Improvements in or pertaining to Boilers for Domestic Purposes:
I WALTER THOMAS MORGAN of 9 Church Street Ebbw Vale in the County of
Monmouth Builder do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
A great evil is generally experienced in and with boilers for domestic purposes
such as kitchen boilers in that they are commonly placed close to and behind and
occasionally even built up. with or created in conjunction with the kitchen or other
ranges or fire grates whereby it is very difficult and troublesome to obtain access to
these boilers for purposes of repair or renewal or otherwise while when any accident
does happen a. great amount of damage is or may be done and great expense is
incurred.
The object of my invention is to remedy this evil.
.
To carry out this object I make a suitable chamber preferably in the form of a
recess in the wall at a convenient distance from the kitchen or other range or fire-
grate and, therein I place the usual or other desired boiler and the front of this
chamber is most conveniently closed by one or more suitable doors. To this chamber
a flue is led from the fire grate and this flue is made in any convenient and usual or
other manner, to surround or otherwise to be in connection or juxtaposition with the
boiler so that the hot gases passing along this flue may duly heat the same and then
this flue is led it may be to one of the flues or chimneys of the building preferably
to one of the upper or more elevated ones as by this arrangement the due draught
up this flue. will be ensured and one or more dampers may be fitted to this flue to.
regulate such draught. The water is admitted to the boiler in any of the ordinary
methods and withdrawn; therefrom in the same as may be desired and such ordinary
fittings and apparatus are used with and applied to the boiler as likewise may be
desired. It is very convenient so to arrange the boiler in the chamber that there is
a space therein above the boiler for various purposes and from this space an exit
flue can be arranged opening it may be outside the building and the boiler is or may
be so shaped that the upper part thereof may serve as a hot plate.

Improvements in or pertaining to Boilers for Domestic Purposes.
I WALTER THOMAS MORGAN of 9 Church Street Ebbw Vale in the County of
Monmouth Builder 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 :-
A great evil is generally or at least very frequently experienced in and with
boilers for domestic purposes such for example as kitchen boilers in that they are
commonly placed close to and behind and occasionally even built up with or it may
be created in conjunction with the kitchen or other ranges or fire grates whereby
and in and according to which arrangement. or method of construction it is very
difficult and troublesome to obtain access, to these boilers for purposes of repair or
renewal or otherwise while when any accident does happen a great amount of
damage is or, may be done and in any and every case a great expense is or may be

page_text: Now the object of this my invention is to remedy this evil whereby the con-
sequences aforesaid that arise therefrom will to a very great extent even if not
entirely be mitigated and obviated.
In order the more clearly to explain this my invention and in what manner the
same is to be performed I refer to the accompanying drawing wherein I have shewn
my invention as applied to and with and fitted to or in conjunction with an ordinary
kitchen range or fire grate and Figure 1 is a front elevation of the same and Figure 2
is a vertical transverse section thereof taken at a bin Figure 1.
I create or arrange a suitable chamber A preferably in the form of a recess
in the wall at a convenient distance from the kitchen or other range or fire
grate B and in any desirable position in respect thereof and in this chamber A
is placed the usual or other desired boiler D and the lower part of this
chamber A below and perhaps also around the boiler D is or may most con-
veniently be built up or filled in any usual or other manner with brickwork. E
or the like while to the upper part of the chamber A above the boiler D is or
are or may most conveniently be fitted a suitable door or suitable doors F
which can close the same. To this chamber A and through the brickwork E if
any a flue His led from the fire grate B it may be from the lower part of the
same as is shewn in Figure 1 and this flue H is so made and constructed and
arranged in any convenient and usual or other manner as to properly surround
or otherwise to be in connection or conjunction or juxtaposition with the boiler D
in such wise that the hot gases passing along this flue H may and shall duly
heat the same and then this flue H is led it may most preferably be not to the
flue K of the fire grate B but to one of the upper or more elevated flues or
chimneys of the building as by this arrangement the due- required draught up
this flue H will be ensured and it may perhaps be enhanced and one or more
of the ordinary or other dampers L may most conveniently be fitted to the
flúe H in any suitable and desired position or positions to regulate such draught:
The water is admitted to the boiler D and is withdrawn therefrom in any of the
ordinary methods and by and through any of the usual means and appliances as
may be desired in each particular case and such of the ordinary and usual
fittings and apparatus are used with and applied to cach several boiler D as
may be convenient and suitable for that boiler D. It is very convenient so to
arrange the boiler D in the chamber A and to create this chamber A of such
a size and shape that as is shewn in the drawing there is a vacant space M in
such chamber A above the boiler D which space M can be used for many and
various purposes and from this space M an exit flue N can suitably be arranged
opening it may be outside the building for the escape of steam or vapour or
otherwise, and the boiler D also is or may very conveniently be so shaped that
the upper part thereof may serve as a hot plate.
In and by this my invention therefore as is hereinbefore described and as is
shewn in the accompanying drawing boilers for domestic purposes are very accessible
and are easily quickly and cheaply placed in position and when required removed
therefrom for purposes of repair or renewal or otherwise as is desired, while it is
also plain that any accident will do as little damage as from the nature of the case
is possible and at the same time the efficiency of these boilers is in no wise.
diminished but contrariwise is or may be greatly improved.
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
The arrangement and combination of parts and appliances constituting my
improvements in or pertaining to boilers for domestic purposes substantially as
herein before described and shewn in the accompanying drawing.
