UNITED STATES PATENT oFFroE- ANNA M. CLARKE, OF SCRANTON, PENNSYLVANIA.
SAD-IRON HEATER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 11, 1907.
To aZZ whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, ANNA M. CLARKE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Scranton, in the county of Lackawanna and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sad-Iron Heaters, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
My invention relates to improvements in sad iron heaters for use upon cooking or heating stoves provided with removable lids or covers.
The object of the invention is to improve and simplify the construction and operation of devices of this character and thereby render the same more efficient.
lVith the above and others objects in view, the invention consists in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described and claimed, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which,
Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved sad iron heater; Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view through the same; and Fig. 3 is a top plan view.
My improved sad iron heater comprises a hollow drum 1 here shown in the form of a pyramid provided with four sides upon each of which is adapted to be supported a sad iron; but within the scope of my invention the drum may be of any shape and provided with a greater or less number of faces so that any number of sad irons may be simultaneously heated upon it. The heater drum or body 1 is adapted to be placed upon the top of a stove of any description over a pot or lid opening, and projecting from its large lower end is an annular base flange 2 of greater diameter than the ordinary pot or lid openings in stoves. The flange or base 2 rests upon the top of the stove and, in order to prevent lateral displacement of the heater, I form upon the bottom of the base flange 2 a depending annular rib or shoulder 3 which is adapted to enter the opening in the stove top. The smaller and upper end of the heater body or drum 1 is closed and formed with a centrally-arranged depression or recess 4 across which is arranged a cross-bar 5. The recess 4 is provided for the reception of a stove lid lifter, the hooked end of a poker, or any similar device which may engage the cross-bar 5 and permit the heater to be lifted and removed from the stove while hot without danger of burning ones hands.
In each of the flat inclined faces or sides 6 of the heater body or drum 1 is formed an opening 7, preferably of elliptical form and of less size than the bottom of the ordinary sad iron. Since the construction of each of the sides 6 of the heater, (and all the parts of the invention arranged thereon) is the same, a description of one will suflice for all. A sad iron of any description may be supported upon the outer face of the side 6 by a support-' ing flange 8 which projects from said side and extends around the lower end and upwardly upon the two sides of the opening 7. The lower or curved portion of the flange 8 is inclined upwardly and inwardly, as seen in Fig. 2, so as to engage the pointed end of a sad iron and more effectively hold the latter upon the side 6. The supporting flange S is arranged some distance from the edge of the opening 7 and between said flange and edge upon the outer face of the side 6 are formed small projections 9 which are engaged by the bottom of the sad iron so that the latter is spaced slightly above the side 6 of the heater to permit the heat within the drum or body 1 to pass outwardly under the bottom of the iron and thereby more quickly and effectively heat the latter.
Each of the openings 7 is adapted to be closed by four door sections 10, 11, 12, 13. As illustrated in the drawings, they are mounted upon the inner face of the side 6 and are therefore disposed entirely within the bodyor drum 1. The door sections 10, 11 are similar in shape and are pivoted at their upper ends asat 14. The door sections 12, 13 are also similar in shape and are pivoted adjacent to their upper and outer ends, as at 15. The door sections 10 and 12 are connected together by a pivot link 16 which causes them to open and close simultaneously, and the door. sections 11 and 13 are similarly connected by a link or rod 16 so 100 that they swing together. The outwardly swinging movement of the door sections is limited by stops 17 in the form of lugs or studs suitably arranged upon and projecting from the inner face of the side 6, as shown in Fig. 2; and the inwardly swinging movement of the door sections is limited by stops 18, 19 also in the form of lugs projecting from the inner face of the side 6 and arranged at the upper and lower ends of the opening 7 Recesses or notches 20, 21 are formed respectively in the door sections 10, 11 and 12, 13 for the reception of thestop lugs 18, 19, as will be readily understood upon reference to Fig. 2. The door sections 1011 12- 13 are so shaped and pivoted that they will swing by gravity to their closed positions and in order to permit these door sections to be swung open by the said iron when it is placed in position upon the side 6 and to old said door sections open, I provide upon the outer faces of the lower door sections 1213 the ribs or projections 22. The latter are arranged angularly with respect to each other and inclined downwardly and inwardly. They project outwardly from the outer faces of the sections 1213 and sufliciently beyond the outer surfaces of the side6'to'receive and support the sad iron. To cause them to more effectively hold. the sad iron upon the side 6'they are inclined upwardly and inwardly, as clearly shown in Fig. 1.
It will thus be seen that the weight of the iron supported upon ribs 22 will hold the door sections in their open position and that when the iron is removed the door sections will swing automatically to their closed position. It will be understood that the iron supporting and door operating ribs 22 may be used interchangeably with the iron supporting flange 8, since when the iron is supported upon ribs 22 the flange 8 is unnecessary.
From the foregoing description, takenin connection with the accompanying drawings, it is thought that the construction,
operation and advantages of myinvention will be readily understood'without a more extended explanation.
While I have shown and described a'pre- 'ferred embodiment of my invention,.it will be understood. thatI do not wish to belimited to the-precise showing herein set forth since various changes in the form, proportion and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and without sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention, as defined by the appended claims.
