STOVE.

STECIPTGATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 339,355, dated April 6, 1886.

Application filed August '26, 1885. Serial No. 175,362. (No model.)

to stove which may be of sufficient capacity to furnish heat for two or more rooms without furnishing an excess of heat in the room in which said stove may be placed.

My invention consists in details of construcrstion described below, and pointed out in the claims.

In the accompanying drawi11gs,forming part of this specification, Figure l is a side view, partly in broken section, chiefly showing the go arrangement of the radiating-cylinder, the

drums, the base-plate, and the ash-box, and the manner of disposing of the heated air at the top of the stove. Fig. 2 is a detail view, partly in broken section, showing the radiating-eylinder, the ash-box, and the baseplate. Fig. 3 is a detached plan view of the base-plate, having the ash-chamber provided with a dump jug-grate in position thereon. Fig. 4 is a plan view of the top plate of my improved stove,

30 showing holes in which the stay-rods are placed. Fig. 5 is a detail view, partiy in broken section, of the upper part ofthe stove.

Similar reference letters indicate ciirresponding parts throughout the several views.

The base'plate A is supported by ordinary feet and may be made of any ornamental design. Upon its center rests the aslrchamber B. This is preferably cast in one piece, and a little oblong in form from front to back, the

40 back being semicircular and the front curvilinear to correspond with the outer cylinder of the stove. Concentric with the back of the aslrchambcrB, and in the top thereof,is formed an opening, b,into which the grate O is placed 4 5 and supported by asuitable shaking and dump ing bar, 0, which is hung in bearings formed in the front and back of said ashchamber, just below the top thereof.

The ash-chamber may be formed open at the bottom and the base-plate serve for its bottom,

or it maybe provided with a bottom, b,as seen in the drawings. Upon the top of this ash-chamber rests the fire-brick orliningD for the stove, and surrounding this lining is the radiatingcylinder E, provided in front with an opening for the entrance of fuel, located just above the lining D, at the back with an opening for a smoke-pipe, and having a cover or top plate, F. This cylinder E at its lower end in front terminates at the top of the ash-ehamber B, where it is riveted or otherwise secured to a flange, b )rojecting upward from said ashchamber. The back part of said cylinder extends down to the baseplate A, the sides of this extension being secured by stove-bolts to the vertical sides of the ash-chamber, as seen in Fig. 2.

Surrounding the ash-chamber and the cylinder E is a drum, G, of three inches (more or less) larger diameter than said radiating-cylinder E. This latter drum G exten ds from the base A to an outer top plate, H. An exterior drum, I, of two inches (more or less) larger diameter than the said drum G-,is placed over all, and extends from the base'plate to the outer top plate, H, and stay-rods J are provided for securing said top plate and said exterior drums to the baseplate A. Like stayrods may also be used for staying the plate F. There may be two or more of these stay-rods J, which pass through the holes h in the top plate, H, thence between the cylinder E and drum G, and through the holes a in the baseplate A, where they may be provided with 'a thread and author clamping the parts securely together. Annular ridges a a? are provided on the base-plate A for steadying,respective] y, the drums G I, the tops of which are held in their respective places by the flanges h 71 formed upon the under side of the outer top plate, H.

The base-plate A is perforated with suitable openings, a (4*, for the admission of cool air into the chambers formed by the drums GI- e., the openings at admitting air to the drum G and the openings a connecting with the drum I.

The drum G- is provided with openings g near its top, for the escape or discharge of the air circulatin through the drum 1.

A casing, In, is provided as a incl-passage through the several cylinders to the fire-pot.

This is provided with flanges 7- 75,01? proper form to fit the cylinders E I, respectively, to which they may be riveted or otherwise secured.

Ashort pipe, L, passing through the several cylinders, may be secured to the inner and outer cylinder by suitable flanges, Z Z, cast thereon, and its outer end be adapted to receive an ordinary sheet-iron smoke-pipe, M, provided with a damper, m.

The outer top plate, H, is provided with an opening, hflfordischarging the air circulating through the cylinders G I.

The top plate, F, may have a central opening to which may be connected a smoke-pipe, N, in place of discharging the products of combustion at the back of the stove through a pipe, M, which in the latter case may be dispensed with.

lVhen this stove is in operation, the air entering the opening at of thebase-plate A passes upward through the cylinder I (becoming more or less heated during its progress) and through the openings g, near the top of the cylinder G, where it mingles with the air passing out from the latter cylinder. All of said air passing directly over the inner top plate, F, of the radiatingcylinder E becomes thoroughly heated before escaping through the opening If If desired, this of the outer top plate, H.

opening h may connect with an air conductor or pipe, 0, for conducting the heated air to an apartment overhead, and a suitable slide, 0, may be provided in this pipe for the purpose of letting some of this heated air out into the apartment in which the stove is placed, if at any time required.

Having described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, 1s

1. The combination, with the base-plate A, having perforations a m of the ash-box B,the lining D, supported on said ash-box, the radiating-cylinder E, having plate F, the drum G, perforated eircumferentially at g g, the drum I, and the top plate, H, as and for the purpose set forth.

2. The combination of the base and fire-pot of a stove with cylinder-E, having plate F and smoke-pipe N, the drum G, perforated at gg, the drum I, the top plate, H, and the air-pipe 0, having slide' 0, as set forth.

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

MATTHEW VAN VORMER.
