GILES F. FILLEY, OF ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI.

COOKING-STOVE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 235,346, dated December 14, 1880. Application filed September 13,1880. (Model) To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, GILEs F. FILLEY, of St. Louis, Missouri, have made a new and useful Improvement in Cooking-Stoves, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a view, in perspective, showing that part of the stove with which the'improvement is immediately connected, the damper being turned down and portions of the outer and inner walls beng broken away to exhibit the interior construction; Fig. 2, a plan of the stove, showing the top plate partly removed and the damper turned down; Fig. 3. a view similar to that of Fig. 1, the damper being turned up; and Fig. 4 a view similar to that of Fig. 2, the damper being turned up.

The same letters denote the same parts.

The present construction is an improvement in three-flue cooking-stoves. By means of it the capacity of the stove'at its top is increased, and in stoves extended longitudinally, such as six and eight hole stoves, the heat'currents, as they pass along the top, are kept from drawing toward the center of the stove, and the heat is thus applied more advantageously to the openings and vessels in the stovetop, at the same time the body of the stove, or all that portion below the level of the oventop, does not need enlarging.

Referring to the drawings, A represents the improved stove having the fire-place B, the flue 0, extending from the fire-place, the diving flues D D, side bottom fines, E E, the center bottom flue, F, ascending flue Gr, flue-space H, and oven 1. A division-strip, K, extends from the side a of the stove to the side a. It is arranged on the farther (measured from the fire-place) side of the diving flues, and the parts are arranged and proportioned so as to bring the strip just between two sets of the openings in the top plate, c of the stovesay between the set L L and the set L L. This enables all the openings L L L L L L L L to be brought compactly together, as shown, and thereby the'capacity of the stove at its top is increased.

MM represent a two-wing damper, by means of which the .direct communication between the flues G and H can be closed-that is, there are openings d (1 just beneath the strip K, through which the heat-currents can pass from the flue 0, across the upper ends of the flues D D, into the flue-space H, and this is the course the heat-currents are allowed to take when it is not desired to heat the oven, but only the upper part of the stove, and as indicated in Figs. 1 2; but to heat the oven, the damper is turned up, as shown in Figs. 3 4, and the heat-currents then pass from the flue (J down the diving flues D D and through the flues E E, F, and G, into the space H.

Now, as thus far described, the construction is similar to that of an improvementin ranges patented to David H. Nation, June 1, 1880, and numbered 228,270. In the construction last referred to the exit from the space H is into a flue leading along the side a ot' the construction, and from opposite the space H to or toward the center of the side a.

In the present construction the flue last described is omitted. and the escape N is located directly at the farther end of the space H and at the center of the stove end, as shown, and the products of combustion pass from the space H directly into the escape N.

The ascending flue G is raised and constructed at its upper end as shown at g, giving thereby a larger out-let into the space H.

I am aware of and disclaim the construction shown in patent granted Crowley and C-haur berlain, February 29, 1876.

I claim The combination, in the stove A, of the fines C, D D, E E, F, G, and H, and the dampers M M, said flues O and H being separated by the strip K, said ascending flue G being extended at g, and the flue H, having the escape N, arranged at the rear end of the stove, substantially as set forth.
