METALLIC MOLDING.
SPECIFICATION forming part'of Letters Patent No. 650,125, dated May 22, 1900.
Application filed March 23, 1900- Serial No. 9,932- (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we; JOHN K. DAVIES, residing at Elm Grove, and EDWIN C. EWING, residing at Leatherwood, in the county of Ohio and State of West Virginia, citizens of the United States, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Metallic Moldin gs, of which the following is a specification.
Our invention particularly relates to metallic moldings used for interior decoration in connection with metallic finishing-plates; but our improvements are applicable to me-' tallic moldings used for exterior decoration.
The object of our invention is to provide an improved form of that part of the molding known as the dentil and to construct it in an improved way, In architectural structures, such as cornices and moldings, dentils are used in the lower part or bed of the molding or cornice beneath the corona, and this part of the molding usually consists of a series of rectangular blocks or cubes arranged in a horizontal line side by side at regular distances apart. Usually the blocks or cubes are formed separately and secured to a backing. Such dentils have also been formed of plaster by molding several of them in one piece; but so far as we are aware metal dentils have always been formed separately. According to our invention we form a series of dentils from a single piece of sheet metal, first forming a blank with projections on one of its edges of proper size and so located that the blank may be bent intoshape along certain lines to form the dentils and to close them at their lower ends.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a plan view of a blank from which the dentils may be formed. Fig. 2 is a view, on an enlarged scale, of a portion of the blank shown in Fig. 1 and indicating by dotted lines the lines on which the blank is bent. Fig. 3 is a View in" perspective showing the blank partially bent. Fig. 4. is a perspective View showing the lower ends of the dentils partially closed. Fig. 5 is a perspective view of a portion of the blank completely bent. Of course the blanks are usually bent at one operation of dies; but Figs. 3, 4, and 5 serve to illustrate the manner in which the bending is done. Fig. 6 is a front elevation of a portion of a cornice, showing the manner of applying the dentils by means of nails or such secur ing devices. Fig.7 is a perspective View showing the manner in which the dentils may be soldered to other parts of the molding.
-Fig. 8 is a plan View of a modification in which the dentils are alternately long and short. Fig. 9 is a plan view of the blank for forming the dentils shown in Fig. 8, the lines on which the blank is bent being shown by dotted lines. Figs. 10, 12, and 14: areplan views of other forms of blanks, and Figs. 11, 13, and 15 are perspective views of dentils formed from the blanks shown in Figs. 10, 12,
and 14. b
The blank shown 1 Fig. l,may.be of indefinite length. One longitudinal edge is smooth and unbroken, while the other longitudinal edge is formed with a series of relatively-long projectionsa and an intermediate seriesof relatively short projections 12. Between the projections a and b there are spaces 0. A series of dentils are formed from this blank by bending the metal on the lines a: w, y y, z z, and w w. The lines wform continuations of the opposite edges of the projections a. The lines y form continuations of the opposite edges of the projections 12. The lines 2 are coincident with the inner ends of the projections a. andb, while the lines 10 are coincident, or nearly so, with the outer edges of the projections 17. That portion of the blank between the lines y 1 is intended to always lie flat against the cornice or backing to which the dentils are secured. That portion between the lines x w is intended to constitute the outer faces of the dentils, while that portion between the lines 00 and y is intended to be perpendicular to the surfaces between the lines y y and 00 00. When the blank is thus bent on the lines as a: and y y, it will be given the form shown in Fig.- 3. By then partially bending the blank on the lines 2 z and w w the blank will be given the form shown in Fig. I. By further bending the blank on the lines 2' z and w w the series of dentils will be completely formed, as shown in Fig. 5. Of coursethe blanks are usually We claim as our inventiori- I bent atone operation of suitable dies; buta 11' A series of dentils formed from,,=a-blank Figs. 3, 4,and 5 indicate the manner in which" "of sheet metal, having a series of projections the dies bend the blanks. extending frornone longitudinal edge of the 70 5 It will be observed that the series of dentils blank, and a series of shorter projections arshown in Fig. 5 have their upper ends in line ranged between the first-mentioned series and :es ;h thn l' l elow nds l e 1 91-1 .ext ndingefrom the .sial efollgib ld fid ledgfl,; low;,-dentils;arecl0sed; and; below-thedenti said: blank;bei-n gben-t: to form parallelyhol-low there isa continuous flange F, adaptedtoicon Q;projectionsgor-dentilsarranged transversely 75 1o nect with other parts of the cornice.
