temperature andwhich willgso control the valve 36 as to maintain such temperature.
Should it be necessary to service or replace any=othe controls 20, 30, 33, 36 or a, said controls are readily accessible by lifting the plate and grill member 60. The controls are compactly associated at the upper end of the furnace casing 10. and the various units may be readily disconnected from other units for replacement or servicing. This arrangement reduces costs and saves a great deal of servicing time. In Fig. 4,'the pilot burner or pilot generator'is shown attached to a fixed support 75 which is part of the housing assembly, indicated generally at 76, the pilot burner having a bracket 77 which is secured to said member 75 by screws 78 or the like. i
In Fig. 7, an alternative arrangement of the system 7 is shown wherein a self-operated diaphragm valve, 80, is
used instead of the direct acting valve 36. The valve 86 has an electrical connection by wires 81 and. 82 with a thermostat 45a. The thermocouple cable or pilot generator cable 51 is connected to the terminals of the valve and the valve 80 is connected in parallel, by wires 83, with the valve 30. In this arrangement, the transformer is eliminated.
