PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
A Bracket or Wall Stove.
I, HENRY HERBERT WRIGHT of Oakhurst, Solihull, near the City of
Birmingham, Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be
as follows:-
Heating and culinary stoves as ordinarily made, are both portable and adapted
when in use to stand upon the Hoor of a room, or rest upon a table, and which said
stoves are removable from place to place, are connected to the gas supply (in the
case of a gas stove), by a long india rubber tube, or flexible pipe, which is a
constant trouble by being always in the way.
The object of my present invention, is a bracket or wall stove, constructed in
such a manner, that the same is always in its place when required to be used.
The essential features of the said stove, which is adapted for heating or culinery
purposes, consists essentially of a fixed or hinged stand or table, projecting from,
and secured to, a wall or other surface, and with a fixed or swinging burner part,
fitted thereunder.
In carrying ont my invention in connection with a plain wall stove, I provide the
same, with a projecting stand or table, pierced about its middle, and with the rear
side of it, provided with uprights, or wall plates, or flanges, which are ornamented
or shaped in any desired manner, and which plates or flanges, are connected by
suitable means, to a wall or surface, by which the said stove is intended to be
carried.
Disposed immediately under the middle piercing of the stand or table, comes the
burner part, fitted with a regulating tap, and connected to the lower plate bracket,
by a swivelling joint, which admits of the said burner part, swinging aside, or flat
to the wall, so as to be out of the way.
Connection with the burner and gas supply, is made by metallic tubing, whilst
the stove is made preferably of cast metal, integral, or in parts, in which latter
case, they are connected together by well known means, resorted to in the arts.
The support, or table, which is shelf like in figure, has around its opening, rest
or supporting blocks, pegs, or the like, for allowing the necessary space between
the plain top surface of the table, and the underside of a vessel being heated.
The table, or shelf-like support, instead of being fixed, may be hinged, so as to
turn up or down, and so lie flat, when the same is not in use.
In a corner stove, I propose to make the same in the form of a corner open
fronted cupboard, or in other words, the shelf-like support is arranged between
angular sides or bracket plates, which fit within the corner of a room, and lie flat
to the adjacent walls, diverging therefrom.
These corner bracket stoves, may if necessary be made in parts, which admit of
folding flat.
My invention is applicable to all stoves for heating and culinery purposes, and
although I prefer to employ gas as the heating medium, yet hydrocarbon, or other
volatile oil may be employed instead.
As a modification the stove may be made to turn upon a joint, or be made to
slide into, or out of position against the wall.
Dated this 27th day of October 1890.

A Bracket or Wall Stove.
I, HENRY HERBERT WRIGHT of Oakhurst, Solihull, near the City of
Birmingham, 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 relates, to domestic and like heating stoves, and particularly
stoves in which gas is employed as the means for heating.
Stoves, as ordinarily made, are adapted to stand upon a table, floor or the like,
when in use, and moreover, they are removable from place to place, and are con-
nected to the gas supply (in a gas stove) by india-rubber or flexible tubing, and
which tubing is a source of constant trouble, by being in the way, when the said
stoves are in use.
The object of my invention, is a bracket or wall stove, so constructed and
arranged, that the same is always in its place, when required to be used.
In carrying out my invention, connected to an attachment, or in connection with
a bracket, or wall gas stove, I make up the same of a carrier plate or plates,
having a pierced leaf-like rest or table, projecting outwardly from it, and upon
which an article to be heated, boiled, or the like is placed, and under which, a
swinging or other gas burner comes. Thus, the bracket or wall stove, consists of
a metal bracket, with attachments for the securing of the same to a wall or other
vertical surface, and which bracket is fitted with a suitable gas heating burner,
or burners, placed immediately under a pierced middle part of the leaf or
rest shelf.
Connection with the burner and gas supply, is made by a fixed gas pipe or by
india-rubber tubing.
The table, or shelf-like support, instead of being fixed, may be hinged, so as to
turn up or down, in order to lie flat when the same is not in use, or for transit.
In a corner stove, the shelf-like support, is arranged between angular sides, or
bracket plates, which fit within the corner of a room, and lie flat to the adjacent
walls.
These corner bracket stoves, may if necessary be made in parts, which admit of
folding flat.
Although I prefer to employ gas as the heating medium, yet hydro-carbon or
other volatile oil, may be employed instead of gas.
Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings, represents in perspective, a bracket-wall
gas stove, or a gas heating bracket stove, constructed and arranged according to
one form of my said invention.
This said gas heating stove, consists primarily of a wall, or other like attachment
plate, with a rest, table or support, jutting or projecting outwardly at right angles
to it, and under a pierced middle of the said rest, the burner part of a swing
burner comes.
The table or rest part may be made to fold, or may be made detachable, so that
when the stove is out of use, the table or rest part can be folded flat to the
attachment plate, or to the wall, or the same can be removed, hence economising
space.
The said stove, when in position, is affixed at any convenient height upon a wall
within a room, and preferably in an out of the way place.
Figure 2 represents a longitudinal vertical section upon the dotted lines A B
Figure 1.
a is an attachment or carrier plate, secured to a wall or other vertical surface by
nails, screws, or other holders, or equivalents of them, passing through holes or
piercings made through the said attachment plate or carrier, and taking into the
vertical wall or other surface, to which the gas stove is required to be hung,

