clearly appearing in Fig. 1. The space 43
below the guides 38, constitutes an ash space,
and access is had to this space 43, by means
of a suitable door 44. To the wall 4 is
5 hinged a shelf 45.
In practical operation, presupposing that
the parts are positioned as shown in Fig. 2,
the operation of the device is as follows:
The heated air and products of combustion,
10 generated above the grate 36 will pass, in
the direction of the arrows, between the top
15 of the upper oven 11 and the top 2 of the
casing 1. Thence, the products of combus-
tion will pass between the wall 14 of the
15 upper oven 11 and the secondary baffle plate
16, thence between the bottom 10 of the up-
per oven 11 and the extension 17 of the
baffle plate, thence between the bale plate
8 and the wall 18 of the lower oven 11',
20 thence between the bottom 21 of the lower
oven 11' and the bottom 3 of the casing 1,
thence between the wall 19 of the lower
oven 11' and the wall 5 of the casing 1,
thence between the secondary baffle 16 and
25 the wall 5 of the casing, and thence into the
stack or stove pipe 23.
When the circulation takes place as above
described, it will be seen that both ovens will
be maintained heated to a high degree. It is
30 possible, however, to cut out both ovens.
In order to effect this result, the damper 24
is swung downwardly, permitting the prod-
ucts of combustion to pass from the space
above the grate 36, directly into the stack
35 23. It is also possible, to heat the upper
oven 11, without heating the lower oven 11'
to the baking point. Under such circum-
stances, the damper 24 is closed, together
with the dampers 25 and 27, the damper 26
40 being open. Under such circumstances, the
products of combustion will pass across the
top of the upper oven 11, along one side of
the upper oven across the bottom of the up-
per oven, and thence between the extension
45 17 and the top 20 of the lower oven 11', into
the flue 22, through the opening which is
controlled by the damper 26.
Should it be desired to cut out the lower
oven 11', and at the same time heat the up-
50 per oven 11, but to not so great a degree as
above described, the damper 24 may be
closed, the dampers 25 and 26 being opened.
Under such circumstances, the products of
combustion, generated above the grate 36,
55 will pass along the top of the upper oven 11,
along one side of the upper oven 11, and
thence through the openings controlled by
the dampers 25 and 26, into the flue 22, and
thence into the stack 23.From the foregoing it will be seen that it 60
is possible, by manipulating the dampers,
to cut out both ovens, to cut out the lower
oven, so to direct the products of combustion
that the upper oven 11 will be heated on
three sides, and so to conduct the products 65
of combustion that the upper oven 11 will
be heated upon two sides only.
It will be understood readily, that the
ashes from the grate 36 will be received by
the sifter 39, and that the sifter 39 may be 70
reciprocated upon the guides 37, the minor
portions of the ashes falling into the ash
pan 41. If desired, the ash pan 41 may be
removed, whereupon the ashes may be per-
mitted to accumulate, to any desired extent, 75
in the space 43, from which space, the ashes
may be removed through the door 44. Like-
wise, should the ash pan 41 overflow, such
overflow will find its way into the space 43,
thereby preventing a choking of the sifter 80
39 or of the grate 36.
Having thus described the invention, what
is claimed is:
In a. device of the class described, a cas-
ing; spaced, superposed ovens therein; a 85
primary bafile plate rising from the bottom
of the casing and having an extension con-
nected with the upper oven; a secondary
baffle plate depending from the top of the
casing to one side of the upper oven and 90
having an extension protruding between the
ovens, the secondary. baffle plate defining a
flue at the back of the casing; there being
an opening in the secondary bafle plate
above the upper oven and communicating 95
with the flue; there being an opening in the
extension of the secondary baffle plate, alined
with the space between the upper oven and
the secondary baffle plate; dampers for the
openings ; a damper positioned to control the 100
point of communication between the flue and
the space between the lower oven and the ex-
tension of the secondary baffle plate; a dam-
per positioned adjacent the top of the lower
oven and adapted to open and to close the 105
space between the lower oven and the pri-
mary baffle plate; and a grate positioned be-
tween the ovens and one wall of the casing,
upon the opposite side of the casing from
the flue, the upper oven being spaced from 110
the top of the casing.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as
my own, I have hereto affixed my signature
in the presence of two witnesses.
