CHARLES O. NEWTON, OF HOMER, NEW YORK.
CAR-HEATER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 429,363, dated June 3, 1890.
Application filed January 10, 1889, Serial No. 295,915. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES O. NEWTON,
of Homer, in the county of Cortland and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Oar-Heaters, of which the following is a specification, reference beinghad to the annexed drawings, forming a part thereof, in which Figure l is a side sectional elevation of a car, showing the application of my improved heater. Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse section taken on line 00 so in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 isa sectional plan view. Fig. 4 is a detail section of a double supply and exhaust pipe, showing the latticed girder, the section being taken on line yy in Fig. 3; and Fig. 5 is a transverse section taken on line z z in Fig. 4.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views.
The object of my invention is to provide a simple and effective system for heating railway-cars by steam, in which the cars will be heated uniformly throughout.
My invention consists in the constructio and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the car A, below the car-floor B, is formed a chamber 0, provided with a floor D, supported by the transverse timbers a of the car. Upon the floor D is laid first a layer 1) of asbestus or analogous non-conducting material, and upon the asbestus is placed a sheetmetal covering 0. In like manner the side walls of the chamber are provided with a covering b of asbestus and the metallic lining 0'. The under surface of the floor B is provided with a sheet-iron lining d, and between the said fioor B and the floor D are placed latticed iron joist-s O, secured to the floors B D and adapted to support the floor B.
Longitudinally in the chamber G is arranged a steam-supply pipe E, surrounded by the steam-discharge pipe F, and at suitable intervals lateral pipes e are inserted in the supply-pipe E, the said pipes extending toward the sides of the car, where they are'bent twice at right angles or made up with fittings to secure the same form, and are returned to the discharge-pipe F, so that the said lateral pipes 6 receive the steam from the pipe E and discharge the water of condensation or the by which they may be turned.
. isters.
ner the discharge-pipe F is provided at opposite ends with pipes f, which extend to the edges of the platforms and are provided with flexible connecting-pipes.
In the floor D are placed registers h for receiving cold air, the said registers being provided with spindles 2', which reach up through the floor B, and are provided with wheelsj,
The said registers h are provided with a fibrous covering Z, one end of which extends into a water-reservoir m, the fibrous covering being arranged to absorb water by capillarity and impart the moisture to the air received through the reg- The water in the reservoir m is to be replenished by the dripping of the Watercooler, or the water may be supplied in any other convenient way.
Within the inner leg n of each car-seat G is arranged a box-register 0, communicating with the chamber 0 through the floor B and arranged to discharge warm air into the body of the car. By means of myimprovement the floor B is evenly heated, and warm pure air is supplied to the car, thereby securing not only heating but perfect ventilation.
By surrounding the supply-pipe E by the discharge-pipe F a complete protection for the pipe E-is provided, so that condensation in the said supply-pipe is to a great extent avoided.
It is obvious that by forcing cold air or cold Water through the heating-pipes my improved system may be converted into a cooling apparatus, which will cool the air contained by the chamber and supply cold fresh air to the car in warm weather.
Having thus described myinvention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent The combination, with a hot-air chamber extending under the entire floor-space of a the hot air, of the steam-pipe E, extending connected at one end with the pipe E and at through said chamber under the central aisle, its other with pipe F, substantially as set forth. valved pipes ff at opposite ends of the pipe E, the exhaust-pipe F, inclosing the pipe E CHARLES O. NEWTON. 5 and having valved pipes f f at its ends, and W'itnesses:
the two rows of U -shaped branch pipes e below GEORGE W. PHILLIPS,
the spaces between the several seats, and each LESTER P. BENNETT.
