PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Stoves for Use with Gaseous, Liquid, and other
Incandescent Fuel.
I, WILLIAM HENRY SHERBURN, Designer and Art Worker, of Commonwealth
Art Works, Three Gates, Belper, Derbyshire, do hereby declare the nature of
this invention to be as follows:-
My invention has for its object the formation, around or about the source
of heat, of reflecting and radiating surfaces upon the separate or combined
sections of which are embossed, enamelled or otherwise delineated the repre-
sentation of a glowing and flaming coal fire.
It is a well known fact that although new appliances may be more effectual
in action than those they are intended to supersede yet their unfamiliar appear-
ance sometimes prejudices their adoption.
This has often been the case with respect to gas and oil stoves.
My invention is intended to overcome such prejudice as well as to further
utilise the heat generated, by a judicious arrangement of reflecting and radiating
surfaces of a special form and design as herein before described and as illustrated
in the accompanying drawings.
The reflecting and radiating surfaces may be of metal, polished, embossed or
enamelled; tile; glass; brick, and other suitable materials or combination and
may be arranged in a manner similar to the drawings herewith, which are as
follows;
Fig. 1 Front view or elevation of a stove applicable for use with gas.
Fig. 2 Vertical sectional elevation of same, front to back;

Front view or elevation of stove as applicable for use with an ordi-
nary oil lamp.

page_text: this invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be parti-
cularly described and ascertained in and by the following statement:-
-
My invention has for its object the formation, around or about the source
of heat, of reflecting and radiating surfaces upon the separate or combined
sections of which are embossed, enamelled or otherwise delineated the repre-
sentation of a glowing and flaming coal fire.
It is a well-known fact that although new appliances may be more effectual
in action than those they are intended to supersede yet their unfamiliar appear-
ance sometimes prejudices their adoption.
This has often been the case with respect to gas and oil stoves.
My invention is intended to overcome such prejudice as well as to further
utilise the heat generated, by a judicious use of reflecting and radiating
surfaces of special form and design as herein described and as illustrated in
the drawings furnished with the Provisional Specification, and which will also
serve for this Complete Specification.
The method by which I perform my invention is as follows:-
Around and about the source of heat in a stove, which may be a gas burner
as in Fig. 1 (marked A), or a lamp, as in Fig. 3; I arrange reflecting or
radiating surfaces of metal, glass, tile or other suitable material upon the surface
of which is delineated, embossed or enamelled the representation of a glowing
or flaming coal fire.
In the drawings furnished with the Provisional Specification,―
Fig. 1 Is a front view or elevation of stove using an ordinary gas burner.
Fig. 2 Vertical sectional elevation of same--front to back.
Fig. 3 Front view of stove arranged for use with oil or other lamp.
Fig. 4 Vertical sectional elevation through centre of same, front to back.
Figs. 5 and 6--Horizontal sections through same showing position of lamp
and use with two lamps.
A-Shows position of source of heat.
B-Reflecting surfaces.
C-Heat radiators or distributors.
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-
In stoves for use with gaseous, liquid and other glowing fuel, the use of
reflecting and radiating surfaces around and about the source of heat, upon
which are delineated, embossed or enamelled the representation of an ordinary
coal fire.
