J. DUNTON. Camp Stove.
Patnted Oct. 11, 1864..

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JACOB DUNTON, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
CAM P-STOVE.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 44,617, dated October 11, 1864.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JACOB DUNTON, of the city and county of Philadelphia, in the State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Camp Kettles or Stoves; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 is a plan of my improved kettle. Fig. 2 is a front end view thereof. Fig. 3 is a vertical section, the plane whereof is indicated by the line 00 00, Figs. 1 and 2. 7
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures.
Camp kettles or boilers, as hitherto constructed, are at tended in their use with several disadvantages, the most serious of which consists in the necessity of removing the ashes or cleaning out the fire-box after the kettle has been or is about to be brought into requisition.
An effort has been made to obviate the above-mentioned difliculty by constructing the kettle so that it may be placed over a pit or cavity dug in the ground to contain the fire; but the digging of this pit is usually tantamount, so far as labor is concerned, to the cleaning out of the stove; and as the persons who employ culinary implements of this character are constantly changing position, the digging of the fire-pits is of almostas frequent recurrence as would be the cleaning out of the firebox of the stove.
The object of my invention is to provide a kettle or boiling stove which may be efl'ectually heated by being placed over a fire built upon the level ground, no preparation of the ground for its reception attending its use.
lu order that others skilled in the art to wli J-h my invention appertains may be enabled to fully understand and use the same, I will proceed to describe its construction and operation.
in the accompanying drawings, A represents the boiler proper or vessel which contains the coffee, tea, soup, &c., to be boiled. B is a casing or hood, within which the boiler A is supported, in the manner shown in Fig. 3. The hood B is bottomless, and extends A, so as to form a space or apartment for a fire which may be built upon the ground. The hood B protects the fire from external influencessuch as rain and windand, being provided with an adjustable fire-door, b, and chimney or flue B, is adapted to produce a strong draft to insure the perfect combustion of the fuel beneath the boiler A. The bOiltI Ais attached at its upper edges to the intern r of the hood B at the junction of the top and walls thereof, and said boiler may be made slightly convergent toward the bottom, for the purpose of exposing all its available area to the action of the heat to expedite the boiling process. Thus the products of combustion are adapted to encircle the boilerA previously to passing up the flue B.
The thing to be boiled is introduced into the kettle through an opening in the top of the hood B, which opening is closed by the cap 13". The top of the hood B forms also the top of the boiler A.
The above-described kettle can be placed over a fire on the ground, either outdoors or in a tent.
After the water, coffee, tea, &c., has been boiled the kettle is lifted off the fire and carried wherever the thing boiled may be needed for distribution or issue, to facilitate which the hood is provided with handles 0 O. The article boiled may be drawn off at the cock D.
The fire at times need not be disturbed by the removal of the kettle, and can be used for broiling or toasting, and if the fire, when thus used, should become too low, it may be quickly i'reshened up by replacing the kettle.
If used in one place until the space between the bottom of the boiler and the ground becomes filled with ashes, it is only necessaryto change the locality of the kettle and permit the ashes to remain-an unobjectionable act in camp life.
Very little fuel is required to heat the kettle, and hence it is of advantage in places where wood is scarce. It cools rapidly on being removed from the fire, and may always be as readily removed as an ordinary kettle.
The form and dimensions of the boiler A and hood B do not constitute essentialitics of my invention, and I propose to vary them in any some distance below the bottom of the boiler l way that may be suggested by experience.
Having thus described my invention, what The above specification of my improvement I claim as new therein, and desire to secure in campstoves signed this 27th day of July,
by Letters Patient, is 1864.
The hood or casing B, employed in connection with the boiler A, to adapt the same to be JACOB DUNTON' heated by a, fire built upon the ground, and to Witnesses: protect the fire, in the 'manner and for the pur- BENJAMIN WARDELL, poses explained. JOHN MAPS.
