COOKING-STOV'E.

The Schedule referred to in these Letten; Patent and making part of the same.

To all whom. fit may concern:

Be it known that I, J AMES GRIMES, of Portsmouth, in the county of Scioto, and State of Ohio, have invented a new and useful Improvement" in Cooking- Stoves; and I do hereby declare that the followingis a full, clear, and exact descriptionl thereof, which will enableothers skilled in the arttomake and usethe same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specification.

r).his invention relates to new and useful improvements in cooking-stoves, and consists in the arrangement of the fines beneath and back of the oven, and in the divided long cross-centre and air-tubes, as hereiuafter more fully described.

In the accompanying drawing- Figure 1 represents a vertical section of the stove, through the line x a: of fig. 2.

Figure 2 is a top or plan view of the stove.

Figure 3 is-a view of the back end of the stove, with the back end plate broken away, to show the fines beneath the oven. i

Figure 4 is. a section, through the line y y of fig. 2, showing the divided cross-centre rest.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

A is the stove-oven.

B is the fire-box.

C is the ash-pit, beneath the grate.

E is the top of the stove.

F is the central fine, beneath the oven.

G G are the side flues.

H is the flue, from which the smoke escapes from the smoke-pipe collar I.

J J represent the parts of the divided long centre, which may be made in two or more pieces.

The inner ends of these parts are supported on the v open end of an upright tube', K, which connects with a horizontal tube, L, which passes directly through the stove, so that the air may enter at either end, and circulate through the tube.

N N represent the plates which form the cent-re and side fines, beneath the oven.

O represents one of the upright ues which oonnect the. central flue with the ue H.

The plates N N and the upright'ues O are placed at an angie of' about thirty degrees, (more or less,) as represented in iig. 3.

. By this arrangement of theiiues, more heat is utilized around the outer surface of the bottoni plate of the oven, thereby greatly improving the operation of the stove, as regards the time required, and evenness or uniin'inity in baking.

It represents a pot-hole in the top of the stove, directly over the upright fines, through whclrtlie fines may be cleaned without removing the pipe from the collar I.

S is the damper-rod.

Having thus described my invention,

What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. The air-tubes K and L, the latter passing through the stove, either above or below the oven-top plate, and the former conmiunicating therewith, and supjporting the inner ends of the divided 'cross-centre J J substantially as described.

'2. The arrangement (in an 'inclined or angular position) of the fine-plates beneath the oven, and at the back ot the oven, substantially as and for the purposes described.

JAMES GRIMES.
