JPATEFNTAQFFICIE EMIIJ O. IEHLINE, OF ALAMEDALCALIFORNIA, ASSIGNOR, BY DIRECT AND MESNE ASSIGNMENTS, TO VICTOR V. KUNKEL, OF OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA manure 'rILI-z Application filed October 10, 1920. Serial No. 811,508.
It is the princlpal object of the present invention to provide improved'tile of the char- 5 acter described which may be inexpensively manufactured of metal, finished in anydesired color and installed on a cementitious.
or other base.
Incarrying out this object I form atile of m sheet metal and lacquer its exposed surfaces.
in any preferred color. The tile is fitted with greens for maintaining it on any suitable ase.
One form which the invention may assume 5 is exemplified in the following description and illustrated by way of example in the accompanyingdrawings in which:
Flg. 1 is a perspective view of the rear side of a tile embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the .pad which is inserted within the rear of the tile disclosed in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view taken through a base with the tiling shown in Figs. 1 and u 2 mounted thereon. V
' Fig. 4. is a fragmentary view in perspective of the surface of a wall covered with tile will be formed as indicated by the'numeral such as disclosed in Figs. 1 and 2.
Fig. 5v is a perspective view disclosing the rear side of another, type of tile formed in Y and 6 is for use. upon a cementitious' base.
accordance with my present invention.
Fig. 6 is a central section through a tile .suchas disclosed in Fig. 5 mounted upon a cementitious base.
. Referring more particularly to the accompanying drawings, 10 indicates a tile embodying my invention. This tile is'formed of sheet metal and it is here shown as rectangular inshape. However, the tile may a be of any preferred geometrical outline without de artingfrom the present invention.
To orln the tile a fiat sheet of metal is utilized and is cut to the proper dimensions.
The peripheral edges of the metal are then 46 bent at right angles to the body portion thereof as illustrated, givin the tile an appearance of substantial thic ness and at the same time finishing the edges. .The turned over edges 11 of the tile also stiffen it so that it will be rigid.
In the present application I disclose two methods of mounting the tile on.a plane surface. In one of these methods, which is illustrated in Figs. 1 to? inclusive, barbed tangs 12 are formed integral with the sheet of metal forming the tile and project rear- I wardly from the edges of the tile at spaced distances apart. These fastening elements or tangs 12 may be driven into a surface of proper material to properly mount the tile.
In connection with the type of tile shown in Figs. 1 to 3 inclusive I employ a pad 14 of fibrous material having sound deadening and fireproofing qualities. This pad is of dimensions to be snugly received at the irear face of the tile within the turned edges of the same. The thickness of the pad His slightly greater than the depth of the tile so that it will project slightly from the rear thereof. Thus, when the tiling is assembled at a sli ht distance apart, a key for the cement fi lling between the edges of the tile 15 inFig.3. Y n
.The type of tile 10 disclosed in Figs. 5
This type of tile is formed with tangs 16 which are bent over parallel to the surface .of the tile to secure wire netting or other keyin means 17' in place atthe rear of the tile. prefer to use a plurality of layers of netting or other keying material so that a good bond will be established between the tile cement which is keyed in as described. The provision of the pad 14 assists in rendering a wall covered by the tiling sound-proof.
When usingthe tile shown. in Flgs. 5 and 6, acementitious base is provided and the tiling is mounted thereon whenthe cement is in a plastic'condition. The cement fills the interior of the tile between the interstices of the keying material and firmly holds the tile in position.
The exposed surfaces of tile here disclosed are properly lacquered in any desired color. This finish is very durable and likewise enables the tile to be produced in any desired color to harmonize with the room in which it is to be used.
It is obvious that the tile here disclosed is inexpensive to manufacture and install.
While I have shown the preferred form of my invention, it is to be understood that. various changes may be made in its construction by those skilled in the artwithout departing from the spirit of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
1. As an article of manufacture, a tile formed of metallic material and having foraminate means at its rear surface for securing it to a base, said means consisting of a separate layer of foraminous material attached to theback of the tile and being wholly exposed to be impressed in the base while this is in a plastic state.
2. As an article of manufacture, a tile itudinal elements forming areticulated ayer adapted to be wholly embedded in a plastic base to which the unit is to be applied.
4. A, tile unit consisting of a front metal panel body having rearwardly extending marginal portions, and an affixed, interlocking media including exposed transverse and longitudinal elements forming a reticulated layer adapted to be wholly embedded in a plastic base to which the unit is to be a lied;
said portions having prongs which a x said vided along their rear edges.

media in place as a part of the unit in readr- .ness to be applied.
5. A sheet metaltile element rovided with means for interlockin it in a p astic bed and comprising rearwar ly turned peripheral flanges which have tangs which are bent over substantially parallel to the rear surface of
