Year: 1876

page_text: LETTERS PATENT to Reuben Samuel, Oakeshott, of the Firm of Nettleton
and Company, Ironmongers, of Sloane Square, Chelsea, in the County of
Middlesex, for the Invention of "IMPROVEMENTS IN STOVES."
caled the 26th June 1877, and dated the 29th December 1876.
PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION left by the said Reuben Samuel Oakeshott at
the Office of the Commissioners of Patents on the 29th December 1876.
REUBEN SAMUEL OAKESHOTT, of the Firm of Nettleton and Company, Iron-
mongers, of Sloane Square, Chelsea, in the County of Middlesex.
"IMPROVEMENTS
IN STOVES."
The object of this Invention is to introduce fresh air from the outside or external
air so as to warm a chamber or building by means of a stove with air chambers and
tubes so arranged as to produce perfect ventilation.
The fresh air is brought from the outside of a building by means of a tube or
: otherwise to a chamber at the base of the stove. Above this chamber the open or
close fire-brick stove is arranged, cased in wrought iron with a wrought-iron outer
case closed at the top and bottom. Between the inner and outer cases a wrought-
iron tube (or tubes) is fixed so as to deliver the fresh warm air over the top of the
stove into the room, or to be conducted elsewhere, as desired. The admission of air
may be cut off by a valve or damper when desired. This stove may also be used
without being connected with the outside or external air.
SPECIFICATION in pursuance of the conditions of the Letters Patent filed by
the said Reuben Samuel Oakeshott in the Great Seal Patent Office on the 28th
June 1877.

page_text: air chamber and tubes arranged substantially as herein-after described, with the
view to produce perfect ventilation. The fresh air is brought from the outside of
a building by a tube or other means to a chamber at the base of the stove. Above
this chamber the open or close fire-brick or fire-clay stove is arranged, cased in iron
(preference being given to wrought iron) with an iron outer case closed at the top
and bottom. Between the inner and outer cases an iron or suitable metal tube or
tubes is or are fixed so as to deliver the fresh warm air over the top of the stove
into the room, or for its conduction elsewhere, as desired.
The admission of air may be cut off by a valve or damper, when desired,
as occasionally this stove may be used without the fresh air tube or other means
communicating with the air chamber at the base of the stove being open.
Having thus far described the nature and object of the said Invention, and
incidentally intimated in what manner the same is to be performed or carried out
in practice, I will now proceed (aided by the accompanying Drawings) to further
and particularly describe and ascertain in detail in what manner the same is to be
performed or carried out in practice, that is to say :—
