JACOB PEASE, OF BROGKLYN, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO .VVILLIAM BROOKFIELD, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
G LASS-FU RNACE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 416,703, dated December 3, 1889.
Application filed July 17, 1886. Serial No. 208,271. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, JACOB PEASE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Glass-Furnaces, of which the following is a specification.
This invention has for its objects to provide a novel glass-furnace whereby several persons can work about the same furnace, and to provide a novel arrangement of fines and glassreceiving wells or pockets. These objects I accomplish in the manner and by the construction of parts hereinafter described and claimed, reference being made to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 represents a transverse section-in the plane x 00, Fig. 2, of a furnace embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a central vertical section of the same.
Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.
In the drawings, the letter A designates the walls of a furnace, which are constructed to contain av glass-forming chamber B, a fireplace 0, and a stack D, as usual. In the glassforming chamber B is constructed a circular hearth or basin E, into which the charge is introduced through an opening E, Fig. 1, that can be subsequently closed in the ordinary manner. Above this hearth or basin and closing the glass-forming chamber from the stack is an arch A. Surrounding the hearth or basin and exterior to the walls of the same are a number of Wells or pockets F, which are closed at their tops and bottoms, and each of which is connected with the hearth or basin by a duct or ducts f, extending through the furnace-walls and connecting the respective well and heart-h near their bottoms, so that the level of the molten mass will be the same in both wells and hearth.
In order that the molten mass may not be cooled when in the wells, I lead the furnacegases from the glass-forming chamber around the exterior of the wells, and from thence into I the stack.
In the example shown in the drawings, Fig. 2, fines 9 lead from the glass-forming chamber over the top ,of. the well and connect with vertical fiues 9, Figs. 1 and 2, which cit-end down the back of the well. These flues g communicate with a bottom flue h, Fig. 1, from which in turn lead flues hf, that pass along both sides of the well and are either led directly to the stack above the arch A,
or, as shown, they are received by a common flue H, which leads to the stack above the arch. By this arrangement of fines all the furnace-gases must necessarily pass around the wells before they can pass to thestack,
and as the tines almost surround the wells or pockets said wells or pockets receive all the necessary heat to keep the mass in a molten state. To remove the molten glass from the wells or pockets, I construct tubular mouths f, which lead from the same to the exterior of the furnace. I use tubular months for the reason that it is necessary to cut the same through the flue-spaces.
The advantages of a furnace embodying my construction are that more men can work at one and the same furnace than hitherto and a pure clear glass is produced.
WVhat I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The combination, in a glass-furnace, of a circular hearth or basin E, for receiving the charge, a closed arch A over the hearth or basin, a stack D, located over the arch, a series of glass-working wells F, disposed around charge, a stack D, a series of glass-working wells or pockets F, projecting from and arranged. exterior to the wells of the furnace around the hearth or basin, a duct f for each pocket arranged in the furnace-wall and communicating directly with the basin, the mouths f for removing the molten mass from the pockets, and fines g, extending over the pockets and communicating. with the stack, substantially as described.
3. In a glass-furnace, the combination, with a hearth or basin for receiving the charge, of anumber of wells or pockets connected with IO rounding the Wells or pockets and entering the stack above the arch, substantially as shown and described. I
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and seal in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
