PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in the Construction of Heating Stoves or Fire Grates.
I JAMES BAZELEY PETTER of Yeovil in the County of Somerset Wholesale
Ironmonger and Manufacturer do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
This invention has for its object, improvements in the construction of stoves or fire
grates used for heating or warming purposes whereby greater heat or warmth is
obtained and diffused about the apartment or room in which the stove or grate is
situated.
For this purpose according to my invention I place over around or about the body
or frame of a cockle, stove, or grate suitable metal rings chains or spiral rods in such a
manner that they will act or serve as conductors of the heat generated in the body of
the stove aforesaid or cockle case to the surrounding atmosphere.
The metal rings or "conductors" may also be arranged vertically or obliquely on
the sides of the stove or transversely on the top, if desired.

I, JAMES BAZELEY PETTER of Yeovil in the County of Somerset Wholesale
Ironmonger and Manufacturer 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:-
This Invention has for its object improvements in the construction of stoves or fire
grates used for heating or warming or drying purposes whereby greater heat or
warmth is obtained and diffused about the building apartment or room in which the
stove or grate is situated.
For this purpose according to my invention I place over, around, or about the body,
or frame which encloses the fire of a cockle-stove, or grate suitable metal rings chains
or spiral rods in such a manner that they will act or serve as conductors of the heat
generated in the body of the stove or grate aforesaid or cockle case to the surrounding
atmosphere.
The metal conductors may be arranged horizontally vertically or obliquely on the
sides of the stove or transversely on the top if desired or otherwise.
And in order that my invention may be clearly understood and readily carried into
practice I will proceed to describe the same with reference to the drawings hereto
annexed which show several forms of stoves and fire grates constructed with and
having my improvements applied thereto.
Figure 1 shows an ordinary stove or cockle suitable for being placed in the base-
ment of a building the outer surface being covered with metal chains rings or spiral
rods or other like reticulated or intersticed surfaces corresponding with the shape or
contour of the casing of the stove in order to increase the heat conducting and
radiating surface of the stove in accordance with my invention.
Figure 2 shows a stove or grate of different form and construction the chains rings
rods or conductors of heat being arranged in horizontal rows upon the surface or body
of the stove in accordance with my improvements.
Figures 3 and 4 show vertical stoves constructed with or having heat conducting
and radiating surfaces arranged upon or applied to the casing of the stoves in
accordance with my improvements.
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 improved construction of stoves or fire grates by applying reticulated or
intersticed heat conducting surfaces to the casings or frames thereof in the form of
metal chains rings or spiral rods substantially in the manner and for the purpose
hereinbefore described and represented in the drawings hereto annexed.
