page_text: I, EMIL KAUFFMANN of 57 Farringdon Street, in the City of London, Importer
do hereby declare the nature of my said invention for "IMPROVEMENTS IN HEATING
STOVES AND IN THE OIL BURNERS APPLIED THERETO to be as follows:-
رو
This invention has for its object the construction of a heating stove in such a
manner as to be not only effecient but exceedingly economical in its application
and convenient for use, and especially with regard to the improvement effected in
the arrangement of an appliance to the burner.
The stove according to this invention, consists of a base made of cast or stamped
sheet iron or other metal to which a burner of the "mitrailleuse" type is attached
in the centre. Upon the base plate and surrounding the burner there is a
cylindrical case or jacket made in two sections, the upper section being fitted into
the lower one. The upper section has a disc at its lower part so as to form a
partition between it and the lower section. The disc or partition has in its centre
a hole which is surrounded by a short cylinder that receives the upper part of the
lamp glass. Around this cylinder there is a sheet metal casing shaped like the
frustrum of a cone, the top being closed and the bottom open. This casing is.
either suspended from the inside of the top or is made to stand upon its bottom
edge, which is scalloped, upon the partition. The lower section has an opening in
its side to allow of access to the burner, aud in the upper section there are a
number of perforations through which the air after being warmed by its passage
through the stove, can pass into the apartment.
The improvement with regard to the burner consists in fitting to the lower or
fixed part of the mitrailleuse burner two or three wires which pass through the
gallery supporting the lamp glass, and are connected together by a ring that
encircles the chimney. On proceeding to light the burner the gallery has simply
to be pushed or pulled up, when by virtue of the friction on the wires it will
remain in such a position as to enable the operator to light or otherwise manipulate
with the burner without the necessity of removing the chimney, or disconnecting
the burner or the sections of the stove from one another. On lighting or adjusting
the burner the gallery can be replaced with equal facility.
The stove can be made of iron, or earthenware, or a combination of both, or
other suitable materials.

Improvements in Heating Stoves, and in the Oil Burners
Applied thereto.
I, EMIL KAUFFMANN of 57 Farringdon Street, in the City of London, Importer
do hereby declare the nature of my invention for "IMPROVEMENTS IN. HEATING
STOVES AND IN THE OIL BURNERS APPLIED THERETO" and in what manner the
same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by
the following statement, reference being had to the accompanying drawings and to
the letters and figures marked thereon, that is to say :-
This invention has for its object the construction of a heating stove in such a
manner as to be not only effecient, but exceedingly economical in its application
and convenient for use, and especially with regard to the improvement effected in
the arrangement of an appliance to the burner.
In order that the invention may be more easily understood drawings are attached
hereto of which the following is a description, similar letters referring to the same
parts in each of the views,-Fig. 1 is an elevation of the stove complete. Fig. 2 is
a transverse sectional elevation of the same. Fig. 3 is a sectional elevation of a
modification of the middle portion of the stove and Fig. 4 represents the improved
appliance to the burner whereby the burner may be lighted without taking the
chimney off.
The stove, according to this invention, consists of a base A. made of cast or
stamped sheet iron or other metal to which a burner B of the "mitrailleuse" type
is attached or stationed in the centre. Upon the base plate and surrounding the
burner there is a cylindrical case or jacket made in two sections C and D, the upper
section C being fitted into the lower one D. The upper section C has a disc E at
its lower part so as to form a partition between it and the lower section. The disc
or partition has in its centre a hole F which is surrounded by a short cylinder G
that receives the upper part of the lamp glass. Around this cylinder there is a
sheet metal casing H, shaped like the frustrum of a cone, the top being closed and
the bottom open. This casing is either suspended from the inside of the top or is
made to stand upon its bottom edge, which is scalloped, upon the partition. This
casing may be perforated as at I, I, if found desirable: The lower section D has an
opening J in its side to allow of access to the burner B, and in the upper section C
there are a number of perforations L through which the air after being warmed
by its passage through the stove, can pass into the apartment. On the top of
upper section is placed the cover M. The whole.is surmounted by the basin N
coutaining water which by its evaporation moistens the air which has been
warmed.
The modification exhibited in Fig. 3 shows the cylinder Gas made of fire clay
with a flange O, and separate from the section D, so as to fit into the hole F and
rest upon the partition E.
The improvement with regard to the burner consists in fitting to the lower or
fixed part of the mitrailleuse burner two or three wires P. P which pass through
the gallery supporting the lamp glass, and are connected together by a ring R
that encircles the chimney.-On proceeding to light the burner the gallery has

page_text: simply to be pushed or pulled up when by virtue of the friction on the wires it
will remain in such a position as to enable the operater to light, or otherwise
manipulate with the burner without the necessity of removing the chimney, or
disconnecting the burner or the sections of the stove from one another. On
lighting or adjusting the burner the gallery can be replaced with equal facility.
The stove can be made of iron, or earthenware, or fire clay, or partly of either or
all these or other suitable materials.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is
1. The construction of stoves having a partition E cylinder G and casing H
arranged as herein described and shown on the drawings.
2. The construction of burners with the wires P, P, gallery Q and ring R for
the purposes before set forth and as herein described and shown on the drawings.
