. FIREPLACE-HEATER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 29 1917.
Application filed June a, 1916; Serial a... 101,585.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Jon'N M. Si nnn a citizen of the United States, residing at Fort Branch, in the county of Gibson and State of Indiana, have invented new and useful Improvements in Fireplace-Heaters, of
which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to a heater, and more particularly to the class of fire place heaters or furnaces.
The primary object of the invention is the provision of a heater or furnace of this character wherein the same can be conveniently placed within the fire chamber of a fire place for the purpose of conveying heat to a room or rooms, the heater or furnace being rendered more simple in construction and efiicient in purpose than the ordinary furnace when located in a cellar or basement of a house.
Another object of the invention is the provision of a heater or furnace of this character which is thoroughly reliable and efficacious in its purpose, strong, durable and inexpensive in manufacture and installation.
Other objects will be in part obvious and in part hereinafter set forth.
The invention accordingly consists in the features of construction, combination of elements and arrangement of parts which will be exemplified in the construction hereinafter described, and the scope of the appli cation of which will be indicated in the appended claim.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a front elevation of a fire place showing the heater or furnace constructed in accordance with the invention installed; a
Fig. 2 is a vertical transverse sectional view thereof;
Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional elevation;
Fig. 1 is a sectional view taken approximately on the line 44 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 5 is a sectional view on the line 5-5 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 6 is a sectional view on the line (36 of Fig. 1.
Similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views of the drawings.
Referring to the drawings in detail, A designates generally a fire place preferably formed from brick, and B the fire chamber therein, while C is the mantel wall of the ordinary well known construction. Arranged within the fire chamber B is a heater body 10 preferably made from metal having a fire pct 11 in its lower portion and a grate 12, while below this fire pot is an ash pit 13 adapted to receive an ash panlt for the collection of ashes from the heater, although if preferred the bottom of the fire chamber B can be provided with a dump grate so that the ashes can be dropped into the cellar of a house in the usual manner. Mounted upon the front of the body 10 of the heater are the doors 15 and 16 respectively, the set of doors 15 when opened permittingaccess to be had to the interior of the body 10 of the heater so that coal can be poured into the fire boX 11 thereof while the doors 16 when opened will give the proper draft to the heater for the combustion of the fuel therein.
Formed within the fire place A is a heat distributing chamber 17 which communi cates with the chamber B through the open top of the latter and in the front of this fire place A at the bottom thereof are cold air inlets 18 for communication with the chamber 17 while near the top of the fire place and leading from the chamber 17 are hot air outlets 19 which distribute the hot air to a room.
Leading from the body of the heater 10 is a smoke flue 20 which extends within a chimney as usual.
Leading from the top of the chamber 17 and through the shelf portion of the mantel C is a hot air flue 21 which terminates at any suitable point for the distribution of heat and this flue is provided with a regulating damper 22 of any approved type so that by the use of this flue 21 heat can be distributed into one or more rooms as may be desired.
The heat collected by the chamber 17 radiates through the body of the heater 10 and is distributed from the said chamber 17 through the outlets 19 into the room, as will be clearly apparent.
Arranged upon the body 10 of the heater is a hot water tank 23 from which leads a suitable discharge faucet 24 so that water can be drawn from the tank when required, the faucet being valved as usual, and the water may be introduced into the tank in any suitable manner. The heat from the body 10 of the heater will heat the water contained in the tank.
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawsings, the construction and operation of the herein described fire place heater will be each of the passages of the side walls, a heat readily apparent and, therefore, a more excollecting chamber located below and contended explanation has been omitted. necting with said horizontal passage, a heat 15 Having thus described vmy invention, I outlet above said chamber, .damper con- 5 claim: trolled openings for said passages and a In combination, a fire place comprising heater within the fire place. back, side and top walls, the side walls be- In testimony whereof I afiix my signature. ing each formed with a vertical passage extending from the point adjacent the base of JOHN M.
