METAL ROOFING.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 468,015, dated February 2, 1892.
Application led April 17, 1890. Serial No. 348.421. (No model.)
To @ZZ 'il/hom, it may concer/z:
Be itknown that we,WILLIAM L. HEBEELING- and HENRY HEBERLING, citizens of the United States, residing at Havana, in the county of Mason and State of' Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Metal Roofing; and we do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to let-ters or figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.
Our invention relates to metal roofing, particularly to a standing-seam roofing in which one edge of each sheet is anged up and folded once, and only once, over the flanged edge of an adjoining sheet to complete the seam.
The object ot' our invention is to provide a root' of this kind which, with proper tools, can be formed much more easily, rapidly, and cheaply than any other now known.
IVe accomplish our object in a very simple way, which will be better understood by reference to the accompanying drawings, in which like parts have like signs.
Figure 1 is a section of our roofing with seams in different stages of completion. Fig. 2 shows our anchor as applied to the roof. Fig. 3 shows a reverse view of the finished seam 7. Fig. 4 shows a modified form of' our roofing.
, at 6, Fig. l; and the flange a, with its cleats c, is then folded over the flange b and brought down tightly fo complete the seam, as at 7', Fig. i.
In the reverse view of the finished seam 7 (shown in Fig. 3) it will be seen that the overlapping ends of the cleats c are closed down snugly against the side of the seam. We accomplish this by folding the top of the flange over with a tool which clamps and holds the ends ot' the cleats firmly against the seam during the operation. It desired, the flange b may be made high enough to have a narrow portion of its top folded over with the flange a, which requires no extra labor and but little more material, as in Fig. 4.
The advantages of the method wehavehere described are its great rapidity and economy, combined with perfect efficiency.
IVhat we claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
l. A root-anchor having a straight body, with a base at right angles to one side and an extension from its upper portion reaching down along its opposite side past its center, combined with a roofing-sheet having a perpendicularly-flanged edge embraced by said extensions down past its middle portion and folded but once over an adjoining flange t0 form a standing seam.
2. A standing seam consisting of one or more roof-anchors, combined with two roofing-sheets, one of which has a flanged edge embraced by said anchors and folded with them but once over the flanged edge ofthe other sheet, which rests on the base of the anchors, whose embracing ends extend from under the edge of the folded flange back over the crown of the seam.
3. In combination, in a standing seam, the flange a, cleats c, and flange b, the flange b resting on the cleats c, the cleats c and flange a being folded once over the flangeband the ends of the cleats extending from under the edge of the flanged back over the crown of the seam and partly down that side of it which is farthest from the base of the cleats, substantially as shown and described.
In testimony whereof we affix oursignatures in presence of two witnesses.
WILLIAM L. IIEBERLING. HENRY I-IEBERLING.
