*6 Claims. (01. 139-585) V My invention relates to wall tileattachment and more particularly to theprovision ofmeans whereby metal tile cancbe properly provided with corners to; make a .smoothrounded corner forthelvertical corners of a room in which the tileisused.v a
It is: the principal purpose of this invention to provide an improved metal tile corner construction by means-of whichthe corners may be closed by specialcornertiling that makes a smooth joint. with the usual walltile.
.lwwillpdescribe the preferredlform of my in vention by reference to the accompanying drawings wherein-w y -Fig. l is aperspective showing a protruding proved cornertilenof this invention; Fig; 2 is asimilar View illustrating the; inter nalcorner construction; 3 l Fig, 3 is asection substantially on the line 3-.-3 of'Fig. l 5

[The "corner tile inthe present invention can readily be appued n conjunction with the wall tile to make asmooth-fitting tile wall leaving no .exposedsharp corners. I y i Referringn to Figs. ,,1 andQZ, the backwall -10 has what '1 term aclip board llfsecured thereto "i any Suitable manner as by .na'iling and this clipboard carriesrowsgot clipsl l z which; clips are adapted to engage the fiangesjlii and leasablyholdthe me in place."

Now in connection with the top or cap tile, this tile is preferably turned in. s

.Thebottom' corner tile 22, the intermediate tile 23, and thetopftile 24 are the three shapes necessary for this construction. In addition an extramounting strip or clip. must be pro'yided for the corner;

The mounting strip 25 may from thefloor :ut tanear t tap o heme til r b x small v bro ken sections if desired. Preferably, however, it is made of a single strip running the V The corner tile itself has thehowed portion curved to" substantially .a quadrant of a circle and then has thetf langes N27 and 28 atthe side edges turned inwardly toward each other at an angle of 190 degrefi i, and these side flanges engage the flanges 29 and '30 of the mounting 813 119 25. The bottom ofthe base corner piece 22 is' spread out as indicated at3l and 32 so as to have substantially the same curvature as the portion 16 of the adjacentbasewal-l tile. 'Ihus a wall boards 11.
smooth corner is effected at the base. The top of the base tile 22 has a smaller flange 33 turned in upon which the tile 23 may rest. This flange 33 must necessarily be of less depth than the side flanges 2'7 and 28 in order to pass over the corner to be covered, and also the ends at 34 and 35 must terminate short or the flanges 2'7 and 23 preferably just such a distance as to receive the flanges 29 and 39 upon the mounting strip.
Any necessary number or" intermediate tile 23 can be provided depending upon the height of the wall tile and the length of the intermediate corner tile elements.
The corner tile are assembled by sliding them over the retaining flanges on the mounting strip. v
Now with respect to the internal corners such as shown in 2 and 4 and 7 to 9,.the curve in the corner tile must nowbe inward as illustrated at 38 on Fig. 4. The mounting strip 39 fits tightly in the corner between the wall boards 11 and is nailed thereto in a suitable manner.
Like corner strip 25, this strip may also be 6.1--
vided into sections but preferably it is made in one piece for the height of the tile wall. With this corner piece, however, the edges 40 and 41 instead of being bent at right angles are merely raised to provide a slot between them and the The corner tile are then pro vided with the shoulders at 42 and 43 for abutting the side edges of the adjacent wall tile and,
are again turned to form the flanges 44 and 45 which slide beneath the raised portions 40 and 41 to anchor the corner tile in place.
The bottom tile 46, as shown most clearly by Figs. 2, 4, and 8, has the side edges 42. and 43 running right down to the tipoi the outwardly bent portion 47 but the flanges 44 and 45 terminate at the top of the outwardly bent portion 47 as otherwise they could not slide behind the strip for interlocking purposes.
The intermediate tile and the top portion of the bottom tile 46 are preferably flanged in the same manner at the ends as are the external corner tile as indicated at 33 leaving merely enough space between the securing flanges 44 and 45 on the end flange for the edges 40 and 41.
The cap corner tile 'foran internal corner is shown in perspective at 48' in Fig. '7, and the external appearance is illustrated more clearly in Fig. 2. The side flanges .44 and 45 are again terminated short ofthe cap portions 49, but
Thus it will be seen that these tile can be applied in substantially the same manner as a smooth unbroken joint with suitable bearing surfaces provided to abut against the flanges of the adjacent wall tile and with no sharp edges left exposed to become chipped or broken. 7
From the above description, it is believed that the construction and advantages of this device will be clear to those skilled in this art.
Having thus described one form of my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
