SHINGLING Filed July 15, 1952 Mark C Smith.
INVENTOR HIS ATTORNEYS Patented Jan. 8
1 Claim.
proof, shingle; to ,provide new and relatively inexpensive means for attaching the shingles in place; and to provide a novel method of laying the shingles eflfectively to weatherproof the joints therebetween and to weatherproof the openings made in the shingles by penetration of the attaching elements therethrough.
Other objects will appear hereinafter.
The invention consists in the novel combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter described and claimed.
The invention will be best understood by reference to the accompanying drawing, showing the preferred form of construction and in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view, partly in section, illustrating a surface area overlaid with the new shingles;
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view on line 2-2 in Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary perspective sectional detail view:
Fig. 4 is a plan view of one of the new shingles;
Fig. 5 is a perspective view of one form of the new attaching element;
Fig. 6 is a perspective view of another form of the new attaching element; and
Fig. 7 is a perspective view of another form of the new attaching element.
In the drawing 10 indicates a roof deck providing a surface area over which the new shingles (shown in plan in Fig. 4) are laid. Each shingle 11 includes a substantially octagonal body 12 and a pair of portions 13 projecting laterally from corresponding opposite sides of said body.
The new method or plan of laying the new shingles 11 is shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 3 and in general is to lay the shingles tier upon tier, and to lay the lower half of the marginal edge 15 and the projecting portions 13 of the shingles in each tier 14 over the upper halves o1? the marginal edges 16 of two adjacent shingles in the next preceding lower tier 14, with the projecting portions 13 of adjacent shingles 11 in the same tier abutting each other at their meeting edges to form the joints 18; then inserting the piercing stem, such as 22, of an attaching element, such as 20, through each projecting portion 13 and shingle 11 therebelow into the surface or deck 10; then laying the segmental portions 17 of the shingles in the next succeeding higher tier over these Mark cfsiiiiui, that, Application July 15, 19%2i i-iai (Cl. 108-33) joints l8 and over the attaching elements 20 to weatherproof the same. The segmental portions 1'7 are then pressed down to force the clinching stems (24--28--32) of the attaching elements (20-25-29) therethroughwhereupon said clinching stems 24 are bent down upon the upper surface of the shingle portions 1'7 which thus weatherproof the apertures formed in the shingles and deck by the penetration of the attaching elements therethrough.
One of the new attaching elements 20 is shown in detail in Fig. I. Said element 20 is preferably made of metal and comprises a body 21 from one end of which is angled a corrugated piercing stem 3 22. Each attaching element 20 has a portion at one end of the body 21 angled back upon the body 21 to form a U 23; and said element 20 includes a bendable, piercing, clinching, stem 24 that projects at about a right angle from the U 23 and body 21 on the side of the latter opposite the stem 22.
In use the piercing element 22 is driven through one of the projecting portions 13 and through the marginal edge of the shingle ll therebelow into the deck 10 until the body 21 and U 23 of the attaching element 20 are flush with the said portion'13. The segmental portion 17 of a shingle 11 in the next succeeding higher tier is lapped over the joint 18 and pressed down causing the clinching stem 24 to penetrate through the segmental portion 17; whereupon the clinching stem 24 is bent down over the upper surface of the said portion 1'1 to clinch the segmental portion 17 of the upper shingle between the U 23 and the piercing stem 24. I
A modification ofthe new attaching element is indicated generally at 25 in Fig. 5, and comprises a body 26, similar to the body 21 of attaching element 20, and a piercing stem 27, similar to piercing stem 22, angled from the body 26 at one end thereof. Angled at about a rightangle away from thebody 26 at the other end thereof is a bendable, piercing, clinching stem 28, similar to stem 24.
Another modification of the new shingle-attaching element is indicated generally at 29 the clinching stems 2 4 and 28. However, in this clinching stem 32 a notch 33 is provided to facilitate bending the clinching stem. The attaching elements 25 and 29 are used in the manner hereinbefore described, for the use of attaching element 20.
The shingles 11 may be made of any suitable material that is penetrable for the passage therethrough of the clinching stem of the attaching elements, such as, for example, bituminous or fibrous compositions, or other substances.
While I have illustrated and described the preferred form of construction for carrying my invention into eflfect, this is capable of variation and modification, without departing from the spirit of the invention. I, therefore, do not wish to be limited to the precise details of construction set forth, but desire to avail myself or such variations and modifications as come within the scope of the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to protect by Letters Patent is:
A shingle fastener comprising a strand of wire bent to provide a nail portion arranged to be driven into a roof structure and a U-shaped part arranged to bear against the roof structure when the nail is driven home, and a clinch member formed integrally with the end of one oi! the legs of the -'U-shaped part, the clinch member being positioned between the bight of the U-shaped part and the nail portion, said clinch member being constructed to pierce a shingle element and'arranged to be bent to a position substantially paralleling the 1 U-shaped part for clamping the shingle element to said root structure.
