But, before I proceed. it may be proper to state that.
having been in the Safe business over six years. In both
city and country, and having traveled in this business
over much of the Eastern, Middle, and Western States,
I have never found a circular lamed by any Safe-maker
which even pretended in the least to enlighten the peo
ple as to the fundamental principles applicable to the
Safe, either as a fire or burglar-proof ; and I can say,
also, that during this time I have scarcely founds, man,
even though be had been the owner of a Safs for years,
that could tell anything of its structure beyond its ex
terior, and even in that his knowledge seemed vague
and indefinite. I have found the owners ignorant as to
the principle relied upon against lire. and nearly so as
to resistance against the burglar, Bow, why is thief
I ray there is but one rational solution to this question.
The maker bas net had suMelent confidence in his
structure to apply thoroughly and perfectly the princi
ples hect the objeote ;
thereftore, at must be relied upon to eff the people have been left in darkness rather
than light upon this whole matter. and should I sue
cud in this attempt to throw any light Imon thin ant,
ject r my object wit! have been effecied, With these remarks, I will proceed with my proposition
in the following c rder
Filet, I shall notice the indispensable requirements
necessary to make a Fireproof reliable.
Second, The oedema defects in the common safe as a.
Fire la ,. of
Third. The great advantages the Chilled Iron Safe
possesses as a Fire proof.
Fourth. The indispensable requirements necessary to
make a Burglar-proof reliable. -
Fifth, The serious defects in the common Safe as a Burg
lar-proof
Sixth, The great advantages the Chilled Iron Safe pos
sesses as a Burglar-paoar
First What is required to make a Fire- proof reliable?
The first requisite is strength—strength sufficient to re
sist the fall or heavy walls or timbers diso. to pretect
Itself, in its own fall, from being crushed. The second
requisite is ability to resist the action of heat, which is
frequently very intense and of long duration.
Second. What are the defeats in the common Safe as a
Fireproof?
The common Safe is made of sheet iron plates, usual
ly one-sixteenth to one-twentieth of an inch thick.
These plates are not looked at the joints, bat are riveted
to bands along the edge and across the centre, on the
outer surface. On the inner surface comes the filling or
fireproof composition; . and next comes the wood or
book case. This constitutes the whole structure, except
thedoor flanges, backdoor plate, and the jams for
flanges into which thedoor shuts. I now appeal to any
good mechanic or ironworker, to any master builder or
master mason to say, from their best knowledge and
=dement. whether such a strucaire. composed of thin
plates of iron, has eireng.h sufficient to resist the fall of
heavy walls or timbers, perhaps from a great distance,
vtathout serious ininrY; or even to protect itself in a fall,
perhaps. from the ,hird or !earth story, without being
crushed or badly damaged.
Indeed. it must be evident to any man of ordinaryindg
meat end experience that Each a structure is greatly de
ficient in strength. The common Safe will be thund
equally defective in its ability to resist the action of
heat. To illustrate this point more fully, I will first state
that water is the great fire annihilator, fire's natural
enemy, and that Safe-makers generally, after having
tried a great variety of experiments, have adopted water
as the best protector against fire. To make water avail
able, as applied to the Sa'e, different compositions are
nerd that are called absorbents—that take np and hold
water—such as plaster. lime, and other compounds.
There absorbents in the Safe are called fire-proof filling,
and are designed, 'when heated, to produce vapor or
stesm ; and the greater the supply, and the longer it can
be retained in the Safe, the greater the protection. is the
structure of the common Safe adapted to this object ? It
is made up of johlle. The thin plates warp and spring,
the joints open, and the steam misfit pass out as fast as
generated, end machos this moisture must pass out by
evaporation through thej Diets before the Ore cornea But.
it may be said, Why rely upon steam or vapor at all?
'Why not use the material that is the best non-conductor,
and rely upon that?
I anewer, the principle is not applicable to the Safe. for
the reason that iron flanges must be used to hold the door
when open,- and there must be iron jams or flanges to
hold the door When closed. The latter mast extend back
to the book-case. to hold the filling or composition. and,
as far as possible, prevent evaporation. Iron is a free
conductor of heat. anti will set the wood on fire. as the
non. conducting material cannot beplaced between it and
the wood; but so long as there is vapor or steam to act
upon the iron, it cannot heat to act neon the wood.
Bence the necessity of water in the form of vapor or
steam.
Third. Vilna are the great advantages possessed by the
Chilled ilron Safe as a Fire-proof? The Chilled Iron
Safe is made of a network of wrought-iron bars. 1-4 inch
to 3-16 thick, and 2 to 3 inches wide, according to the
size of safe. 3.4 inch holes are drilled through these bars
over the whole surface, leaving a space of about two
inches between them, and the space between the bars Is
about a half inch. These bars form the inner surface
ot the body of the Safe. Into these bars cast iron is
Poured, which tills up the holes In the bars and the space
between the bars, and ties the one thoroughly to the
Other. and at the same time the cast iron covers the outer
surface of these bars 3-4 to 11-2 Inch thick, making the
thickness solid Iron /1-4 to 2 inches, according to size of
Safe. The bare will not break and the cast iron will not
bend; therefore, the one mutates the ether. The bars
are perfect chillers to the cast iron. which makes it
Drill-proof;and as the Safe is cast in one piece, it is
without mints, except the door. The door flanges and
jams are ranch stronger in the Chilled Mon than the
common Safe, and more firmly attached. Pare lime is
the beet absorbent, and is adapted to the Chilled Iron
Safe, as weight is not required. In the common Safe it
is mixed with dry or some heavy substance, as weight
is required, which materially lessens the quantity of
water or vapor.
Having thus minutely given the structure of the
Chilled Iron and the common Safe, it will be very easy
to form correct conclusions as to their merits.
Dv ill be observed, first, that the medium sired Chilled
Iron Safe has a solid body of wrought and east iron, one
and a half inches thick, without mints or rivets, and
must neeetesrily .retist the fall of walls and timbers;
also, that a tall cannot injure cr crush it And should it
crack on the outer surface by heat or water, the crack
can only extend to the bars, leaving at least a hail Inch
in thickness of solid iron, that cannot crack.
Second, That it cannot warp, or spring. or get out of
share, and AR there is no joist but the door,
and fin that
expands when hot, so as to fill up the joint. the Safe bre
comes vapor-tight, and the vapor cannot escape. Also.
that there is no lose by evaporation before the fire, as
there are no Joints.
Third. That the action of heat through solid trent%
inches thick is mild and will produce only a vapor,
while the action of the saws beet through a thin Iron
plate will produce steam. and that the vapor can be re
tained in a Safe. while the steam must go out. Further,
that so long as team or vapor can be retained in any
Sale the contents s are eeenre.
Having thus fairly and candidly presented the funda
mental principles applicable tO the Safe as a Fire-Proof.
with their bearings and effect., and having Shown, as I
think. most conctusively, the very great advantages the
Chilled Iron Cafe possesses over the common Safe as a
Fire-Proof. I propose to continue this article to the next
issue. it being quite lengthy, when I shall take up the
three next points in their order. and shall endeavor to
show the very great advantages the Chilled iron Safe
has over all others as a Burglar-Proof