page_text: suspended or connected. is a leaf or shelf-like rest, pierced or left open about its
middle, and jutting or directed horizontally from the attachment plate or carrier a,
and secured to the said plate or carrier, by hooked ends of the table or rest,
taking rearwardly through holes a', made through the bracket or carrier a.
At the junction of the hooked ends with the table or rest, are abutment
shoulders, which take their bearing against the front side of the attachment
plate below the holes, wherethrough the hooked ends pass, while the said hooked
ends, abut and take their bearing against the inside parts of the attachment plate,
above the holes a².
The table or leaf-like rest, which is a stand upon which the objects or utensils
to be heated, are placed, is by the said connection, made detachable or folding.
The middle of the rest or table b, has a piercing, under which the swinging
gas bracket c, comes, when the same is in position for burning, and which bracket
consists of an arm c², burner part c³, swivelly connected end e', which takes and
works through eyes of a bracket c', and with the terminal end c³, having upon it,
one end of a flexible tubing d.
Figure 3 represents in vertical section, another form of bracket-wall gas stove,
constructed according to my invention. The said stove is shown with the table or
shelf rest folded, and with the gas bracket swung back.
Figure 4 represents a horizontal section upon the dotted lines CD Figure 3,
when the table or rest is horizontal, and when in use, as in Figure 5.
a is an attachment or carrier plate, secured to a wall, or other vertical surface,
by nails, screws, or other holders, or their equivalents, passing through holes or
piercings made through the said attachment plate or carrier, and taking through
the vertical wall or other surface, to which the gas stove is required to be connected
or secured. b is a table or leaf like rest, pierced or left open about its middle, and
directed horizontally from the attachment or carrier a, and secured to it by hooked
ends, taking through holes a², made through the bracket a, and with the
shoulders resting against the front side of the attachment plate, below the hole,
wherethrough it passes, while the hooked end takes its abutment against the inside
of the attachment plate.
The table, or leaf like rest, which is a stand upon which the objects or utensils
to be heated, are placed, is by the said connection, made detachable or folding.
When folded, it takes the position as in Figure 3, but normally, and when in use,
as in Figure 2.
To connect the table, or leaf-like rest to the attachment plate or carrier, place
the same against, and parallel to, the front side of the attachment plate, with the
hooked end in. the hole a, as in Figure 3, and on the bringing of the said table or
leaf-like rest horizontally, the necessary connection is made.
c is a swinging gas bracket, with arms, provided at its outer end with a
burner, coming under and opposite to the middle opening or piercing &, of the
leaf like rest b, whilst its inner end is connected to, and works swivelly within, a
socket c', whose pummel e, is connected to a fixed gas service d, let within a wall
or surface to which the bracket is attached.
Instead of the connection of the table or leaf-rest being made by a hook-joint,
the same may be made by a hinge or knuckle joint, with a stop alike unto ', in
which case, the said table or leaf rest, remains permanently attached to the
attachment plate a, but is capable of turning flat to it for economising space.
Figure 6 represents a bracket gas-stove, with a fixed table or leaf rest, con-
structed and arranged according to another form of my invention.
a is the
attachment plate, secured to a wall or other vertical surface, by nails, screws, or
equivalents, and is a fixed table or leaf rest, upon which articles to be heated are
supported.
Figure 7 represents in perspective, a corner bracket gas stove, constructed and
arranged according to a further form of my invention. The said stove consists of
angularly disposed sides or bracket plates, with a table or leaf like rest disposed
between outwardly directed branches of them, and upon which table or rest, objects

page_text: to be heated stand, and are thereby heated by a flame; passing upwardly through
an opening in the middle of the table or rest.
Figure 8 is a vertical section of Figure 7 upon the dotted lines E F, and
Figure 9 is a transverse vertical section upon. the dotted lines GH, looking
upwards.
a are angular sides or attachment plates, connected together angle-wise, and
secured within the corner of a wall or other surface, by nails, screws, hooks or
their equivalents. is a fixed table or leaf-like rest, having a piercing, within
its middle, wherethrough the heating flame, emanating from the burner of the gas
bracket c, upwardly passes, and heats the receptacles or objects placed upon the said
table or rest.
29
The said burner bracket, consists of an arm e², having at one end, a
"Bunsen
or other burner, and swivelly connected at the other. end e', to a supporting
bracket c', and with a flexible tube d, connected to the said swivelling end c.
By mounting the gas apparatus as described, the same admits of swinging out of
the way or into position, as may be required.
If necessary, the said corner bracket gas stove may be made to fold, by hinging
the attachment plates together, and providing the opposite sides of the table or
leaf-rest, with pegs, which take into eyes of lugs, carried on the sides of the plates
aforesaid; so that when the bracket requires to be stored away, or for transit, the
leaf-like sides, and the table support, fold flat one upon another..
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is
First A bracket or wall stove or a bracket wall stove for heating purposes,
consisting of an attachment or carrier plate, and a rest leaf-table, shelf, or support,
