Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed Dbcember 22,1913. Serial No.808,102.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, WILLIAM S. PRIDE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Oakland, in the county of Alameda and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Corners for Plastering, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a device for forming and protecting the'corners of plastering for walls.

Itconsists of a rigid structure, preferably of metal, fitting the corner formed by the meeting angles of the wall, and having projections from each of the angular portions substantially at right said projections forming the gage for the thickness of theplaster on the contiguous walls, a space for the plaster interior to said projections, and perforations through which the plaster may pass to form an lnterlock bond.

My invention also consists nation of parts and details of construction which will be more fully explained by reference to the accompanying drawings, in

which- Figure 1 is a detail perspective view of 2 is a horizontal secthe corner plate. Fig.

showing the dev ce tion of a plastered corner applied. Various plastering corners or angle heads have been employed for the meeting angles of plastered corners the laster being often separated at these angles y the construction of the beads. In my invention I have so designed the angle or corner pieces that they will fit into the wood or other work ofthe and they are provided with gages projecting toward, but separated from, each other so that the plaster may be a plied and leveled to the gages and continue on to form a corner between these gages, and also to fill the intervening space and form a perfect lock. I 1

As shown in the drawings, the arts A-A may be of metal bent at an angle to fit the corner of the building, as shown at 2. These parts have projections 3 standing at right angles and approaching each other, but leaving a space between. These projections or gages may be made in forming the angle piece by folding the portions A by means of any suitable former and as plainly shown in the drawangles thereto,-

in the combi which is folded over upon itself or other suitab e material.

ings. The parts A and the gage beads or projections arealso perforated, as shownat 4, so thatthe plaster, when spread upon the walls, may be admitted through these perforations and form a perfect bond.

It will be seen that by the construction here shown a rectan ular space is formed between the angle of the sides A and the pro ectlng strips or gages 3, and-that when the mortar is spread upon the walls A, it also passes into this rectangular space thereby filling it. The edges of the beads 3 forma gage to which the level of the mortar is brought, and the mortar being continued be- .yond these beads forms the proper angle within the rectangle and from the contained mortar. As the perforations pass through the parts A and the beads 3, and also through the interior rectangle, it will be. seen that when the mortar has been spread it will all be united and when set forms a very firm and solid corner which will not be liable to crackafter having set.

I wish it understood that various modifications may be made in the device without departing from the principle of the invention.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. A corner piece and gage for plastering consisting of a metal sheet bent to form a body having a pair of sides which meetjn a substantially right angle, each of the sides of said body having an intermediate part to provide a projection which extends at substantially right angles to the side andis located 'at points between the outer end of the side and the angle formed by the meeting inner ends of the sides, said an le being for engagement with a corner 0 the structure to which the gage is applied, there being a free open space between the entire inner faces of said projections to allow plaster to be engaged wlth said inner faces of said projections throughout the areas of same and also with the inner faces of the sides at the portions of said sides tions.

sides of said body having a substantially between the projec memes right angular projection located at points also with the inner faces of said sides where between the outer end of the side and the same meet in" said angle. angle formed by the meeting inner ends of In testimony whereof I have hereunto set the sides, the outer face of said angle being my hand in the presence of two subscribing 5 for engagement with 'a corner of the strucwitnesses.

ture to which the gage is applied there be- C a ing a free open space between the eiitire inner WILLIAM PRIDE faces of said projections to allow plaster to Witnesses: be engaged with said inner faces of said pro- JOHN H. HERRING,
