Holborn, Middlesex Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of my said invention
for "AN IMPROVED CONSTRUCTION OR ARRANGEMENT OF FIRE BACKS AND BASKETS
OF PORTABLE COOKING RANGES TO ADAPT THEM FOR WARMING AND VENTILATING
ROOMS OTHER THAN THOSE IN WHICH THE RANGES ARE PLACED," to be as
follows:-
The object of this invention is an improved construction or arrangement of fire
backs and baskets of portable cooking ranges to adapt them for the warming and
ventilation of other rooms.
"
For the purpose of my invention I form the "back or the back of a fire basket
of a portable cooking range with a rounded lump or tube end projecting slightly
into the fire. The lump is hollow and extends into a back chamber or a flue-way
and is in communication with inlet piping or passages leading from the outer air
or other source of air supply up to and in conjunction with outlet piping or
passages to rooms or receptacles above into which the air so heated can be led
or distributed or utilized for warming and ventilating purposes. The up-pipe or
pipes can be within the chimney.

I DAVID WILSON of "The Wilson Engineering Company Limited" 227 High
Holborn, Middlesex, Engineer, do hereby declare the nature of my said invention
for "AN IMPROVED CONSTRUCTION OR ARRANGEMENT OF FIRE BACKS AND BASKETS
OF PORTABLE COOKING RANGES TO ADAPT THEM FOR WARMING AND VENTILATING
ROOMS OTHER THAN THOSE IN WHICH THE RANGES ARE PLACED," and in what
manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement:—
The object of this invention is an improved construction or arrangement of fire
backs and baskets of portable cooking ranges to adapt them for warming and
ventilating rooms other than those in which the ranges are placed.
For the purpose of my invention I form the "back or the back of a fire basket
of a portable cooking range with a rounded lump or tube end projecting slightly
into the fire. The lump is hollow and extends into a back chamber or a flue way
and is in communication with inlet piping or passages leading from the outer air
or other source of air supply up to and in conjunction with outlet piping or
passages to rooms or receptacles above into which the air so heated can be led
or distributed or utilized for warming and ventilating purposes. The up-pipe or
pipes can be within the chimney.
The annexed drawings Figures 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 on Sheets 1 and 2 give several
examples of the invention above described in which A is the lump or pipe pro-
jecting into the fire basket B at the back, the air for heating purposes enters the
lump A preferably from a chamber or pipe C below and passing through the said
lump A becomes heated; it then passes into the up-pipe or pipes D and thence to
the flues or coils in the room to be warmed.
Figures 1 and 2 shows two forms of the lump or tube A projecting through the
back B into the fire, Figure 3 represents another modification in a portable cooking
range and Figure 4 shows an arrangement wherein the lump A forms part of the
back B of the fuel cage. In the modification shown at Figure 5 the tube A passes
horizontally along the back B the up-pipes D D being at each side of the range.
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
The apparatus A in the back of a portable cooking range for heating and
ventilating rooms other than that in which said range is fitted as hereinbefore
described and substantially as shown in the annexed drawings.
