We JOHN STANLEY and ISAAC TODD both of 256 Vauxhall Bridge Road in the
County of Middlesex Engineers do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be
as follows:
The object of our invention is to obtain a large beating surface without increasing
the space occupied and at the same time the consumption of fuel is decreased while
a greater heating surface, is obtained than heretofore and being water jacketted is
perfectly safe from fire. According to our invention we make the front supporting
the fire-bars, tubular with water inlet on each side. The fire-bars are supported
at the front by the front feed tube the back ends of the fire-bars are joined to
cross fire-bar box above which is the boiler back. The front and back are
connected by tubes of V shaped section which connect the front and back all
round same except the base.
These horizontal V tubes are covered by a saddle or water jacket which is in
communication at top with front of boiler by vertical tube and at lower end with
boiler back in order to facilitate the circulation of the water in the lower parts of
saddle. In this way there is a large and continuous water heating surface from
the inlet to the outlet and thus the whole water surface is acted on by the heat
and products of combustion circulating freely through the spaces between the
tubes, boiler proper, and jacket to same, and we thus produce a horizontal V section
tubular water jacketted boiler without brickwork but in which sometimes the
jacket may be dispensed with.

We, JOHN STANLEY, and ISAAC TODD both of 256 Vauxhall Bridge Road in the
County of Middlesex, Engineers 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 :-
The object of our invention is to obtain in boilers for heating purposes a greater
beating surface than has heretofore been obtained without increasing the space
occupied by the apparatus, and at the same time to effect a decrease in the
consumption of fuel.
By this our invention a more rapid, and consequently, a more perfect, circulation
is obtained than heretofore and a saving of considerable time, and tedious waiting
for the whole apparatus to be thoroughly heated before circulation commences is
effected. Moreover these boilers are so arranged that any part of same can be
easily got at for cleaning purposes; and repairs to any part or parts of same can
be readily executed.
These boilers are also water jacketted and are thereby rendered perfectly safe
from fire, and no brickwork being required or employed in their construction, as in
other boilers, a further saving is effected in their first cost.
And in order that this invention may be fully understood, and readily carried
into effect reference is had to the accompanying drawings, of which Figure 1 is an
end elevation; Figure 2 a cross section; Figure 3 a side elevation with portion of
water jacket broken away to more clearly shew the arrangement and disposition
of water tubes; Figure 4 is a longitudinal section; Figure 5 a horizontal section;
and Figure 6 a view in perspective, drawn on a somewhat smaller scale than the
previous figures (the water jacket or saddle being in dotted lines) of a boiler
constructed in accordance with this invention. Similar letters of reference refer
to like parts in all the figures.
According to our invention, the front, ends of the fire bars A A, four only of
such fire bars are shewn but any other suitable number, according to the
circumstances of the case may be used, are carried upon the tubular support B, the
latter having water inlets C C on each side. This tubular support B is the feed
tube of boiler. The back ends of the fire bars A A are joined to "cross fire bar
box" D, above which is the boiler back F. Any ordinary description of fire bars
may be employed; or if desired, round tubular water-way fire bars may be used,
but we prefer to employ V shaped water way fire bars as shewn. Longitudinal
tubes G G of V shaped section connect the front E and back F of boiler, all round
same, except the base.
These horizontal V tubes G G are covered by a saddle or water jacket H which
is in communication, at top, with front E of boiler by the vertical tube I and
at its lower end the saddle H communicates with the boiler by tubes K, best
seen at Figures 1 and 6, in order to facilitate the circulation of the water in the
lower parts of saddle or jacket, In this way there is a large and continuous water
.

page_text: heating surface from the inlet C to the outlet L and thus the whole water surface
is acted on by the heat and products of combustion circulating freely through the
spaces between the tubes, boiler proper, and jacket to same, and we thus produce a
horizontal V section tubular water jacketted boiler without brickwork, but in
which sometimes the jacket may be dispensed with.
The whole of the boiler, being in sections, can either be caulked with iron
borings, or it may be bolted together from back to front.
A great advantage obtained in boilers constructed in accordance with this our
invention, and as above described, is that the horizontal V tubes G G are
completely surrounded by fire, and the outer saddle or jacket H covering the
whole of the boiler is also directly acted upon by the fire, thus a greater direct
heating surface is obtained than in boilers of ordinary and previously known,
constructions. They are economic, durable, efficient, and simple in construction,
and are especially adapted for heating conservatories, greenhouses churches, chapels,
schools, workhouses, public and private buildings, and domestic purposes generally.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed we declare that what
we claim is:—
First. In boilers for heating purposes the construction and arrangement of the
longitudinal V shaped water tubes; substantially as, and for the purposes herein-
before described.
Second. The general construction of boilers for heating purposes, and the
arrangement and disposition of the parts of such boilers; substantially as, and for
the purposes hereinbefore set forth and described.
