TILE CLIP Filed Deo. '7, 1933 Patented Dec. 31, 1935 UNITED ST A'rENr OFFICE 'Ihe invention relates to method of laying Mission clay tiling, and particularly to the means for anchoring the cap tiles.
Heretofore in laying Mission tiling it has been the practice to rst lay a course of the curved cl'ay tiles with the concaved sides upward, the tiles being spaced laterally from one another, and secured to the roof sheathing by means of driven fastenings through holes provided in the tiles for this purpose. Another course of tile, known as cap tiles, is then laid covering the adjacent edges of the adjacent tiles, and these have been secured in position by means of blocks secured to the roof between the rst mentioned tiles and extending high eno-ugh so that the cap tiles may be secured to the blocks by means of driven iastenings through the same holes as used in securing the rst layer of tiles in place.
The invention has for its object the provision of a new method of securing the cap tiles in position by means of U-shaped anchors secured to the sheathing, and having outwardly directed terminals on the ends of the arms of the U-shaped member that engages through other holes in the tile provided for this purpose, said holes being spaced slightly from one end of the tile, that is the.
upper end, and at a slight distance from the side edges of the tile. holds the cap tiles in place, but is an advantage because the expense of laying the roof is reduced and the cap tiles are better held in position than with the old method.
The invention will be described in detail hereinafter and will be found illustrative in the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a fragmentary plan view of a portion of a Mission clay tiled roof in which the invention is disclosed,
Figure 2 is a sectional detail on a plane indicated by the line 2-2 of Figure 1,
Figure 3 is a transverse fragmentary sectional View on a plane indicated by the line 3 3 of Figure l, and
VFigure 4 is a plan View of one of the anchors used for securing the cap tiles in place.
In the drawing similar reference characters are used to designate corresponding parts in all the views.
The roof sheathing is indicated at A in Figures l, 2, and 3, and the tiles are designated I6, and secured in place on the sheathing A by the method to be hereinafter described. The type of tile employed in this class of roof is what is known as Mission clay tiling, the tiles being transversely curved, and one layer is'iirst laid on the sheathing This method not only securely A, the tiles of the rst layer being designated IllEL and have the concaved side up, and are secured in position by means of driven fastenings II through an opening I2 adjacent to the upper edge of the tile and midway of its width. The tiles IIIab of the rst layer are spaced apart as shown at I3 in a horizontal direction, or in other words transversely of the pitch of the roof.
The cap tiles are designated Ib and are laid to cover the adjacent edges of contiguous tiles of the rst layer with the convex side uppermost.
The cap tiles Itb are held in position by means of substantially U-shaped anchors I4. The anchors I@ are preferably made of a reasonably heavy gage of steel wire, out into proper lengths, and each of the lengths of wire is bent intermediate of its ends to form a loop I5 to receive a driven fastening I6 to secure the anchor in place. The ends of the wire at each side of the loop I5 are extended at an angle to one another as shown at I'I and then bent as shown at I8 with the ends of the Wire slightly inclined toward one another as shown at I9. The terminals of the portions I9 extend outwardly at substantially right angles to the parts I9 as shown at 26 to engage in openings 2 I, said openings being adjacent to the upper edge of each tile and spaced at a slight distance from the .side edges of the tile. When the anchor is in position as clearly shown in Figure 3 it is interposed between the tiles Illa of the first layer and the tiles Ib, the cap tiles.
In the drawing the opening I2 for the driven fastenings II is shown in the cap tile, and the openings 2| for the ends 2! of the anchor are shown in the bottom layer of tiles. Itwill be apparent that the opening I2 may be omitted from each of the cap tiles, and in fact said openings I2 may be omitted from all of the tiles and the openings 2l used with the anchors I4 for the first layer if preferred.
What is claimed isz- In a roof covering, in combination with rooi sheathing, concave tiles laid on said sheathing with their concave sides uppermost in substantially parallel relationship and spaced from one another, other concave tiles bridging the spaces between the first mentioned tiles and having their concave sides down, the edges of the last mentioned tiles overlapping the edges of the rst mentioned tiles, the last mentioned tiles having openings in opposite sides thereof, U-shaped clips having their extremities engaging in said openings and engaging between the overlapping edges of the tiles, and means securing said clips to the sheathing.
