UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
THOMAS BYRNE, OF BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA.
REFRIGERATOR.
Specification of Letters Patent No. 30,461, dated October 23, 1860.
To @ZZ whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THOMAS BYRNE, of Baton Rouge, in the parish of East Baton Rouge and State of Louisiana, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Refrigerators; andI do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description oi' the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this speciiication, in whichM Figure l, represents a perspective view, and Fig. 2, a vertical section of a refrigerator provided with my improvements i'for cooling and creating a current of air.
Similar letters ot' reference, in both ligures, indicate corresponding parts.
The nature of my invention consists in a pipe or pipes enveloped with cloth or any fibrous substance in combination with a water reservoir for keeping the cloth moist and with a refrigerator or other closed room in which a current of cool air is to be created, as hereinafter described.
To enable others, skilled in the art, to make and use my invention, l will proceed to describe its construction and operation` The drawings represent a pipe A, enveloped with cloth F, and leading into a refrigerator. But suoli ay pipe or pipes may be connected with any other closed room, dwelling etc. wherein it is desired to cool the air without the application of ice and create a current of air.
The pipe A, is provided with a Haring collar D. near its upper end provided with holes E, around its circumference. The covering of cloth reaches above said holes so as to close them up.
The upper end of the tube A, is provided with a number of holes I, and a water reservoir B, is placed on top of it.
On filling the reservoir,` the water passes from it through hole C, near its bottom into the funnel shaped space formed b v the flaring collar D. The water accumulating in said funnel communicates through the holes E, with the cloth and gradually penetrates and keeps wet the whole of the cloth surrounding the pipe A. As the water with which the cloth is saturated, constantly evaporates the air in the pipe is kept at a low temperature, and as it communicates with a space G, in the refrigerator or other room to be kept cool, it serves to cool the air in said space.
The curved pipe H, which enters in at the bottom of G, is to carry ott' any moisture of the atmosphere that may condense on the inside of A, and said pipe H, is curved in order to hold sullicient water to prevent the cold air in G, from passing out at H, for said cold air is intended to pass up through G, and out at the cover or lid of G, which is not to be made air-tight.
In all other refrigerators, the cooling department and the department where the cool air is used, are aboutl the same height and as soon as the air in both departments will come to the same temperature, the specific gravity and the height of the columns of air in each department being the same, they will balance each other. No current of air can pass through and the impure air will remain in such refrigerators. It is in this important arrangement, that my invention is a great improvement over others, for the pipe or pipes for cooling the air can be made several times the height oit the refrigerator or room in which the cool air is to be used, and as a long column of cool air will overbalance a short one, a const-ant current will pass down through A, and up through G, escaping at the top of G, thereby constantly supplying ;tresh cool air and carrying off all odor.
lVhat I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is*
The arrangement of a pipe A, which is higher than the refrigerator, and is enveloped with cloth or any fibrous substance F and has a water reservoir B, C on its upper end, and a drip funnel D, E, encircling itin combination with a refrigerator G, in the manner and for the purposes herein de scribed.
THOS. BYRNE.
