ANGUS K. CAMPBELL, OF NEWTON, IOWA.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 275,585, dated April 10, 1883.
Application filed September 30, 1882. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ANGUS K. CAMPBELL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Newton, in the county of Jasper and State of Iowa, have invented a new and valuable Improvement in Methods of Heating Houses, &c.
and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the construction and operation of the same, reference being bad to the annexed drawing, making a part of this specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon.
Thefigureofthedrawingisasectional view of a dwelling with my apparatus applied thereto.
This invention has relation to an improvement on the means for heating and ventilating houses described in the specification attached to Letters Patent No. 230,237, granted to me on the 20th day of July, 1880.
The objects designed to be attained by the present invention refer to the savingof fuel, to securing a constantly-moistened air, to the prevention of overheated air, and to the maintenance of a constant temperature.
In carrying out this invention a heatingroom, A, is designed to be built in the basement or on the first floor of the house. This room may vary in size somewhat, but for ordinary purposes may be made six feet wide by eight or ten feet long with excellent results. Within this heating-room is placed the furnace or heater B, which may be of any suitable character-for instance, a steam-heater, hotwater heater, furnace, or other heat-generator. The heater is considerably smaller than the heating-room in which it is placed, the walls of said room being not designed to act as a close jacket around the heater, but being sufficiently distant therefrom to avoid the power: ful effect of the radiation.
O 0 represent dues or ducts which lead from the floors of the apartments to be warmed and ventilated down to the heating-room 'A\ These fines are designed to discharge the air drawn from the lower portions of the rooms above into the lower part of the heating-room,
D D represent ventilating-fines, which are located with their mouths opening at or near the bottom of the heating-room, whence they conduct the air which lies lowermost in the heating-room into the heater and smoke-fines, thus drawing off a sufficient quantity of air to secure the purification of that which passes through the heating-room. Any accumulation of foul air is effectually disposed of through the action of the heater and smoke-dues.
A ventilating-pipe, E, extending to the outside atmosphere, admits into the heating-room a supply of fresh air at a point or points where it will be immediately heated and pass into the rooms to be warmed, the supply being regulated by dampers under the control of the occupants.
Warm-air ducts F lead from the top of the heating-room to the apartments to be warmed.
Within the heating-room is placed in suitable reservoirs, G, a considerable quantity of water, ordinarily from twenty to thirty cubic feet. The reservoirs or receptacles G are constructed with ample radiating-surface, and
the water is designed to be heated by the fire of the heater to 175 or 200 of Fahrenheit. The water-battery is constructed so that a constant circulation of water is maintained therein, the surface of the water being exposed sufiiciently to moisten the air of the building while the same is passing through the heating-room. Valves or adjustable covers for .the openings of the water-battery may be provided, so that the exposure of water-surface may be under the control of the occupants of the house. The heating-room is designed to be air-tight at all points, with the exception of the tines and ducts described, which form its members, whereby it is enabled to maintain a constant circulation of warmed and ventilated and purified air throughout the house. The movement is constant so long as the heater is in operation. The air is maintained in a suitable moist condition for breathing and at a constant temperature.
