JOSEPH BARON, OF NEWYORK, N.-Y.

. HEAT-DISTRIBUTER.

To all whom it may concern.' Y

, Be it known that I, JOSEPH BARON, a citizenof the United States, residing at New York, in lthe county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Heat-Distributers, of which the..following is a specification.

This invention relates to heaters particularly for use on a gasjet, and more especially to means for distributing the heat therefrom throughout the room; and the object of the same is to produce an attachment for carrying outthis enc.

While the invention may be used with heaters of a number of forms, I also employ a special form of heater in this connection forming part of the invention.

Details arel set forth in the following specification and claims, and reference is made to the drawings, wherein- Figure 1 is a vertical section through this complete device.

Fig. 2 is a bottom plan view of the socalled ybell with the partition in place.

Fig. 3 is a top plan view of the propeller or fan. y f

Fig. 4 is a sectional detail onpthe line 4-4 ofFig. 1. v

My invention may well be applied to an ordinary gas bracket B having the usual key K, either by slipping its burner 1 over the burner ordinarily in place, or screwing it into the elbow 2 asv shown. Around the burner is a collar 3and above it a second and larger collar 4, andwires or., rods 5 radiating from the lower collar through the upper are connected at their upper ends with a dome or bell. The latter has a flat top 6 and a iarin wall provided with an annular shoulder g, beneath which it also has a flaring skirt 8 to which the wires are attached. The burner is indicated by the numeral 9 and I do not wish to be limited in its construction. The latter depends considerably upon whether or not natural or artificial gas is consumed, or in fact whether this fluid be something else.

Within the bell I dispose a disk-like partition 10 perforated in a ring around its edge as shown at 11, and beneath this partition is an asbestos disk 12 which is of such size that it exposes the perforations. The periphery of the partition bears upward against the shoulder 7 and a screw 13 passes through a washer 14 and then through the asbestos disk and partition for holding the Specification of Letters Patent.v f Patent-,Qd Diggy 27, 1919,y Application ledOctober 26, 1918'.

parts assembled. The top 6V of the bell has a series'of perforations which are preferably disposed in the form of a ring as seen at 16 rather closely surrounding 4its center, from whicli latter rises a boss 17 internally threaded so that the screw 13 may pass upward into itv as shown in Fig. 1.` The screw by preference carries a rod `18 passing upward through the'boss and rising above the same. tightened the partition and the asbestos are held Vwithin -the bell, and the heat rising from the burner will spread outward over the asbestos and flow upward rst through the perforations 11 then collect in the space When this screw isv yinserted 4and between the two flat sheets and flow inward and upward through the perforations 16.

My distributer'proper is made in the form of a propeller or fan, perhaps best seen inL Fig. .3.11 It comprises a circular .body 20 having a conical cap 21 risingfrom its center and resting'on the tip ofthe rod 18, and

the body Vis cut with a number of L-shap'ed incisions 22 radiating from its center to rim,

wing so cut out is bent vdown `at a line 24 to produce blades orflukes as indicated at 25V in Fig. 1. Attention is invitedto the fact that the narrow ends of these substantially'triangular blades are innermost and. they grow wider intheir bodies toward the periphery. The heated air rising'through the perforations 16 strikes the narrower Vends and flows outward underthe blades at the same time that it is escaping upwardthrough the propeller. The result of this rise of hot air will be to cause the propeller or fan to rotate on the pin or rod 18 as will be clear. Its rotation I find by experiment throws the heat to quite remote parts of the room, so that the products of combustion rising from the perforations 16 do not quickly ascend to the ceiling' and Y become lost, but are utilized throughout an apartment of considerable size.

slowly upon the pin or supporting rod 18, so that the heat passes only partly through the propeller and considerable of it flows to remote parts of the room.

The foregoing description and the drawings have reference to what may be considered the preferred or approved form of my invention. It is to be understood that L may make such changes in construction and arrangement and combination of parts, materials, dimensions, et cetera, as may prove eX- pedient and fall wi-thin the scope of the appended claims.

Having thus fully described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is l. In a heaterV of the classrdescribed, they combination with a source of heat, a support rising therefrom, abell having a perforated top standing above said source and a downwardly flaring skirt connected with said support and provided with a shoulder, and a perforated partition within the bell and having its edge contacting with said shoulder; of a screw passing upward through the partition and the top of the bell, a threaded boss engaging the upper end of the screw, and a distributer rotatably mounted above the boss.

2. In a heater of the class described, the

combination with a burnera collar around the same, a series of wires rising from said collar, a bell having a perforated top and a shoulder around its skirt, the latter being connected with said wires, a partition within Vthe bell having perforations out of registry with those mentioned, a binding screw for holding the periphery of the partition against said shoulder, and a pin rising from said screw; of a distributer rotatably mounted on said pin.

' 3. In a'heater ofthe type described, the combination with a burner, a support rising Copies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, byfaddressing the Washington, D. C.

therefrom, a Ibell carried by the support and having perforations through its top, a partition mounted within said bell and having combination with a burner, a support rising 55 therefrom, a bell carried by said support and having perforations through its top, a partition mounted within said bell and'having perforations, an asbestos disk underlying said partition, a washer under the disk, and a screw passing upward through the washer and disk and the top of the bell; of a boss on the top of the -bell engaging the upper end of the screw', a pin rising from said screw, and a distributer rotatably mounted upon the pin above the perforations in the top, for the purpose set forth. v

5. In a heater of the type described, the combination with a burner adapted to be mounted on a perforated gas jet, and a se-Y ries of wires rising and radiating therefrom, a bell having perforations in its top and a boss rising from its center and containing a threaded socket, the skirt of the bell flaring downward and containing a shoulder; of a partition plate, its periphery resting against said shoulder,` a screw passing upward through the partition and bell and into said boss, a pin rising' from the screw,rand a dis-` tributer mounted rotatably upon the pin.

In testimony whereof I aiiix my signature in presence of two witnesses. i
