PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Hot-water Apparatus for Heating Greenhouses and
other Buildings.
EDWARD KERRY, Builder of 13 York Place High Street Highgate in the County
of Middlesex, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
The Improvement is composed of a hollow vessle through which passes a smaller
tube the intervening space capable of containing water. At one end is a bell shaped
vessle made in two thicknesses the inner lining connected to the smaller pipe and the
outer lining to the larger pipe under this cone is placed the gas or oil light (or
any other means used for heating) and the inner tube conveys the heat and vitated
air through the water and is taken by extra pipes to the outside of building there
is also a provision at the end opposite to the bell shaped vessle which enables a
connection to be made with any pipe used as a circulating pipe for heating, and the
bell shaped vessle also contains a similar arrangement so that the return water may be
conveyed back to the centre of heat. A provision is also made for the filling of the
vessle at the lowest point there is also a provision in the inner tube to collect any
moisture which may condense thus preventing the light from being put out.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Hot-water Apparatus for Heating Greenhouses and
other Buildings.
EDWARD KERRY of York Place High Street Highgate in the County of Middlesex
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 Improvement is composed of a hollow vessle or boiler through which passes a
smaller tube or tubes A the intervening space capable of holding water B. At
one end is a bell shaped vessle made in two linings the inner one being connected
with the small tube A (before described) and the outer one connected with the main
portion of apparatus and in such a manner as to make same watertight. Under this
bell shaped portion is placed the gas or oil light (or any other means used for heating)
the small tube or tubes A before mentioned conveying the heat and vitated air
through the water as many times as the size of the apparatus admits and, thence by
means of extra pipes to the outside of building.
There is also a provision C made at end of boiler or apparatus, opposite to the hell
shaped portion of same to admit of its being connected to any coil of pipes used for
heating purposes a similar provision being made in the bell shaped portion D to
admit the return water thus enabling a complete circulation to be kept up.
Provision E is also made for filling the apparatus at its lowest point and also for
preventing any condensation (which may collect in the inner or small tube at F).
from running down & extinguishing the light, it being led off by a small pipe
before it reaches the point at which the bell shaped portion and inner tube join.
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,
Novelty in construction of boiler.
