PROVISIONAL
SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Stove.
We, THOMAS PAUL LOMAS, of 8 Surrey Lane, Battersea, London S.W.,
Agent, and HENRY EDWARD LOMAS, of 17 York Road, London S. W. Iron-
monger, do hereby declare the nature of our said invention to be as follows:-
The object of our invention is to manufacture an improved form of stove.
Our invention consists of a gas, paraffin, or other burner, capable of being
regulated in the usual manner. Above and surrounding this burner we fit a series
of polygonic rings, formed of sheet metal, porcelain, china, glass, or other suitable
material. Each of the rings may be formed in one piece or of a number of pieces
fixed together, and circular, elliptical, or otherwise in plan.
We cut sheet metal, copper, tin, or other metallic plates, and shear, press, stamp,
and corrugate such plates so as to approximate to the form of portions of cylinders,
or portions of a frustum of a cone; or we form the plates of other materials, and
unite the same by means of flanges or otherwise so as to form the rings above
mentioned.
When these rings are suitably mounted above the stove, they form a series of
louvres, permitting cold air to freely enter and ascend between the rings, and also
permitting rays of light to be visible between the rings, whereby a cheerful glow
of fire light is thrown downwards and outwards; while, at the same time, air is
warmed and carried upwards through the store both by radiation and by actual
contact with the plates.

2. The combination of a series of rings, formed of sheet metal, porcelain, china,
glass, or other suitable material, each ring being formed in one piece, or a number
of pieces, together forming our invention of an improved stove, substantially as
hereinbefore described.
