i `The Sehedule referredl to these lLetters Patent and makingprt of the same.

To all whom it 'may concern.: i

Be `it known that I, NICHOLAS S. VEDDER, of Troy,

in the county of Rensselaer, and State of New York,

havev invented new'and useful Improvements in Water-Reservoir" (looking-.Stoves or Ranges; and I do hereby declare the following toA be a full, clear, and

Y exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and the letters of reference lmarked thereon,forming part of this specification', iu

My invention conssts,irst, in the extension of the ascending and descending oven-heating lues above the top plate. of the stove, and against the upper portion of the front,` of the'reservoir,and communicating with' aue or heatingp V of thereservoir and theback plat-e, of the stoven p My iuventi'onals'o consists'in the descending and ascendingues against vthe front part of the resering oveu-heating nues.v

- And my invention'further consists in the dampers,

arranged'to regulate the passageof the gases of combustion through the ascending and` descending dues, between the hack part of the stoveand the front of To enable otherstskilled in the art to make and4 use my improved stove, I will proceed to describe its cpuistruction and operation, reference beingv had to the accompanying drawings. i

Aris an ordinary stove, provided with ascending and V descending oven-heating ilues B B, anda draughtf'ue,

C.` These lines are extended beyondI thc top plate of the stove, as seen at b b c, and form, as it were, a con,r

tinuationof the ovenfheating and draught fines.

On the rear of thelbacli plate of the stove is-cast, or `otherwise secured, a rim or llange, D, which forms an air-space when the `reservoir is attached to the stove. This 'air-space is divided into. three compartments, by partitions E E, which 4extend from theI top of the extension-ues to within a short distance of the bottom of the `rim I), as seen in iig. 3.

A lamper, F, is arranged within the draught-flue O,

tudinal vertical section -of' my improved water-reservoir cooking-stove;

hambr between the `lower portieri maggto regulate the draught and escape of heat, and air other damper, G, is 4placed withn'the central line, formed by the partitions E E, at the rear of the stove. The'top plate of the stove, with its .extension-lines, (see g. 4,) is placed upon the stove, andthe reservoir I-l, with an extension, I, is securedV to the rear end ol'l the stove, iu the following manner:

The extension I is made of a depth equal to the rim D, forming theair-s'pace, and coming in close contact witlrthev partitions E E. The top ofthe exten-Y ;sion I is cover-ed, with the exception of a stove-pipe hole, K, immediately over the draught-flue C, the bottom edgeoilthe extension I fitting down lclose onto the top iig. 1. v

The partitions L L, forming the Aoven-heating and draught flues, are returned a'short distance over tlie oven-plate, forming a ilange for the damper F to close against.

lhe operation of my improved stove is as follows:

The damper F being open, the heat, generated in' the front of the stove, will lpass around the arm and escape through the draughtiueC, the rising heat, which escapes the action of the draught, risingup the extension ascendingtlues 11, heating the upper portion of thefront of the reservoir, and passing down into the iiues m mf, behind the backV plate of the stove, and up into the centre flue n, heat the lower partof the front of the reservoir, the centre flu'e n being closed by the damper G. i

When it is desired to intensify the heat against the Y' front of the reservoir, the damper F is closed, forcing all the heat into the ascending landdescending ovenheating ucsfrom whence it escapes vinto thc ilues b b, is then drawn into the iiues m m, along and bctween the ends of the partitions and the bottom rim D,intothe central lue n., and finds an exit (if the4 damper G beopened) into the extension draught-flue O, and out throughthe exit K. i

kIt will thus be seen, that by the use of the .dampers tion of my improved stove, lVhat I claim as new, and desire Ato secure by Letters Patent, isl The lines b c b, above the top plate of the stove, and in line with the ovcn-h`eating `and draughtlues B -O B, against the upper part of the front side of the reservoir H, inv combination with the heating-fines Also, the ascending and descending dues 'in m, in

plate of the stove, as' seen most ,clearly at v on n, on, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.`

combination with the ascending and descending ovenheating ues B C B, in the mannenaud for the purpose set forth.

Also, the water-reservoir, having its back and ends naked or uncovered, and its front Acovered by the lues m fn, m, when the said lues are in connection with the oven-heating lues, as hereinbefore described, for the purpose set forth.

Also, in combination with the stove and reservoir,

when constructed and arranged as described, the dampers F and G, operating substantially in the manner .y

and for the purpose set forth.

In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand,

this 7th day of June, A. D. 1869. t
