HOT-AIR FURNACE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 309,495, dated December 16,1884.
Applieaiionfiled Octoher25, 1853. (No model.)
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, DAVID llIOCREARY 'tUssELL, a citizen of the United States, residing at \Vashington, District of Columbia, have invented new and useful Improvements in Hot-Air Furnaces, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in hot air furnaces, and has for its object to simplify and cheapen the construction of such apparatus, and render it effective in the highest degree by causing the air to be heated to come in direct contact with the greatest pos sible heating-surface.
My invention consists, prin'iarily, of a combustion-chamber made in cylindrical sections adapted to be placed one upon the other, each of said sections having formed therewith flanges, the peculiar shape of which flanges adapts them, when the parts are in place, to
form two continuous flues for eonducting the air in the process of heating, and in various details of construction, all. as will be herein after full y set forth and distinctly claimed.
Figure l is a perspective view of the invention with the outer casing shown in dotted lines, and Fig. 2 is a view of the circumference of the tire-pot spread on a horizontal plane.
In the drawings, A represents the combustion-ehamber, which is made up of the cylindrical portions (1, all of which are cast with radial flanges b flush with their top. Each of these flanges extends circumferentially about threeeighths oi the circumference of the combustion-chamber, and laterally to the inner face of the outer casing, which is made of a size to insure a tight joint at this point. Thus it will be seen that when the sections are in place there will be a series of annular passages extending around the combustion-chamber. In order to connect these passages and form a continuouslyascending fine, I east in tegrally with each section a downward continuation, c, of the flange 1) sufficientl y long to rest on the top and near the end of the flange of the next lower section, so that a passage around any given section is connected to the passage next above by the projection c of the next section above resting on and forming a I tightjoint with one'end of one of its flanges,
while the downwardly-projecting end of the opposite fellow flange joins with the end of a flange of the next lower section, and so on. Similar connections are made on the opposite side, thus forming two continuous conduits for conveying air from the point of influx to the point of discharge. The pieces 0 are shown as perpendicular, but they may be made slanting or curved, so as to allow the air to pass through the lines with less friction at the upward turns. The base of the furnace is formed of the double-walled portions 0 and the plate B. The portions 0 have secured to them the grate and form the ash-pit. Between their double walls are left sufficient spaces to form passages for conducting atmospheric air to the heating-flue. The plate 13 forms the top of these passages, and is provided with a suitable number of openings to insure the free passage of the air. This plate also forms the base for the support of the sections forming the combustion-chamber, and has a flange for the support of the outer casing, D,which is secured on by riveting to the upturned rib h. The diii'ercnt sections a are secured in place by headed screw-bolts d, a suitable number of which are passed down through previouslyprepared holes in the flanges, and their threaded ends take into internally screwthreaded openings in the plate B. The joints between the different sections of the combustionchamber are rendered tight by cement by interlocking edges or the like.
In order to most advantageously utilize the heat of the lost products of combustion emanating from the burning coal, I form the upper portion, E, of the combustion chamber of comparatively thin material, preferably sheet metal, so that the heat of the smoke, gases, &c., is easily radiated to heat the air in its passage to the dischargeopenings e,which are provided in the outer casing. This drum has an opening for the reception of coal,elosed by a door (not shown) hung on the casing.
The advantages of my invention will be readily appreciated by those skilled in the art, particularly in relation to the combustionchamber, for by casting it in sections I avoid the great difficulty usually attending the cast ing of so large a body as a complete combustion-chamber intact with a spiral flange, as has heretofore been done.
Having thus described my invention, What 5 I claim is- 1. In a hot-air furnace, a fire-chamber composed of cylindrical sections,each section having two integral horizontal radial flanges in the same horizontal plane with a space he- IO tween their contiguous ends for the passage of chamber composed of a series of sections, at, having formed integral therewith horizontal and vertical flanges b c, and gaps or spaces in the horizontal flanges I) at the point of juncture with the vertical flanges c, in combina.
tion with a cylindrical outer casing, D,Whereby a series of heating-flues are formed, substantially as and for the purpose set forth.
In testimonywhereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two subscribing 25 witnesses.
