GLASS SHINGLE.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N o. 377,588, dated February 7, 1888.
Application tiled June 8. 1887. Serial No 240,581. (No model.)
To aZZ whom it may concern.'
Be it known that I, EDWARD WALsH, Jr., a citizen of the United States, residing at the city of St. Louis, State of Missouri, have made a certain new and useful Improvementin Glass Shingles, of-which the following is a fu1l,clear, and exact description.
My invention relates to improvements in glass shingles for roofing or other purposes, and has for its object to secure the shingles to the battens without the use of nails or pins, and at the same time insure a perfect bond.
On the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a plan of a series of glass shingles constructed and arranged according to niyinvention; Fig. l
2, a transverse section through two adjacent shingles on line 1 1 in Fig. 1; Fig. 3, a longitudinal section through an upper and lower shingle on line-2 2 in Fig. l; and Fig. 4 a similar view showing a modification of my invention, like letters of reference denoting like parts in all the figures.
In carrying out my invention each glass shingle a, which is preferably of a-trapezoidal shape, for the purpose hereinafter described, is formed on one side for its entire length with a lip or iiange, b, curving upward from the upper surface or back of the shingle a, and on the other side with a similar liange,which is turned over outward at its upper portion and thence t-angentially downward, so as to form a concave groove or channel, c, 'in the bed of theshingle a on that side.
The upperedge or head of the shingle a, for a suitable width between the iiange b and groove or channel c, is turned downward and forward beneath the shingle a', so as to form a broad dat hook or catch, d, which is at such a distance from t-he bed ofthe shinglea that the hook d will pass easily beneath the roof-hatten e, and the shingle a be therebysecurely held in place. Y
In forming the roof or other surface to be covered, the shingles a, being, respectively, hooked to the battens e, as described, are laid so that the lip or ange b oflone shingle a oc copies and is contined by the groove or channel c of the succeeding shingle a, and the lower edge or tail 7 or channel c of one shingle a laps over the upper edge or head and corresponding portion of the groove or channel@ or the succeeding shingle a, whereby a perfectlock to the shingles is obtained.
For insuring the close fitting of the laps formed by the head and tail, respectively, of two adjacent shingles, the head of each shingle a is preferably wider than the tail, while the groove cof each shingle ais smaller at the head than at the tail, by which means the bed of one shingle a at the tail, with a corresponding portion of the groove c', will lie closelyy on the back of the succeeding shindle a at its head, and on the corresponding portion of its groove c, to the extent of the lap.
I claim as my invention- In a glass shingle, the combination of the hook or catch d, formed at the head of shingle a, and turned downward and forward beneath the shingle Aa, as described, lip or ange b, and groove or channel c, substantially as shown, and for the purpose described.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature,in presence of two witnesses, thist-h dayof June,
, EDWARD WALSH, Jn.
