1. 3' 41170 (W n11 BM-c215? z ALFRED TURTON, OF BROOKLYN, NEV YORK.
REINFORCED SHEA'IHING.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Apr. 12, 1921.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, Anrnno TURTON, a subject of the Kin of Great Britain, and a resident of New ork, borough of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Reinforced Sheathings, of which the following is a full clear, and exact specification.
This invention relates more particularly to a class of' devices adapted to be used for lathing the walls of buildings.
My invention has for its object primarily to provide a sheathing designed to be employed on the walls of buildings and other structures so that plaster and stucco may be applied thereto without the danger of accidentally separating from the walls as well as being of a form providing for the circulation of air in ,a manner for serving to facilitate theevaporation of moisture absorbed, by the plaster, and which is adapted to be made practically waterproof, besides permitting the use of wood laths to be dis pensed with. The invention consists essentially of a base sheet element having interior cells for the circulation of air, besides having a grooved surface and on the grooved surface is an intersticed surface element upon which the plaster is applied to that portions of the plaster will pass through the interstices into the grooves of the base sheet element for anchoring the plaster against tendency to accidentally separate from the sheathing.
- Other objects of the invention are to provide the base surface element of substantially waterproof material when desired; to pro- Vide in the interior of the base surface element reinforcing stays to which the intersticed surface element is fastened; and to provide a sheathing of a simple, efiicientand durable construction.
With these and other objects in view the invention will be hereinafter more fully described with reference to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification in which similar characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in all the views,
and will then be pointed out in the claims Fig. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional View taken through one form of the base element used in the sheathing.
Fig. 3 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional View taken through a slightly diiferout form of the base element. a
Fig. 4 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view taken through still another form of the base element.
F ig. 5 is an enlarged fragmentaryview, partly broken away, showing an elevation of part of the sheathing with a form of fastening the intcrsticed surface element to the base element, and
F ig. 6 is an enlarged fragmentary view, partly broken away, showing an elevation of part of the sheathing with another manner of fastening the intersticed surface element to the base element.
The sheathing has a base element 10 which may be in the form of a sheet or strip'of a suitable width and length, and while this base element may be made. of any appropriate material it is preferably made of paper or other flexible material adapted to be marketed at a reasonable price. When the element 10 ismade of paper or like material it may be coated with layers, as 11, 01 asphaltum or other moisture resisting matcrial to make it practically waterproof. The element has a back or sheet member 12, and on one face of the back is a grooved surface or corrugated member'13. This member- 13 is held to the back member 12 by the apices of the corrugations on one face of the member 13 being cemented or otherwise secured to the back member, especially when the base element 10 is made of paper,- since the base element is the form of a paper product commonly used for packing merchandise and the like. By providing the corrugated member in this manner on'back member 12 the spaces between these members serve as cells or grooves 14, for the circulation of air, while between the corrugations on the exposed face of the member are spaced grooves 15, as will be hereinafter more fully explained.
On the apices of the exterior of the corrugations of the member 13 of the element 10 is an intersticed surface element 16. This intersticed element may be of plaited or perforated metal, but I prefer to employ wire mesh or strands of wlre which is interwoven to provide interstices as 17, of somewhat, hexagonal or diamond or square shapes. This intersticed surface element is fixed to the base element 10 and the base element is also reinforced by providing in a number of the grooves or cells 14 of the base element. spaced stiffeners or stays or rods, as 18. The intersticed element may be fastened to spaced parts of these rods by soldering parts of the element, as at 19-Fig.
1, to the rods following the puncturing of the corrugated member 13of the base ele- 13 of the base elements 10 may be of the formation, as shown at 22 Fig. 3, or the corrugations may be of the formations, as shown at 23 F1 4, instead of the formations shown in Fig. 2.
I to allow of being sold and transported in v In practice the sheathing is preferably made in strip like form of a suitable Width rolls. To-provide a wall, as 24, by the use of the sheathing, as illustrated in Fig. 1, a suitable number of the strips are secured by appropriate means one'above the'other on the uprights or joists, as 25, of the wall so that the intersticed element 16 provides the exterior surface of the sheathing. One or a number of coats or layers of plaster, as26, is then spread upon the intersticed element in a manner so that the plastic material will pass through the interstices 17 as well as passing into the grooves 15 of the corruated member 13 of the base element 10. he plaster will then be held on the sheathing against tendency to become accidentally displaced, and the air circulating through the cells 14 of the sheathing will serve to cause early drying of the moisture of the plaster as well as serving to effectually cause evaporation of moisture which the plaster ma afterward absorb.
n the foregoing description, I have emspaced bodied the preferred form of my invention, but I do not wish to be understood as limiting myself thereto, as I am aware that modifications may be made therein without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention, therefore I reserve to myself the right to make such changes as fairly fall within the scope thereof.
Having thus described my invention, '1 claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:-
1. A sheathing, comprising a base sheet element having interior spaced grooves,
, spaced stays disposed in the grooves of the sheet element, and an intersticed surface element on one face of the sheet element secured to the stays. I
2. A sheathing, comprising a base sheet element with interior grooves and also'having exterior grooves in one ofits faces, stays disposed in the interior grooves, and an intersticed surface element on the grooved exterior of the sheet element secured to the stays.
3. A sheathing, comprising a base element composed of a moisture resisting sheet member with a moisture resisting grooved sheet member on one of its faces providing air cells between the members, spaced metallic stays in a number of the air cells, and a metallic intersticed surface element on the exterior of the grooved member.
4. A sheathing including a base element formed of a flat backing sheet with a corrugated sheet secured to one side thereof, stay rods arranged in corrugations of said corrugated sheet between the latter and the backmg sheet, and an intersticed element on the outer face of the corrugated sheet fastened at intervals-to say stay rods.
This specification signed and witnessed this 20' day of October, A. D. 1919.
ALFRED TURTON.
