Application tiled September 14, 1905. Serial No 278,505.

To all whom, it may conc/:7%:

Be it known that I, WiLLis E. Hors, a citizen of the lfnited States, residing ati-Richmond I-iill, New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Radiators; and l do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention. such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

My invention relates to improvements-in radiators of that class made of corrugated metal and adapted to be secured upon the walls of rooms or other places to be heated.

The object of the invention is to provide a steam or hot-water radiator of this character which will be simple, durable, and efiicient in construction and which may be manufactured at comparatively small cost.

Vith the above and other objects in view the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination, and arrangement of parts,.as will be hereinafter describedand claimed.

In the accompanying'drawings, Figure l is a front elevation 'of my improved radiator. Fig. 2 is a horizontal se tional view through the same, taken on the p ane indicated by the Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view taken on the plane indicated by the line i5 3 in Fig, 1, and Fig. 4 is a detail vertical longitudinal sectional view through one end of the radiator.

The embodiment of my invention shown in the accompanying drawings is in the form of a steam-radiator designed to be attached to the wall of a room, so as to take up but little space. This radiator comprises front and rear sheets l and of corrugated iron or other metal, which have their side edges seamed together, as shown at 3, and'their, top and bottom ends or edges connected by casting upon them a top 4 and a'bottom 5. The corrugations of the front and rear sheets l 2 inay be of any form and arrangement; but I preferably make them substantially V-shaped, so that they it into each other, as clearly shown in Fi 2 of the drawings. The two sheets may e spaced apart, so as to leave a steamspace between them, by any suitable means but I preferably place one or more pieces ot soft wire or the like (l between thi m before they are riveted together, as shown at 7. rl`he double seiimh at the vertical or sido edges of the sheets l 2 may also be oll anv form that will provide a water and steam tighty connection, Alter the sheets 1 :Uni2 have been riveted together and seamed along their sides their ends are placed in molds in which the top 4 and bottom 5 are cast. rlhis top 4 and bottom 5 close the stcain-spacc between the sheets l 2, and a circulation through said space is efl'ected by tapping the bottom 5 adjacent to its ends, as shown at 8 t), to receive thc supply and return pipes l() and l1. I

Any suitable ornamental work i2 may be secured upon the top 4 o r other portions ol' the radiator, and the latter may be secured to a wall by brackets 13 or in any other suitable manner.

The construction and advantages ot the invention will be readily understood from the foregoing dscription, taken, in connection with the accompanying drawings. lt will be seen that by making the front and rear ol the radiator of corrugated sheet i'netal, seaming their side edges, and casting the top and bottoni on the same, as shown and described, a very light and at the same time durable radi ator is provided which may be manufactured at comparatively small cost.

Various changes in the form, proportion, and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departii'ig from the principle or sacrilicing any of the advantages ol' this invention. l

`Having t-hus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by lietters Patent, is-

The herein-described radiator comprising a top, a bottom, front and rear sheets having their upper and lower edges secured respectively to the top and bottom, their vertical end edges secured together, and their intermediate portions vertically corrugated, the front sheet having its corrugations extending into those of the rear sheet, and its end portions bent to form, together with the end A)ortions of the rear sheet, vertical flow an return chambers, rivets connecting the corrugated portions of th'e sheets together, and
