STEAM-RADIATOR.
SPECIFICATION forming part f Letters Patent No. 367,078, dated July 25, 1887.
Application filcd May 27, 1886. Serial No. 203,423. (No model.)
lhereby 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 new and useful improvements in radiators for steam and-hot water, and it has particular reference to that class ofV radiators composed of a number of like sections or loops; and the object of my invention is to improve the means in present use for connecting any desired number of sections into a nest, and to produce at the same time a perfect circulation through 'all the individual loops or Sections composing the radiator; and to this end my invention consists in the improved construction hereinafter described, and shown iu the accompanying drawings, of which-- Fignre 1 is a horizontal central` section through the base of a radiator of my improved construction. Fig. 2 is a Vertical centralsection thereof with 'the bar connecting the sections through the base shown in elovation. Fig. 3 is a Vertical central cross-section through oneof the loops or sections detached. Fig. 4 isa perspective view of the bar which connects the individual loops or sections of the radiators. Fig. 5'is a sectional perspective view of the lower end of one of the radiator loops or Sections. i
It has been common to unite a plurality of radiator-sections by means of tubes passed through the bascs of lthe sections, but such construction did not extend the whole Vertical height of the eyes through theloops, and did not provide for a circulation alternately through the loops. I provide a connecting-bar,which extends the whole vertical'height of the eyes through the bases of the loops, and which divides the base into two steam-spaccs, and said bar is also provided with lateral cut-offs, all as hereinafter set forth.
A are the Sections composing the radiator. They are preferably made in the form of castiron loops, but may be of any other form adapted for this class of radiators.
C are hollow round bosses cast on one of the i small bends of the loops, so as to form cylindrical eyes B, communicating` with both legs v of the loop. These bosses project on each side of the loops and are provided with suitable steam and water tight joints D, all so arranged that when the loops are placed or put together the cylindrical eyes B form a cylindrical steam and water tight base for the radiator, with which all the legs of the loops communicate.
E is a connecting-bar provided at one end with an 'apertured head, F, which forms a tight joint on one end of the base, and with a screw-nipple, G, which projects through the other end of the base and engages with a screW-cap, H, which forms a similar tight joint at the other end of the base. The bar E forms a Vertical diaphragm through the base, so as to cut off communication between the lower ends of the two legs of each loop, with the exception of the restricted communication through the openings a, provided for at the bottom of the base in each loop. The bar E is also provided with the half-circular diaphragms I, which are so arranged that when the bar is in place they form alternatiug transverse cut-offs in the base upon opposite sides of the bar or diaphragm E.
It will be seen that With the loops constructed as described, and with a eonnectingbar of the required length to fit the desired numberiof loops to be connected, the work of mounting a radiator (or dismounting either) is greatly simplified when ,compared with the present mode of connecting the loops together by means of screw-nipples; and, fnrther, the novel and simple way of providing for a circulation by the peculiar construction of the connecting-bar materially reduccs the cost of the radiator.
In practice, the radiator is connected with the steam or hot-water pipcs in the usual manner, the' head F and nipple G being for this purpose provided with suitable screwthreaded apertures leading into the base of the radiator; and, supposing the steam to enter through the aperture in the head F, it will be seen that after passing up through one leg and down the other leg of the first loop, it passes onone side of the diaphragm E into the secoiid loop, and, circulating in the reverse di- IOO reetiou through said loop, it passes on the other' side of the diaphragin Eiuto the third loop, and so on in alternate directions through all the loops until it reaches the exit through the nipple G. The condense, which acouninlates at the bottoin of the base, passes through the openings (t (which may bc provided either' as shown in fnll lines in the drawings, or by slightly cutting away the bar E, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 2,) and finds its exitV along the bottom of the base to the exitpipe.
As the bar E has a fixed position in relation to the base, I prefcrably provide it With a feathcr, Z), which fits into a corresponding recess and prevents said bar from being displaced.
I claiin the bar E as a novel combination of diaphragms for producing the eirculation in the loops irrespective of its additional feature of a conuecting-bar, as other suitable means such as are iu present use may be devised for that purpose; but it is obvious t-hat by eonibining the two features in the mauner desoribed great simplieity is obtained. Vith an even number of loops, as shown in the drawings, the apertures in the head F and nipple G have to-communicate with the base of the radiator upon the same side of the bar E; but if an odd nnmbcrof loops is used said apertures have to be made to communicate with the base upon opposite sides of the bar. A bar of this last description may obviously be used without any latcral diaphragms, as it dividcs the base into induction and eduction sides which communicate with each other through the loops. Other inodifioations in the eirculation of the heating medium through the radiator may be niade by reducing the number of lateral diaphragins. Thus, for instance, if, in Fig. 1, all the lateral diaphragms except theone near-est the eduction side are omitted, the circulation is also established through the loops.
Vhat I claiin as my invention is- 1. A plurality of like loops, each provided with an eye forming a section of the base of the radiator, combined with a bar passing through the base of the radiator and extending the whole Vertical height of said eyes to form a diaphragm through the base, substantially as and for the purpose specitied.
2. A series of like Ioops, each provided with an eye forming a section of the base of the radiator, combined with a connectingbar having apertured ends and passing through the 5.5 base of the radiator for colleetively securing the loops together and extending the whole' Vertical height of the eyes to form a diaphragm, substantially as and for thcpurpose deseribed.
3. A series of likeloops, each provided with fr, an eye forming a section of the base of a radiator, combined with aconneeting-bar passed through the base for collcctively sccu ring the loops together and cxteuding the whole vertiealheightof the said eye to form adiaphragm through the base and provided withtransverse cut-offs, substantially as and for the purpose specified.
4. Aseries of like loops, each provided with au eye forming a section of the base of the ra diator, combined with a bar passing through such base,conneeting such loops together, extcndiug the whole Vertical height of the eye and having an aperture at each end, one communicating' with the steam-space on one side of said loop and the other communicat-ing with the steamspaee on the opposite side of said loops, substantially as specified.
5. A series oflikcloops, each being provided with an eye formiug asection of the base of the 83 radiator, combined with a connecting bar through the base of said radiator, said bar forming, with integral parts of its body, suitable diaphragnis within the base to establish a circulation through the loops, snbstantially 85 as described.
6. In combination with the loops A, provided with bosses O and joints D, arranged to form a cylindrical base conuecting with the legs of theloops, the conneeting-bar E. having aperturcd head F, threaded nipple G, screwcap H, and lateral cnt-offs I, all arranged to operate substantially as describcd.
7. The bar E, formed with apertured ends and lateral cut offs, substantially as (lescribed, and for the purpose specified.
