1929- L. T. PETERSEN 4 ROOF OR EAVE EDGING Filed March 23, 1927 L. IPeZer'se-nr Patented Aug. 6, 1929.
LESLIE T. PETERSEET, OF DENISON, IOWA.
ROOF on new: EDGING.
Application'filed March 23, 1927. Serial No. 177,751.
The present invention relates to improvements in eave cdgings and has for an object to provide a metallic edging for roofs of various construtions in which a single construct-ional form of device is adaptable for use in a. variety of circumstances, as when providing an edging for old or new shingled roofs.
Another object-of the invention is to provide an im 'iroved cave edging which. will so cooperate with the roof structiure as to pre vcnt the entrance of wind and rain and to protect the edge of the root and to avoid wind gettin beneath and tearing the shingles out.
The invention is intended to import, to the root {L smooth, neat finish and appearance, the metal readily acquiring the point With the foregoin and other objects in view, the invention will be i'nore fully described hereinafter, and will be more particulnrly pointed out in the cla ms appended hereto. I
In the drawings, wherein like out the several views, v
Figure l. is a fragmentarv perspective view of a lniilding equipped w tie invention.
l igure 2 an edge view oi" the device.
Figure 3 is a fragmentary perspec ive view showing the device as applied to the lower edge oi one type oi roof.
Figure 4; is a similar view showing the device as applied to the lower edge of a different type of root, and
Figure 5is also a frag'menary perspective view with parts shown in section and indicating the use of the device upon the side edge of the roof.
Referring more perticularly to the drawings the device is made from a thin lat piece oil sheet metal of the length of the roof edgiing to be covered and having su'llicieut width to enable the metal she t to be bentupon itseli providing the upper wider member 6, the lower shorter clampin aw member 7 and the connecting yoke or web 8 by which the outer ends of th members 6 and Tare joined together. These members 6 and 7 extend in directions which are generally parallel, although the lower member 7 is inclined upwardly toward the member 6 and forms with the plane of the web 8 an acute angle. By virtue of the inherent resiliency in the motel plying the device to the roof structure, and
this stress is taken advantage oi in assir-rting:
to hold the edging member upon the root and to, form a wind an d water tight oint to protect the edges of the shingles.
' The upper member 7 may also be given a slight inclination downwardly from the weh 8 it d asired to further assist the clamping action. The free edge of the upper member (3 is bent inwardly, as indicated at 9, and iho resiliency of the sheet metal material will. act to resist any tendency to move this beveled edge back outwardly into the plane of the member 6 and any tendency to accomplish this will also be transmittedto the member 6 and will. l3 further resisted at the joint between the member 6 and the web 8. Furthermore, the diagonally disposed free edge of the member 6 constitutes a hit ing claw ll) for embedding itself into the shingles and thus -torming a tight joint.
i In Figure 1 is shown a roof structure 11 generally having the device along both the lower horizontal edge and the side edges of the roof.
The device is preferably made of galvanized iron, tin, copper or zinc, but it may be made of any other light sheet metal.
In Figure 3 is shown the. i111 proved device applied to the bottom edge oil a roof formed from the double layer of old shingles 12 and 13 covered over with new composition or other shingles 14:. The upper member 6 or": the device is placed on the upper side of the new shingles 1 the web 8 covers the lower edges of the old shingles 12 and 13 well as of the new shingles id and the bottom memher 7 extends under the projecting edges of the old shingles. The crimped edge ll) of the upper member 6 presses into the composition shingles 1 52: especially whenv these shingles are made of asphalt composition.
In this condition the improved device prevents wind from getting under and between the old shingles and new roofing and raising the new shingles 14 which are pliable. The device also presents a smooth finished appearance to the bottom edge of the roof and it be painted any desired color.
In Figure 4 the device is shown as applied
