We, JAMES LIND, JOHN LIND, and JAMES DUNCAN, GLILIES, LIND,, trading as
The Liverpool Lamp Coy., of 61, Great George, Street, Liverpool, in the County
of Lancaster, Lamp, Manufacturers, do hereby declare the nature of the said
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 provide a safe and convenient receptacle or
stand for warming stoves, and. particularly for stoves, in, which, oil, is used as the
heating agent. The common practice is. to place. auch, stoves upon, the floor or
inside the fire-place of the room to be heated, each of which courses is attended by
obvious disadvantages and danger.
A receptacle or stand for a warming stove constructed according to this inven-
tion cousists of a frame, adapted to contain the warming stove and to hang by
means of hooks, or their equivalent, upon the front bars of a fire-grate or other
convenient place.
In its most preferable form the frame is provided with two hooks by which it
may be suspended, and consists of a back-plate or heat-deflector which rests against
the front bars of the fire-grate and whose function is to throw forward the beat into
the room, a bottom-plate upon which rests the stove, sides, and a hinged door or
front-plate which with the sides may be partially glazed with ruby or other
coloured glass to present a cheerful appearance.

page_text: Such a receptacle or stand for waiming stoves is illustrated in the accompanying
drawing, in which Fig. 1 is a side elevation, Fig. 2 a plan shewing the door or
front-plate opened, and Fig. 3 a plan showing the door or front-plate closed.
Fig. 4 is a perspective view shewing the application of the fame as a receptacle
for a warming stove.
In the figures, a denotes the bottom-plate, the sides; c the back-plate or heat-
deflector, d the door or front-plate which is lunged to the bottom plate a ate and
extended at e' so as to check against the bottom-plate when opened, and provided
with a glazed portion f. ggare hooks by which the stand or receptacle is hung
upon the front bais of a fire-giate or other convenient place.
In the example illustrated the bottom-plate sides, and back-plate are formed in
one piece and, with the hinged door, are all of cast-metal, but these parts may be
constructed of sheet-metal and open rod-on work, which provides a lighter and
less expensive design. The heat-deflector e may be made easily removeable, or in
some cases may be omitted altogether The sides may be made higher than those
illustrated, and may be partially glazed with coloured glass.
The stove A stands upon the bottom-plate a of the receptacle, the door d of
which tests against the front of the stove, as shewn at Figure 4.
It will be seen that our invention provides a safe and convenient receptacle for a
warming stove, and particularly for an oil stove, and minimises the liability of its
being interfered with or upset.
It will also be understood that the details of our invention may be varied to suit
different requiements, and that any suitable material may be used in its construction
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what we
claim is.
1. A receptacle or stand for a warming stove, comprising a bottom-plate, sides,
a door or front, a back-plate or heat-deflector, and hooks by which the whole 18
adapted to be suspended upon the front bars of a hre-grate or other convenient
place.

front, which may be partially glazed.
3. The combination with a receptacle or stand for a warming stove, of a
