Specification of Letters Patent. Appiicationled June 14, 1910` Serial No. 566,77-.

To all whom 'it may concern:

Beit Aknown' that we, PERRY FRAIZER and ENooii A. NATION, citizens of the United States, residing'at Newcastle, in the county vented a new and useful 4Heater, of which the .following is a specification. The object of our present invention is to combustion wherein is supplied by an oillamp.

. A-heater embodying ourfsaid invention will be first fully described, and the novel@ features thereof then pointed out in the :Referring to the accompanying drawings,

similar reference characters indicate similar of the characterin question; Fig. 2 a central vertical sectional View, on an enlarged scale,

seen when looking inthe direction indicated by the arrows in the dotted line 2 2J in Figs. 3," l, 5 and 6; Fig. 3 a topl or plan View withthe cap 'or upper plate removed, showing' the, partsas 'seen when looking downwardly from the 'position indicated by the dotted.line 3 3 in Figf2.; Figs, 4, 5 and 6 horizontal sectional views as seen when dicatedby the dotted lines 4 4:', 5 5, and G 6, respectively, in Fig. 2, and Fig. 7 a detail or fragmeptary vertical sectional viewas seen when-looking in the direction indicated by the arrows in the dotted line 7 7- in Figs. 2 and 4. v

This ceiling or wall 23 also forms the bottom wall of a second'chamberfor boiler 24; which is designed to'contain Water, and is preferably keptabout two-thirds full,.-oru p toa pointv the level of the lo'at'25'' Said float operates ingress of additional Water throughpipe 27.

The action of the heat upon the water contained within the boiler-clmmhcr 24. .has

the e'lect of'geuerating steam, which passes up through openings at llfin the overhead wall or ceiling 'of said.boiler-chamlufr, and enters an annular chamber 32 ha ving radial hollow' ribs which have the effect of greatly .increasing its external superlicial 'f The formA of this steam chamber isarca.

best shown in Fig. (3, the boiler-chamber" is of an oblong. charactcr, and is rentrally positioned between two lue openings .4l and 42 which'occupy the remainder of the cross-sectionalarea of 'the strliclure. These openings unite in the annular jlue elisituated between a water taule-28 and the steam chamber 82, and the products of combustion from thelamp Ypassup #fuif-)ugh said openings and liuc, and escape. through the top ist of the heater. The necessary air to produce effective combustion is supplied through a series of fine perform-ions in the wall of the base surrounding'the burner of the lamp:

Our improved heat-er -is preferably made in two parts. and the packing or gasket il is interposed between them, andthe two parts are secured together by screws o r bolts When necessary for mrposes of clean ing, repair or otherwise, t. iese' two parts can the 'taule as fastas it is converted into Steaua, 'The heater isthus adapted 4tofoperatefor a considerable period without replenishment. Tlus heater, as a whole, is smiplyjand easily` constructed, and produces a' very.

large amount 'of heat in proportion to the fue] consumed. It is 'alsoconvenient and' port-able. 'It is customarily provided with y a handle 61 by whichit may be carried. from place to place. 7

Having thus fully described our said invention, What .we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, istei l.l The combination, 1n a heater, of a Water a steam chamber Surrounding I said Water Supply tank, a boiler chamber ar-r-v supply tank,

ranged below the Water supply tank and communicating ,withthe Water, supply tank and steam chamber, ineansi'or controlling the How of water from'the Supply tank to the boiler, a combustion chamber arranged below the boiler and provided with an out` let passage for theproducts of combustion,

said outlet passage leading freinl the coinbustionicharnber between the Water supply tank and the Steam chamber, and a burner arranged in the combustion chamber.

2. The combination, ina heater 'of a coinbustion chamber, a burner contained therein, a boiler. chamber arranged above said conibustion chamber, a Water -supply tank arranged above said boiler chamber, a conduit leading from said 'Water supply tank to said boiler" chamber, a valve Within said boiler chamber controlling 'the outlet from trolling said valve, and an annular Steam chamber, having radial hollow ribs, ar-

rangedabove and in communication With said boiler chamber and spaced from the -water supply tank, the combustion chamber having an outletpassage lying between the Water-snpplywtank and steamv chamber.

3.-'1he coinbinationfii-i` a heater, of a combuetion-chai'nber,'a bur-ner contained therein, a boiler chamber arranged above said coinbastion chamber, Water supply tank arsaid conduit into the boiler chamber, a'lioat con- 1 said boiler chamber and spaced from the 45 Water tank to :t'orm alpaseage for the products 0iV combustion from the combustion chamber, said steam chamber being pro- -vided with a safety opened by excessive steam pressure and to 50,

'valve adapted to be be seated'by gravity. 1

Li. The combination, in a heater, of a com` buetion chamber, a burner contained there` in, a boiler-chamber arranged above eaidcombustion cha1nber, a water-supply tank 55 arranged above said boiler-chamber, a conduit leading from said Water-supply tank to said boiler-chamber, a valve Within saidboiler-chamber controlling said conduit, a

steam chamber arranged, above :said boiler- 6 0 chamber and communicating therewith and surrounding said vva-tersiipply tank, said steam chamber and Water-supply tank being l spaced apart to iorin a passage i'or the products of combustion therebetween. 6
