7 Application filed December 11, 1900. b'erialllo. 39,533. \No model.)
,Be it known that I, GOTTFRIED AUGUST NE- BELING, a subject of the King of Prussia, Em-
' proved means for rendering grooved-tile roofing weatherproof. Not only is the roof thus edto fit into the groove of the tile.
peror of Germany, residing at Reinscheid, in the Kingdom of Prussia, German Empire,have invented-a. new and useful Improvement in Means for Rendering Grooved-Tile Roofs Weatherproof, of which the following is. a specification.
'The present invention relates to animmade absolutely proof against all atmospheric precipitations, but any individualtile may be readily removed and the process of weather'- proof tiling greatly facilitated.
The essential featureof the invention consists in the employment of a sheet of pasteboard, oiled paper, cloth, or the like as underlayer for each tile to'rest upon. One edge of such layer of waterproof material is connected to a lateral bent metal strip or ridge-piece oft-he shape of an inverted gutter and adapt- The opposite edge of the sheet is folded over the rib or ridgevof the tile;
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 shows a sheet of pasteboard or other material I; with metal strip 0 secured at one side. Fig. 2is a detail view drawn to a larger scale, showing a cross-section of the metal strip and the manner in which thesheet is secured toit.
Fig. 3 is a cross-section of a roofing-tile with waterproof layer in position below, portions of the adjacent tiles being shown at either side to illustrate the method of setting them together. Fig. 4: is a plan view of a portion of a tiled roof, drawn to a smaller scale, the
surface of the tiles, which may be of any design, being here shown fiat. Fig. 5 is a longitudinal section of the roof, taken on the line am of Fig. at. Fig. 6 is asectional detail view showing a manner in which the tiles may be firmly connected with the roofing-lath.
The size of the sheet b taken for each tile 60. must be such that at each end it projects somewhat beyond the metal strip a fastened to it, while in breadth it must be so much greater than the breadth of the tile itself that when themetal strip is laid in the groove gv the opposite edge of the sheet can be turned over the rib or ridge 9. In laying the tiles the groove 9 fits over t-herib f, Fig. 3, and the metal strip a of the adjacent tile thus covers the edge of the sheet turned over, as described, so that the latfter is securely heldby the metal strip, which possesses some degree of resilience. The end. bf the sheet project-- ing beyond the metal strip lies on the roofing-lath Z, Figs. 4 and 5, and can infront of the lug m of the tile be laid around the lath. The lower end of the sheet, on the other hand, forms the intermediate layer at the foot of the tile, between the latter and thehead of the adjacent tile of the vertical row, and is pushed in according to the precise construction of the tiles and the manner in whichthey here join. Thus both at the sides as also at top. and bottom of the tile a perfect joint is formed by means of the sheet, whereby rain and snow, even when accompanied by high wind, cannot penetrate the roof. The weatherproof character of the roof is also maintained even when the tiles are damaged, as through fractures or the like, since the sheet stops all moisture trickling through and allows it to run off. When it is required to lay a newt-ile, the damaged one can be readily removed and the new one set in its place, either in conjunction with the old or with a new sheet of waterproof material. Since the sheet is firmly grasped by the resilient metal strip on the one side and by being turned over on .the other side is at once held fast, being also stretched to a certain extent, tiling can go on rapidly and Without difficulty, the laths at the same time affording a safe foothold for the tiler.
In Fig. 6 I have shown a means by which the tiles can be firmly connected with the roofing-lath Z, which consists of a metallic clamp '1, such as tin or sheet-iron, which engages said tile and said lath, holding the same firmly and fitting unto the lateral groove 9 of. tho
tile, the opposite edge of said sheet Being I my invention I have signed my name in pres-,
turned over the ridge f at 'the other side of ence of two subscribing Witnesses. v the tile, in such manner that when the adja- Y cent tile is laid, the said edge of the sheet is MED AUGUS'I' AELELING' 5 securely held by the metal strip a of such tile, I Vitnesses:
substautiallyas described. OTTO KONIG, v
