Description
Sept. 18, 1956 Filed May 4, 1955 B. M. SINGLETON l UNIVERSAL ROOF STACK 2 Sheets-Sheet 1 ATTORNEY Bf @Saw United States Patent O UNIVERSAL ROOF S'IAACK The present invention relates broadly to gaseous fluid discharge apparatus, and in its specific phases it relates more particularly to a roof stack adapted to be mounted on and adjustably t roofs having different pitch angles while'acting as a combined ventilator and chimney.
It i-s frequently necessary to extend the smoke pipe or stack from a heater or the like through ceilings, oors, sidewalls, and more commonly the roof of a building or a house trailer. As some roofs are substantially flat and others pitched at different degrees, it is highly desirable to provide a single construction for connecting the stack or smoke pipe lwith the roof regardless yof moderate variations in the pitch or lack of pitch of the latter, and for ashing around said stack or smoke pipe in a weathertight manner. Several proposals have been made for meeting some phases of this requirement but most `of them have either not been adjustable at all, or have been only adjustable over a narrowpitch range not including at roofs, and all of them have ignored the question of keeping the stack or smoke pipe sufficiently cool in the region of the roof to prevent a serious fire hazard so far as concerns roof stacks of adjustable construction adapting them to fit roofs varying from flat to a moderate pitch. It was a recognition of the-'shortcomings and limitations of such prior constructions which led to the conception and development of the present invention.
To the accomplishment of the foregoing and related ends, the invention, then, consists of the gaseous fluid discharge apparatus hereinafter fully described and particularly pointed out in the claims, the annexed drawings, and the following description setting forth in detail certain means for carrying out the invention, such disclosed means illustrating, however, but several of various ways in which the principle of the invention may be used.
In the annexed drawings:
Figurel is a vertical sectional view showing the invention installed for passing a smoke pipe through a pitched roof and showing in dotted lines the only adjustment required for mounting it on a flat roof.
Figure 2 is a horizontal sectional view on line 2-2 of Figure l, looking in the direction of the arrows, but with Y the flange of Figure l adjusted to the d-otted line position.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view showing a slight modification.
Preferences in the stack construction have been disclosed in the drawings and will be rather specifically described, but it is to be understood that some variations may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as set forth. Also, while the invention will be described for its primary use, in connection with a smoke pipe extending through a roof, it is to be understood that it can be used to advantage with a pipe extend- Accordingly among the objects of the present invention is the provision of a new and improved construction which is readily usable on any roof regardless of moderate pitch or lack of pitch of same and provides for jacketing the stack or smoke pipe with cooling air immediately above and below the roof, as well as through same, to eliminate any tire hazard.
Another object'of the present invention is to provide for continuous discharge of heated air from, and continuous'adrnission of 'relatively' cool air into the stack jacket to overcome all possibility of the cooling air in the jacket becoming so overheated as to be ineffective as a safeguard against tire.
'Another object of the invention is to provide a moderate length jacket sleeve extending downward from the body of the stack jacket substantially concentric with the chimney 'so .that-hot `products of combustion passing up the latter. will induce, through radiated heat, a more rapid Ventilating ow of cooling air through the stack jacket and cnt of theV outlet ,above the roof line to drastically Vminirnize any danger of overheating the Vroof panel.
,A further object is to provide a novel construction which may be easily installed on a building or housetrailer without specially skilled workmen, yet will be highlyl effective and cannot become loose due to wind shaking yor vibration due to the movement of the trailer over the road. j
VYet another object is to provide a novel construction which may be'easily and inexpensively manufactured and may therefore be profitably marketed at a reasonable price.
Still kfurther objects and advantages of the invention will appear as the description proceeds.
ing through a oor, ceiling, partition or side wall. The word roof is not therefore to be considered as limiting, nor are such relative terms as upper and lower.
A body member having a spherical surface portion, Ahereinafter referred to as hollow ball 5, is provided with van opening 6 in its top and an opening 6a in its bottom, said openings being surrounded by cylindrical flanges 7 and 7a respectively, which are integral with said hollow ball 5. Within the connes of these ilanges 7 and 7a and concentric with the latter, are two cylindrical collars 8 and 8a respectively, said collars being of much less diameter Vthan said flanges to provide one space 9 between flange 7 and collar 8 and another space 9a between flange 7a and collar 8a. The flanges 7 and 7a are rigidly connected to the collars 8 and 8a by radial webs or spider arms 10 and 10a respectively.
