Description: |
| Abstract:
Our invention has for its object to improve the construction and operation of agricultural and other light portable engines; and to this end consists, first, in the combination of a heater with the steam-chest and cylinder by which the steam from -the chest is exhausted to the heater for heating the water-pipes, the cylinder, steam-chest, and heater being all cast in one piece to cheapen the cost of manufacture; secondly, in the heater-cover, constructed with a hollow case or box projecting into the heater, said box receiving the pipes, which are connected thereto in such a manner that they can be detached readily for cleaning the heater; thirdly, in casting the cylinder, steam-chest, and heater in one piece, and combining them with the braces by which they are supported from the boiler; fourthly, in casting the steam-chest, heater, cylinder, the lower braces, and the upper arms, which carry the crank-shaft, all in one piece, by which the whole attachment can be easily app)lied to and removed from the boiler; fifthly, in connecting the heater and steam-chest to the reach of the carriage in such a manner as to equalize the strain between the reach and the steam-chest and heater.
Claim:
The cylinder D, steam-chest E, and heater F, all cast in one piece, and arranged, relatively to each other |
