Improvements in Heating Stoves, applicable also for Boiling or
Cooking, and for Heating Irons and other Articles.
GEORGE HOWARD CARTLAND 44 Waterloo Street Birmingham Barrister, and
JOHN HOWARD Ross 35 Wills Street Lozells Birmingham, Lighting Engineer
do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
Our invention consists in a new and improved construction of ornamental casing
for a heating or warming stove when gas oil electricity or the like is used as the
source of heat, and is especially applicable to that form of stove in which the
burner or source of heat is placed at the back of an ornamental front usually made
to represent a fire grate, and having sides and top either cast or formed in one
piece with it or joined thereto.
To carry out our invention we divide the casing round the front and sides in a
horizontal line above the top of the source of heat or chimney thereover, these two
parts are jointed together at the back of the sides, each part at the dividing line
having formed therewith or attached thereto teeth bars or the like which when
the stove is used for heating rooms or other similar purposes, are in position one
above the other, and hid from view by the front, sides and top, but when the top
part is folded back constitutes a horizontal grid or grating over the burner or source
of heat for the purpose of carrying vessels for hoiling or cooking, or irons or other
articles to be warmed.
Dated this Thirteenth day of January 1896.

GEORGE HOWARD CARTLAND, 44 Waterloo Street, Birmingham Barrister, and
JOHN HOWARD Ross 35 Wills Street, Lozells, Birmingham, Lighting Engineer
do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to
be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:-
Our invention consists in a new and improved construction of ornamental casing
for a heating or warming stove when gas, oil, electricity or the like is used as the
source of heat, and is especially applicable to that form of stove in which the burner
or source of heat is placed at the back of an ornamental front usually made to
represent a fire grate, and having sides and top either cast or formed in one piece
with it or joined thereto.

page_text: To carry out our invention we divide the casing round the front and sides in a
horizontal line above the top of the source of heat or chimney thercover, these two
parts are jointed together at the back of the sides, each part at the dividing line
having formed therewith or attached thereto teeth, bars or the like, which when
the stove is used for heating rooms or other similar purposes, are in position one
above the other, and hid from view by the front, sides and top, but when the top
part is folded back constitutes a horizontal grid or grating over the burner or source
of heat for the purpose of carrying vessels for boiling or cooking, or irons or other
articles to be warmed.
We will now proceed to describe our invention with reference to the accom-
panying diawings in which Fig. I is a front elevation, Fig. II a side elevation and
Fig. III a plan, in each of the figures the same letters indicate the same parts.
A is the top front part which is made to fold back and has projections or teeth
cast in one piece with it or otherwise secured to it so as to form one half of a grid
or trivet over the stove E.
B. is the bottom front part made to represent a fire grate and with teeth or
projections G similar to those on part A and which form the other half of grid or
trivet when top part is folded back as shown in Figs. II and III.
C. is the base upon which the stove E rests and which is secured to the bottom:
part of front B.
D. D. are the joint pins upon which the top part A hinges.
E is an ordinary oil heating stove placed in position under the teeth or
projections Fand G and which illuminates the leaded lights or other transparent
part H, Fig. 1 to represent a fire grate, it is obvious that a gas or other burner
may be used instead of that shown without in any way altering the invention.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion and in what manner it is to be performed; we declare that what we
. claim is
1st. In a stove for oil or gas, teeth or projections or their equivalent attached
to parts A and B or their equivalents constituting a grid or trivet when the stove
is required for boiling or cooking substantially as described and as illustrated on
the accompanying drawings.
2nd. In a stove for heating, boiling and cooking whether for use with gas, oil
or other illuminating or heating agent, the part A or its mechanical equivalent
made to fold back and having teeth or projections or their equivalents constituting
a grid or trivet when the said part is folded back, substantially as described and
as illustrated on the accompanying drawings.
3rd. A stove for oil, gas or other illuminating or heating agent constructed
substantially as and for the purposes described and illustrated on the accompanying
drawings.
