PHILIP KLOTZ, OF BALTIMORE, MARYLAND.

Letters Patent No. 97,094, dated ll oce'mber 23, 1869.

IMPROVEMENT IN FIRE-PLACE S'I'OVES.

The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making pant of the same.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, PHILIP KLOTZ, of the ci Baltimore, in the State of Maryland, have inve certain new and useful Improvements on Top-Feed Fuel-Magazine Fire-Place Stoves; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, making part of this specification, in which Figures 1, 2, and 3, are different views of my improvement.

Figures 4, 5, 6, and 7, are different views of modifications of my improvement.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures.

' This invention relates to a new and useful improvement on fuel-magazine fire-place stoves, which have feed-openings through their upper ends, and also through the upper ends of their magazines, through which openings the fuel is supplied, and which have screen or perforated covers applied to their tops, for

hiding from view these tops, and also the covers there- I The nature of my invention consists in combining,-

with a movable screen-cover, or a movable part of a screen-cover, an impeifinated cover to a feed-passage, leading into the top ofa magazine, in such manner that said cover and screen, or part of a screen-cover, and saidcover are connected together, thereby allowing them to be moved from and returned to their places together, as will he hereinafter explained.

' The following description of my invention will enable others skilled in the art to understand its construction and operation.

In the accompanying drawings I have represented the upper section D of a fuel-magazine tireplace stove, and in fig. 7, I have represented a magazine, G, arranged within the section D, and having a feedpassage through its upper end, communicating with a feed-passage through the top plate of the said section D.

Other parts of the fire-place stove, not shown, are constructed in any of the well-known modes.

The two openings, that is to say, the one through the top of D and that through the top of G, communicate with each other by means of a chute, 0, shown in fig. 7, composed of .two sides and a bottom. The upper wallor side is omitted.

The cover I), which rests, when in place, on the top of section D, has a plate, 7), applied fast to it, which constitutes the cover to the upper portion of the chute c.

When cover I) is removed, the gas rising from the magazine G will he carried oli' over this magazine by the natural draught of the stove.

In figs. 1, 2, and 3, I have represented aperforated screen, which will cover the .top plate of the section D, and at the same time allow heated air from this top plate to escape through it into the room.

This sceen is perforated, and made concavo-convex,

so as to present a neat, ornamental appearance, and give a finish to the top of the stove, as well as to hide from view parts which are directly beneath it.

The screens shown in all the figures have the same general advantages as those above mentioned.

The screen shown by figs. 1, 2, and 3, is composed of three sections, B, B, and O. a

The two side sections are permanently fixed, while the intermediate section is movable, and may be provided with a handle, a, to allow of its ready removal.

Beneath the movable section, and attached toit by arms 0 e, or other means, is-the cover b, which, when in place, closes the entrance to the fuel-magazine, as

above set forth.

The fixed sections B B may be secured tothe frame or fire-board A, or to the top of the stove.

In figs. 4 and 5 there is but one fixed perforated section, having an opening through it which is covered by the movable perforated section 0, to which section the cover to the feed-passage is fastened, so that this cover can .be moved away with said section 0.

In figs. 6 and 7, the screen is made'in one piece, movable or removable with the cover 1) b to the feedpassage.

In all of these plans, it will be seen that the screen,

.or a section of the screen, is connected to the cover which is intended to close the feed-passage leading into the top of the fuel-magazine. By this means the inconvenience of handling two'separatc pieces is obviated.

Under thispet-ition I do not claim broadly the combinatioli of a screen with a top-feed fire-place stove;

but

- What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Let- Witnesses: 4
