STEAM-RADIATO R.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 447,241, dated February 24, 1891.
Application filed September 18, 1890- Serial No. 365,386. (No modali) I T0 all whom, t may con/cern.'
Be it known that I, CLARK OTIS, a citizen4 of the United States, residing at Farmer Village, in the county of Seneca and State of New' York, have invented certainnew and useful Improvements in Steam-Radiators, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure lis a vertical longitudinal sectional view of my improved steam-radiator, and Fig. 2 a transverse sectional view of the base thereof.
The invention has relation to certain new and useful improvements upon that class of steam-radiators wherein are employed vertical pairs ofsteam-circulatimg pipes connected together at their upper ends and communicating at their lower ends with the interior of a hollow base, as will more fully hereinafter appear.
The special object I have in view is to provide simple means for quickly collecting and carrying o the waters of condensation from the interior of the radiator, as will presently appear.
In the accompanying drawings, the letterA designates a hollow cast-metal base, which has screwed into openings in its upper side vertical circulating-pipes B, connected together at their upper ends to form pairs in the usual manner. The base is supported, as usual,
upon suitable legs or feet, and is provided at its opposite ends, respectively, with the usual steam inlet and outlet. The interior of the base is divided into separate chambers by irnperforate vertical transverse walls a, which extend entirely across the interior of the base and are connected to the bottom and top thereof. These partitions are located between the pipes of each pair, so that the adjacent pipes of the adjoining pairs will communicate only with each other at their lower ends. IVith this arrangement 0f pipes and partitions, it will be observed, the steam may circulate freely and continuously, passing up one pipe, down the next, through the base, and up the next pipe, and so on through the entire radiator until it makes its exit at the outletopening.
`A horizontal water-pipe b extends alongbel neath the base and is connected at its ends to depending chambers a a', formed on the ends of the base. This water-pipe is connected to the interior of the base at two points in its length by means of T-couplings b b', the vertical portions of the couplings screwing over pings from two circulating-pipes B. The cony densed water passes down into the water-pipe b, and from thence into the end chambers a', from whence the water runs into the steamconducting pipes and is thereby carried back to the boiler or other point, as usual.
It is evident that this radiator may also be employed as a hot-water radiator. It will also be observed that by my construction the condensed water will readily and entirely pass out of the radiator, leaving the whole empty when not in use.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim is 1. The combination of a series of vertical steam-pipes connected together at their upper ends to form pairs, a hollow base communieating with the lower ends of the said pipes and provided with a series of transverse partitions a, thereby dividing the base into a series of independent chambers, each of which has its bottom inclined toward a drip-opening c, depending chambers a', formed at the ends of the base and provided, respectively, with an outlet and inlet opening, a horizontal pipe arranged under the base and having its ends communicating with the said depending chambers, and couplings on this pipe communicating with the drip-openings, whereby all the water' of condensation may readily run IOO out of the radintorns fast as formed, snbstztnand communicating with the said depending tially as described. chambers, substantially as described;y 1o
