0. J1 GALASSI. SINK TOP STRUCTURE. APPLICATION FILED SEPT. 29.1920.
INVENTOR.
BY Ca ATTORNEY- Patented Apr. 11, 1922.
M005) 1/. GAL/186A PATENT OFFICE.
ONOREY J. GALASSI, OF STOCKTON, CALIFORNIA.
SINK TOP srnncrUn-E.
Application filed September 29, 1920.
To all whom it may concern.
Be it known that I, ONOREY J. GALASSI, a citizen of the United States, residing at Stockton, in the county of San Joaquin and State of California, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Sink Top Structures, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a sink top structure, and especially to an ornamental sectional artificial stone covering for the same.
In the building of many houses, and particularly when finishing the interior of kitchens and the like, it has become more or less common practice to finish the walls surrounding the sink, and also the drain boards, with tile. A tile finish becomes permanent once installed as each tile is set in cement; it furthermore requires skilled and experienced labor and therefore costs considerable. A tile finish is without a doubt both permanent, ornamental, sanitary and desirable in every way, but it has a decided draw-back when certain repairs are required. For instance if an old sink has to be removed for minor repairs, or has to be renewed, it becomes necessary to tear out a portion of the tiling covering the drain boards, and also a portion of the tiling covering the surrounding walls before it is possible to remove the sink, and it may here be stated that it is practically necessary to tear out the entire tiling as it is almost impossible to replace new tile that will match the partially worn old tiling remaining in place. It can therefore be seen that a tile finish is not only expensive when first installed, but that italso renders ordinary plumbing repairs expensive as at least a portion of the tiling must be removed and replaced in almost every instance.
One of the objects of the present inven tion is to provide a simple, substantial and durable sink top structure or ornamental covering which consists of a series of slabs, each constructed of artificial stone and colored and polished to produce any finish desired.
Another object of the invention is to so shape and arrange the different slabs that they may be readily and quickly placed in position by any one, whether a skilled mechanic or not, and furthermore so secured that any slab or all may be independently removed without destruction or Specification of Letters Patent.

Serial No. 413,564.
breakage when plumbing alterations or re" pairs are required.
Further objects will hereinafter appear.
The invention consists of the parts and the construction, combination and arrangement of parts as hereinafter more fully described and claimed, having reference to the accompanying drawings, in which Fig. l is a front view in section taken on line 1-1 Fig. 2.
Fig. 2 is a plan view of the sink.
Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the ledge section.
Fig. 4c is a perspective view of one of the drain boards.
Referring to the drawings in detail, A in dicates a standard form of sink, and 2 a wooden frame by which it is supported. The frame is in this instance covered by a pair of drain boards 3 and by an exterior finishing ledge 4. The sink is otherwise finished and ornamented by a wall slab 5.
The structure, forming the subject matter of the present invention, embodies the wall slab, the drain board sections 8, and the finishing ledge 4:. These several sections when assembled form a covering for the wall adjacent the sink, a covering for the drain boards and also a covering for the surrounding ledge. The several sections .are readily assembled and are each independently secured, that is, each section is constructed of artificial stone and each section has cast or otherwise secured thereto bolts 6, by which they may be secured to the wooden frame 2; the joints formed between the several slabs or sections being filled with cement when they are placed in position, thus forming water-tight joints, which will protect the wooden framework disposed below the same. Such a support and mounting renders the several sections readily removable. F or instance if it is desired to remove the sink for repairs or otherwise, it is only necessary to release the bolts securing the ledge member 4 and then to release the bolts securing the drain boards. These may then be removed and the sink may be taken out and repaired, or a new sink may be replaced. The entire operation is ac complished quickly and without danger of breaking the artificial slabs by which the framework is covered.
The drain boards may be provided with inclined ledges as shown at 7 to cause water to flow to the center of the board when draining off the same, and each slab may be colored or finished to suit varying demands. If repairs to the plumbing connected with the faucets are required, it is obvious that the entire wall slab may be removed to gain access to the piping or plumbing contained in the wall. lar manner as it is also provided with bolts.
While the ledge section 4 is here shown as cast in one integral section, it is obvious that two or more sections may be employed which may be separately secured, and while other features of the invention are here more or less specifically shown and described, I wish it understood that various changes in form and proportion may be resorted to within the scope of the appended claims, similarly that the materials and finish of the several parts employed may be such as the experience and judgement of the manufacturer may dictate or varying uses may demand.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent isl. The combination with a sink and a supporting frame therefor, of an artificial stone slab disposed at each end of the sink, said The slab is secured in a simislabs being disposed to form a sloping drain surface, means for independently securing each slab to the frame, a ledge member sur rounding the ends and sides of the slabs and the front of the sink, and means for independently securing said ledge member to the frame.
2. The combination with a sink and a supporting frame therefor, of an artificial stone slab disposed at each end of the sink, said slabs being thicker at one end than at the other to form a sloping drain surface, means for independently securing each slab to the frame, a ledge member surrounding the ends and sides of the slabs and the front of the sink, means for independently securing said ledge member to the frame, a wall slab against which the ledge member and the first named slabs abut, and means for securing the wall slab independently of the ONOREY J. GALASSI.
