Improvements in Stoves.
I CHRISTIAN GOTTFRIED MÜLLER: of Chemnitz in the Kingdom of Saxony,
Empire of Germany, Manufacturer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention
to be as follows:-
The object of this invention is a stove capable of producing considerable heat
with great economy in fuel and of eradiating heat also downwardly to act on the
floor of the locality to be heated, while at the same time provision is made for
effecting a complete consumption of smoke.
The improved stove consists in the main of an upright casing having in its lower
portion a compartment, which encloses the fire grate and ash box and a fire
bridge. These parts are so placed, that the fire gases pass over and behind the
fire bridge down into a channel provided below the ash box, hence into
another channel on the same level, communicating therewith and being partly
separated therefrom by a fire-proof partition. From this latter channel they rise
through a vertical passage leading into the upper portion of the stove, which is
separated from the fire place likewise by a fire proof partition into a passage
occupying the whole breadth of the upper portion of the stove up to the covering
plate thereof. The fire gases thence pass through an opening into another vertical
duct, descend therein and pass through an aperture at the bottom to an adjoining
vertical channel, in which they again rise. From this channel the vapours flow
over a partition into and down another passage and, passing through an aperture
below again into a contiguous channel, they rise therein and finally escape through
a pipe at the top into the flue.
The inteuse heat absorbed by the bottom plate of the improved stove escapes
through apertures provided in a chamber underneath, into the room to be heated,
whereby also the floor and the lower strata of the atmosphere are heated.
The number of channels in the upper and lower portion of the stove may also be
varied according to requirement.
.
It is evident, that, by the relatively long way the fire gases have to pass before
reaching the flue, an extensive utilization of the heat produced and consequently
almost perfect consumption of smoke and great saving of fuel are effected.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Stoves.
I, CHRISTIAN GOTTFRIED MÜLLER of Chemnitz, in the Kingdom of Saxony,
Empire of Germany, Manufacturer, 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 has for its object to provide a stove, which produces considerable
heat with great economy in fuel, which heat radiating also at the lower portion of
the stove heats also the floor.
Beside the said great heating effect the improved stove is so arranged in its
channels that a complete combustion of the smoke takes place.
Referring to the accompanying drawing
Fig. 1. is vertical section along line v w Fig. 5,

page_text: Fig. 2. a vertical section along line y Fig. 5,
Fig. 3 a horizontal section along line A. B. Fig. 1,
Fig. 4 a horizontal section along line C. D. Fig. 1,
Fig. 5 a horizontal section along line E. F. Fig. 1,
of the improved stove, which is arranged as follows:
The fire gases produced on the fire grater with ash box k flow through the stove
as indicated by arrows viz. the hot air first flows over the fire bridge and arrives
in channel a, whence it proceeds along one longitudinal side of the stove into the
adjoining channel b, which is separated from channel a by a fire-proof partition, and
then rises through the passage c likewise separated by a fire proof partition from
the fire chamber, into the upper part of the stove, Fig. 3 cross section. The hot
air, after rising in passage c, which extends over the whole width of the stove, up
to the cover o enters through an aperture d into passage e, descends therein and flows
through an opening at the bottom into passage g. Hence it passes over the
partition down channel and through an opening at the bottom thereof into
passage 1, rising in the latter and escaping through pipe m into the flue.
The heating of the floor is effected in a simple and suitable manner by allowing
the intense heat received by the bottom. p to escape through apertures & provided
at the bottom portion of the stove, into the room.
The long passages which the fire gases have to flow through to pass from the fire
grate to the flue, and the peculiar arrangement of the passages, through which
the said hot air is guided ensure by the most abundant transmission of heat on the
long circuit a far more considerable heating effect than is attained with other stoves.
Also a complete combustion of the smoke takes place which results in a material
economy in fuel.
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 :
h
A. stove, in which the heat of the bottom p radiates through holes and serves
for heating the floor of the room, while by peculiarly arranged passages abce
and which are adapted to conduct the fire gases, a considerable heating effect and
complete combustion of smoke are obtained, substantially as set forth.
