JOHNT E. CARROLL, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIGNOR TO 'llIE CORTRIGIIT METAL ROOFING COMPANY, OF SAME PLACE.
GABLEDEND FlNlSl-l FOR ROOFING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 397,534, dated February 12, 1889. Application filed December 22, 1888. Serial No. 294,880. (No model.)
To all whom it may col/.ceras Be it known thatI, J OHN E. CARROLL, of the city and county of Philadelphia, State of Pennsylvania, have invented a new and useful Improved Gable-End F inish for Roofing, of which the following is a true and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specifcztn tion.
My invention relates to the device known among rocfers as gable-end finish, suehdevices being secured on the ends of gables or other analogous parts of a roof, and serving at the saine time to prevent the entrance of water on the under side of the roofing-plates and to give an ornamental finish.
The object otl my invention is to provide a device of this kind peculiarly though not ex clusivel y adapted for use with what are known as metallic shingles or roofing-plates, and which will provide improved facilities for conducting away any water which may penetrate to the end of the roofing1.)lates, be easily attached to the edge et' the gable, and et' an ornainental and sightly character.
)Iy invention will be best understood by reference to the drawings, in which it is illustrated; and it consists of the peeuliarly-formed metallic plate hereinafter d eseribed, and specifically referred lo in the claims.
Reference being now had to the drawings which illustrate my invention, Figure l is a perspective view of' the roof' of a house having gables; and Figs. 2, 2l, 4, and 5, perspectiveviewsof differentmodifications of iuyiniproved gable-end finish.
A indicates the roof of a house g ll, the gable* end finish, made up, as shown, of a plate of sheet metal bent so as to have a flange, E, adapted to extend over the ends of the shingles or plates, a dei'ircssed guti er, I), :ulapted to extend,beneath the ends of the shingles or plates, and a flange, C, by which it secured to the edge of the gable. Preferably, I bend the end of `the fiange E inward, as shown at F, so as to form a rounffled end, which facilitates the eut rance of the roofing-plate beneath the flange E, and also forms a tighter joint between said Vflange and the shingle than would be the case were the end of the flange E perfectly plain and straight. To insure tightness in thejoint between the shingles and the :fiange E, a ridge, C', may be formed in the flange C, so as to extend parallel to and in front of the edge ci' flange This ridge of course forms a tighter joint on the under side of the roofing plates or shingles than would be the case if they rested on the plain lian ge.
As shown in Figs. 2, 3, and 5, the nailingflange C extends parallel with the upper flange, Il, and the device is nailed on the top of the gable edge, as shown at B in Fig. l. It is seinetimes desirable, however, to nail the device on t-he outer edge of the gable, in which case the nailingliange should be bent downward at right angles to the flange E, as shown in Fig. l. As is clearly iiulicated in the figures, the depressed glitter does not require that the metal should be bent in any partieulrfni way, so long as it forms a gutter, D. Any desired ornamental form may be given to this part of the plate.
lVhere, as in liigs. 2, 3, and 5, the nailingfiange lies parallel with the upper flange, E, the gal ile-end nish l illust be secured in place, as shown in Fig. l, before the roofing plates or shingles are inserted in it, as they extend over the nailing-flange. lVhere, howover, the nailing-flange is bent downward, as in Fig. l, it is not al'isolutely necessary that the gable-end finish should be secured to the roof before the roofing-plates are inserted in it, as the device may be pushed upward on. the edges of the shingles or plates until'ii-s flange rests against the edge of the gable, and then secured to said edge by nailiiiig.
Having now described my invention, what I claiin as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
l. Asa gable-end finish for roofing, a sheetmetal plate bent so as to have a flange, E, adaptml to extend over the edge ot' the roofing-plates, a gutter, l), arranged to extend be,
low the ends ol' said roofiugeplates, and a nailing-liange, (l, b vwhich it is secured to the edge el' the gable, all substantially as shown and described.
2. Asa gable-end finish .for roofing, a sheetinetal plate bent so as to have a flange, E, adapted to extend over the edge of the root'- IOO ing-plates and having a turned-in edge, a gutter, D, arranged to extend below the ends of said 'roeng-plates, and a nailing-flan ge, C, by which it is secured t0 the edge of the gable, all substantially as shown and described.
3. As a gable-end nish for roofing, a sheetnletal plate bent so as to have a flange, E, adapted to extend over the edge ef the reefing-plates,a gutter, D,arranged to extend below the ends of said recng-plates, an d a nailing-ange, C, with `rib C lformed on it, by which it is secured te the edge 0f the gable, all substantially as shown vand described.
4. As a gable-end nsh for roofing, a sheetmetal plate bent s0 as to have a flange, E, adapted to extend over the edge of the roofing-plates and having a turned-n edge, a gutter, D, arranged t0 extend below the ends of said roofing-plates, and a llailng-ange, C, with rib C formed on it, by which it is secured to the edge 0f the gable, all substantially as shown and described.
