I, RICHARD PAUL FISHER, of Claughton Villa, Brincliffe Edge, Sheffield, in
the County of York, Manager and Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of this
invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to heating or ventilating and apparatus connected there-
with. In carrying out this invention I construct a boiler made in two or more
sections preferably of saddle type, placed one above the other and heated by one
furnace only. One of the said sections is employed for hot water for heating
purposes, in the manner generally adopted for large buildings; the other section
supplies low-pressure steam which can be used for heating or ventilating purposes;
for example it may pass along lofty buildings or enter into any circular, spiral
or other conduit in such a manner that the heat in the circular or other conduit
assists ventilation.
The hot water or steam or both may be used to heat cooking tables, calorifiers,
greenhouses, or for any other purpose to which they may be adapted.
I wish it to be clearly understood that any number of sections, or boilers may
be used, some for generating steam the others for the circulation or heating of
water as long as they are heated by one common furnace.
Again for ventilating purposes I may adopt any suitable means whereby the
heat is obtained from one common furnace.
I may also exhaust the steam from its section or boiler into any flue, shaft
or the like ventilator or I may return the steam to its section or boiler or a steam
trap.

This invention relates to heating or ventilating and apparatus connected there-
with. In carrying out this invention I construct a boiler made in two or more
sections preferably of saddle type, placed one above the other and heated by one
furnace only. One of the said sections is employed for hot water for heating
purposes, in the manner generally adopted for large buildings; the other section
supplies low-pressure steam which can be used for heating or ventilating purposes;
for example it may pass along lofty buildings or enter into any circular, spiral
or other conduit in such a manner that the heat in the circular or other conduit
assists ventilation.
The hot water or steam or both may be used to heat cooking tables, calorifiers,
greenhouses, or for any other purpose to which they may be adapted.
I wish it to be clearly understood that any number of sections, or boilers may
be used, some for generating steam the others for the circulation or heating of
water as long as they are heated by one common furnace.
Again for ventilating purposes I may adopt any suitable means whereby the
heat is obtained from one common furnace.
I may also exhaust the steam from its section or boiler into any flue, shaft
or the like ventilator or I may return the steam to its section or boiler or a steam
trap.
In the accompanying drawings
Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of the improved saddle boiler.
Figure 2 is a similar view showing the flues.
Figure 3 is a part sectional and part front elevation of the boiler,
Figure 4 is a sectional plan of same.
Figure 5 is a perspective view of the boiler.
Figure 6 is a plan showing the inner boiler mid-feather.
Figure 7 is a general elevation showing the connections of a boiler to a
radiator flooring, and spiral ventilator.
Like letters indicate like parts throughout the drawings.
In constructing my arrangement I take an ordinary saddle boiler A. and over
the same place another similar and larger boiler B, allowing sufficient space C
between them to act as a flue from the furnace D which is constructed in the
usual manner.
I preferably form on the outer boiler B a receiver of suitable shape such as E
so that the space within it can be arranged for generating low pressure steam.
When the boilers A and B receive their supply of water it is heated by the
furnace D which also generates low pressure steam in the boiler B delivered from
the receiver E by one or more branches connected therewith at G¹.
The usual inlets and outlets F and G and delivery H. are connected and the
water from the inner boiler radiates in the usual manner and also if necessary
from the boiler. B through inlets and outlets F¹ and G¹.
Again steam may also be taken from the boiler B by any suitable connections
as G from the receiver E and conducted to radiators such as K with suitable
piping or connections L and returned to the boiler B in the usual manner.
The water heated is conducted by suitable pipes M and circulates to any part
of the building for the purpose of heating the latter.
Steam may also be conducted from the receiver E by suitable pipes N to the
top or to any part of the building into any circular, spiral, or other conduit (
and either exhaust through the ventilator or is returned by pipes such as N¹
to the boiler B.
On the same principle radiators, cooking-tables, calorifiers, green-houses and
lofty buildings may be heated and ventilated.
Any number of sections or boilers may be used, some for generating steam,
others for circulating or heating water provided that they are heated by one or

page_text: more common furnaces. If necessary the boilers may be connected together in
some suitable manner.
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
1. In heating or ventilating apparatus the combination of two or more boilers
or receptacles of the kind described wherein water may be heated and steam
generated by a common furnace substantially as described.
2. In heating and ventilating apparatus the complete boiler substantially as
described and illustrated in Figures 1 to 6 of the accompanying drawings."
3. The complete heating and ventilating apparatus substantially as described
or illustrated in Figure 7 of the accompanying drawings.
