To otZZ whom it may concern,-

Be it known that I, FRANK l'lARPER, a. citizen of the United States, residing at J sckson, in the county of Jackson and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and. useful Imrovolnents in Cooking-Stoves, ,of which the on improved construction of cooking stove designed to cook by means of either gas or assembled ports will be compactly arranged and e'llicient in operation for all the various uses of which a device of, this character is or). able. I

or a full description of-the invention and the merits thereof and also to acquire a knowledge of the details of construction of the-niesns for cll'ectiug the result, reference is to be had to the following description and soicompzrnying drz-rwings, in which:

Figure 1 is it top plan view of my improved combination stove, port of the top thcrooi' Fig. 2 is :1 vertical longitudinnl sectional view.

Correspomling and like parts are referred to in tl following description and indicated in all the views of the drawings by like reforfront and cool; wells or castings}; and 4.

upon shelf or plaic 6. The fire box in the resent embodiment of my invention is coated (it the extreme left of the body proper ofjzhe stove, as shown.

My improved cocking stove also embodies sf closet or receptacle 7 which is secured by rivets or the like to the body of the stove in a suspended relation and which is intended to contain a removable oven 8 which in operative relation is supported on top of the receptacle 7. in addition to this removable oven, the stove embodies c stationary oven 9 which in the present instance is located at the therein in a spaced relation li'om the walls of if e stove body so as to provide a line passagell) around the oven. Bctwccn the stationery oven 9 and tho :lirc box 1 2r water coil ll. is positioned, the upper end thereof being in contiguous relation to the back Wltll ol the firebox l. The coil 11 is located between partition wells 12- cnd 11 which cxtcml verend.

tically within the body of the stove. The partition wall 12 assists in supporting the shelf 6 and also supports the back wall or casting 4 of the fire box. The Wftll 12 is provided with an opening 12 at its upper ings being provided in the pr zscnt instance,

and two of said openings are located directly over the the box 1. it is of course understood that all of theseopenings are intended to be covered whenever.desired, with the usual removable lids. The top of the closet or rcceptccle 7 is also provided with burner openings 14, that are, as shown, of the design usually employed in stoves. At the back of the main portion of the stove is secured n cylindrical howl 15 \i'hich is intended to contain a wster boiler or heater l6 and which is providcd with an upward extension 17 designed for attachment to the smoke pipe or line. The interior of the cylindrical hood 15 communicates with one end of the passage 10 by means of an elbow or Slll'lllztl pipe connection 18, and a dzunpcr l9 governs said communication. B y means of this d :unpcr a draft may be established between the outer or upper end of the flue passage 10 and the interior of the hood. The szrid draft may be cut oil whenever desired. in addition. to the elbow 18, direct communicction may be established between the interior oi the hood and the main interior portion ol the stove, by means of openings 2-0, each of which is controlled by a. dmnper 21.

in addition to tho lire box 1, the stove cmbodies other healing devices. Those 11 citing devices are gesburners, and as illustrated there are two of such burners, designated :22, provided for the opcuings ll of the closet or wrccptaclc 7 and undcrnculli said gas burners 2'3is located a. soot tray 23 which is intcndcd to slide into the closet upon ledges 24 through a side opening in the sold l'cccptzlclc 7. \Ybencvcr necessary the tray 2b lmty be withdrawn laterally and cleaned. (lusburucrs are also prov idcd for the burner penings l3 in the body ol the stove. 'llrcsc last named gas burners arc designated 25 and .26. T110 burners 25 are czu'ricd on the outer ends 01'' tubcs 27 that arc lillcd to telescope over the stuiloum' branch pipes 28 radiating from a. common bond 2!). 'lnc burners 26 are carried in u stationary uumncr on the two complements-l brunch tubes 28. The head 29 supplies all the burners 25 and 26 and is provided with an air inlet tube 30 that preferably enters the front of the stove, the gas and air being thereby mixed to produce the proper blue flame. The water coil 11 is also supplied with a gas burner 31, and a gas burner 32 is located underneath the stationary oven 9. I

The partition wall 12 nearits lower end is provided with an opening which is governed by means of a damper 33 preferably operable from the front portion of the stove, and the said damper is also designed to control one end of the flue passage 10. As illustrated in the drawings, the parts are so related that the damper 33 may either be swung down to close the opening in the partition wall 12 or may be swung up into a horizontal position against the lower left-hand corner of the sta- 2o ti'onary oven 9 to extend entirely across and cut off the flue passage 10. i From the foregoing description in connec tion with the accompanying drawings it is evident that my im roved cooking stove may utilize either coa' or gas or both as fuel. If it be desired to use coal alone, and atthe same time to heat the water coil 11, the oven 9, and the boiler 16, the dam ers 21 may be closed, the damper 33 dropper and the damper 19 left open. A draft will thus be estabished around the upper end of the water coil, down through theadjacent portion of the flue assage 10 to heat the coil, across the bottom of the oven to heat the latter, and up through the other side of the flue passage past the damper 19 and through the elbow 18 into the ,hood where it will heat the boiler 16 and finally pass up into the flue. When coal alone is used, the burners may be slid laterally out of the way where they will not project underneath their respective burner opening's 13. It is to be understood in this description, that while the heat passes down around the coils 11, it may pass through the coils by ,opening damper 33, although the coils are 1 primarily intended to be heated by gas supplied through the burner 31. If it be desired to use both coal and gas, it is obvious that this can be done by burning'gas at any or all of the burners 22, 26, 31 and 32, the burners 2 5 being pushed back out of the way.

If it be desired to use only gas, the burners 25 are preferably drawn outwardly into proper registry wlth the burner openings 13 and any of the gas burners before described, lighted, according to the particular conditions existing and the particular cooking operations desired to be performed. For instance, the' burners 25, and 26 may all be lighted to cbok upon the burner openings 13, ,and the boiler 16 may be heated at the same time by opening the dampers 21, or water may be heated by lighting the burner 31. 6; The stationary oven may be utilized by 'forth for either coal or gas, wnich tionary sid'eration.

lighting the burner 32, or by lighting burners 22 the removable oven 8 may be u a. ized, or both of said ovens may be used when, ever necessary.

When gas alone is used and the ,1 is lighted, the damper 33 may be turned a horizontal position across the flue passage 10 in which event a draft will be established in a downward direction between the parti tionwalls 12 and 12, through the opening in a 5 the latter, and along the bottom at th oven 9 and up the outerisid'e t and finally through the elbow 18 into 15, the heat finally escaping through t.= connection 17 And the coil 11 may heated when using coal as fuel, if the f 33 be turned upwardly againstthe an corner of the oven 9, for in this event, upper end of the coil is open the products combustion will ass downwai 1y 1: r v the coil between t e partition 12 thence out past he damper 33 a d the oven 10 and through the damper being understood that the latter is c It will be seen that I have pro-vial proved construction of cooking embodies in the one article a useful eon, tions of parts that are correlated in t action so that the stove may be all the'varying conditions arising with a vice of this nature.

The same stove may be used sideratum, especially in flats or P houseswhere the utilization of space Whenever it is n" .r shut off the gas for the purpose o the like, the fire box may be used It is to be understood that th 11 is intended to heat water for pur oses and it may also be used 9 device for hot water or steam hea terns.
