STOVE- HOOD.

SPECIFICATIGN forming part of Letters Patent No. 310,398, dated January 6, 1885.

Application filed June 26, 1884. (No model.)

To @ZZ whom, it may concern:

Be it known that I, Asa S. FrsK, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Stevensville, in the county of Bradford and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stove-Hoods; and Idohereby declare the following to be afull, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters or 'gures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

My invention relates to attachments for stoves; and it consists in the improvements hereinafter fully described and set forth, whereby a device is provided that may be readily attached and connected to astove-pipe, so as to be capable of conveying from the stove into the said pipe the coal and other noxious gases, and kat the same time capable of being adjusted out of the way when not in use.

The invention further contemplates theprovision of a supporting-shelf in connection with the attachment. i

In the accompanying drawings, forming p art of this specification, Figure lis a perspective view illustrating a stove and stove-pipe and improved attachment in connection therewith. Fig. 2 is a centra-l sectional view of Fig. l.

The attachment consists,primarily, of an inclined pipe, A, the upper end of which intersects and communicates with the stove-pipe B, the lower end of said pipe Aterminating in a flaring mouth or funnel, a.. A11 opening, b, is formed in the under sido ofthe pipe A, adjacent to the funnel a, and from said pipe at the point of said opening depends avertical pipesection, C.' This pipe-section C' is supported and braced relative to the stove-pipe B by means of two bands, c, located, respectively, near the upper and lower portions of the pipe G,each of said bands consisting of a smallloop, which embraces the said section C, and a large loop which encircles the stove-pipe B, the parts of the said bands being rigidly secured by means of rivets d. A second vertical pipesection, D, plays snugly within the section C, and has connected to it at its lower end a funnel or conical section, E, the lower larger end of which is secured to the top of a hood, F, at the point of an opening therein. The said hood F consists of a cap or shell, which is adapted to cover the upper portion or top of the stove, and has rear side wings, c, and a rear depending portion, f, which are respectively adapted to embrace a portion ofthe side and rear of the stove, thereby preventing lateral displacement of said hoodF with respect 'to the stove, and at the same time presenting a shield or guard, which prevents the cooking or gaseous fumes from passing beneath the rear of said hood, and insuring the proper draft from the front of said hood up through the conical pipe-section E. A pan, G, is secured on the top of the hood F, as illustrated. It is pierced by the conical section E, and is provided witha series of peiforatio1is,g. The rear side of the pan is extended vertically to form a wall, 7i, which is braced with respect to the pan-bottom by means of diagonal braces z'. Two curved bands, j, are secured to the rear face ofthe wall l1, as illustrated,and their free ends are bent parallel with each other and perforated for the passage of a thumb-screw,

which serves to clamp said sections rigidly around the pipe B. A coiled spring, Z, embraces the pipe B, and is secured at its ends centrally to the lower portion of a depending section, f, of the hood. A rod, m, isconnccted at its lower end to the coiled spring Z,whiie its upper end is looped to embrace the threaded portion of a nut, L', between the parallel portions ofthe clamp-sectionsj. This arrangement presents a support below the stove-top for the hood, the adoption of the coiled spring enabling the same to be readily distended in moving the same upon the stove-pipe in adjusting the hood. A damper, n, is located at the bottom of the pipe-section D, and serves to interrupt the draft passing from under the hood F to the stove-pipe B. Aninclined section, o, is located in the pipe A at one side of the opening b, and serves to properly direct the fumes and gases passing from the hood into the pipe B.

It will be apparent that the section D and the hood F, together with its clamp and coiled spring, may be adjusted on the pipe B so as to cover and set close on the top ofthe stove, so as to carry the gas and fumes up into the pipe IOO B, such draft being promoted by reason of air passing through funnel a and pipeA to the stove-pipe B. It will be further obvious that when the hood F rests upon the top of the stove, as before explained, it will become highly heated, and articles may be placed on the pan or shelf G and warmed.

lVhen it is not desired to use the hood, the pipe D can be shoved into the pipe-section C, thereby elevating the hood F and pan G, which can in such elevated position be utilized as a pipe-shelf.

I am aware of theexpired patent granted to Daball, September 26,1835,forstove-hoods, and of the features of construction set forth therein; I therefore make no broad claim to any of such features.

I claiml. The combination, in a stove attachment, of a pipe-section adapted for attachment to the upper portion ofthe stove-pipe. and provided at its free end with a funnel or flaring mouth, a vertical pipe-section depending` from said first-mentioned pipe-section and having devices for the attachment of the same to the stove-pipe, a second pipe-section sliding in said rst vertical section and adjustably secured to the stove-pipe and provided at its lower end with a hood or cap, substantially as set forth.

2. The combination, in a stove attachment, of an inclined pipe-section, A, adapted for attachment to the upper portion of the stovepipe, a vertical pipe-section depending from the saine and having devices for its attachment to the stove-pipe, and a pipe-section, D, slidingin said vertical section and carrying a combined hood and shelf at its lower end, substantially as set forth.

The combination, in astove attachment, of an inclined section, A, adapted for attachment to the upper portion of the stove-pipe, a section, C, depending from said section A and carrying devices for its attachment to the said stove-pipe, and a hood, F, located at the lower portion of a section, D, sliding in the section G, the said hood bei-ng provided with side and rear wings, ef, substantially as set forth.

4. The combination, in a stove attachment, of an inclined pipe,A, adapted for connection to the stove-pipe, a section,G, depending from the pipe A and carrying devices for its attachment to said stove-pipe, asection, D, sliding in said section C and carrying a hood, F, at its lower portion, an adjustable clamp for the upper portion of the hood, and a spiral spring embracing the lower portion ofthe stove-pipe and secured to the lower portion of the hood, substantially as set forth.

5. The combination, in astove attaclnnent, of an inclined pipe-section adapted for attachment to the upper portion of the stove-pipe, and provided at one end with a funnel or flaring mouth, a vertical pipe, C, communieating with and depending from said pipesection, a pipe, D, playing in said pipe C and carrying a hood at its lower end, and an inclined section, o, 'located in the inclined pipesection at one side of the point at which the pipe C connects, substantially as set forth.

In testimony whereof I aiiix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
