COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Heating and Cooking Stove for Burning Gas or Oil.
We ALFRED JOHN STONELY of 28 Uridge Crescent, Tonbridge, Kent, and
ALFRED ACHILLES STONELY of 5 Audley Road, Richmond, Surrey, both
Joiners, 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 :-
This invention relates to stoves for cooking and heating purposes which derive
their heat froin the combustion of gas or oil, and is designed to supply a stove of
simple but effective construction, which can be heated either by oil or gas, as
preferred.
The stove consists of a central chamber forming the oven, with a gas burner or
lamp on either side of the interior, connected to a gas supply or reservoir for oil,
such reservoir being attached to a cast bed plate, said burners have chimneys of
glass or mica, above which are flues for carrying off the vitiated air, and which flues
may pass upwards through a boiler for heating water if required.
The oven is fitted with shelves at the ends of which space is left for the burners
and the door is furnished with ventilators and has a glass panel whereby the
articles being cooked can be examined without opening the door.
The details of the construction of our improved stove will best be understood
by referring to the accompanying drawings in which
Fig. 1 shows a front elevation, Fig. 2 a front sectional elevation and Fig. 3
shows a side elevation of our improved stove.
Fig. 4 shows a cross section of the stove on the line 1-2 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 5 is a cross section on line 3-4 of Fig. 2.
Fig. 6, is a sectional elevation of our improved gas burner.
Fig. 7 is a plan view of same with the spreader u removed.
Fig. 8 is a view of the same from beneath showing inlets w of air tubes k.
Fig. 10 is a plan view of the stand or base of the stove on the line 5-6 of
Fig. 1.

reservoirs, and substituting a gauze wire bottom when used for a warming stove
only. The cold air then passes through same from below, through the oven, and
discharges through the ventilators b, b, into the room.

page_text: 7. There is ready access to the oil reservoirs for refilling and cleaning.
8. In the construction of our burners great economy of heat has been studied.
For burning gas a flexible tube can be connected to any ordinary gas supply. .
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is :-
:-
1. In a stove for cooking or heating purposes the adaption of same for burning
either oil or gas, whereby both these heat producers or either of them can be
employed, as herein described and set forth.
2. In a stove for cooking or heating purposes, the special form of burner, air
supply, chimney and flue interchangeable for oil or gas and the introduction of
same inside the oven as herein described and set forth.
3. In a stove for cooking or heating purposes, the special arrangement and
construction of parts whereby the illumination of the oven inspection and
ventilation of same, adaptation of stove for various uses and great economy of fuel
are ensured, as herein described and set forth.
