PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements relating to Heating Apparatus for Horticultural and
other Purposes.
I, CHARLES Toore, of 1 Stepney Square, Stepney Green, London, E. Hot
Water Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
=:
My invention relates to the heating apparatus for horticultural and other
purposes, of the class as described in the Specification of my Patent No. 1741387
and has for its object to provide means whereby the heat is more quickly and
evenly obtained.
In accordance with my invention I provide a stove or heater together with
the circulating pipes and feeder of any suitable formation, but preferably of the
formation shewn in my previcus Patent Specification above referred to. To the
outside of which I secure, at any suitable distance therefrom, a separate concentric
cover or casing, thus forming as it were one pipe within another.
My improved stove as above described can either be heated by gas or by an oil
lamp, the hot water arising therefrom is caused to travel through the inner set of
pipes and up through the purifier provided at its outlet before entering the room;
the water to be heated is introduced at the feeder and caused to circulate in the
intervening space provided between the inner and outer set of tubes.
A suitable tap or cock is provided in the bottom of the outer casing to draw off
the water when required.
The above described stove can also be used with advantage where steam
is required to be generated in sick chambers notably those for patients suffering
from bronchitis, as the steam arising from the water will percolate through holes
provided in the cover of the feeding chamber.

Improvements relating to Heating Apparatus for Horticultural and
other Purposes.
I, CHARLES TOOPE, of 1 Stepney Square, Stepney Green, London E. Hot
Water 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 :-
My present invention relates to the heating apparatus for horticultural and
other purposes, of the class described in the Specification of my Patent
No. 174137, and has for object to provide improved means whereby the heat is
obtained with much greater rapidity, and evenness than has heretofore attainable.
The device which I employ in accordance with this invention is shown in
the accompanying drawing being a sectional elevational view of my improved

page_text: apparatus. The essential feature in which consists in surrounding the heating
pipe or flue a throughout its course and at a suitable distance therefrom, with the
water jacket or casing 6 thus forming as it were one pipe arranged concentrically
within the other.
Heat is applied as shown at c either by gas or an oil lamp or lamps. The
heated air or products of combustion, travel in the direction of the arrows, through
the inner set of tubes a, and before escaping at percolate through the purifying
chamber d containing vegetable charcoal or other purifying medium.
The water to be heated is introduced at the feeding end e of the device, and
circulates throughout the intersticial space or concentric jacket or casing
aforesaid between the inner and outer set of tubes.
Provision is made at the bottom of the outer casing as at g for drawing off the
water when required.
Apart from the above described apparatus being used for horticultural aad other
applications, for heating only, it may be availed of with advantage in cases where
steam is required to be used in sick chambers say such for instance and especially,
as would occur in the treatment of patients suffering from bronchial affections
where it is necessary to have the atmosphere of the room partially charged
or moistened with steam, as well as heated. Where my improved apparatus is
availed of for the last described particular purpose the steam would make its exit
into the room through perforations formed in the cap h on top of the feeder e of
the device.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is.
The herein described apparatus the essential feature whereof consists in the
internal heating pipes a being surrounded by the water jacket or casing b
substantially as herein set forth.
