CULINARY APPARATUS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent N o. 89,613, dated May 4, 1869.

To all whom it mag/concern:

Be it known that I, BENJAMIN WARDWELL, of the city and county of Providence, and State of Rhode Island, 11a-ye invented a new and use ful Improvement in Boilers for Culinary Purposes 5 and I do hereby declare that the following is afull, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, makin gpart of this specification, in Which- Figure lis a vertical section of my improved boiler or culinary apparatus. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the improved portion of the same.

Similar letters indicate corresponding parts in both the figures.

I y invention consists in constructing the boiler with a chamber beneath and around the pit or portion which enters the hole in the stove-plate, so that the steam which is generated by the culinary process may be conveyed through a suitable tube, extending fromthe top of the boiler into the said chamber beneath, and thence escape into the stove or chimney instead of into the stove-pipe or into the room, as heretofore. A

In the drawings, A is the boiler, such as is lordinarily used upona stove, the top plate of which is represented bythe lines marked Dv D in Fig. l, for general culinary purposes. Upon one side of the walls of the said boiler there is cast or otherwise formed a tube, G,.

opening near the top into the interior of the boiler, to receive the steam and fumes generated in the vessel, and opening at the bottom into the recess or chamber E, which may be formed beneath the bottom of' the boiler by extending the walls or shell A of the boiler below the bottom surface of the same to the extent, say, of three-eighths of an inch. This, it will at once be seen, elevates the bottom of boiler from contact with the stove-plate D, upon which it rests while in `use over the tire, and thus affords a space, E, between the said bottom and stove-plate, into which the steam may be conducted by a tube like Gr from the top of the boiler, so that the steam Will escape into the stove as fast as it is generated, at the same time furnishing a greater resur face on the bottom of the boil--r than is possible with the bottom of the boiler resting at and closely upon the stove-plate, as in the ordinary construction of such boilers and apparatus, Which exposes to the action of the lire only so much of the pit L as extends beneath the stove plate within `the boiler-hole.

Separately the tube G for conducting the l steam from the top to the bottoni of the boiler is not claimed..

' Ola/im.

A boiler for culinary purposes made substantiallyin the manner herein described, so that there shall be a space or chamber, E, formed between the bottom of the boiler and the stove-plate, into which the steam passing from the boiler through the pipe or conduit Gr is discharged, as and for the purposes shown and set forth.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification before two subscribing witnesses.

BENJAMIN WARD WELL. Witnesses:

ISAAC A. BROWNELL, WILLIAM BRoWNELL.
