IMITATION WALL AND TILE CONSTRUCTION.
Speoication of Letters Patent.
Patented July 27, 1915.
Application filed September 26, 1914. Serial No. 863,653.
T o all 'whom t may concern:
B it known that I, ALBERT BRUCKNER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Etna, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented new and useful Improvements in Imitation Wall and Tile Construction, of which the following is a specification. f
My invention relates to wall and tile construction.
-' The objects of my invention are to'make it ossible to construct wall facings and tile acin'gs with different parts of the facings finished differently ina very simple, cheap,
and eicient manner.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a 'rear elevation of a frame-work made' in accordance with my invention; Fig.
' 2, a section of Fig. 1 on the 1in@ n n; Fig.
3, a vertical section of a wall and the said frame-work, showing how my invention is applied -to a wall, a portion ofthe wall facing bein already made; Fig. 4, a front elevation o a wall facing made by my inventieni; Fig. 5, a top plan view of a frame-work for making facings independently of the wall towhich they are to be applied; Fig. 6, a section of Fig. 5 on the line VI-VI; and Fig. 7, a face view of a group of imitation tile faces made by the lframe-work shown on Figs. '5 and 6. Fig. 4 shows a portion of a wall face comprising five imitation blocks each having arectangular face 1 in relief surrounded at each side by the beveled edges 2. The beveled edges of the adjacent blocks forms V-shaped grooves in imitation of the groves between adjacent blocks in stone walls. The horizontal groovesl are continuous while the vertical .grooves between adjacent blocks'terminate opposite themiddle of the blocks above and below the said adj acent blocks, in imitation of the usual manner of breaking joints.
To construct a wall-face having therec; tangular faces and, the V-shaped grooves therein vas shownl 'on Fig. 4, I prefer to pro- -ceed as follows: I construct a frame-work or mold plate 3 which may be simply a plane wall made of boards, on which are arranged lthe plane or flat backed cleats or ribs 4, their cross-section being a right angled triangle. The cleats are arranged in groups of four. Each group of four cleats forming a rectanguiar frame constituting with the inclosed ortion of the mold plate 3 a mold for one imitation block. The cleats have one of their sides adjacent to their right angle in contact with the mold plate 3 to which they are nailed with preferablyinishing nails 5 havlng their hoods driven into the cleats andv their pointed ends projecting through the plate so that pliers may seize the said ends and pull the nails through the cleats and frame. The cleat frames are arranged in rows with the sides of consecutive rows being in contact and the ends of the frames in each row also in contact, the remaining sides of the'cleats adjacent to their right angles being on contact, whereby the contiguous cleats have the same cross-section as the grooves between consecutive faces 1. The
joints between the ends of contiguous frames are midwaybetween the joints at the ends of the frames above and below.
The mold wall comprising the mold plate 3 and the cleats or ribs nailed thereto and arranged as described and as shown on Figs. 1, 2, and 3 is set up in a vertical posi-v tion before the wall 6 to which the imitation facing is to be applied (Fig. 3) with the cleats facing the wall 6 and spaced a short distance therefrom. The material 7, such as cement or concrete, in a plastic or wet state is poured into they mold-space between the wall 6 and the mold-p1ate 3. When the'I material 7 has set it adheres to the wall 6 and its .outer face permanently takes the relief form imposed by the mold-platev andcleats. After the material has set sufliciently, the nails 5 are drawn by pliers or other suitable device outwardly through the cleat-and mold-plate; and the'latter is rey moved leaving the cleats in the V-shaped grooves between the relief faces 1. These faces are then treated with any suitable Huid have been finished, the cleats 4 are rem0ved,`
whereupon the bottoms of the V-shaped grooves may be striped or :otherwise treated to imitate mortar between the imitation blocks. l
Referring now to Figs. 5, 6, and 7, I provide the horizontalAmold-plate 3 to which the cleats or ribs 'i' are secured in the same arrangementv as the cleats 4 are secured to the mold plate 3. The nails 5 may be driven through the mold plate and into the cleats, which in this form of my invention may be permanently secured to4 the mold plate; but these nails may be made removable or other suitable devices be substituted.
Shallow channels 8 are made in the outer angles of contiguous cleats. Colored mortar or Ycement or other plastic material 9 is placed in these grooves to form beads 10 between contiguous blocks or tiles 11'(Fig. 7). After the material 9 has set, the mold plate 3 with the cleats 4 thereon may be used in the manner described with respect to the plate 3 and cleats 4, except that the plate and cleats are removed together from the wall face cast in contact therewith. rThe plate 3 and the cleats 4 thereon with the material 9 in the grooves 8 may remain as shown on Fig. 5 with the cleats 4 projecting upwardly. Cement or the like may be poured over the plate and cleats and beads 9 so that the several imitation blocks castl shall be united by a backing 10 as shown on the left hand part of Fig. 6. After the cement has set, the mold plate is turned bottom side up, when it can be readily strip-ped from the wall or tile facing. This facing can then be secured to walls in any suitable manner. The ribs on Figs.. 1,
2, and 3 may have the groove 8, if desired. K
I claim- 1. 1n a mold for maklng wall and tile facings with multiple relief surfaces thereon, a
4mold-plate against which the said relief lsurfaces may be cast, ribs arranged on the said mold-plate to form depressions between adjacent relief surfaces when the facings are cast in contact with the mold-plate and ribs,
and detachable means connecting the ribs and the mold-plate whereby the mold-plate maybe removed leaving the ribs between the relief surfaces of thefacings, the said mold plate being extended so vas to cover several of the said relief surfaces.
2. 1n a mold for making wall and tile facings with multiple relief surfaces thereon, a mold-plate against which the said relief surfaces may be cast, ribs arranged on the said mold-plate to form depressions between adjacent relief surfaces when the facings are cast in contact with the mold-plate and ribs, and means whereby the ribs may be secured to the mold-plate and nails extending through the mold-plate into the ribs, and beyond the outer face of the mold-plate for detachably securing the mold-plate and the ribs together, the said mold plate being extended so as to cover several of the said relief surfaces.
3. In a mold for making wall and tile faoings with multiple relief surfaces thereon, a
plane mo-ld-plate against which .the said relief surfaces may be cast, plane-backed ribs arranged on the said mold-plate to form depressions between adjacent relief surfaces when the facings are cast in contact with the mold-plate and ribs, and means whereby the ribs may be secured to the mold-plate and the mold-plate may be removed leaving the ribs between the relief surfaces of the facings, the said mold plate being extended so as to cover several of the said relief surfaces.
Signed at Pittsburgh this 23rd day of September, 1914.
