ROOFING TILE,
Lemma.
, tile of the character speciiied, 'formed from plastic material as for instance cement, concrete or the like, wherein theJ tile is o' such construction that it can lbe made in a variety oi" lengths and requires no special Vskill in laying.
In the drawings:
Figure l is a plan view of a portion ofV roof formed from the improved tiles,
Figures 2 and 3 are sections on the lines 2 2 and 3-3, respectively of Figure l,
Figure A is a'perspective view of one of the tiles, and
Figure 5 is a rear view. l In the present embodiment of the inven` tion the improved tile which Vmay be ot any desired width and length is composed of ce ment and sand preferably, and each tile 1 is curved transversely as shown to form in the upper face of theV tile a trough, leading from one end to the other. At one side edge each tile has a downwardly curved portion 2, and at the other side edge each tile has a trough or gutter 3 which is adapted to receive the downwardly bent portions 2 of the adjacent and succeeding tiles.
This gutter as clearly shown in Figure l is of greatest width at the top of the tile and gradually decreases in-width toward the bottom, and the bottom of the trough is iiat or plane. t its upper end each tile has an opening a in the central trough for receiving a nail or the like to secure the tile in l place, and on its underface and near its lower end each tile has a transverse bar or lug 5, which is adapted to engage the upper end of the succeeding tile in the vertical course for limiting the lapping of the succeeding tile onthe preceding.
Referrin@V to Figure 1, it will be noticed that the tilaes of each horizontal course are Specification of Letters Patent. Patented May 2, 1922# i Application filed September 16, 1920. Serial No. 410,806. y
laid with the downwardly curved portion 2 ofthe succeeding tiles in the gutters 3 of the preceding tiles. The next horizontal course is laid with the ends of the tiles of' at their yupper ends.- The nails which are driven through the openings 4 are hidden andV covered by they lower endsof the succeeding course.Vv The improved tiles can be made in a variety of lengths and they have nothing in their construction tolimit their. overlapping when set on the roof. N o skill is required in the laying, and thev curving transversely of the tile by means of which the outer edges of the tile .are elevated, shields the ljoints between the tiles. The curve of the tile transversely provides between the trough at each side of each tile a rounded rib or ridge extending the full length of the tile and shielding the joint.
I claim: Y
l. A tile of plastic material having a body portion curved transversely and adapted'to be laid with its concaved face upwardly, each tile having at one side edge adownwardly curved portion extending Vthe full length of the side edge and having at the other side edge a longitudinally extending' trough extending the full length of the said side edge, the tile having a transversely eX- tending rib on its lower face and near its lower end for engaging the top of the adjacent tile in the preceding course.
2. A tile of plastic material having a body portion curved transversely and adapted to be laid with its concaved :tace upwardly, each tile having at one side edge a downwardly curved portion extending the iull length of its side edge and having at its other side edge a tapered longitudinal trough having a fiat bottom wall and extending the full length of the said side edge.
