Improvement in Stoves.
ALFRED THOMAS HEBRON, Marble Merchant of Mitford House Whitley
Northumberland do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows :—
The stove or interior is intended to be made with a movable front and in segments
in order to render the parts in case of breakage or alterations accessible from the
front and interchangable with others of the same size, and further by its make and
formation to render the chimney or any portion of the stove or interior accessible
by the removal of the fireplace. By my invention access may be had from the
front and any part of the stove. Interior or ornamental tile or other panels may
be removed and if necessary others of a like size put in its place without being
obliged to remove the chimneypiece. It is intended to fix the stove by clews,
hinges, clamps, cramps, bolts, hooks, screws or other means, which may be done in
a variety of ways, by clips behind or otherwise as may be found most convenient.
The like remarks apply to the loose front of the stove, which may be made either
in one piece or in segments as may be found necessary and to the hood or canopy
and loose bottom grate. The drawings herewith illustrate some of the ways it is
intended to fix it. Although the drawings show interiors only it is intended to
apply to all register & sham register stoves, mantel registers, and all fire gas or
other heating stoves or interiors in which the application is possible the parts which
constitute my invention.

is built into the brick or tile work, thus the entire interior may be removed when
not required leaving an ornamental tiled recess. The nuts may be ornamental
brass or other material and have a strip of ornamental metal from bolt head to bolt
head and fastened in place with the nuts.
