We GEORGE HENDERSON and DAVID MONIEL of 193 Blackfriars Road London
in the County of Surrey Engineers do hereby declare the nature of our said
invention for IMPROVEMENTS IN THE ARRANGEMENTS FOR VENTILATING BILLIARD
AND OTHER ROOMS to be as follows:-
These improvements relate to the ventilating of Billiard and other Rooms, by
the arrangement of flues or tubes in or about the ceiling, and employing the heat
generated by the illumination power employed, to extract the heated air from such
rooms through such flues or tubes.
My said improvements consist of constructing a flue with branches or inlets at
various parts thereof, and fixing the same in or near the ceiling and terminating
in a chimney; and to this flue I attach another flue with branches or inlets, which
likewise terminates in the chimney, the ends of these branches are of a doome form,
and these are arranged over the gas or oil burners employed to illuminate the
room, to receive the heat generated therefrom, which heat in passing through such
branches into the main flue, heats the flue first described to which it is attached.
By these means, the heated air in such rooms is extracted therefrom through
such flues, and ventilation obtained by the heat generated by the illumination
power employed.

and other Rooms.
I GEORGE HENDERSON and DAVID M°NIEL of 193 Blackfriars Road London in
the County of Surrey Engineers, do hereby declare the nature of our Invention
for IMPROVEMENTS IN THE ARRANGEMENTS FOR VENTILATING BILLIARD AND OTHER
ROOMS, and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
These Improvements relate to the Ventilating of Billiard and other Rooms by
the arrangement of flues or tubes in or about the ceiling, and employing the heat
generated by the illuminating power enployed to extract the heated air from such
Rooms through such flues or tubes.
Our said Improvements consist of constructing a flue with one or more branches
or inlets at various parts thereof, and fixing such flue or tube in or near the
ceiling with the outlet end thereof terminating in a chimney, and to this flue or
within it we attach another flue with branches or inlets the outlet end of such
flue also terminating in the chimney, and the ends of the branches that are
arranged over the gas or oil burners employed to illuminate the room are of a
doom or cone form to receive the heat generated by the illuminating power, which
'heat in passing through such branches into the main flue to which they are
attached heats the air in the flue first described to which it is attached or arranged
within.
By these means the heated air in such Rooms is extracted therefrom through
such flues, and ventilation obtained by the heat generated by the illuminating
power employed.
One or any number of lights may be employed each having a branch connected
to the main flue to receive the heated air from the illuminating power, and an
outer tube to receive the air from the room; all the outlet ends of such flues or
tubes terminating in a chimney or up cast shaft.
In order that the nature of our said Improvements and in what manner the
same are to be performed may be more fully understood, we will proceed to
describe the Figure on the Sheet of Drawing hereunto annexed.
Figure 1 is a longitudinal view in section of the arrangements of the flues or
tubes with branches showing two lights or burners employed, a is the outer flue
or tube to receive the air from the room having two branches b b with the outlet
end of such tube terminating in the chimney c, and d is the flue or tube with two
branches e e to receive the heated air from the gas or oil burners ff, and the
outlet end of this tube also terminates in the chimney c, which tube is here shown
arranged within the tube a, and g is the gas or oil pipe to supply the burners ff.
and is the ceiling line of the room.
As our said Improvements are capable of various modifications without departing
from the principle thereof we do not restrict ourselves to material, dimensions, or
the precise form or placement of the several parts thereof, or to the number of
tubes or flues to be employed.

page_text: Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
Invention and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is
1st The arrangement of two or more flues or tubes that are attached to each
other or one within the other, with one or all but one of such tubes to receive the
heat generated by the illuminating power, and one or all but one of the other
tubes to receive the air from the Rooms, the whole of such flues or tubes terminating
in a chimney or up cast shaft; substantially as and for the purpose herein before
set forth.
GEORGE HENDERSON.
