UNITED STATES PATENTv OFFICE.
WILLIAM BENNETT, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
RADIATOR FOR FIREPLACE-GRATES AND FRANKLIN STOVES.
Specicaton of Letters Patent No. 16,459, dated January 27, 185'?.
To all fwhom 'it may concern:
Be it known that I, IVILLIAM BENNETT, of the city, count-y, and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Radiator to be used in Connection with the Common F ireplace-Grate and the Open Franklin Stove; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full and exact description thereof, reference being' had to the accompanying drawings, making a part of this specication.
Figure l is a perspective View and Fig. 2 is a cross section at the line A A of Fig. l.
The nature of this invention consists in providing the common fire place grate and the open Franklin stove, with a perforated cover, so arranged as to cover the entire top surface of the fire. It may be placed directly upon the fuel in the grate, or be elevated any distance above it, so that in all cases it shall come below the throat or draft-Hue of the grate or stove in which it is used, the object being to prevent the action of the cold air upon the top of the fire and to retain the heat in the body of the fuel until the whole is consumed. The top of the fire being thus shielded from the direct action of the current of cold air as it rushes to the flue, is preserved in a state of vivid incandescence, instead of presenting the black and half consumed appearance always prevailing in the old method. The whole mass of fuel being kept in a state of perfect ignition every thing` that will burn is entirely consumed, and the trouble of sifting the ashes consequently avoided, and a given quantity of fuel will continue to burn for many hours longer than when burned in the ordinary manner. The gases arising from the coal during combustion being detained under the cover, when t-he heat is most intense, are entirely consumed there, or escaping through the perforations burn in brilliant jets of flame upon the upper surface of the radiator,
thus supplying a large increase of heat to the apartment.
I make my improved radiator of cast iron or any other suitable material, and of any required form to fit the fire place or grate on which it is to be used. With a ange of any depth I may deem proper eX- tending around the ends and front of the same, and resting upon the re directly, or sustained by the top bar of the front grate, and resting against the re back, so that the whole shall come below the Hue of the stove, or the throat of the grate in which it is used, leaving the passage to the flue or throat unobstructed, so that the current of cold air may pass to the chimney without coming in contact with the top strat-a of fuel in the grate or stove, as when burned in the usual manner.
I do not claim as my invention the perforated plate described in the patent issued to S. T. Savage Oct. 28, 1856. Neither do I claim the use of wire gauze and perforated metal dampers in any form located in the flues of stoves or throats of chimneys nor the gas apparatus of A. Bruce. But- IVhat I do claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters Patent is- A perforated metallic plate or radiator, fitting the lire place, with a flange of indefinite depth and resting upon the fuel directly, or upon the top bar of the grate, and against the fire back, in such manner that the whole shall come below the Hue of the stove, or throat of the chimney, in which it is used, leaving the passage for the cold air to the chimney Hue free and unobstructed, constructed and arranged substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
WILLIAM BENNETT.
