PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in Machinery for Humidifying Air and Providing
Pure Air, and Regulating Delivery thereof.
I JOHN DODDS of 54 Clarendon Road Chorlton on Medlock Manchester
Ventilating Engineer do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
My invention relates to construction of machinery for purpose of providing
textile & other factories with pure air charged with an amount of humidity which
can be regulated, as to quantity of pure air & humidity, at will.
And that my
invention may be better understood, I herewith annex drawings illustrative
thereof.
Fig. 1 represents side view of apparatus.
Fig. 2 represents end or top view of same.
A shows air propellor fitted to run in chamber F made of any material suitable
for this purpose.
L shows feed side of air propellor from which the propellor immediately draw its
supply of air.
K shows roof line which may be either level or slant, and through roof air may
be drawn by propellor, according to position of door H 1, which is fitted for this
special purpose. The door H1 having weight I attached for purpose of closing
against side, being hinged at position, H, opens, by drawing cord at G opens to
position H 2 which thus closes aperture at H 2 & opens that at H1 thus deriving
its air either from hole in roof or from the room itself or proportionately at will.
This chamber L is provided with a steam pipe B which discharges steam on
bevel impactor C. The disseminated vapour being drawn by air propellor through
chamber F as shown by arrows, is delivered on to a circular centre-raised rose D
specially formed for this purpose as shape shown at D which guides air from
chamber F to all points of the room.
E is gutter or drain for retaining & drawing off condensed steam.
Dated this 9th day of November 1801

I, JOHN DODDS of 54 Clarendon Road Chorlton on Medlock Manchester
Ventilating Engineer 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 :-

position H 2 which thus closes aperture at H2 & opens that at H 1 thus deriving
its air either from hole in roof or from the room itself or proportionately at will.
This chamber L is provided with a steam pipe B which discharges steam on
bevel impactor C.
The disseminated vapour being drawn by air propellor through chamber Fas
shown by arrows, is delivered on to a circular centre-raised rose D specially formed
for this purpose as shape shown at D which guides air from chamber F to all points
of the room.
E is gutter or drain for retaining & drawing off condensed steam.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is,
The combination of an air propellor with tubes, door, rose, & steam impactor
substantially as herein before set forth & as illustrated by accompanying drawings.
Dated this 9th day of August 1892.
