Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Dec. 4, 1191?.
To all whom it may concern Be it. known that I, CHARLES V. BossER'r, residing at and whose post-oflice address is 1281 Carroll street. of the city of New York,
in the county of Kings and State of Newv nation. I provide simple and efficient means for locking the sections at the joints without using nails or screws, and also for preventingleakage.
In the accompanying drawing Figure .1 is a vertical transverse sectional view. Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional detail of the joint between the siding sections; Fig. 3 a longitudinal sectional detail of the manner of connecting the roof sections; Figs. 4:, 5 and 6 various forms in which the meeting edges of the metal covering of the roof sections may be united; Fig. 7 a section of the joint .between the floor beam and the sill; Fig. 8 a similar view of the connection between the ridge pole andthe gable end, and Fig. 9 a
fragmentary detail of the parts shown in Fig. 1.
I have illustrated the general formation of the house in conventional design having sides 2 supporting a gable roof 3 and ridge pole 4. It will be understood that thesides and the roofing and flooring are each made up of aseries of sections connected together. Therefore a detail illustration and description of the manner in which one side section is secured to the adjacent section and to the floor beams and roof will suflice without repetition as to all of the corresponding joints, and the sameis true as to the roof .sections. I c
I will first describe the connection between the side sections and the roof. Extending along thetop of these side sections is. a rail 5 formed in its upper face with a double head 6 and a groove 7 A wall plate 8 is supported on the rail 5 and its lower edge is formed with a double groove 9 .simplyplaced down side by side.
adapted to receive the double head 6 of rail 5 and also with a groove 10 adapted to register with groove 7. As illustrated in Fig. 1, the wall plate 8 is wider than rail 5 so as to bring its outer face flush with the weather boarding 12. By the construction described any dampness that may find its way between the rail and wall plate will enter the drip channel formed by the grooves 7 and 10 which intersects a similar drip channel vertically arranged in the meeting edges of the side sections. The double bead and groove connection 6, 9, not only insures a tight joint as against lateral displacement but renders the joint virtually air and water proof.
Extending vertically through the rail and wall plate at their points of connection with the roof, is a bolt 13 having an angular portion 14 extending through the meeting or adjacent stiles 15of two roof sections. See Figs. 1 and 9.
In Fig. 2 I have shown the connections between the sections forming the sides. This is the same as the described connection between the sides and the roof in that the double bead and groove formation is maintained and the drip channel 16 intersects the horizontal drip channel 7. The meeting 20 is the roof proper and 21 the ceiling, providing an intermediate air space. and 22 and 23 the meeting stiles. As illustrated the stile, 22 is rabbeted to receive the stile 23, the
interlocking portion being formed at an' acute angle 24. The adjacent faces "of the stiles 23 and 24 are slightly spaced apart above the rabbeted portion as at 25 and at the bottom of this spaced apart portion is adrip channel 26. The space 25 is adapted to contain the meeting edges of the tin or other metal with which the roof sections may be covered. As illustrated in Fig. 4 the meeting edges of the metal 27 may be simply turned to form angular extremities extending into the space 25 or one of them may be lapped over the other as in Fig. 5, or they may be connected by a double lap joint as in Fig. .6. A bolt 28 is shown connecting the two stiles. In assembling the roof sections whn the meeting edges of the tin are formed as in Fig. 4 the sections may be When these edges are formed as in Figs. 5 or 6 the first section is put in position and the second section placed at the end edge thereof to move along the same longitudinally so as to eifect the proper engagement of the interlocking extremities. The roof sections are connected together at the ridge pole 4 by a bolt 30gFig. 1, one
' ceive the angular, ace of the other.
roof section being referably ra I have shown a metallic strip 31 extending over the meeting edges of the roof sections and covering the bolt and connected to the tin roofing by lap joints 32. r
In Fig. 7 I have shown the construction by which the floor beams and sills are secured together.
. formed with vertically arranged circular reposition the floor beams are inserted byslid-.
ing them intothe sills. The sills being wider than the floor beams their recesses extend downward only sufliciently far to hold the floor beams in the correct position.
In Fig. 8 I have shown the manner'of securing the ridge pole to the gable ends by an beted to re The sills 33 are shownangular bolt 13. substantially the same as shown in Figs. 1 and 9.
I claim 'as m invention l. A portable ouse havin a rail extend: ing1 along the top of its si e sections, said ral having a double bead and a groove 7 in its upper ace, and a wall plate on said rail and formed with a double bead and a oove 10 adapted to re 'ster with said ormer groove to form a drip channel and drip channels in said side sections communicating with said former. channel.
2. In a portable house, side sections having drip channels adjacent their vertical meeting edges, and a rail extending along the top of said side sections, a drip channel being formed in said rail and intersecting said first mentioned channel.
3. In a portable house, roof sections having stiles, the outer face of one stile being rabbeted at an acute angle as at 24 to receivean adjacent stile, a space being 'provided above'said rabbet, 'metal coverings for said roof sections, the meeting edges'of said coverings being united and held-within said space and a drip channel at the inner end of sa1d space.
