THOMAS WALTON, OF WHEELING, WEST VIRGINIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN FACINGS-FOR WALLS OF HOUSES.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 188,447, dated' March 13, 1877; application filed v January 31, 1877.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, THoMAs WALTON, of Wheeling, in the county of Ohio and State of West Virginia, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Facing for Building Walls, Floors, Snc.; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same.
rI he outer walls of buildings have been covered with cement, and faced with plates held in place by means of dovetail or T- shaped ribs, which entered the cement.
My invention relates to a facing-plateadapted for application to buildings having brick or stone walls; and to this end I provide said plate with flanges or projections whose sides are at right angles tol/the body of the plate, and thus adapted to enter the spaces between the bricks or stones;l as hereinafter described.
In the accompanying drawing, forming part of this specication, Figure l is a perspective view of the plate. Fig. 2 is an end view of the plate and a brick, to the face of which it is applied. Y
The dotted lilies indicate the superposed plate and brick.
The plate A is rectangular in form, and provided with rabbets b and b on its respective upper and lower edges. When a Wall is faced with plates A, the rabbeted edges form lap-joints, as shown in Fig. 1.
I prefer t0 construct the plate of glass, earthen ware, or porcelain; but I do not restrict myself in respect to material.
When made of glass, any suitable ornaposition of a mental or artistic de ign may be applied to the back thereof; bu when made of porce lain, a design may be pplied to the face of the plate, and rendere permanent by the usual process of burning. The face side of the plate may, however, be corrugated or provided With any other ornamental configuration which taste or fancy may dictate.
The plate will usually be made of the same dimensions supercially a's the exposed side ofthe bricks or stones` composing the wall to which it is to be applied. The means of attaching itto the wall consist of projections or lugs a, which are cast or formedv in one piece Withthebodythereof. Theseprojections stand parallel at right angles to the side of the plate,
so thatthey will enter the spaces between the When the plate is used to form an orna-` mental facing tor the inner walls of buildings, A
it will be applied directly to the bare surface of the wall, thustakiug the place of the ordinary Wainscot or lath-and plaster covering.
As above intimated, I do not claim, broadly, the use of a facing-plate provided with dorsal ribs; but
I claim- As an article of manufacture, the improved facing-plate for brick or stone walls, the saine having rabbets b b and lugs or flanges a, whose sides are parallel to the body thereof, to adapt them to enter the spaces between the bricks or stones, as shown and described.
The above specification of my invention signed by me this 30th day of J anuary, A. D. 1877.
THOS. WALTON.
