PATENT OFFIC MARIO O. WOOD-ALLEN, OF ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, ASSIGNOR TO EDWARD R. VIGER, OF DETROIT, MICHIGAN.
CHARCOAL-BURNING ATTACHMENT FOR STOVES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 790,166, dated May 16, 1905. Application filed April 15, 1904. Serial No. 203,278.
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, MARIO (J. WOOD-ALLEN, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Ann Arbor, in the county of l/Vashtenaw and State of Michigan, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Charcoal-BurningAttachments for Stoves, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
This invention relates to improvements in charcoal-burning attachments for stoves; and its object is to provide a device for the purpose which may be readily inserted within and will fit any size of fire-box of an ordinary cooking stove or range and which may bemanufactured very cheaply by any tinsmith or sheet-metal worker without requiring any special tools or machine-work.
It is also an object of the invention to pro- Vide suitable means for supporting the device Within the fire-box and to provide the par? ticular shape, construction, and arrangement of parts, all as hereinafter more fully described, and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a vertical section of a cooking stove or range, showing the device in position Within the fire-box; and Fig. 2, a perspective view of the device detached.
As shown in the drawings, A is the fire-box of the stove, A A the front and back walls, respectively, of said box, and A the bottom wall of a flue leading rearwardly from the upper edge of the rear wall A all as ordinarily constructed and arranged in a cooking stove or range.
The charcoal-burning attachment or grate B consists of a sheet of metal bent to form a trough-like body B, substantially semicircular in cross-section and provided with perforations 13 of a suitable size and number to allow the air to pass through and cause complete combustion of the charcoal or other fuel placed within the trough-like body. At one edge thesheet metal is rolled over to form a hook B to engage and rest upon the wall A Where it joins the rear wall of the fire-box and supports one edge of the body, and at its opposite edge B the metal is folded upon itself to strengthen and stiffen the same. The forward edge of the body is supported by two sheet-metal legs 0, riveted to said edge and adapted to extend downward and rest upon the inwardly-projecting ledge or other support at the bottom of the front wall. A hook similar to the hook B may also be formed on the forward side of the body to engage an angle or projecting shoulder on the front of the stove; but as all stoves of this class do not have such a projection it is preferable to provide the legs for supporting the body at its forward side. As it is not necessary that the body fit closely within the fire-box, the bodies are preferably made of a length to [it the shorter boxes and may then be used in boxes of any length; but should the body be too long it may very easily be cut off with an ordinary pair of tin-shears. The body or grate is also made to accommodate itself to any width of box by simply bending the same, and as the natural tendency of the sheet will be to straighten out this spring will hold the body firmly in place when it is forced downward into the fire-box.
The body being semicircular in cross-section, as the fuel burns it will fall toward the center, and thus all burn up, and the fuel is supported by the grate near the top of the fire-box, so that the fire is brought near the top of the stove, which is necessary in burning charcoal or other light fuel to make a quick hot fire.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim is 1. A charcoal burning attachment for stoves consisting of a perforated sheet plate of substantially semicircular shape in crosssection, the edges of said plate being turned over throughout their length, in combination with a supporting-wall received in one of said turned-over edges, and supporting-legs having their upper ends abutting the other of said turned-over edges and secured to the plate, substantially as described.
2. The combination With the fire-box of a l abutting the other of said turned-over edges stove, and the side Walls therein, of an attachand secured to the sheet-metal plate. 10 went consisting of a perforated sheet-metal In testimony whereof .I allix my signaturein plate of substantially semicircular shape in presence of two witnesses. cross-section, and having overturned edges MAR-1O (J. \VOOD-ALLEN.
