UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
HAROLD MOORCROFT, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., ASSIGNOR TOAMERICAN DRESSLER TUNNEL ICILNS COMPANY, INC., OF NEW YORK, N. Y.
STANID FOR FIRING GLAZED TILES.
. Application filed August 28, 1915.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, HAROLD MOORCROFT, a subject of the King of England, residing at New York, in the county and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stands for Firing Glazed Tiles, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact specification.
This invention relates to supports or stands'for holding glazed tiles while they are being fired in a kiln, and it has for its object to provide improved means for holding such tiles in suspended position without danger of any portion of the glazed surface of the tile coming into contact with any material which is likely to mar or spoil said surface.
It is also the aim of this invention to provide supporting means which are inexpensive, durable and adapted to hold a large number of tiles in a compact manner so as to economize space.
Other objects will appear as the description proceeds.
The invention will be first hereinafter described in connection with the accompanying drawings, which constitute a part of this specification, and then more specifically defined in the claims at the end of the description.
In the accompanying drawings, wherein similar reference characters are used to designate corresponding parts throughout the several views :Figure 1 is an end View of a series of stands or supports constructed in accordance with this invention, for suspending two rows of tiles. Fig. 2 is a side view of the same. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of one of the standards which are spaced at intervals and serve to support the non-metallic bars which hold the tiles, and Fig. 4 is a perspective view of one end portion of one of said bars.
The standards 1 are preferably made of fire-clay and are formed with widened bases 2 and longitudinal grooves 3 in their tops. These standards are placed in parallel rows, as indicated in Figs. 1 and 2, and fitted in the grooves 3 of the standards in each row is a bar 4 made of non-metallic material such as earthenware or fire-clay.
The bars 4 are preferably rectangular in cross section as shown, although other shapes may be employed, and the grooves 3 in the standards are of corresponding contour so Specification of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 47,766.
that the bars will fit snugly in said grooves. The important feature in the construction or shape of the bars is, however, the provision of sharp corner edges for engagement by the edges of the tiles 5 when the latter are suspended between the parallel bars in diagonal position, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the object being to permit the least possible portion of the bars to come into contact with thetiles to be fired.
The bars may be made of such lengths as are best suited for the tiles being fired, and the thickness of the bars and spacing of the standards will be determined by the same considerations. The bars preferably extend between adjacent standards with each standard supporting the ends of two bars as shown in Fig. 2. It will be observed that when the tiles are supported as illustrated, they may be spaced the desired distance apart and only infinitesimal portions of their edges will be in contact with the supporting means and those parts will engage the non-metallic bars 4 only. At the same time, the tiles may be placed close enough together to greatly economize space, their unglazed faces being placed together and their glazedfaces spaced apart but facing one another, as shown in Fig. 2, which gives a technical advantage.
Having thus described my invention,
what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is 1. Supporting means for firing glazed tiles comprising standards having grooves in their tops, and non-metallic bars seated in said grooves and having sharp angular corners to engage the tiles.
2. Supporting means for firing glazed tiles comprising standards arranged in parallel relation, and non-metallic bars mounted on said standards and having sharp angular corners to engage the tiles when suspended in diagonal position between said bars.
3. Supporting means for firing glazed tiles comprising standards having grooves, and bars of non-metallic material fitted in said grooves and having sharp angular corners to engage the tiles.
4:. Supporting means for firing glazed tiles comprising standards having rectangular grooves therein, and non-metallic bars rectangular. in cross section fitted in said grooves and having sharp angular corners projecting from the standards for engaging the edges of the tiles and supporting them metallic bars seated in the grooves of each out of contact with said standards when row of standards, said bars having sharp the tiles are arranged diagonally between angularcorners to engage the edges of the parallel bars. tile when arranged diagonally between said 5 5. Supporting means for firing glazed parallel bars.
tiles comprising standards having rectan- In testimony whereof I have signed my gular grooves therein, said standards being name to this specification. placed in spaced. parallel rows, and non- HAROLD MOORCROFT.
