VALENTINE HOERSOHELMANN, or BROOKLYN, NEw YORK.
REFRIGERATOR.
SPECIFIcATIoN forming pea ef Lettere Patent No. 477,804, dared June as, 1892.` Application le February 6 1892. Serial No. 420,532. (No model.)
To all whom t may concern:
dent of the city of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented frigerators, of which the following is a speciication.
This invention relates to an improved construction of refrigerators of that class which is intended for the use of butchers and others for preserving meat and similar perishable articles, in which an extra low ten'iperature is f required for the preservation of the articles, the improvement being designed with a View to furnish in the refrigerator a larger provision-chamber in which articles are Vstored that do not require a very low temperature, and also a chill-room in which 'such articles are stored which require a temperature below the freezing-point. For this purpose the invention consists of a refrigerator in which the ice-ch-amber is arranged transverse to the structure and at some distance from'the ends of the same, so that a smaller chill-room and a larger provision-chamber is formed at op posite sides of the ice-chamber. Thewall of the ice-chamber toward the provision-cham- `ber is composed of several partitions, forming air-spaces, which extend below the grated bottom of the ice-chamber and terminate in a drip-pan, so that the frostrdeposited on the partition-walls when melted is conducted off by the drip-pan. Between the grated lbottom of the ice-chamber and the drip-pan is an opening that communicates with the chillroom, while a gate provided with sliding registers is arranged below the lower edge of the drip-pan and the bottom of the refrigerator, so that the chilled air can be conducted from the chill-room through the register into the provision-chamber, whereby the temperature of the lattercan be readily controlled.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure l represents a vertical longitudinal section on line l 1, Fig. 3, of my improved refrigerator.
Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse section on line 2 2, Fig. l. Fig. 3 is a horizontal section on line 3 3 of Fig. 1.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.
Referring to' the. drawings, A represents' a In the refrigerator structure A is arranged an ice-chamber B, thatv extends transversely across the refrigerator; but is nearer to one end wall of the same than to the other, so as to form at one side of the ice-chamber a small chill-room C, and at the other side of the same a larger provision-chamber D. The side walls of :the ice-chamber B toward the small ,chill-room C is preferably constructedof galvanized sheet metal, which is reinforced by suitable rods, as shown in Figs. l and 2, while the wall to'- ward the provision-chamber is composed of a number of parallel partitions b b, between which and the side wall of said chamber aire shown, so that the drip'produced by the melting frost on said partitions is taken up by the drip-pan and conducted through the drainpipe e to the outside of the refrigerator. The ice-chamber B is provided with a grated bottom v-, on which the lumps of ice rest, so that the air that is conducted in downward direction through the ice and is chilled and discharged through the opening b2, that is arranged below the grated bottom and between the lower edge of that wall of the ice-chamber which faces the chill-room and the lower part of the drip-pan E, so that theair is conducted into the chill-room and keeps the same at a temperature below the freezing-point, so as to preserve articles like .fowls, dto., which are preserved by keeping them in frozen condition for a suitable length of time.
Between the lower edge ofV the drip-pan E and the bottom of the refrigeratorA is arranged a gate F, which is provided with openings f and a sliding register f', so that the supply of air Of low temperature from the chill-room C to the provision-chamber D can be regulated, and the temperature of the latter can be raised or lowered, as desired, ac-
