Be it known -heL'HoMAs E. FoeALsAQG, citizen oi"- the Uiiffed States, resifinj* in *He city and county o @an Francia i S of Califoiiie, have invented new ems. izseui improvements in Eieciic H'eaeis, of which he oiowing is specilceioii.

rhis invention relates to au electric heater and particuiariy pe'teiiis no {eviee for heating Waer and other' iiquidsy menons of eiec'ziicif'ay.

it is he objec of iiiis invention to pio-A vide L simpie, cheap, pieeticail, sanivw' mez'soii electric heate meaiifi i weite? ci? @they iiquiffis may be .e ing cii'cuaied between, and in dire' taci; with, non-metaiic, non-coiiwisive eiee- @miei such" as carooodiese electrodes so thee wiii be no meii ,to come iii Contact with the iuid feo be heaed..

The use of metaiic electrodes, Where ailowed io come in direct conzic; with the Weiler 'to be. iiefied, is obieciionzibe es the meai coirodes and also d-eeompcsee undef the action of tile elect'ie current/ causing eeetlolyic oi' oiiemicai action to ake piace with che` result hai; he liquid becomes poiiuted., These objeotionebie 'femmes are eliminaed in this device of/Vibe use ofeiirbon eleciodes which, by mason of u heii being fait N aiion-metaliic natue, have no injurious ei feet, Qu on the conrary Wiii tend so im prove the quaiities `of the waiter beiiigiieaed, Jdius rendering his e. saniuy device.

The iiiveiitioryconsists of "heparts and the' construction and combination opuiis :is hereinafter more fully c'escifibed mi claimed, having leferenoe to 'ehe eccompanw ing diawings, in' Which- Figure l is an eievationai View of he invention. Fig. 2 is a. vertical secion. Fifi".

Such @lecci-"e- 105 a position off the carbone 2 2. esrmay place Wil in no way prove injurious to the liquid being heated, es Carbon has no deleterious effects on most liquids.

This construction of exposed non-metnllie, electrical heating units may be employed in :i variety of Ways end for a variety of imei, as, not only as en ordinary water heater, bei for heating ilzitirons, ee., where ihese e posed electrodes :ire surrounded by e body of liquid from which Athe heat transmitted To the iron.

'Having thus described my i1iveniio11,\\'lnit claim and desire to Secure by Letters; Patent ie-a l. An immersion electric healer comprising a handle having zi tnhnhir end forni ing :i Chamber, zi parir of exposed, eiirhon electrodes each having,i one end iixed to the chamber of the handle, ineens` for holding)- the electrodes upzirt ro provide an intermediae miller heating space, and n performed inelosnre for 'he electrodes, Suid inelosiire being` fixed io the i'iihnlfir end olf the handle.

in ii'nniersion electric limiter ei'inipiising :i handle having :i tuhiilur ond forming :i chamber, :i lmii oi expoed enrhon elev-Y trodes7 erich having one end fixed lo die Chamber of the handle; ineens for holding ihe electrodes; :ipfirt io provide :in inierniedi :ite wzier henling space, :ind :i noninoiillie shell having one end iX-ed to ihe handle, Said shell inelossing' the pair of electrode4 :ind having openings to admit Water thereto.

In testimony whereof l. here herennto ses niy hond in the presence oil wo Siiberihing witnesses.
