ARTIFICIAL-STONE REFRIGERATOR AND METHOD OF FOHING THE SAME.
Application led May 21, 1926.- Serial No. 110,589.
This invention relates to artificial stone refrigerators and method of forming the s ame. It has to do particularly with the provision of a method of building and forming the refrigerator structure within a wall whereby the refrigerator unit will be completely enclosed within the walls and the front ofthe unit will be flush with the wall. 1
I have found that refrigerators and other similar articles may be formed of artificial stone to present a very compact, light and beautiful refrigerator, or other article, by casting such article of moulded s tone formed, preferably, of an Oxy-chloride cement. Hitherto these artificial stone refrigerators vhave been cast or moulded by various different methods, some of which have contemplated casting the refrigerator' as a solid unit ofstone, and others, the forming` of a reinforcing structure, and the moulding or applying of the plastic stone to the interior and exterior of such reinforcing structure 0r core. The method of applying the plastic stone to the reinforcing core has many advantages over the solid stone refrigerator, but the chief advantage is the fact thaty such reinforced refrigerators may be subjected to various stresses and strains and sudden jolts without' readily cracking or deforming the stone surface of the refrigerator.
The present invention relates to the method of forming a refrigerator unit having parts of its surfaces of artificial stone, but which method of forming is such that the refrigerator may be built with a minimum amount of expense and which mayvbe built on the job and therefore insure a perfect refrigerator ready to use without the necessity of subjecting the same to the jolts and strains incident to shipping.
More specically, this invention relates to Y the casting of the refrigerator unit in its place; that is, the reinforcing core and insulating wall of the refrigerator are built complete` during the building of the house, apartment, or other structure, and upon the completion, or partial completion of the building, the refrigerator may be completed by the placing of suitable dies or cores in the mould formed by the wall and the artificial stonelining of the refrigerator cast complete.
In the drawings:
Fig. l is a perspective view partly eut away showing the novel refrigerator unit built in the wall of a house or apartment.
Fig. 2 is a sectional side elevation showin the rough refrigerator shell built in the wal and illustrating one method of .casting thel artificial stone lining on the job.
Although the present method primarily contemplates the forming of a refrigerator unit within a wall, it will be understood that the refrigerator unit or similar article may be formed or cast any place where the reinn forcing shell, or mould, may be initially built by the person or contractor building the house or other structure, and so long as the rough reinforcing, or defining structure is initially built and the article to be cast may be sim ly cast in its place without the use of any other articles with the exception ofthe casting apparatus. g'
Any suitable form or shape of mould or reinforcing structure may be utilized in per forming my novel method'and in the drawings I have illustrated one method of forming a standard refrigerator unit in a wall. In Fig. l I have'illustrated a refrigerator unit installed complete in a wall. In the performance of this method, as illustrated, the
specifications for the rough wooden box, or
refrigerating unit are preferably submitted t0 the person or contractor building the apartment or other struct-ure. This box may be designated l, and may be very easily and quickly built at the time that the various post-s and connecting joists 2 are nailed in place. This box' will therefore merely form part of the specifications for the buildin Any' suitable insulating material or cori board 3 may' then be fitted in, or nailed to the rough wooden box 1, and such box is then .complete as far as thebuilder is concerned.-
