Description: |
Abstract:
This invention relates to certain improvements upon the patent granted to Gilbert Bradford, No. 115928, June 13, 1871; and it consists in the peculiar construction of the steam dome, in combination with the steam-encased cylinder, whereby the latter is relieved from the direct pressure of the entire subjacent body of steam, and its tendency to become strained and loosened from the dome obviated, and the consequent leakage of steam prevented.
Claim:
The steam-dome A, having a top, F, provided with an opening, c, in combination with a steam-encased cylinder, having a bottom plate, d, and a corresponding opening, e, substantially as and for the purpose described.
