ALBERT HALLOWELL AND ABEL AT. ATHERTON, 0E LOWELL, MASSA- CHUSETTS.
Letters .Patent No. 296,228, dated October 26,1869.
GAS FLAT-IRON.
The Schedule referred to irlI these Letters Patent andi-making part of 'che salme.
To all whom 'it may concern.- .Y
Be it known that we, ALBERT HALLOWELL and ABEL T. ATHERTON, both ot' Lowell, in the county of Middlesex, and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain lnew and useful Improvements in Gas Flat-Irons, 0f which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part ot this specification, in which- Figure 1 represents a plan of the interior, and a portion of the exterior, after the cover la has been removed. Y
Figure 2 is a longitudinal vertical section, and.
Figure 3, a plan oi' the under side of the cover, with the reflecting or radiating-platef arranged thereon.
Figure 4 is a modification oi' our invention.
'lhis invention has for its object to heat the. hollow liar-iron by the ilalne of 'burning gas, without creating `smoke or oii`ensive odor, by supplying the tlame with oxygen, to support free combustion through the tubes of the burners.
This invention consists in the combination of two devices, both of which are patented, and one to each of the applicants-the first to ATHERTON, in 1866, August 7, and the second to HALLowELL, in 1868, March 17; and this invention is intended. as an improvement upon these two, by coinbiningvthem, as shown in the drawings.
The construction of the hollow flat-iron or sad-iron, and the arrangement of the heat-conveying pillars j and the chimney A, the rear stand B and the handle C, may be about as shown in the drawings; and the mode or means of heating a hollow sad-iron, and which we have found best adapted for that purpose, consists of a series of about three ofthe peculiar gasburners here shown, and these burners are connected or formed on the side of a gas-receiver and distributer, D, which has a hub, a., rising from its top, to receive a supply-pipe, E, to the outer end of which we apply a iiexihle tube, F as usual.
lhe receiver D, and about half the length of the burner-tubes, are wholly outside'of the hollow sad- II'Ollf.
The tubes enter through the rear end G.
lhe centre tube b is shouldered against the outside of the eud-piece, and a nut, H, screwed on to the tube inside oi this end-piece, holds the burners and the gasreceirer and supply-pipe in position.
'ihe gas passes from the distributor, through a very small orifice, c, to the much larger one, g, and out at the end Z of each burner-tube.
Atmospheric air, to supply the llame, enters a sidey orifice, e, passing through the centre y with the gas which, when burning, creates a strong draught through each burner-tube, acting like a blow-pipe, to intensify the heat, and carry it forcibly tothe forward extremity ofthe cavity within the iron, and to each pillar, as shown by arrows.
The pillars, being foi-ined or cast with the bottom h, transmit the intensiiied heat readily and rapidly to the bottom and face of said iron, and keep it heated to the desired degree.
The pillars are not in solid connection with the top 1 plate f or retlector, as'n the former invention, but the plate merely rests on some of the pillars, and this retards the upward action of heat, and helps to keep it in the lower space; but there must be an outlet for the. surplus heat, and for the atmospheric air consumed bythe gas-dailies.
For this purpose, we forni an opening, I, through the rear part oi' the plate f, and remove a portion ofi the forward end of the latter, directly under the chimney.
The disconnected nlate f measurably prevents the passage of heat to the cover It, and a shield, m, arranged beneath the handle, and covered on its top side with textile fabric, or some other suitable substance, n, not only shields the hand o'f the operator, but the woollen or other fabric, or other suitable covering, prevents burning the hand it' brought into contact with the top, of the shield.
A hole, p, through the rear end Gr, is convenient for lighting the gas, but no hole or opening is necessary in the end or side-s otl the flat-iron for any other purpose, since all the air required to support combustion passes through the burner-tubes, with the gas entering the hole e, which, in all cases, is wholly outside of the tla-t-iron.
It is evident that a hollow sad-iron could be heated with burners like these shown, if no posts or pillars were arranged within it, by applying suoli burners on a slight incline, that is, with their inner ends inclined or pointed slightly toward the bottom, as shown in iig. 4, and this would heat the bottom'or face of the iron in a suitable manner.
VIn this invention, we do not claim a hollow sad-iron, nor do we claim a series of burners arranged beneath a disk; but
lVhat we do claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination, with a hollow flat-iron, as described, 0f a sci-ies of gus-burners, constructed, arranged, and applied substantially in the manner and for the purpose speciied.
