' JOHN H, KEYSER, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
RECESS SUMMER- PIECE FOR STOVES.
srncrrrcnrron forming part of Letters Patent No. 4oo,es9, dated April 2, 1889.
Application filed October 8, 1888.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JOHN H. KEYSER, a citizen of the United States, residing at New .York, in the county of New York and State to make and use the same.
The object of my invention is to provide a novel style of fire-place recess summer piece, hood, or cell adapted for the reception of a stove as a substitute for a coal-grate, all of which, except its finishing frame-piece, may
have been removed from the fire-place, said summer-piece being furnished with a stovepipe collar, to which the stove may be connected, and with a reducible flange 0r rim of sheet-iron, by which it can by fitted to difierent shapes and sizes of fire-places.
The invention enables the householder to economize the room which the stove would require if the stove were set entirely outside the fire-place, and at the same time aids the efliciency of the stove for reflecting heat, while the cost of fitting the same to a fireplace is very slight, and thus householders at a small cost can readily have a stove set in a fire-place as a substitute for a removed grate, and when necessary have the stove and its summer-piece removed and the grate and its attachments readjusted to the fire-place and the finishing frame-piece of said grate, which is already in place.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective View of my improved recess summer-piece for stoves. Fig. 2 is a front view showing the frame piece of a fire-place with a stove inserted within the same and into the fire-place, the stove being shown slightly in'perspective. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal vertical section of a fire-place with my invention and a stove applied therein, and Fig. 4 is a horizontal section of a fire-place and the summer-piece on a line below the cap portion of the summerpiece.
A indicates my improved recess summer piece, hood, or cell forstoves, the same con- Serial No. 287,469. (No model.)
sisting of an arching and concave cast-metal cap portion, B, surmounting a curved vertical sheet-iron body portion, a, which is somewhat in form of a half-cylinder from its upper edge, a, to its lower edge, a The cap portion B extends down to the hearth of the fire-place in the form of an open or skeleton frame, a a said frame being cast with it and formed with a right-angular bolting or riveting flange, e, at its outer edges, which flange is continued around the cap portion and also as a stiffener simply around the lower tiepiece, a of the frame.
To the skeleton frame a a the curved body portion at is bolted or riveted in the manner presently described. The said body portion a is formed with right-angular flanges or rims e, of considerably greater width than the space which at any time may exist between the fire-place jalnbs and the edges of the summer-piece A, and similar sheet-iron flanges or rims, lettered e, to those e on the body portion a. are bolted or riveted upon the flanged edge of the cap portion B. These latter flanges are also of considerably greater width than any space which may exist between the arch or bridge of the fire-place and the summer-piece. Through the above-mentioned flanges or rims and the flanges of the skeleton frame a a, as well as the lower and upper edges of the curved body portion a and the lower edge of the capportion B, bolts or rivets a a a are passed, and thus the cap and body portion are firmly united together.
The important purpose of the flanges or rims of the curved body and the cap portions will be presently described. The cap portion B is cast in concave form to exactly correspond with the upper edge, a, of the body portion a, while above said edge it is made in arch or hood form, as shown, so as to form a complete cap or cover for the chamber of the body portion a, as shown in Figs. 1 and 3, and by this construction it is also rendered, capable of serving as a reflector to throw the heat of the stove C out into the room when the stove and summer-piece are in place, as indi-' when the stove is in place, as shown. To the rear side of the cap and coinciding with the collar (1 another collar, (1 of angular or curved form, is bolted, this serving to direct the products of combustion upward into the draft-flue D of the chimney D, as shown, and when desirable as a means of attachment for a hot-air pipe. The horizontal extension of the body and cap portions of the summerpiece into the fire-place are preferably not made as great as the horizontal area of the recess of the fire-place, in order to haveavertical space or chamber, F, between the back of the summer-piece and the back wall of the fire-place, as illustrated. By such construction and arrangement room is afforded for employing the back upturned collar, (1 and the section of stove-pipe for increasing or directing the draft up the chimney.
Referring to the description of the sheet iron flanges or rims e, I will now set forth their great utility. These flanges or rims, by
being made of much greater width than the Space between the walls of the fire-place and the cap and body portions of the summerpiece, and constructed of thin metalas, for instance, sheet-iron, or of other suitable material similar in thickness to sheet-iron-can with the tinners shears be reduced in width and brought to a shape suited to a recess of either a circular, oval, or square fire-place, and
thus when a sum mer-pieee of given size and shape is carried to a dwelling with all its parts bolted together the workman will not be obliged, as is often the case, to return to the shop for another summer-piece because the 5 one at hand does not fit or suit, being either too small or too large, or adapted for a square instead of an oval or rounded fire-place. On the contrary, he will simply be obliged to clip off with the shears the outer edges of the sheet-iron flanges or rims e until they are brought to the proper size and form to fit a given style of grate or finishing frame, A, which has been left in its place on the removal of the grate. In this manner I am enabled to make provision for supplying the trade with summer-pieces having reducible sheet-metal flanges or rims, and which can in a very short time and at little expense be adapted for fire-places already furnished with grate-frames or finishing-pieces A, thus adapting fire-places previously used with grates for the reception of a stove, as C, and
l \Vhat I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l 1. The summer piece, hood, or cell A for a l stove, comprising the cast-iron cap portion B, l of arched and concave form, skeleton frame a a bolting-flange e, inner stove-pipe collar, 61, and curved sheet-iron body portion a, bolted to the skeleton frame of the cap portion, substantially as described.
2. The summer-piece A for a stove, comprising cap portion B, skeleton frame a, a curved body portion a, flange e, inner collar, d, and sheet-metal reducible flange or rim 6', bolted to the flange e, substantially as and for the purpose described.
3. The summerpiece A, comprising the cast-iron cap portion B, of arched and concave form, skeleton frame a a the curved body portion a, the inner stove-pipe collar, d, cast on the cap portion, the outer upturned collar, d connected to the castiron cap portion, the bolting-flange e, and the sheet-metal reducible flange e, substantially as and for the purpose described.
at. The summer-piece A for a stove, comprising the skeleton frame a a, cast-iron cap portion B, and body portion a, both made of less horizontal extension than the recess of the fire-place and provided with collars (l (Z flange e, and reducible sheet-metal flange or rim e, substantially as and for the purpose described. i 5. The summer-piece A for a stove,comprising the cast-iron cap portion B and body portion a, and skeleton frame a a, said portions B and a being both made of less horizontal 5 extension than the recess of the fire-place and provided with collars d d and flange 6, substantially as and for the purpose described.
6. A summer-piece for a stove, having its curved sheet-metal body portion (1 provided with reducible flanges which are of metal homogeneous therewith and made in one piece, and applied in combination with an arched cap portion forming an extension of the body portion, substantially as described.
7. A summer-piece for a stove, having its arched cap portion B, its inner collar, and its skeleton frame of homogeneous metal and made in one piece, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
JOHN II. KEYSER.
saving the expense of new finishing-frame pieces.
I do not claim herein the stove shown, as I intend applying for a separate patent therefor. i
