PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Chimney Tops for House Chimneys.
I, WILLIAM DALLING of 58 High Street Barnstaple in the County of Devon-
shire Merchant do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
-
My invention relates to a chimney top for ordinary chimneys, constructed of
suitable material, such as clay or metal, and in such a manner as to cause an
uniform and steady upward draught in the chimney in whatever wind or weather.
On the top of the chimney top I fix a cover A, raised a suitable distance above
it to permit the escape of smoke. Below this a series of circular outlets B formed
by means of conical pieces supported inside from below. And from the lowest part
of the side of the chimney top, I cause a number of tubes C to project in an inclined
direction downwards. The whole as shown in the accompanying diagram; wherein
is set forth the elevation view in such a manner as to exhibit the different parts,
hereinbefore described, and the arrangement thereof, to fulfil the purpose of this my
said invention.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Chimney Tops for House Chimneys.
I, WILLIAM DALLING of Rolle's Quay Barnstaple Merchant, 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 invention relates to improvements in chimney pots and has for its object to
provide an appliance for curing smokey chimneys by preventing the smoke which
may be beaten down by the wind from entering the chimney and passing into a
room.
In the accompanying drawings Fig. 1 is an elevation and Fig. 2 a vertical section
of my improved chimney pot.
The said pot consists of a cover a furnished with four central openings a¹
through which the ascending smoke escapes into the atmosphere as shown by the
arrows 7.
This cover a is supported by the conical part which is carried by the second
conical part bearing upon the body d of the chimney pot, the cover a the conical
parts and and the body d being all cast integrally together and made of earthen-
ware or other suitable material. The body d is furnished with four radical outlets c
which together with the passages formed between the conical parts b and b¹ and
between the conical part and the body d will convey outside in the direction of
the arrows w any ascending smoke beaten down by the wind at a', so that such
smoke will never be able to descend below the outlets c in the body d and hence
will never enter the chimney provided with my improved pot.

page_text: 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 wha
I claim is:-
The improved chimney, top arranged and constructed substantially as herein
described and shown and for the purpose set forth.
