Improved Arrangement of Oven Flues for Producing a Regular and
Equal Distribution of Heat for Baking Bread, Biscuits, Cakes,
and like Goods.
I, HENRY WAITESIDE, of 232 Uxbridge Road, Shepherds Bush, Middlesex,
Bread and Biscuit Baker do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
The object of this invention, is to arrange the flues of an oven suitable for baking
bread, biscuits, cakes, and like goods, in such a manner, that the heat from the fuel
and the gases arising from combustion are fully developed and utilized to their
greatest extent, the heat being fairly distributed to produce an equality of temperature
at all parts of the oven for properly baking the goods placed in the oven.
For the purpose of my invention, 1 build an oven of the ordinary materials and
below (centrally) I construct a furnace and flue, the latter rising towards the rear and
then merging into two side flues, which again rise in their length towards the front
on either side of the furnace but below the oven. At this point two vertical passages
are formed for connecting the lower return or side flues to two upper flues also above
the oven and leading to the back of the structure. The two top flues are connected
by a bend to two other flues which return to the front and are common to a top
central flue leading to the uptake or chimney.
The flooring, the side walls, and the roofing of the oven and the flues may vary
in thickness.

Improved Arrangement of Oven Flues for Producing a Regular and
Equal Distribution of Heat for Baking Bread, Biscuits, Cakes,
and like Goods.
I, HENRY WHITESIDE, of 282 Uxbridge Road, Shepherds Bush, Middlesex,
Bread and Biscuit Baker, 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 :-
The object of this invention is to arrange the flues of an oven suitable for baking 5
bread, biscuits, cakes, and like goods, in such a manner that the heat from the fuel
and the gases arising from combustion are fully developed and utilized to their
greatest extent, the heat being fairly distributed to produce an equality of temperature
at all parts of the oven for properly baking the goods placed in the oven.
For the purpose of my invention, I build an oven of the ordinary materials, and 1
below (centrally) I construct a furnace A and flue B as in the annexed drawings
Figures 1 and 2, the flue B rising towards the rear and then merging into two side
flues C, D, which again rise in their length towards the front, on either side of the
furnace but below the oven. At this point two vertical passages E, F, are formed for
connecting the lower return or side flues C, D, to two upper flues G, H, above the 1
oven and leading to the back of the structure.
The two top flues G, H, are connected by bends I, J, to two other flues K, L,
which return to the front and are common to a top central fluo M leading to the
uptake or chimney N.
The flooring, the side walls, and the roofing of the oven may vary in thickness, the 2
flues being of the same or of different dimensions.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is :-
;-
The particular arrangement of flues or passages shown on the annexed drawings 2
along which the heat and products of combustion from a lower central furnace A may
travel in a combined and yet divided manner to a mid-channel M and uptake N as
and for the purpose described.
