"forms one of the sheets of a roof, the said stripV being formed with an opening sur- 'Y rounded, at its sides andlat its top portion by a continuous guide flange, the said. guide flange receiving therein af plate having an opening surrounded by anl upstanding collar which receives therein the top of the smoke pipe of a stove arranged in the building and which likewise -receives thereover a smoke pipeV extension or cowl, the plate and the flange member being soldered together, and the flange memberl being soldered to the strip so as to effect a water tight joint between these members.

To the attainment of the above broadlyrecited objects, the improvement also resides i in certain other novel features of construction set forth in the following description and pointedA out with particularity in the claims:

' In the drawings: 1 Y

Figure 1 Ais a perspectiveview of the means for sealing the joints of'roof pipes in accordance with this invention.

Figure 2 is a sectional view approximately on the line Q-f-Qof Figure 1.

Figure 3 is a sectional'view approximately on the line S-of FigureQ.

Figure-4 is a perspectiveview of the collar carrying plate; Y

In the drawings the numeral 1 designates a building having an inclined or peaked roof. The roof is preferably constructed ofV metal Y sheets 2, and one of these sheets orstrips is, for distinction indicatedby thefnumeral. 3. Of course, the 4confronting edges of the sheets or strips are sealed in the ordinary manner to provide a water tight joint.

" In carryingout my invention the'sheet orv stripis formed rwith fan opening 4. Soldered or otherwise secured'on the outer face` of the sheet or, strip 3 and disposed to the sides and to the upper portionA ofthe walls provided by the o ening 4 there is a continuous substantial y U- shaped guide member 5. The guide 5 is formed .of metal and vmay havel its joints soldered or the same guide 5.

may Vbe .stamped from a, single strip. The

guide includespara'llel Vside portions anda connecting top portion which isV arranged at a right angle to the sides. `The 4strip constituting the side `has its 'inner edges bent upwardly and extended inwardly for the passageof a plate 6. The plate 6 is of a size to be snuglyre'ceived in thev guide, and after the plate is thus arranged and the stove pipe guided therein in a manner which will presently be described, the outer edge of the plate is soldered to the strip or.`

sheet 3. Preferably, andas disclosed by the drawings, the edgesV and u per end of the plate 6 are bulged outwar ly from the plate proper, so that the central portionof the plate from the outer edge thereof is depressed, as indicated by the numeral. 7.V The bulged end and edge of the plate provide what I will term flanges 8 which have aV` tendency to spring away from the plate proper and thereby effectL a tightlfrictional engagement with the inner surfaces ofthe The plate V6 is formed with an opening that is designed to register with theopening 4, the said opening being round and-be-z ing surrounded by an upstanding collar 9. This collar receives therein the smoke pipe 10 from the stove, (not shown) and the vcol, lar also has arranged thereon a pipe pro viding a smoke stack 11 and the smoke stack may have on its outer end an elbow or cowl.

The improvement provides a `means whereby a smoke pipe from a stove may be easily and effectively vdirected through the roof of a buildingand the joint between the smoke stack and theV building efllectively detailed description is not believedfneccsf,"
