SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 746,808, dated December 15, 1903- Applioation filed August 8, 1903. Serial No. 168,81l). (No model.)

ings, and to the letters of reference, marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

-This invention relates to new and useful,

improvements in gas-burners, and comprises a novel apparatus adapted to be placed inside of heating-boxes of furnaces. stoves, &c., and so arranged that the fuel will-become thoroughly atomized before being ignited, and in the provision of means for introducing air, whereby a thorough combustion of the fuel is efiected.

More specifically, the invention comprises a heater made of one or more sections and so arranged that a greater or less heating-surface may be employed, according to the intensity of the heating desired, and comprises a central receptacle into which the fuel is introduced and in which it becomes thoroughly heated before passing out through jets, where it becomes thoroughly mixed with air before passing to the chamber where the gas is ignited.

My invention consists, further, in various details of construction and in combinations and arrangements of parts, which will be hereinafter fully described and then specifically defined in the appended claims.

My invention is illustratedin the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure l is a top plan view of my improved heater. Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken on line 2 2 of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a sectional view through the heater, parts being shown in top plan View. Fig. a is a sectional view through the transverse section of the heater.

Reference now being had to the details of drawings by letter, A designates a circularcompartment receptacle, which in the present instance is shown as having two circular chambers A and A separated by a partition y B, and O designates a plate which may be integral with said receptacle A or secured thereto, and said plate 0 is centrally apertured to receive the threaded screw D, which is mounted upon any suitable supportingpipes or other means, as shown in Fig. 2 of the drawin gs. Radially-disposed nozzles E lead from said circular chambers A and A and leading to the two compartments A and A are fuel-feeding pipes F and F, one of which leads to one of said compartments and the other to the second compartment. Secured to the plate 0 is a circular plate K, with a central opening, and the two plates C and Kare to be fastened together in any suitable manner, and a burner H, of circular form, is se cured to the plate K and has a plurality of chambers N and N, into which lead the radial ducts O and O, the former, 0, leading into the lower compartment N, and the upper ducts 0 lead to the compartment N. The circumferential wall of each compartment has a series of perforations 11., through which the gas makes exit and burns about the circumferences of said compartments. Upon referenceto Fig. 3 of the drawings it will be observed that a slight space intervenes between the nozzle ends E and the open ends of the portsO and O sufficient to allow the gas which makes exit from the nozzle to force a quantity of air into the ducts and becomes thoroughly mixed with the oil prior to igniting the same about the circumferences of the compartments.

In thedrawlngs I have shown my heater as made up of three sections, each being separable from the other, whereby if it is desired to produce a small amount of heat one of the sections may be utilized or all if a larger quantity of heat is desired.

Secured to the under surface of the burner or integral therewith, if desired, is a shelf R, which serves to deflect the flame, thus causing it to ignite.

In setting up my heater it is my purpose to insert it through the door of the furnace or stove and mount the same upon a suitable standard, and as the gas becomes sufiiciently heated it will be caused to be forced out through the nozzles and sprayed into the burner, where it becomes thoroughly commingled with the inrushing air, thus afiording iOO a sufficient amount of oxygen to produce a nearly complete combustion.

While I have shown a particular construction of heater illustrating the invention, it will be understood that I may make variations in the construction of the apparatus without departing from the spirit of the invention.

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

1. A heater for furnaces, stoves, &;c., comprising a central-compartment generator provided with superposed chambers each with a radially-disposed nozzle leading therefrom, feeding-pipes leading to said chambers, a surrounding burner havingaplurality of superposed compartments the outer circumferential walls of which are perforated, a series of radially -disposed ducts in alinement with said nozzles and spaced apart therefrom, plates to which said generator and burner are secured, and means for supporting the heater, as set forth.

2. A heater for furnaces, stoves, &c., comprising a central-compartment generator having radial lugs about the circumference there- HARRY P. FISH.
