Application filed June 5, 1925.
,My invention relates to a metal coping particularly useful on a rough brick wall.
The general object of my invention is to provide a novel and practical metal coping to be used in lieu of glazed tile copings and possessing none of the disadvantages of the latter, such as the difficulty of causing a proper union between the tile coping and the cement bed and the difficulty of effecting a proper seal at the joints.
My invention has in view the production of a metal coping which will effectively interlock with a cement filling to constitute a bed for the coping and to provide an effective connection between the ends of adjacent coping sections.
Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification, it being understood that the drawings are merely illustrative of one example of the invention.
Figure 1 is a transverse vertical section of a coping formed in accordance with my invention showing the same applied to the top of a wall on line 2-2 of Fig. 1;
Figure 2 is a longitudinal vertical section;
Figure 3 is a plan view of the coping.
In carrying out my invention in practice in accordance with the illustrated example, the coping is formed in sections 10 sloping for the major portions from the center of each section to opposite sides after the manner of a peak roof. Each section has vertical depending side edges 11 overlapping the sides of the wall A as clearly seen in Figure 1.
One edge of each coping section 10 is depressed and then return bent to form, seam members 12 lying in practice substantially level with the main body of the tile section. At the opposite end of each section 10 is a bend returned at the under side instead of the upper side to form a seam member 13. Thus, the member 12 at one end of a coping section 10 may be engaged by the seam member 13 of the next adjacent section.
At the ridge or apex of each reversely sloping coping section 10 and depending from the under side thereof is a longitudinally disposed anchoring member 14 con- Serial No. 35,202.
10 and secured thereto at the respective sides of the ridge line as by rivets 17 The anchoring member l t is embedded in the filling 18 of cement beneath the coping sections. Said anchoring member together with the engaged seam members 12 and 13 result in the cement and metal coping forming a unitary body having tight joints and having a permanency greater than the tile copings.
I would state furthermore that While the illustrated example constitutes a practical embodiment of my invention, I do not limit myself strictly to the exact details herein illustrated, since, manifestly, the same can be considerably varied without departure from the spirit of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, I claim:
1. A coping for walls comprising metal sections, each having at one end a returned seam member at the upper side and at the opposite end a seam member returned at the under side for connection respectively with co-engaging seam members on adjacent sections, said sections sloping from approximately the medial line toward the sides, and an anchoring member disposed on each of said sections beneath the ridge thereof, and consisting of a vertical web having a T-head at the lower end and having oppositely sloping flanges at the upper end secured to the material of the coping section.
2. A coping composed of sloping metal sections having means at the ends thereof to engage adjacent sections, and an anchoring member depending from the under side of the coping at the approximatecenter, said anchoring member including an inverted V portion lying against and secured to the underface of the coping, and including a portion adapted to embed itself in cement when the coping is in position in a Wall.
3. A coping composed of inverted V- shaped metal sections, and anchoring members onthe sections at the under side, said anchoring members having a vertical Web h v ng sloping Sides, flanges at the exand a T-head at the under side and upper tremities of said sides to embrace a wall and ends conforming to the slope of the under n anchoripglmember depending from the 10 surface of the apex of the coping sections coping sectlon at the medial line and having 5 d Secured th t 1 means thereon to inter-engage with cement.
