T CLU wwm/ it may COTLGWW l truncated conical shell 1, having its opposite Be it known that I, CHARLES A. KITTS, of ends provided with suitable heads 2 and 3, Oswego, in the county of Oswego, in the State the lower head being formed with a downof New York, have invented'new and useful Aturned annular flange 4, secured by rivets 5 5 Improvements'in Steam-Generators, of which to the adjacent walls of the smaller end of 55 the following, taken in con nection Vwith the the shell.

The object of this invention is to Aproduce VSecured to the side walls of the shell 1 are a a simple and compact boiler which is adaptseries of substantially radial water-tubes 7, ed for any use, and particularly for automohaving their inner ends communicating with bile use, in which a high degree ofsteam-presthe interior chamber of the shell 1 and their sure is required. outer ends closed by plugs 8 or other equiv- 65 The further object of this invention is to alent means.

I ranged and constructed with reference to the It is apparent from the foregoing descripheater that steam may be produced within a tion that by forming the upper portion of the very short space of time and that the parts shell 1 of greater diameter than the lower 95 of the boiler be so constructed as to permit portion and by inclining the water-tubes outthe same to be readily repaired when desired wardly and downwardly from said shell the without dissembling the whole boiler. products of combustion impinge against the My invention is designed to accomplish overhanging surface of the shell and also the 5o these results; and it consists of an inverted tubes 7 and that the staggered relation of the roo tubes causes the products of combustion to pass in tortuous paths from the base of the boiler to the dome.
The operation of my invention will now be readily understood upon reference to the foregoingdescription and theaccompanying drawings, and it will be noted Vthat some change may be made in the detail construction and arrangement of the parts without departing from the spirit thereof-as, for instance, the outer ends of the water-tubes may be'provided with caps instead of plugs, and the upper head of the boiler may be substantially ilat instead of concave-convex, and that other minor changes may be made within the scope of the invention, the essential feature being to form the upper portion of the boiler larger than its base and to provide the side walls of the boiler with a series of substantially radial water tubes inclining downwardl7 from a horizontal plane.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. A steam-generator comprising a watercontaining,` shell having inclined side walls, and a series of water-tubes projecting from rroutes' said side walls at substantially right angles thereto and having their outer ends extended substantially equal distances from the center of the shell and closed.
2. A steam-generator consisting of a tapering water-containing shell having a series of Water-tubes arranged in rows one above the other and inclining outwardly and downwardly therefrom, the tubes of each row being gradually reduced in length from the bottom row upwardly.
The combination with a burner and a heater-jacket, of an inverted truncated conical shell having a series of radial water-tubes extended outwardly from and at right angles to the side Walls of the shell and closed at their outer ends, said outer ends being substantially equal distances from the center of the shell and disposed in a cylindrical plane parallel with the jacket.
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 23d day of February, 1901.
CHARLES A. KITTS.
