DOMESTIC GARBAGE- BURN ER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 540,080, dated May 28, 1895. Application filed November 7, 1894:. Serial No. 528,138. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, GEORGE TAYLOR, of Boston, in the county of Sufiolk, and MARTIN BERNARD MOLAUTHLIN, of Malden, in the county of Middlesex, State of Massachusetts, have invented new and useful Improvements in Domestic Garbage-Burners, of which the following, taken in connection With the accompanying drawings, is a specification.
Our invention relates to the immediate disposal of garbage in a private manner by distillation and combustion; and it consists, primarily, of combining with an ordinary cookstove, range or other heater, the means whereby the method is carried out, and, secondly, in the construction and use of its parts as will be hereinafter fully described and specifically set forth in the claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of our invention; Fig. 2, a longitudinal vertical section; Fig. 3, a transverse vertical section, and Fig. 4. a sectional plan.
A is the opening or flue, the rim of which is made to fit the range so as to become a fixture therewith and apart of it.
B is the opening or flue, the rim of which is made to fit closely any chimney flue or connecting length of piping.
C is a cylinder made preferably of sheetmetal into the interior of which the openings A and B communicate. The drawings show the one opening at a right angle to the other but it is expressly understood that they may be linear, or in any other way communicating with each other.
D is shown as a sheet-metal head, which, however, may be made of cast metal. It is provided with the rabbeted edge (1 for a shouldered and closeinsertion to the cylinder 0, which close fit is amply sufficient to secure tight joints and to hold secure in place.
D is another head made preferably of cast metal to close the opposite end of the cylinder, and is composed of a ring E and a door F. This ring or frame E is provided with a rabbeted edge (e) to limit its insertion into the cylinder, and it is also provided with hooks (e). The door F is provided with projections (f) for engagement with the hooks (e) which serve as fastenings to hold the door to the frame. The door F is further. provided with a suitable handle G by means of which the door may be Entirely removed from the frame and replace The door may be provided with the ordinary swinging hinges, or other fastening,buttheforegoingispreferred. The handle G is made of non-conducting material or in such manner that the heat is not transmitted thereto from the door.
H is the hopper or receptacle to hold or contain the garbage during its incineration. It is shown as scoop-shaped but may be modified without in any way impairing its functions. This hopper is of such size as compared with the cylinder C as to allow of ample flue capacity between it and the cylinder, and that the said hopper does not retard the natural draft of the range. It is provided with a series of openings or perforations h in its sides down to a prescribed level, below which it is tight so as to hold a liquid. The openings h are to allow the heated gases to permeate the garbage and thus the heated gases pass directly through the hopper and the contained garbage. The hopper is secured to the door in any substantial manner, but preferably as shown in 2, by sleeves g g and bolts 9' g, the sleeves placed between the hopper and the door with the bolts passing through and binding all together and making the parts to all intents and purposes integral.
I is a partition placed longitudinally with the cylinder and shown in Fig. 3. It is placed at the best point by which the draft is forced the farthest distance from inlet to outlet. qlt deflects the natural tendency of the draft in another direction. It may be secured either to the chamber or the receptacle.
J is a hot shelf arranged on top of the cylinder simply as a convenience to ordinary household work. I
In operation its use is as follows: Heated gases from the range are entering the chamber through the opening A and leaving through the opening B. Taking hold of the handle G and door are now replaced and the garbage is in the closed chamber with the heated gases circulating through and around it. The vegetable matter at once begins to dry and shrink, due to evaporation of water, while greasy or fatty matter becomes fluid and is retained in the bottom of the hopper until it ignites thereby effecting a higher degree of heat to hasten the incineration of the whole mass, and at the same time destroying the odor therefrom. The ignition is caused by admitting a sufficiency of air through the range to supply oxygen to the hydro-carbons. In due time, generally when other garbage is about to be introduced, the hopper is removed from the chamber and the charred or incinerated contents are emptied into the fire of the range by which all that remains is reduced to ashes.
Having thus described our invention, what we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A domestic garbage burner comprising in its construction a closed chamber provided with an inlet and outlet opening, a hopper or receptacle in said chamber provided with a closed bottom and perforated sides and a defleeting plate in said chamber so located as to cause the products of combustion to contact the refuse matter either through the perforations or at the top of the receptacle substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
2. A domestic garbage burner comprisingin its construction a closed chamber provided with an inlet and outlet opening, and an opentop hopper or receptacle provided with a closed bottom and perforated sides so located in said chamber as to cause the products of combustion to contact the refuse matter either through the perforations or at the top of the receptacle substantially asand for the purpose set forth.
In testimony whereof we have signed our names to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses, on this 3d day of November, A. D. 1894.
