STOVE OR RANGE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 515,515, dated February 27, 1894.

Application filed .Tune 16, 1893.

ro ments in stoves and ranges whereby a ventilation of the oven is effected.

The object of the invention is to provide for a constant supply of fresh air to the oven without lowering the temperature of the oven In securing this result it has been my aim to utilize the surplus heat of the stove, and to this end the invention consists in the novel construction andarrangement of parts, all as hereinafter zo fully set forth.

In the accompanying drawings illustrating the invention, Figure l, is a perspective view of a stove in which is shown at the rear near its base a row of holes for the inlet of fresh Fig. 2, is a longitudinal vertical cross section taken through the stove on the line :rfof Fig. l.

The stove or range to which the herein described improvements are applicable may be 3o of any desired form, that shown being the well-known form of cooking-stove or range having the fire-chamber A located in the u pper forward part of the same.

The stove is provided as usual with the cooking-oven B, andthe warming-oven C located at the base.

In the present instance the smoke-pipe D communicates with the interior of the stove through an opening E located in the chamber 4o formed between the bottom of the oven B and warming-oven C, and by so locating the outiet of the products of combustion the heat units are caused to take the circuitous route shown before entering the smoke-pipe, thus thoroughly parting with their heat and uniformly heating the oven. The draft inclosing-chamber F formed between the oven B and the stove casing and between the two ovens is cut oft at the lower forward end and Serial No. 477.835. (No model.)

II of the main oven and the partition I, and communicating with the Warming-oven C. The end-Wall H of the oven is provided with perforations whereby to establish communi- 4cation between the chamber G and the main oven, and a series of apertures K are formed f in the rear end of the Warmingoven to allow the entrance of fresh air from the inlet holes I. in the stove casing. The rear end of the oven near its top is provided with a series of openings M protected by a hood N secured to the outer face of the end Wall and extending down over said openings whereby to prevent any possibility of the entrance of smoke to the oven. The course of the draft effected by the above described construction and arrangement is clearly shown by the arrows; the draft of the smoke iiue from the lirechamber being over the top of the oven down at its rear end and thence under the same and out through the opening E; and the fresh air draft is from the opening L through the warming-oven where it becomes heated in its passage therethrough, and thence into the chamber G between the forward end of the main oven and the inner wall of the fire chamber andl ash-pit where its temperature is brought to a still higher degree preparatory to entering the main oven through the perforations in its forward end. This draft of fresh airisbroughtaboutbythesmokedrattthrough the communication in the upper portion Vof the rear end of the oven as will be readily understood.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

1. In a stove or range the combination with Y of the cooking oven, down at its rear end and 10o 5o a chamber G formed between the forward end In testimony whereof I hereunto ax my signature in the presence of two Witnesses.
