UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JAMES SMITH AND MAXFIELD E. CONSTABLE, OF DEPOSIT, NEW YORK..
STRIP SHINGLE.
Application filed May 31, 1923.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JAMES SMITH and MAXFIELD E. CONSTABLE, citizens of the United States, residing at Deposit, and county of Broome, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Strip Shingles, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention relates to strip shingling and it has for its object to provide a form of strip shingle in sectional form; simple in construction, having superior wearing quality and fire resistance of a high degree; being more rigid than other forms and possessing an adaptability in being moulded and fashioned in various artistic forms and adapted to form a component part in the artistic design of a roof.
With these objects in view, our invention consists in certain novel features of construction and arrangement of parts as will be hereinafter more fully described and pointed out in the claims; reference being had to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 is a plan view of our device,
Fig. 2 is a front edge view of our device,
Fig. 3 is an end edge view of our device,
Fig. 4: is an end view of a moulded form of our device,
Fig. 5 is a plan view of a roof section formed from our device,
Fig. 6 is a perspective view of our device and Fig. 7 is a plan view of a modified form of our device.
The same reference characters denote like parts in each of the several figures of the drawings,
In carrying out our invention, we provide a. sectional strip A of our device, formed of an outer surface of a layer of slate surface roofing b, or other weather wearing and adaptable flexible material; on the under side of this layer of roofing, we apply a layer of adhesive material 0, of lesser width than the upper strip 6, of the surface roofing, and over this surface of adhesive material, we mount a strip or section of thin metal cl, such as tin or other light bending material, as reinforcing material and on the under side of this, we apply a coating of paint. The outer slate surface material I), being for the weather or other wearing surface, the adhesive material 0, being for the Serial No. 642,431.
purpose of securely adhering the reinforcement section (Z to the weather wearing sec tion 5, as well as forgiving a coating for reinforcing material.
This section A. thus formed of successive layers of material of the Width and position and placed, as before described, is then placed in appropriate moulds or shapes and pressed or moulded into the form B or shaped as shown in Fig. 6, having a central curved ridge 2, terminating on each side into the horizontal extending sections 3, 3 and so the sectional portion of roofing A is made up, when shaped, of a series of ridges 2, 2 with alternate valleys 3, 3, as shown in Figs. -l and 5, each section having the front portion made up of the layers of material 7), 0, (Z, as before described. These sections B are then applied to the roof by first laying at its lower edge, a flat strip of surface material 5, made upof flat sections A, A along its entire length; upon this flat strip or section, is laid. a series of curved sections 13, B, the flat extension 3 of one section, joining the extension 3 of the next section and so on until the entire course of the shingle strip B is laid with its alternative ridges and valleys as shown in Figs. 4 and 5. These layers are alternate, so that their joints will meet over the solid surface of the section A beneath.
Another feature of our device is that one layer section is laid over the next lower section by placing the second metal strip slightly overlapping the metal strip next beneath and fastening it by nailing thru the overlapped courses of metal strips and in this manner, no matter what the wear on the exposed Weather portion is, there is a resultant metal roof beneath.
On another form of our device, we have the section A, formed as shown in Fig. 7, having in the Outer reinforced edge, the interstices or recesses i, l, having the ends thereof 5, 5' at an angle, togive an artistic effect when laid to the roof.
It is to be further noted these metal reinforcing roofing sections are capable of being moulded or fashioned into several artistic forms of roofing and roof, by moulding the same thru pressure in moulds adapted for the purpose. The open ends of the ridges of the lower course may be closed by blocks of wood 6, 6.
Having thus described our invention, what we-elaim as new and for which We desire Letters Patent, is follows:
1. A roofing sheet consisting of a lower layer of metal and an upper layer of slate surfaced roofing, adhesive connecting said layers togetheix the lower layer being of less width than. the upper layer and both of said layers being provided with. alternate flat and semi-cylindrical convex portions.
'2. The combination With a roofing foundation sheet, of a number of roofing sheets superposed on the foundation sheet and having overlapping edges, each or said roofing sheets over the foundation sheet consisting of a lower layer of metal and an upper layer of slate surface roofing, the lower layer be ing 01 less Width than the upper layer and said roofing sheets above the foundation sheet being so overlapped that the lower layers of the sheet overlap one another and provide an unbroken metal roofing surface (fOVGlQCl by an unhroken slate surface roofing, each of the roofing sheets aloove the foundation sheet being provided with alternate flat and semi-cylindrical convex portions.
In testimony whereof We have afliXed our signatures.
JAMES SMITH.
