Manufacture of rottery w are.
We WILLIAM CARTLIDGE and HENRY CARTLIDGE of Burslem in the County of
Stafford Oven and Kiln Builders, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to
be as follows:-
Kilns of the class named although effective in burning articles placed in the box or
boxes are wasteful of fuel and as regards parts are shortlived.
The object of our invention is to secure economy in fuel, equal heating of the box
throughout its length and to render the parts more durable.
For this purpose we construct Kilns with one or more mouths or fire places on each
side and under the box, usually two on each side, and under, instead of having all the
mouths or fire places on one side as formerly, and we lead the flame and heating
gases through flues up the side of the box over the top down the other side and
afterwards upwards on the side to the exit or escape ways or chimney.
arrangement a smaller number of exit or escape ways is used.
By this

Agent for the Applicants.

We WILLIAM CARTLIDGE and HENRY CARTLIDGE of Burslem in the County of
Stafford, Oven and Kiln Builders 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:—
Kilns of the class named although effective in burning articles placed in the box or
boxes are wasteful of fuel and as regards parts are shortlived.
The object of our invention is to secure economy in fuel, equal heating of the box
throughout its length, and to render the parts more durable.
For this purpose we construct Kilns with one or more mouths or fire places on each
side and under the box usually two on each side, instead of having all the mouths or
fire places on one side as formerly, and we lead the flame and heating gases through
flues up the side of the box, over the top, down the other side and afterwards upwards
on the side to the exit, or escape ways or chimneys. By this arrangement a smaller

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS.
Figure 1. is a horizontal section at the line A A fig. 3 and figs. 2 and 3, vertical
sections, at right angles to each other of a kiln constructed in accordance with our
invention. a. walls of Kiln. b. b. mouths or fire places, two on each side. c. box,
d. flues led from the fire places up the side of the box to the top. e. continuation of
flues. d. led from the top of the box down the side through the passage and again
upwards at g. to the escape ways or chimneys i. j dampers. It will be seen that
the flames and heated gases from the fire places pass first upwards, then downwards
and finally upwards to the chimney. Thus the fire places heat a box six quarries
in length instead of requiring six narrow or three broad fire places as is the case when
the fire places are all at one side. Under our invention a box of nine quarries in
length would have six fire places, three on each side, and a box twelve quarries in
length, eight fire places, four on each side.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our invention
and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we claim is :—
Kilme constructed substantially in the manner and for the purpose set forth
