.CAR-HEATING SYSTEM.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 417,391, datedDecember 17, 1889.
VApplication filed November 14, 1888. Serial No. 290,839. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES I.. KLINE, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain newand useful Improvements in Oar-Heating Systems; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same. V
The object of my invention is broadly to provide means for heating and Ventilating railway-cars. In carrying out this object I employ pipes which run through the cars to be heated, and are connected with suitable valves and radiators, the pipes being passed through the iire-boX of the locomotive and being joined with blowers which pump the heated air through them. Incidentally, therefore, my invention is concerned with providing means for protecting the pipes in the tire-box, and with various other details, which will be fully explained hereinafter.
My invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which@l Figure 1 is` a plan. of my heating system with skeletons of cars and locomotives. Fig.
2 is an elevation and part section of a locomotive with my devices attached. 5, and 6 show details.
Referring to the drawings by let-ter, A and Figs. 3, 4,
B are a pair of blowers o n the locomotive,-
connected, respectively, with the pipes C and D, which run back through the train, suitable couplings being provided between the cars. In the present invention the pipes are left open to the air at the rear of the train. Before leaving the locomotive they both pass through t-he {ire-box E, being suspended loosely therein by hangers F F, so as to admit of movement of said pipes laterally through said hangers to prevent binding or rupture of these parts while expanding or contracting. It will vbeobserved that the pipes are coiled in traversing the iiresbox, so as to present as much surface as possible to the heat. In order to minimize the effect of the heat or. the ames to which they are -dome of the boiler.
likely to be subjected, the pipes are covered with what is known as a Crucible coating, or any other composition vsuitable for the purpose. By these means the aking and burning away of the pipes are prevented.
Figs. 3, 4., and 5 show the details of the hangers. They consist of pipes of circular form suspended from the top plate e of the fire-box by hollow screws f f. The upper hangers are connected with the lower by similar means. The screws being hollow and the hangers being pipes, they will all become filled with water or steam from the boiler, and so be protected from the excessive heat of the fire-box.
In traversing the cars the pipespass through radiators G G. Joined to themat short intervals, preferably under each seat, are valves I-I II, (shown in detail in Fig. 6,) leading to perforated globes h, through which the heated air may be caused to flow freely when it is desired to heat a car rapidly, as when a cold car is taken on at a station.
The blowers are joined by belts or gearing to one of the axles of the forward truck of the locomotive. They draw their supply directly from the open air, and in connection with the valves II H may be employed to ventilate as well as heat the cars. In the drawings I show a set of gear-wheels or pulleys P P P, for joining the blowenshaft to the axle. The last-named pulley is beveled to allow for the turning of the truckaXle in going around curves. The middle gearwheel is supported on a frame R, which may be made wide enough to prevent interference from snow or other obstructions.
At J, I show an injector connected with one of the pipes and preferably with the There may be injectors connected with both pipes. The object is to supply a current when the locomotive is .sta-
. tionary.
Having now described my invention, I `clai1n= l. In a car-lieating system, a pipe running through the irebox of a locomotive, the said pipe being' loosely supported from the top plate of the fire-box by hangers in the form of pipes and hollow screws, as and for the I In testimony whereof Iliave aixed my Sigpurpose set; forth. nature in presence of two Witnesses. 2.
