PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in and connected with Ventilating Coils or Radiators.
I, RICHARD MOUSLEY SOMERS, of 48 Woodhouse Lane, Leeds, Fireplace
and Heating Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
My invention has reference to certain improvements in and connected with
ventilating coils or radiators.
The object of my said improvements being to provide a filtering medium for the
air as it passes through such coils or radiators and so prevent particles of dust,
soot, and the like impurities entering the room or place wherein the coil or radiator
is fixed.
In carrying out my said object I provide the ventilating coil or radiator with a
filtering medium or screen made of canvas or other suitable material stretched upon
a suitable frame or otherwise, (or a suitable wire mesh work screen may be used in
lieu thereof) which is so placed within or in connection with the coil or radiator
that all air passing through the coil or radiator must pass through such filtering
medium or screen.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in and connected with Ventilating Coils or Radiators.
I, RICHARD MOUSLEY SOMERS, of 48 Woodhouse Lane, Leeds, Fireplace
and Heating Engineer, 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:-
My invention has reference to certain improvements in and connected with
ventilating coils or radiators.
The object of my said improvements being to provide a filtering medium for the
air as it passes through such coils or radiators and so prevent particles of dust, soot,
and the like impurities entering the room or place wherein the coil or radiator is
fixed.
In carrying out my said object I provide the ventilating coil or radiator with a
filtering medium or screen made of canvas or other suitable material stretched upon
a suitable frame or otherwise (or a suitable wire mesh work screen may be used in
lien thereof) which is so placed within or in connection with the coil or radiator
that all air passing through the coil or radiator must pass through such filtering
medium or screen.
DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS.
Fig. 1, is a sectional end view of ventilating coil or radiator provided with
filtering medium in accordance with my improvements.
Figs. 2, 3, 4 and are sectional elevations of modifications of my invention.
According to my said improvements I provide the ventilating coil or radiator A
with a filtering medium or screen B made of canvas or other suitable material
stretched upon a frame C as shown in Figs. 1 and 4; the said frame C being

page_text: supported by ledges or projections D and placed at an angle or inclined within the
vertical flue or air passage E, F being the flue leading to the ventilating coil or
radiator A.
In Figure 4 the filtering medium is shown placed at an angle or inclination the
opposite of that shown in Fig. 1.
In Figures 2 and 3 the filtering medium or screen B is in the form of a bag
fastened at the top end to a frame C adapted to fit onto the top H of the vertical
flue or air passage E, the bag being held taut or stretched by the bar J. which acts
as a weight.
In Figure 5 the filtering medium or screen is placed in the chamber F under the
vertical flue or air passage E of the coil or radiator A and consists of screen B
stretched over rods K fixed within a box L in the chamber F of the coil or
radiator A.
If required instead of making the screen B of canvas it may be made of suitable
wire mesh work.
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 :-
1. A ventilating coil or radiator having a filtering medium for the air as it passes
through such coil or radiator so that particles of dust, soot, and the like impurities
are separated from the air before it leaves the coil or radiator and passes into the
room or place wherein the coil or radiator is fixed, such as shown and described.
2. In a ventilating coil or radiator the combination of a frame C having a screen
or filtering medium B stretched or fixed thereon with the vertical flue F of the
coil or radiator A, such as shown and described.
3. In a ventilating coil or radiator the combination of a filtering medium or
screen B (stretched over rods K within a box L) with the chamber F, such as
shown and described with reference to Figure 5 of the drawings annexed.
