590,371. Incubators. ADAMS, D. J. April 26, 1945, No. 11036/44. [Class 5 (ii)] [Also in Group X] An incubator is heated by hot water fed from a boiler outside the incubator through circulation pipes inside the incubator, the boiler being heated by a fuel burner whose combustion gases are deflected to heat the boiler, by a pivoted cap thermostatically controlled through intermediate lever gear, by the temperature in the incubator. The incubator K is heated by hot water circulating through pipes F from an external boiler E, the combustion gases of a fuel burner L passing-directly through a chimney A or being deflected to pass through heating tubes in the boiler E, as determined by a pivoted closure B actuated through linkage by an expansible capsule G within the incubator. Temperature-setting is effected by a slidable weight J in conjunction with a threaded rod I.
