ticularly to reinforcing means therefor.
The object of the invention is to provide a reinforcing means whiclrwill strengthen the tile to a maximum degree, and which per- .mits of the coupling together-pf the reinforcing elements of adjoining tiles, so that the tiles will neutrally reinforce each other. The invention consists of the-features of construction, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter fully described and claimed, reference being hadto the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a perspective View of a tile provided-With my improved reinforcing and coupling means. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section'in perspective of the same. Fig. 8 is a horizontal transverse section through the tile. Fig. 4 is a detail section illustrating the manner of coupling adjoining tiles. Fig. 5 is a detail View of one of the short supplemental reinforcing and coupling elements.
Referring to the drawing, 1 designates a cylindrical tile formed of cement, clay or other plastic material. Embedded in this tile at fixed inten als around the same are reinforcing and coupling elements 2, each preferably formed of a single piece of wire. Each coupling element 2 is substantially V shaped and its arms 3 and 4 are connected at their converging ends by an elongated loop 5, while the free ends of said arms terminate in hooks (3 having anchoring eXten sions 7 The series of reinforcing and coupling elements 2 are arranged in zigzag relation,
or so that their arms cross each other, the arm 3 of one element crossing the adjacent arm 4 of, the other element at one side, thereof, while the arm 4 of the element in question crosses the arm 3 of the next adj ficent element at the opposite side thereof. By this arrangement the tile is reinforced by a trusswork series of wires, which materially increase its strength and resistance to fracture.
The looped ends 5 project beyond one of the end edges 8 of the tile, while the opposite end edge of the tile is provided with slots 10 Specification of Letters Patent.

and transverse openings 11-. The hooked ends 0 ot the arms of ad acent reinforcing elements-are arranged in lapping relation or in alinement, and slightly spaced apart, and the complementary pairs or sets of hooks terminate adjacent to the slots 10 and with their bight portions in transverse alinement with the openings 11, the hooks of each pair being arranged on opposite sides of the line of theadjaeentslot or recess 10.
The construction described, in addition to providing reinforcement of maximum strength, also adapts adjoining tiles of a conduit to be easily and conveniently coupled together. It will be apparent that the. loops 7 projecting from'the end 8 of one the may be seated in the slots or recesses at the end 9 of an adjacent tile, so asto come between the pairs of coupling hooks 6 of the latter named tile, whereby upon the passage of pins 12 through the openings 11 the tiles may be coupled together. These pins or plugs 12 may be cemented or otherwise suitably secured in place, when it is not desired to provide for the discomiect-ion of the tiles.- It will, of course, be apparent. that the ends 8 of one tile from which the loops 5 project may be coupled with the, end '9 of a tile at (hie end thereof, while the end 9 of the same tile may be connected with the end 8 of another tile at the opposite end thereof, so that a series of tiles may be easily, conveniently and securely coupled together. Fig.
-lshows two adjacent tiles coupled and ready for the insertion of a fastening pin 12. If desired, the end of the tile from which the loops 5 project may be provided with supplc-n'iental reinforcing and coupling elements 13, each comprising-a single piece of wire bent to form. a loop 14 and diverging arms 15. number to thecoupling elements 2 and their loops 1% are arranged opposite and in, parallel relation to the loops the arms 15 and inner ends of said loops 14 being embedded These elements lfi are equal in in the'tile. \Vhen two adjoining tiles are coupled together the loops 5 and 1t of one tile enter the recesses 10 of the adjoining tile and fit between and in. altcrnationwith the hooks 6 of the respective complementary pairs of hooks of the coupling elements. This construction attords a firm and secure coupling connection between adjoining ends of tiles, and at the same time provides for the strengthening it the tlle ends against pi .-;,-:duhty of fracture.
