STEPHEN B. MoRss, or RAHWAY, NEW JERsEY.
COMBINED CURB AND GUTTER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 691,794, dated `January 28, 1902. Application filed March 24:, 1900. ASerial No. 9,991. (No model.) i
To ctZZ whoml tm/ay concern/.- y
Be it known that '1, STEPHEN B. Monss, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at Rahway,Union county, State of NewJersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in a Combined Curb and Grutter,l of which the following is a specilication.
My invention relates to an improved curb and gutter made of metal, adapted to have a portion of the sidewalk or pathway superimposed upon one part and set in the earth, so
asto produce a vertically-disposed curb and a horizontally-disposed gutter or gutter-pavement support; and in carrying out my invention I provide vertically-disposed longitudinally-extending plates, each provided with an outwardly or horizontally extending web,
the plates being preferably.substantiallyfl shaped and having 'portions oftheir vertical walls placed side by side and secured together in such manner that the webs' of the contiguous plates will project in opposite directions, on-e web being above the other. By this means the web of one plate serves as a gutter or gutter-pavement support, while'the web of the other plate projects toward'the sidewalk to receive upon it pathway-earth or a paving-stone or other material.
Reference is to be had tothe accompanying drawings, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the views, and wherein` Figure l is a perspective view illustrating my improvement applied in connection ywith a pathway having earth upon one of thewebs of the curb, and Fig. 2 is a substantially similar viewshowing the upper web having a paving-block upon it.
In the accompanying drawings theletters A B indicate plates or beams disposed longi' tudinally of a roadway placed on edge and provided with an 4outwardlyextendingv web a b, respectively. The parts A aand B bare preferably each made of metal rolled to the meeting walls abut, and are secured together by bolts, rivets, or the like c. By preference the distance from the webs a b to the lower and upper edges of the plates A B, respectively, is such that the corresponding portions of said plates will interlock with or engage the web of the adjacent plate, whereby p the web a will rest upon the'upper edge of plate B and the lower edgeof plate A will rest upon the web b. By this means the plates are firmly secured together in a verti-y cal direction and are made strong to resist shocks and strains that may come upon the parts. It will be seen that the web a isthus located above the longitudinal axisof the con- "gutter pavement or covering, and the blocks or other pavement ot rthe roadway can abut against the outer longitudinal edge of web b,
or if asphalt or other corresponding pavement is used'the same may, Vif desired, be spread over the web l).- The web a, projects toward the pathway, and in the formI shown in Fig. l the earth D of the pathway may rest upon the web a, and thus fill 'the space between said web and the upper portion of plate (See Fig. l.) In Fig. 2 the pavement or blocks E rest upon the web a and are shown in contact, with the upper portion of plate A, whereby said blocks are supported at one portion. It will be seen also that the earth at theside of Pthe pathway is located in the space between web ct and plate B and that the earth is in the space between the web or glitter l) and the lower portion of plate B. By the arrangement shown the combined curb and gutter is maintained in a proper position by the adjacent earth, and the web a resists leverage tending to move the curb toward or away from the pathway, while the web or gutter "b resists the tendency et' the curb, and thereby the combined curb and gutter is l evenly balanced and is retained in an upright lnot be liable to tilt in a vertical direction.
Havingnow described myinvention, what I claim is- IOO pair of plates secured together and adapted side an outwardly-extending web to form a seine/1 serving with the web to form a seat for the abutting edge of a pavement, substantially 1u as described.

gutter or Support for a gutter, and the other plate having 0n the opposite side below the upper edge an outwardly-extending web, the portion of the plate extending above its Web Witnesses:
