Improvements in Lamp Stoves for Heating purposes.
We, DANIEL CRAWLEY, of 111, Gordon Road, Ealing, London, W., Manufacturer,
GEORGE TAYLOR, of 16, Mattock Lane, Ealing aforesaid, Manufacturer, and THOMAS
MORTON, of 31-33, St. Georges Place, Great Hampton Row, in the City of Bir-
mingham, Manufacturer (partly a communication from abroad by F. Farenthold,
of 23, Montque aux Herbes Potageries, Brussels, Belgium), do hereby declare the
nature of this invention to be as follows:-
-
This invention relates to lamp stoves for heating and warming purposes, and
the object is to increase the heat-radiating surface of such stoves. The radiating
surface is made in the form of a hollow table or top, surmounting or supported
by standards or legs, and with the upper end of a chimney proceeding from an
oil or other lamp entering a chamber below the radiating surface, through a
suitable aperture.
In carrying out this invention, it is proposed to make the radiating diaphragm
or surface of considerable size, for instance, eighteen inches or two feet across
and surmounts a hollow chamber, which is a few inches in depth and is entirely
enclosed other than that it has an entrance hole in the middle of the underside.
The said radiating table, which may be of any shape and ornamented as required,
is supported by legs or by a ornamental frame work, which may also carry the
support whereon an oil or other lamp, (which may be of any approved con-
struction) rests. The chimney of the lamp may be provided with a wire guard
or cover and extends from the gallery upwards, either into the chamber under-
neath the radiating top, or terminates immediately below, the aperture in the
middle. of the same.
In order to raise the chimney for lighting and trimming the wick (in the case
of an oil lamp) a vertically lifting or turning gallery raiser, operated by a rack
and pinion, levers, screws or other mechanical means, is provided and where a
hinged gallery raiser is used, then a clearance for the upper end of the said
chimney is made in the edge of the radiation chamber, which clearance may be
closed, if necessary, by a hinged lid or door.

We, DANIEL CRAWLEY, of 111, Gordon Road, Ealing, London, W., Manufacturer,
GEORGE TAYLOR, of 16, Mattock Lane, Ealing aforesaid, Manufacturer, and THOMAS
MORTON, of 31-33, St. George. Place, Great Hampton Row, in the City of Bir-
mingham, Manufacturer (partly a communication from abroad by F. Farenthold,
of 23, Montque aux Herbes Potageries, Brussels, Belgium), 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 relates to lamp stoves for heating and warming purposes, and
the object is to increase the heat-radiating surface of such stoves. The radiating
surface is made in the form of a hollow table, or shallow heat-collecting cham-
ber, surmounting or supported by standards or legs, or by a suitable frame work,
whilst the heated air and products of combustion proceeding from the chimney
of an oil or other lamp enter the said chamber, below the radiating surface,
through a suitable aperture made in the underside.
Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings represents a side elevation of a radiat-
ing oil-lamp heating stove constructed according to this form of our invention.
Figure 2 is another view of the same, showing the shallow and hollow top or
radiating chamber and also the chimney of the stove in vertical section.
Figure 3 is a topside plan of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is a cross section of Figure 1 upon the dotted linea, looking towards
the hollow top of the stove which is thus shown in underside plan.
The same letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures
of the drawings.
The
In carrying out the form of the invention represented in the drawings, the
radiating top diaphragm or surface a', of the hollow heat-collecting chamber a,
is of considerable size, for instance, eighteen inches or two feet across and a
few inches in depth and is entirely enclosed other than that it has a central
hole, in the middle of the underside a, and a series of smaller holes a³, round
the edge. The said hollow heat collector and radiator, which may be of any
shape and ornament as required, is supported by legs or by an ornamental frame
work b, which also carries the support or platform b', whereon an oil or other
lamp, such as c, (which may be of any approved construction) rests.
chimney of the lamp c¹, may be provided with a wire guard or cover and extends
from the gallery 2 upwards, either into the chamber underneath the radiating
top, or terminates, as shown in the drawings, immediately below the aperture a²,
in the middle of the same. For convenience in raising the chimney for lighting
and trimming the wick (in the case of an oil lamp), the same is provided with a
pair of handles c³, or a vertically lifting or turning gallery raiser, operated by a
rack and pinion, levers, screws or other mechanical means, may be provided for
the same purpose, and where a hinged gallery raiser is used, then a clearance for
the upper end of the said chimney is made in the edge of the radiation chamber,
which clearance may be closed, if necessary, by a hinged lid or door.
When the stove is in use, the heated air and products of combustion issuing
from the chimney of the lamp, pass through the aperture a³, and into the hollow
interior of the chamber, from which the heat thus collected is partly radiated
through the metal walls of the said chamber and partly escapes, after circulation,
through the small holes a³.

page_text: Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of our said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, we declare that what
we claim is:-
A lamp stove for heating purposes, consisting of a hollow table or flat chamber
constituting a heat collecting chamber of considerable superficial area, supported
by legs or frame work and having a hole or holes in its underside through which
heated air and products of combustion proceeding from a lamp or lamp chimney
located thereunder pass, and from which the collected heat is conveyed to the
atmosphere either by radiation through the metallic walls of the said chamber,
or partly by radiation and partly through piercings therein, substantially as
described and set forth.
