Class Definition for Class 122 - LIQUID HEATERS AND VAPORIZERS

CLASS 122,	LIQUID HEATERS AND VAPORIZERS
Click here for a printable version of this file

SECTION I - CLASS DEFINITION

This class relates to heating liquids, generating vapors from liquids, treating the vapors generated for use, such as superheating or cooling them, and conserving the heat remaining in the liquid or vapor after a part of the heat energy has been made use of for any purpose. To bring a liquid heater into this class, the chamber, receptacle or conduit in which the liquid is heated must be fluid tight.

This class includes combinations of steam superheaters, feed-water heaters, steam separators, condensers, traps, manhole-closures, safety devices, cleaners, and feeders with a boiler when the structure of necessity must form a part of the boiler structure combination, also parts of boilers unless they are of general application.

This class includes water-cooled grates whether or not in connection with a boiler for heating the boiler water. It also includes the boiler and furnace in combination or the boiler alone with the furnace alone.

The liquid containers classified in this class may be heated by solid or fluid fuel burned in any type of furnace or burner, by friction, or by chemical action other than combustion, or by electricity. The heat may be applied directly to the walls of the fluid containing chamber or indirectly by the interposition of a fluid in a distinct and separate chamber, which fluid being heated may impart its heat to the fluid to be finally heated. When the fluid is heated by the interposition of another fluid the heat generator must be a part of the unitary structure of the fluid heater, with one exception--to wit: devices for generating a vapor having a vapor separator within the fluid chamber may be heated indirectly by a fluid, the furnace for heating which does not form part of the unitary structure. The fluid may be heated also by a heat radiating body in either a liquid, or solid state, which body may be either on the inside or on the outside of the fluid chamber; but if said heating body be inside the fluid chamber its nature must be such that it will not mix with the fluid to be heated.

SECTION II - LINES WITH OTHER CLASSES AND WITHIN THIS CLASS

The distinction between water heaters in Classes 122 and 126 is this: The water heaters in Class 122 have a closed water containing chamber or receptacle for holding the water while it is heated or have one or more closed conduits through which the water flows while being heated; but the water heaters in class 126 are of the open type. In Class 122 are classified mechanism for regulating both the inflow of water to the boiler and the burning of the fuel in all cases when steam is generated and also in all cases when water is heated, excepting in devices for heating water where the opening of a valve to permit water to flow through the heater at the same time increases the heat of the heat generator, such devices being classified in Class 126, subclasses 351; but this subclass relates only to the controlling device for the water and fuel. The structure of the water heater or boiler together with such a controlling mechanism are classified in Class 122.

SECTION IV - GLOSSARY

BOILER

Used as a generic term for a liquid heater. The nature of the liquid heated is immaterial. Whether the liquid heated is conducted from the boiler as liquid or vapor depends upon the amount supplied and the degree of heat attained, and for this reason generally no distinction has been noted in the classification, similar structures being classified together regardless of the ultimate effect. In the type of boilers known as "flashers" this distinction is of importance and provision has been made therefor.

FIRE TUBES

Include both small and large tubes through which the products of combustion pass unless the term "flue" is used with them, in which case "fire tubes" would refer to the small tubes, and "flues" to the large tubes for the products of combustion.

STEAM

To be taken in a generic sense as meaning vapor.

STEAM TUBES

Designate vapor tubes whether the vapor therein be formed from water or any other liquid.

WATER TUBES

Designate tubes, both large and small, through which liquid or vapor passes.

WATER

To be taken in a generic sense as meaning liquid.

(1) Note. The term "fire tube" is used in a sense broad enough to include both small tubes and large tubes forming passages through a chamber when the size of the tube is immaterial to the invention claimed; but patents disclosing boilers provided with large fire tubes or "flues", where the large size of the tubes is a material feature of the structure and is necessary to the structure of the boiler and its combination with other features, are classified under the "flue" types of boilers, subclass 135, and the subclasses thereunder, except in that type of boiler where the large fire tube or flue be a subsidiary feature of the boiler, which is manifestly of the small fire tube type, in which case it is classified under the fire tube subclasses. See for example, this class, subclasses 47, 48, 50, and 78.

(2) Note. When a large flue in a boiler is essential to the structure and is not a mere subsidiary feature, such patents are classified in the "flue" type of boiler, although small fire tubes are an essential part of the combination, except those type classified in this class, subclasses 47 and 48.