The hollow ball 5 is preferably formed from an upper half 5a and a lower half 5b connected by a spherical -surface splice ring 11 friction-fitted tightly into the contiguous portions of said halves, as shown in Figure l. However, if desired, these contiguous portions may be thickened as shown in Figure 3 and provided with registering grooves 12 to frictionally receive a cylindrical splice ring 11a. Either construction provides a tight leak-proof joint between the two ball halves 5a and Sb. These halves, plus the flanges, webs and collars connected therewith form two identical units which may be readily die-cast in the same mould, or in large-scale production, in duplicate moulds, thus greatly lessening the expense for moulding equipment.
A smoke pipe section 13 extends through the collars S and 8a and diametrically through the hollow ball 5. This smoke pipe section 13 is secured to the collars 8 and 8a for instance with screws 14 which may be of the selftapping type to cut their own screw threads through said smoke pipe section. This pipe section therefore further ties the two ball sections S and Sa tightly together and obviates any possible danger of the joint between said sections opening to any extent which would permit leakage.
The smoke pipe section 13 extends a short distance above the upper ball section 5a and carries a cowl flange 15, said cowl flange having a peripheral skirt 16 surrounding and outwardly spaced from the flange 7, thus permitting air to escape through the space 9 yet excluding rain, snow, etc. The cowl flange 15 is secured Patented sept. 1s, 1956 to the smoke pipe section '13"inany suitable way. As shown, it is provided with a collar flange 17 surrounding the smoke pipe section 13, said collar flange and smoke pipe section being connected by forming them with interfitting deformed portions 1S and 19. The smoke pipe section 13 is engageable at its upper end with a smoke discharging and weather excluding hood 2f) of conventional or other adequate construction.
A roof flange 21 snugly and weather-tightly surrounds the ballS and is readily adjustable to lie upon roof 22, whether the latter beilat or pitched at any moderate angle. This roof flange 21 is formed from two duplicate sections 21a and 2lb secured together by threaded members 23, some or all of which may be in the form of screws which are long enough to also secure the flange to the roof. The upper flange section 21a has an upstanding flange 21C surrounding the ball 5, the free edge of said flange 21C being bent inwardly at 21d for weathertight contact with said ball. The lower flange section 2lb is providedwith a corresponding but downwardly projecting flange 21e, the free edge of which is bent inwardly at 21f for tight contact with the ball 5. When assembling the roof flange 21 around the ball 5, the inwardly bent flange portions 21d and 21f contact with said ball when the flange sections 21a and 2lb are about M1" apart. Therefore, when the screws 23 are tightened to draw the sections 21a and 2lb together and secure the roof flange 21 to the roof, the aforesaid inwardly bent portions 2id and 21f are forced into continuous extremely tight contact with the ball 5, thus overcoming any danger of water entering between the roof flange and the ball, and at the same time holding the halves 5a and SI1 of ball 5 from separating. To prevent any water from possibly entering between the roof flange 2l and the roof 22 either a gasket (not shown) or a plastic roofing cement (not shown) may be provided between said flange and roof.
Preferably a jacket sleeve 24 surrounds the smoke pipe section 13 below the ball 5 and is secured to the flange 7a by one or more sccrews 25. The lower end of this jacket sleeve 24 is open to the building or house trailer for air admission and air inlet openings 26 may also be formed in said jacket sleeve adjacent flange 7a for further increase in the rate of air flow. Thus, cooling air will enter the hollow ball 5 through the space 9a and will jacket the smoke pipe section 13 to keep the heat away from the roof 22, and as this air is heated it escapes through the space 9 and then out from in under the cowl flange 15. As long as the jacketing air is being heated by the smoke pipe section 13, there is a constant air ow through the ball 5 outside of smoke pipe section 13, keeping this ball at a safe temperature and thus obviating any fire hazard, even if said smoke pipe should become seriously overheated. However, for those purchasers in the category of the burned child who really fears fire, an abestos coating (not shown) may be-sprayed onto the interior surface of the ball to further insulate same and retard heat flow to the roof panel 22.
For house trailers utilizing a heating stove with a 4 diameter smoke pipe 13, a convenient diameter of hollow ball 5 is 8, which permits the present assembly to fit all or substantially all roof pitches in common use. By increasing the diameter of this ball still steeper roof pitches can be accommodated while still further minimizing the fire hazard in View of the greater air space in the hollow ball.
From the above detailed description of the roof stack and the mounting of same, it is believed that its construction, use, and operation will at once be apparent, including the variations involved in the use of the alternate forms of the splice ring 11 or 11a. It is also to be noted that by making ball 5 of a larger diameter without increasing the diameter of smoke pipe 13, this will increase the maximum roof pitch to which the roof stack can be fitted with smoke pipe 13 remaining in vertical position.
