Application filed November 22, 1924i. Serial No. 751,431.
This invention relates to shingles and par ticularly to flexible shingles which are cut from strips of suitable material. One object of the invention is to provide shingles which can be laid on the roof in such a manner as to present an improved appearance. Another object is to form the shingles and to lay them on the roof so. as to lock down the exposed portion of the shingles and thus to prevent the edges turning upwardly because of warping or bending by winds or the like. Another object is to provide shingles so formed that they can be laid on the roof so as to form a Very dependable covering which will not allow the rain to leak through or to be driven through by winds. Other objects of the invention will be apparent from the accompanying drawings and the following description thereof:
0f the drawings: Fig. 1 is a plan view of a strip of shingle material indicating how the strip units are cut from the material; Fig. 2 is a plan view of the assembled shingles on a roof; Fig. 3 is an enlarged plan view of a strip unit, showing the details thereof; Fig. a is a reduced plan view of a single shingle; and Fig. 5 is a plan View of a modified form of strip unit.
The shingles in this instance which 1 prefer are what are called strip shingles, being composed of more than one shingle unit. For simplicity l have illustrated astrip 5 containing two units 6 and 7, bltl'; more units may be contained in each strip if .de-
sired, or the shingles may be cut as individual units 8, Fig. 4.. in cutting out the shingles a strip such as is indicated by Fig. 1 may be used, and the shingles are so formed as to use substantially the entire strip without waste. The portion 9 may be eliminated or may be left on the exposedportion of the shingle as desired. Fig. 5 shows the modified form with the portion 9 attached.
and wings 1d, projecting onetongue under the edge 15 of the lower shingle and the other tongue of the ,unit under the edges 16 of two adjacent shingles in the lower row. This not only properly positions the upper shingles, but prevents the lower edges from turning upwardly and laps the upper shingles on the lower ones sufficiently to prevent leakage of the roof, and it also provides a double thickness of the exposed edges 13. This latter effect makes the edge more prominent, and improves the appearance of the roof. With the tongues bent downwardly and especially with the edges 15 and 16 bent upwardly the shingles are much more readily placed in position and the slightly elevated edges also emphasize the design of the roof and add to the appearance. As to the appearance in general it is to be understood that the exact magnitude of the exposed angles, and in fact the general shape of the exposed portions, may be modified without departing from the spirit of my invention.
Fig. 4 shows a shingle unit consisting of 0ne-half of an ordinary strip shingle. These shingles are laid substantially the same as the strips, butas additional guiding means the adjacent ends 171 are brought into con; tact and registry when the tongue 10 has been slipped under two adjacent edges 18. With these shingles the appearance of the roof is substantially the same as with the strip shingles. In either case the nails for holding down the shingles may be driven at the points 18 and the nails and nail holes will be covered by the overlying shingles.
The shingle of Fig. 5 is substantially the same as the shingle of Fig. 3, except the piece 9 is not cut from the strips but is retained so as to prevent any waste' and to modify somewhat the appearance of the roof, and also as a slight additional protection.
I claim as my invention:
1. A composition shingle comprising a.
2. A composition shingle comprising a body portion with a wing projecting from one edge thereof and a tongue integral with the said wing but spaced a material distance from the edges thereof and extending up-.
3. A composition shingle comprising anv elongated body portion, two wings projecting from'one of the edges of said body portion, said wings being spaced apart a material distance, and each of said wings having a tongue fixed thereto and spaced a material distance inwardly from the edges of the wings, said shingle having a recess in the edge between the point of connection thereto 01": said wings, said recess being adapted to receive the tongue of an underlying shingle. v
4. A composition shingle comprising an elongated body portion, two wings projecting from one of the edges of said body portion, said wings being spaced apart a material distance, and each of said wings having a tongue fixed thereto and spaced a material distance inwardly from the edges of the wings, said shingle having a. recess in the edge between the point of connection thereto .35
of said wings, said recess being adapted to receive the tongue of an underlying shingle, the inner edge of said recess being bent upwardly to receive said tongue.
5. A composition shingle comprising a body portion having a straight-edge side with a wing projecting angularly from said edge, and a tongue integral with the said wing but spaced a. material distance from the edges thereof and extending upwardly towards said body portion and adapted to pass under the said straight-edge side of the body portion of an adjacent underlying shingle.
6. A composition shingle comprising an elongated body portion, a plurality of wings project-ing from one of the edges of said body portion, said wings heingispaced apart a material distance, and one of said wings having a tongue fixed thereto and spaced a material distance inwardly from the edges of the wing, said tongue being adapted to pass under the body portion of another underlying shingle.
In testimony whereof, ll hereunto set my hand. 1
