I WILLIAM HENRY STEPHENSON of Ainsworth Street, Blackburn, in the County
of Lancaster, Doctor of Medicine, do hereby declare the nature of my said
invention for "IMPROVEMENTS IN APPARATUS FOR HEATING BY HOT WATER
FOR HEATING WATER FOR DOMESTIC OR OTHER PURPOSES to be as
AND
follows:-
"
This invention consists of improved construction of apparatus for heating or
warming buildings, green houses, and the like by the circulation of hot water and
for heating water for domestic or other purposes and is specially designed for
application to parts of buildings being exceedingly compact and inexpensive, and
readily erected or removed.
Instead of a boiler and furnace as heretofore I'employ a shell or water casing
within which are a series of gas burners the casing being perforated or provided
with apertures for tho admittance of air necessary to sustain combustion, of the
gas. Communicating with the casing are ascension, circulating, and return pipes
these being arranged around the rooms or buildings to be heated or warmed but
where the apparatus is to be used for heating water for domestic and other uses,
the inlet and outlet pipes are provided with taps and are connected with a coiled
pipe or pipes within the casing referred to.

invention for "IMPROVEMENTS IN APPARATUS FOR HEATING BY HOT WATER
and in what
AND FOR HEATING WATER FOR DOMESTIC OR OTHER PURPOSES
manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement:—
"
This invention consists of improved construction of apparatus for heating or
warming buildings, green houses, and the like, by the circulation of hot water and
for heating water for domestic or other purposes and is specially designed for
application to parts of buildings being exceedingly compact and inexpensive and
readily erected or removed.
Such being the nature and object of my said invention, the following is a
complete description of same, reference being had to the accompanying drawing
forming a part of this Specification in which :-
Fig. 1 is a longitudinal section of a boiler constructed according to this my
invention.
Fig. 2 is a plan view of same.
Figs. 3 and 4 shew the ends of the boiler.
Instead of a boiler and furnace as heretofore I employ a shell or water casing 1
within which are a series of gas burners 2 the casing being perforated or provided
with apertures 3 for the admittance of air necessary to sustain combustion of the
gas Communicating with the casing are inlet pipes 4, circulating pipes 5, and
ascension pipes 6 these being continued and arranged around the rooms or buildings
to be heated or warmed but where the apparatus is to be used for heating water for
domestic and other uses, the inlet pipe 4 and outlet pipe 6 are provided with taps
or valves The circulating pipes 5 are secured to the hollow ends 7 of the
casing 1-The heated air and gas within the casing 1 circulates as shewn by the
arrows, and passes out at 8-9 is a midfeather which separates the inlet or cold
Fair from the heated air above it-10 slag wool covering.
Having now particularly described, and ascertained the nature of my said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is
The improved boiler comprising the water casing, circulating pipes, and gas
heating appliance, in combination and constructed and arranged substantially as
illustrated by the annexed drawing and herein fully described.
