MANUFACTURING COMPANY, OF

VAPOR-STOVE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 372,706, dated November 8,1887.

Applicatit n filed January 31, 1887. Serial No. 226,046. (No model.)

To aZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, HENRY RUrrnL and DAVID E. DANGLER, of Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented a certain new and Improved Vapor- Stove; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and complete descrip tion thereof.

Hy invention, while relating more especially to thehcating devices connected with the oven of the stove, may be used for other heat ing purposes in connection with a vapor stove or heater.

The nature of the said invention consists in the peculiar construction of the burner and in the devices connected therewith for lighting said burner and heating the oven for cooking.

That the invention may be more fully seen and understood, reference will be had to the following specification and annexed drawings,

making part of the same.

Figure 1 is a side elevation of the stove, showing the frame, oven, oil tank, and pipeconnections with the burners. Fig. 2 is a transverse horizontal section of the oven in the line 00 a, Fig. 1, with the deflector removed. Fig. 3 is a vertical transverse section of the same. Fig. 4: is an enlarged transverse section of the burner, showing the pipeconnections.

Fig. 5 is a side view ot the burner enlarged,

and Fig. 6 is an enlarged top view of the burner.

Like letters of reference refer to like parts in the several views.

The general form of the stove-frame is seen at A, Fig. 1. However, other forms adapted to the purpose of the invention may be used.

The reservoir B and pipes 0 leading therefrom to the combustionchamber or vapor-generator may be of the usual form and arrangement in connection with the burners D. The hand-wheels a b 0, Fig. l, are in connection with the valve-rods, by which, in connection with the valves, (not shown,) the heat of the 5 burners is controlled. The pipe E, Figs. 1 and 2, is connected at its upper end with a vaporgenerating chamber, (not seem) which pipe may be in open connection with a vapor-generating chamber attached to one of the stoveburners under the top plate. The lower end of the pipe E terminates openly in the elongated chamber F, Figs. 3 and 4, of the burner G, Figs. 2, 4, and 5. This oblong burner is provided with a foraminous cap, 11, Figs. 4, 5, and 6, screwed in place, as seen in the drawings. The burner is located beneath the oven J, as seen in Figs. 1 and 3, being supported by the pipe E and L. There is an opening, I, Figs. 2 and 3, in the bottom plate for the admittance of air into the oven for the burner. 6c, Directly over the opening lis adetlector,d,supported upon cleats, for the distribution of heat as it passes from the burner into the oven, which oven is provided with a door, K, and the usual shelves or racks upon which to place the articles to be cooked. Extending from the outside through the wall of the oven to apoint over the burner G is an igniting-pipe, L, the inner end of which is supported in a bracket,

M, connected with the burner and provided with a projection, N, provided with an inclined end extending partially over the top of the burner, as seen in Fig. 4.

It will be noted that the vapor conveyed to the burner G from the generator by the pipe E when not ignited will pass up through the perforated cap IIinto the oven. Apart ot' the vapor will enter the projection N of the pipe L, and escape at the outside end thereof, Figs.

1 and 3. Now, on applying a light to the 8c outer end of the pipe the vapor will beignited, and the ignition will extend back through the pipeand tire the burner G without opening the oven-door. The vapor only escapes through the pipe L when the burner is not ignited, so that there need be no odor in the room when the burner G is lit. By this means of lighting the burner G within the oven from the outside thereof the lighting of the burner is rendered much more convenient than by opening the oven-door and extending the arm and hand into the oven with a light for that purpose, as it at times occurs, through neglect or otherwise, that the vapor or gasoline being allowed to escape from a burner sometimes 5 more or less enters the oven, when, on applying a light to the burner within the oven, an explosion may ensue, or the hand or arm of the person be burned or seriously injured. Ordinarily by extending a light into the interior of the oven there will be more or less danger of burning the hand by the sudden ig .nition of the vapor as it escapes from the burner.

20 which is over the burner undercut obliquely to the face of the burner, whereby the vapor arising from the burner is caught and conducted to the outside of the oven, all substantially as set forth.

2. In combination with the oven of a vaporstove, a burner consisting of an elongated box having a supply-pipe running lengthwise thereof and the foraminous cover on its top, and an igniting-pipe supported at its inner end on a bracket on the burner-box and extending from the wall of the oven to the outside, all substantially as described.

In testimony whereof we affix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.

HENRY RUPPEL. DAVID DANGLER.
