ATENT H EAT-RADIATOR.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 399,776, dated March 19, 18819.

Application filed August 13, 1388.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ADAM PEART, of Corning, in the county of Steuben and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Heat-Radiator, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

This invention relates to heat-radiating drums for stoves, furnaces, &c., and has for its object to provide a heat-radiator so 0011- structed that the greatest amount of heat-radiating surface will be obtained in the smallest space and a free circulation of air over the heated surface provided for.

The invention consists in a heat-radiator constructed and arranged as hereinafter described and claimed.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar figures of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.

Figure 1 is a side elevation of the radiator. Fig. 2 is a vertical section thereof on the line y y of Fig. 3, and Fig. 3 is ahorizontal section on the line m of Fig. 1.

In the construction of this invention 1 provide a section of pipe, or, preferably, a drum, 1,with its ends formed with tapered shoulders 2 and end projections, 3, by means of which the drum is secured in place in any part de sired of a pipe leading from a stove or furnace. The drum 1 is preferably formed in two sections, 4 5, connected together in any suitable manner, and, as here shown, by means of the upper end of the lower section, 5, projecting into a shouldered recessed portion, 6, in the lower endof the upper section, 4, and held from turning by a lug, 7, on the lower section, 5, engaging a notch, 8, on the upper section, 4. Each of the sections 4 5 is constructed with transverse air-chambers 9, with openings in the sides of the section, the chambers 9 in the upper section, 4, being located at a suita )le distance from the chambers 9 in the lower section, 5, and connnunieating by means of a connecting-pipe, 1.1. The chambers 9 are made narrow and wedgeshaped, so as to take up little room. l3 y this means a large surface is exposed to the heat passing through drum 1 without taking up much room, and the cold air passing freely serial No. 282,515. (No model.)

through chambers 9 absorbs the heat. The air heated in chambers 9 permitted to pass off by means of an escape-pipe, 12, connected with the chambers 9 in upper section, 4, and projecting through the side of section 4,where it is connected with a pipe, 12,leading to any suitable point. The chambers 9 in the upper section, 4, are preferably located at an angle to the chambers 9 in the lower section, 5, in order to be effectively exposed to the heated air ascending in drum 1. In order to regulate the admission of air through cham-.

bers 9, rotary dampers 13 are provided, encircling the sections 4 5, and provided with opcrating-handles 1.4 and openings 15, adapted to register with the openings '10 in the sides of the sections 4 5. The ends of the dampers 13 abut against circular shoulders 16 011 the sections 4 5.

The opening and closing movement of the dampers 13 is limited by means of a lug, 17, on the dampers located in a slot, 18, in the sections 4 5. \Vhen the dampers 13 are left open, the air in. the room, passing through the chambers 9, becomes heated. The air maybe prevented from passing off through pipe 12 by means of a damper, 19. If the heated air is desired in another room, the dampers 13 should be closed and the damper 19 opened.

20 indicates openings in the lower section, 5, and in lower damper, 13, which register when the damper is closed. By this means air is permitted to enter and pass through chambers 9 in lower and upper sections, 5 4, when the dampers 13 are-closed.

While I have shown and described the drum as made in two sections, it may be made in one or several sections, each containing a series of chambers, 9, connected together.

The chambers 9, while described and shown as wedge-shaped, may be made in any other shape. The dampers 13 may be closed only when the heat is desired in another room. At all other times they should remain open to allow the air in the room to circulate directly through the chambers 9, and, absorbing the heat, to pass freely out and in through the side openings, 10, and the openings in the dampers, thereby allowing a free and open heating-surface to the air in the room.

By means of this invention a heating-drum is provided in which a great amount of heated air is radiated without sacrificing space.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent 1. A heat-radiator consisting of a drum formed in sections having intersecting airchambers in each section transverse thereto and connected together with openings in the sides of the drum-sections, and dampers movable over the air-chamber openings. substantially as described.

2. A heat-radiator consisting of a drum formed in sections having intersecting airchambers in each section transverse thereto, connected together, and having an escapepipe extending out of the drum, with openings in the sides of the drum-sections, and dampers movable over the air-chamber openings, substantially as described.

In a heatradiator, a drum -section, 4, with narrow intersecting air-chambers 9,transverse to the drum-section and located at angles to each other, with openings in the side of the drum-section, a rotary damper, 13, having a handle, 14, and openings 15, registering with openings 10, and an escape-pipe, 12, with damper 19, substantially as described.

4. In a heat-radiator, a drum having a series of narrow intersecting air-chambers transverse thereto and located at angles to each other, with openings in the side of the drum, and dampers for closing the openings, substantially as shown and described.

5. A heatradiator consisting of drum 1, formed in sections 4 5, attached together and having narrow intersecting air-chambers 9 transverse thereto and located at angles to each other, with openings 10 in the side of the drum, and circular rotary dampers 13,With

handle 14 and openings 15, movable over the openings 10, and openings in lower section, 5, and in lower damper, 13, which register with openings 20 in lower section, 5, when the damper 13 is closed, the chambers 9 being connected by pipe 11 and having an escapepipe, 12, with damper 19, substantially as shown and described.
