J. HBSS. REFRIGERATOR ROOM.
Patented Oct. 2, 1883.
,Truhen/U@ PATENT EETcE.
` JUIJIUS HESS, OF DETROIT, IVIICHIGr/XN.
mac-RleEFzA'roR-Root/i.`
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 285,893, dated October 2, 1883.
Application filed May 10, 1883. (No model.)
To all whom. it may concer/L.'
Be it known that I, JULIUs HEss, of Detroit, in the county of Vayne and State of Michigan, have invented new and useful Improvements in Refrigerator-Rooms; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
This invention relates to improvements in the construction of refrigerating-roomsg and it consists in the method and devices hereinafter described for holding and securing refrigcrator boxes or tanks, with their drippans, in place without incumbering the space underneath and without interfering with the proper action of the air-currents, which must have free access to their cooling-surfaces.
In the drawings my method of supporting such tanks is illustrated on two large refrigerating-tanks ot' what is called the Davis patent.77 They are arranged parallel to each other and near the ceiling of a room which is destined to form. a large refrigerator.
Figure l is an end view of the two tanks with their supporting devices. Fig. 2 is a side elevation. Fig. 3 is an elevation of the supporting-shoe. Fig. 4 is a plan thereof.
Fig. 5 is a cross-section on line x, Fig. Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the iron sockcts used to secure the ends of the straight T- iron bars to theceiling. Fig. 7 is a similar view of the sockets employed to secure the ends ofthe curved iron bars to the ridge-piece.
In the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specication, A A are two refrigerator-tanks of known construction, and
l which are intended to forni the refrigerating medium for producing the desired temperature in the cooling-chamber B. The best position for these tanks for refrigerating purposes is to place them close to the ceiling of the room, which is a well-known practice, and I have devised the following simple way for doing this without incumbering the space underneath, which is desired to be used to its full extent for the storage of the articles to be refrigerated. Each tank is supported upon its two lower ends by a'series of-cast-iron shoes,
C, which are so formed upon their upper faces as to form sockets, into which the foot of the refrigerating-tank and the ends of the iron supports are stepped, without any necessity for the use of bolts. Upon their lower ends these shoes, which are preferably made of castiron, are adapted to straddle the girders D, which are in turn supported upon columns E. Vhcre two adjacent tanks meet, the girders are also supported by a single column or row of columns through the medium of a crosspiece, F, which is firmly held in position upon its column by brackets a. To support the sides and bottom of the refrigerating-tank, I use ordinary T-bars, which at one end are secured in the sockets ol' the shoe. The shoes have a central opening, G, of proper size, to receive and support a drip-pan, H, for the collection of the water of condensation.
'Inthe particular case depicted in the drawings, where thc refrigerator-tank is of the pattern known as the Davis Refrigerating- Tank, I have adjusted the details as follows:
The shoe C (shown in Figs. 3, ll, and 5) has on top the depression or socket b, into which the foot ol" the tank fits, resting upon the bridge c. i e
d and c are sockets for the supporting-bars I and J.
G- is an opening through the shoe for the admission and support ot' the drip-pan H.
fis the bottom of the shoe, which, in conjunction with the lugs g, forms a saddle for its proper support upon the girder D.
h are shields intended to throw the drip from the sides of the tank which happens to collect upon the top ofthe shoe into the drippan.
t' are little notches intended to properly guide the drip onto the shields h. The supporting-bars I are at their upper ends secured to the ceiling of the room by means of sockets K, (shown in Fig. 6,) and the curved ribs J, which support the bottom, are 'fitted with sockets L, which are secured to a ridge-piece, M, as shown in Figs. l and 7.
That I claim my invention isl, The method herein described for constructing refrigerator-rooms, consisting in supporting the tanks upon columns arranged in supporting T-ron, :in combination with an single rows and topped with one 01 two paralntelo1 opening for the support of the drjp- 1o 161 grders,whch support ay series of shoes, into pim, substantially as Spooed.
which the foot of the refrigeratng-tanks and 5 the foot of all supporting-bars are stepped subi JULIUS HESS- stantially as and for the purpose described. Vnesses:
2. A supporting-shoe containing sockets for H. S. SPRAGUE vthe Support of the refrigerating-tank and the A E. SOULLY. 'j
