` KITCHEN-RANGE.

specification of Letters Patent No. 3,533, dated April 1o, 1844.

To aZZ whom, 15 muy concern p Be it known that I, JULrUs FINII, ofthe city of Philadelphia, in the State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new` and use-- ful Improvements in the Mann-er of Constructing Cooking-Ranges; `and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof.

In the accompanying drawing, Figure l is a front view of my range, in perspective, and Fig. 2, is a` horizontal section through the middleof the ove-nsrand the tire chainber, showing the relationship between the triangular lire chamber and the ovens, a relationship by which I am` enabled to econo- Inize heat, and to have. a tire back against one side of each or the ovens, and am also enw abled to give a greater depth to one oi my ovensthan could he attained in a range ot the same dimensions if made in theordinary form. Thepeculiar shape `of the front of my range allows also, a more extended space for boilers above the tire-chamber and oven fines, than is admitted in any other of the same width, and it likewise admits of my inclcsing the boiler space by sliding cylindrical doors.

The two ends and the front of my range constitute ve sides of an Octagon, as will be distinctly seen in the plan, Fig. 2.

A, is the tire chamber, which is triangular; B, and C, are two ovens, one of which, B, extends back to a much greater depth than the other, C;'while the latter is as deep as those ordinarily formed in ranges. A triangular plate is made to t into the space, A, over the fire chamber, and this plate has a boiler opening in it, and a cover adapted to it; it is shown at D, Fig. 3. l/Vhen this plate is in place,l it is in the same plane with the top, or boiler, plate, E, E, of the range.

Fig. 4, is a top view of the range immediately under the plate E, E, showing the top plates of the ovens, and the openings into the descendinglflues.

F, F, Fig. l, arethe throats, or openings,

`ii'rorn the tire chamber into the ordinary flue or boiler, space between the plate E, E, an

thetops of the ovens. r

G, Gi, Figs. 2 and et, are descending `fines, down which the heated air from the fire passes after traversing over the` top oven plates B, C. Below the shaded part, H, Fig. 4E, there is an ascendinglue, seen also and the heated air which` has descended through the tlue G, is to ride in H, nearly to its upper end,.before it passes into a iiue space, I, behind the range. There are three such flue spaces I, J, and K, which are partitioned oil' so as n-ot to communicate with 4each other, but the draft from them passes the brick work at the back of the range; those tlues are shown at the top of the range 1n Fig. 1,where they are to communica-te with The `partition wall, L, Il, which forms the front of them, is represented as of brick, but it may be of iron; its lower termination is on the top of the back edge of the plate E; helow this part, the Iiue spaces and fines I, I', J, J, and K, K, unite, as shown in registers, or dampers as in other range lines, s-o that they may be opened, or closed, at pleasure; these are shown in the dottedlines in Fig. l.

Below the ovens B, C, there are flue spaces formed in the ordinary Ina-nner. rIhese may be cleaned out through openings furnished with Stoppers, as at M, Fig. 1.

N, N,.N, are drop doors, of the common kind. Y

The partition plates, a, Z), c, (Z, which bound the vertical flue spaces extend from the boiler plate E, E, to the bottom plate of the range, in the usual manner. Near the bottom of the plate b, there is an opening through it into the ascendinglue, I-I; the shaded part b', may represent the point beneath which said opening is situated, which is in the flue space below the oven. also an opening through the plate o, at its cending ilue space, H, and leading from it into the rear flue space I. 'Ihe draft from the 're, after passing over the top of the down the flue, G, into the flue space under the oven; thence through t-he opening designated by the letter b', into the ascending` flue, H; then through the opening at o', in the upper end of this flue, into the space, I, and the iiue I', its passage through which may be governed at will by the register. There is another opening through the plate @,at its lower end, where it makes apart of at II,\Fig. 2; this flue is closed at its `top H. 1

up through separatel tlues, I', J andK, in-

end c', close below the covering of the as-` oven C, will, under this arrangement, be`

the common` chimney, in the usual manner.

Fig.2. In each of these flues, there are There is the boundary of the Hue space under the oven, B. The place of this opening may be immediately below the shaded part c, as it leads from the lower oven Hue into the space, J, and thence into the escape Hue, J furnished, also, with a register to regulate it. The draft, in this case, is over the oven, B, down the descending Hue G, under the said oven, and through the opening designated by the letter c, as above. Into the third Hue space, K, K, there passes a tube, or hollow trunk, from the ash-pit, below they triangular grate; its direction is shown by the dotted lines c, e. This tube, or trunk, passes through the lower part of the Hue space under the oven, and, being open at both ends, allows a free passage of air from the ash-pit into the Hue space, which carries with it any smoke, or vapor, that may arise from the ash-pit; whenthe register in K', is closed, this draft is arrested. rlhe boiler space I inclose by means of doors, O, O, which are segments of cylinders, and slide in grooves f, f, at their lower edges; at their tops; they are connected to a pin at the center of the circle of which they are segments. At the back part of the recess containing the boilers, there is, below the wall, L, a castiron plate P, P, which incloses the three vertical Hues; this plate is Htted into a groove, and can be taken out at pleasure, thus giving admittance to the Hues for the purpose of cleaning them.

Having thus fully described the manner in which I construct my range, and, also, the particular arrangement of its respective parts, what I claim therein as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

l. The manner in which I have combined and arranged the fire-chamber, A, and the ovens B, and C; the former being triangular in its horizontal sect-ion, and having one of its backs in contact with one side of the oven B, and the other in contact with one side of the oven C; by which arrangement I am enabled, not only to heat said oven directly, but also to give to one of the-m a much greater depth than can be attained in a range of the same length, if made in the usual form.

2. I claim in combination with the foregoing, the particular manner in which I have arranged the Hues of the respective ovens; the draft of that marked C, after passing down the descending Hue, Gr, as-

cending in the Hue I-I, thereby aiding in heating the rear end of the oven B, and, finally, escaping into the Hue space I; the Hue of the oven B, also descending through the Hue G, on one side of it, and escaping into the space J, through an opening herein designated by the letter c.

3. I claim the arranging of the tube, or hollow trunk, for the conveyance of a draft of air from the ash-pit, through the Hue space under the oven, B, and into that designated by the letter K, to be conveyed 0H by the independent flue K.
