Specification of Letters Patent. Mopllcstion filed May 13, will). Eerie No. 562,033.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that 1, JOHN P. BADEN- Iii ween, a citizen of the United States, residing at Seattle, in the county of King and State of vV'ashingtonJuwe invented new and useful Improvements in Steamenerators,

' of which the following is a specification.

My present invention has to do with steam generators, end is designed more perticu larlyas on improvement upon the generator constituting the subject. mutter of my Letilegrs-l utent No. 862,872, granted August 13, :L' 07. l

The object of the present invention is lac-provide a simple generator comprising o steam drum, a Water drum and s mud drum, connected together and communicating with cools other through interposed tubes, and

constructed and arranged in such-manner.

that all strains incidental to contraction and expansion are taken. care of and prevented from deteriorating the generator.

The invention will be best understood by reference to the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying illustration. of one specific embodiment thereof, while its scope will be more perticulurly pointed out in the claim appended,

in the drawings which are hereby mode it port hereof Figure 1 is s. View, partly in longitudinal vertical section and partly 1n elevation, of my improved wsitentubc steam generator. Fig. 2 is u :i'ront eietstiou of the generator with a. portion of the front wall of tile casing removed, Fi 3 is s deteii View showing by full lines be arrangement of one longitudinal beam in the channeled seat utthe upper end of one upright, and.

the interposition of the said beam between the said upright undone of the saddles.

Similar letters designate corresponding ports in both views of the drawings, referring-to which:

A is the casing of the-generator; This casing may be, of the constrtictiouillustrsted or of any other construction consonant to the purpose of my invention, and is provided at a with an outlet for products of combustion.

B is a furnace located in the lower front portion of the casing ondha'vlng tlie'ususl, grate D and bridge wall a.

G and ID are lower and uuper, suitably supportcd bullies, and E is u true-averse eruns, wnemuo'ron. H

buille Orwell located in the up 1' rear portion of the cusin the suid bezsfl, D and E being preferub y arfau 'ed as shown, relative to each other and tie furnace B and outlet a, in order to assure the products of combustion taking the course indicated by arrows in Fig. 1 in passing between the furnace and t c outlet.

l ll are horizontal and parallel l-beams superposed on uprights G and disposed in channeled seats a at the upper ends of said uprights.

ll is the steam drum; 1, the water drum, sud J, the mud drum, all three of which-ore wronged transversely of the casing, essliown. The steam drum H is supportcd'b 7o saddles K, preferably of cost-iron, Wliic rest on the iii-booms F, while the Water drum is hung from the said beams F through the medium of bolts L, suitably connected with the beams and drum.

interposed between end connecting us weil as reflecting communication between the steam drum H and the Water drum 1 is u, group of Water-tubes M, and connected with the mud drum J are twogroups ll sud, lif w of Water tubes, which serve to suspend the mud drum from the stem: driun end the Water drum, respectively, us well us to comb? lisli communication between the some; the group F, by preference, corn rising e. greater number of tubes than cit lei group M or'll in about the proportion illustrated.

R is :1 water column, and S and T are lower and upper pipes which effect conimuniczition between said column and the inso terior of the steam drum H in the manner shown in Fig. 1 or in any other approved manner. l The three drums H, l and J supported and connected together in the manner de- 95 scribed constitute u simple sud l'iighly eili: cient generator; the l'utterbelng largely due to the foot that'the circulation of steam and, Water through the Water and steomjeontsm:

iug elements is continuous end wilih o miui itiu mum of breaks and interruptions." It will also be noted here that by reason oii'tlie' drums bcin connected through nterposed tubes and tie steam drum and water drum being supported, by e metal framework- While the, mud drum is hung through the tribe's from' tlie steam drum and Water drum end solely supported by sold tubes, ell

rom shortening the v the generator.

I to the fact that gitndinal beams standing strains due to contraction and expansion are "rovided for and are effectually prevented period of usefulness of This is duein large measure the arrangement of the lon- F in the channeled seats d atthe upper ends of the. uprights Ur,v enables the said beams F to work or move end"- wise between the uprights and the saddles, and hence permits of expansion and contraction of the tubes M and P, notwiththe connection of the drum I to the beams F through the medium of the hangers L.

While I have shown and described one form of my invention, it is to be understood that I am not limited to the details or the form'or relative arrangement of parts disclosed, but that modifications may be made therein without departing from the spirit thereof.

Having described my invention, What I claim and desire to secure ent, 1s:

A steam generator comprising uprights L saddles resting on the said longitudinal,

beams, hangers connected with the beams, and spaced drums connected together and communicating with "each other; one of the said drums resting in the said saddles, and

another drum being connected to the said hangers.

Intestimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in presence of two subscribing witnesses.

JOHN P, BADENHAUSEN.
