FOLDING PO CKET COOK-STOVE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 274,330, dated March 20, 1883.
' Application file d December 9, 1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, THOMAS W. HoUoHrN, of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Folding Pocket (look-Stoves; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others 7, sections of the lamp. Figs. 8, 9, and 10 show the method of making thehandle-soekets.
This invention relates'to improvements in folding pocket cookstoves. Its object is to simplify and cheapen their construction, to render them better for wear, and handier in use.
The invention consists in the peculiarities of construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter set forth. y y
In the annexed drawings, the letter A represents the lamp support or frame, consisting of two or more standards jointed together. In the present instance three standards, B B B are shown, made alike. These standards are constructed usually from sheet metal, and are given the shape indicated. At themiddle they are provided with the openings b, having the straight bottom edges, Z1, and the curved top edges, 12 these openings forming the lampseats. .At their corners at these standards are provided with the holes a, which are made preferably longer vertically than across. In these holes are placed the rings 0, which are made cylindrical, as shown, and fit snugly. These rings form the joints or hinges by which the standards are held together. By means of these rings the edges of the standards B B and B B are'held together permanently; but the meeting edges of standards B and B are not so connected. These edges have the holes a; but they are connected by the catches I), as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. These catches l have the shape therein shown. They are curved so as to have the bands (1 and d.
In using the frame as a support for the lamp E the latter is surrounded by the frame restingin the seats b, the standards readily turning on their hinges and closing around the J lamp. In this position the frame is locked by fastening the catches D, as shown in Fig. 2. In case the frame should be turned upon itself in the opposite direction from that shown in Fig. 2, the catches would still operate to hold it, as the curve d would readily slip into the hole a adapted for receiving the catches, so that the frame can be locked in whichever direction it may be turned.
There is no danger of putting the lamp in upside down. For if the lamp should be placed in the seatswith its bottom to their curved edges it would not fit snugly, and the standards would not come together and fasten.
As shown in Figs. 6 and 7, the lamp E is provided at its top with a wall, 0, all around. This is part of the shell of thelamp, and forms a large recess or receptacle at the top, above the gage or center-piece 0, so that in pouring in alcohol there is no danger of overtlow while it is soaking into the asbestos or other material in the lamp. As shown, this wall may be constructed in several ways: In Fig.6 the shell is turned down and terminates in a-lip, 0 all around the center-pieceyin Fig. 7 the wall terminates at the top, 6 instead of being turned down. lamp-cover F. 7
With this stove a boiler, H, is to be used. This boiler has certain peculiarities of construc tion which render it cheap and handy; Its
handles K slip and pass the other, interlocking and being held firmly, and its body L has one of its ends turned upon itself, forming the sockets for the ends of the handles.
No claim is made in thisapplication for the peculiar construction of the handles and boiler, the right to make any such claim being reserved for another application.
The construction describedfurnishes a simple and useful stove.
The standards can be folded, as shown in Fig. 5, and snugly packed away, and the handles K K folded about the boiler.
The lamp is of a size'to fit inside the boiler, and the stove-frame, when folded, has about Upon the wall a is placed the the same area as the boiler, so that they all vided with a straight edge, I), and a curved can be conveniently packed in a box small enough to be placed in an ordinary pocket. A gridiron can also be packed therein and used 5 for cooking, when desired.
Havingdescribed my invention, what Iclaim 1. In a pocket cook-stove, a folding frame provided with the lamp-seats, as set forth. 1o 2. The standards B B B having the seats I), as set forth.
3. The standard B, having the seat 1), proedge, W, as set forth.
4. The standards B B B having the hole 1 a, and the rings 0, in combination with 'the catches D, as setforth.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my ownI affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
