JOHN SCH'UMACHER, 0F LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA.
GOVERING FOR JOINTS 0F WALL BOARD.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN SCHUMACHER, a citizen of the United States, resident of Los Angeles, in the county ofLos Angeles and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Coverings for Joints of Wall Board, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to covering for joints between lengths of wall board, and pertains especially to strips of covering-material which may be used to simulate courses of masonry.
It is an object of this invention to provide a light weight, single sheet strip, which will closely hug the face of the plaster board at its edges. To this end, a resilient strip having edges which will conform to the face of the plaster board is provided.
herein, the. vertical joints of the courses are staggered. .Whe're a smooth flat wall is desired, it is usual to cement the joint indicated by 4. With my construction, 'these joints are covered by strips 5.
Referringmore particularly to Fig. 2, the
strips are preferably formed of sheet metal having side' edges 6 bentdownwardly at angles from a concave portion 7. The strips arecut in lengths conforming to the length of the joints in the plaster board and secured to the wall by nails 8, which are driven through the concave portion and into the frame of the structure. Due to the resiliency of the strip and its specific form, the edges '6 are forcedtight against the face of the plaster board lengths so that no crevices appear. It isobvious that by reason of the flat side faces, strips may be placed interme- Specificati on of Letters Patent. Patent d M 23 1922 Application filed June 11, 1921.
Serial No. 476,895.
diate parallel strips and form smooth junctures.
The strips are raised from the face of the plaster board and have the appearance of courses of mortar or cement between, which may be accentuated by painting the portion 7 the color of mortar. It is obvious that in addition to covering the joints, strips may be applied to give the appearance of smaller stones, thereby lending itself to ornamentation of the wall, such as is desired. It is also apparent thatthe strips may be manufactured in long lengths and cut into correct sizes for use in building the walls.
What I claim is:
1. A covering strip for wall board comprising an integral strip of resilient material having a metal face with symmetrical sides upset therefrom inclined outwardly from each other in a direction awayfrom said metal face so that the strip will be supported on its edges.
2. A covering strip for wall board compri'sing an integral strip of resilient material having a central face with sides upset therefrom and inclined outwardly from each other in a direction away from said central face so that the strip will be supported on its edges.
3. A covering strip for wall board comprising an integral stripof resilient material having a central rounded face with sides upset therefrom and i flclined outwardly from each other in a direction away from said central face so that the strip will be supported on its edges.
4. A covering strip for wall board comprising an integral strip of resilient material having a central rounded face with symmetrical sides upset therefrom and inclined outwardly from each other in a direction away from said. central face so that the strip will be supported on its edges.
5. A covering strip for wall board comprising an integral strip of resilient material having a central concave face with sides upset therefrom inclined outwardly from each other in a direction away from said central face so that the strip will be supported on its ed 'es.
6. K covering strip for wall board comprising an integral strip of resilient material having a central concave face with symmetrical sides upset therefrom and inclined outwardly from'each other in a direction away from said central face so that the strip will be supported on its edges.
7. A covering strip for wall board comprising an integral strip of sheet metal having a central concave face with symmetrical sides upset therefrom and inclined out- \vardly from each other in a direction away from said central face so that the strip will 10 be supported on its edges, said central face having apertures to receive nails.
In witness that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto subscribed my name this 27th day of May, 1921.
