HERBERT A. STREETER, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
HOLLOW-TILE WALL Fon BUILDINGS.`
SPECIFICATION forming' part of Letters Patent No. 790,009, dated May 16, 1905.
` v Application filed November l0, 1903. Serial No. 180,558.
T ZZZ whom it may concern,.-
lof the hollow tile are comparatively thin and afford little area for the cement or mortar joints between adjacent or superimposed tile.
The object of my invention is to provide a hollow-tile wall for interior partitions or outside walls of a-simple, strong, and efficient construction withoutmaterially adding to the cost or weight of the wall.
My invention consists in the means I employ to accomplish this object or result-that is to say, it consists in a hollow-tile wall comprising', in combination, a plurality of hollow tile laid in courses and superimposed upon one another and breaking joints in the usual manner, of a series of metal clips interposed between the thin webs of the tile at the joints "thereof, and having a plurality of anges turned in opposite directions and fitting on each side of the upright webs of the superimposed and adjacent tile.
My invention also consists in the novel con- 'struction of parts and devices and in the novel combination of parts and devices herein shown or described.
In the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, Figure l is a plan view, and Fig. 2 a side elevation, of aportion of a hollow-tile wall embodying my invention. tions on lines 3 3, 4t 4, and 5 5, respectively, of Fig. 1 .and showing also portions of superimposed tile; and Figs. 6, 7, and 8 are detail perspectiveviews showing different forms-of the metal clips as used in different positions in the tile wall.
In the drawings, A represents a hollow-tile wall, the same being composed of horizontal Figs. 3, 4, and 5 are vertical sec-l courses A of hollow tile B having thin upright webs Z Z', the tile B of one course breaking joints in the usual manner with the tile B of the coursesabove and below the same. As the upright webs Z of the tile are comparatively thin, ordinarily not .exceeding threequarters of an inch in thickness, it will be understood that the bonding area of mortar or cement C at the joints between the superimposed tile is very limited in extent and that on this account the wall, whether used for a partition-wall or for an outside wall, is necessarily comparatively fragile or weak against transverse or lateral pressure, and this has heretofore materially restricted the extent of use of hollow-tile walls.
To give strength and `firmness to the wall against lateral strain or pressure, I interpose between the tile metal clips D at the horizontal joints between superimposed tile and the vertical joints between adjacent tile; said metal clips having two pairs of upright wings'or flanges Z Z and Z Z to embrace the upright webs of two adjacent tile in the same course anda pair of oppositely-turned upright flanges (Z2 Z2 to embracethe vertical web of the tile in the Ynext lower or upper course of tile. These metal clips are preferably made of thin sheet-steel, and their body portions lie fiat upon or between the upright webs of the superimposed tile at the horizontal joints thereof, and thus do not interfere with the layingV of the tile in the usual manner, while at the same time firmly bonding and securing the superimposed and adjacent tile together. Where the bonding-clips are used at the middle portions of superimposed tile, I provide the same with only two pairs of wings or flanges, one pair, Z Z,turned up and the other pair, Z2 Z2, turned down. Where themetal clips are used at the upright joints between adjacent tile, the same may be provided with a right-angle extension D to [it in the horizontal joint between the cross-webs Z b of the adjacent tile and with oppositelyturned pairs of wings or lianges Z3 Z 3 and OZi Zi to embrace the vertical cross-webs o b of the upper and lowertile, the anges Z3 Z 3 and OZA Z4 thus standing in planes at right angles to the planes of the lianges Z Z and IOO d d'. The metal clips D are embedded in the mortar or cement C between the joints, and thus serve to strongly, rigidly, and [irmly unite all of the tile together.
I hereby disclaim as not of my invention the construction shown in the Gustat' Leitch Patent No. 528,359 and in Patent No. 637,906 to Venezia.
I claim- 1. A hollow-tile wall comprising in combination, hollow tile B having upright longitudinal Webs and cross-webs b laid in horizontal courses breaking joints with each other, and interposed metal clips D in the horizontal joints of the tile, having two pairs of fianges embracing the webs of adjacent tile in the same course, and a pair of oppositely-turned flanges embracing the web of a tile in the neXt course, and thus bonding together, three tile, the cross-webs Z2 t of said adjacent tile extending between the edges of the two inner flanges which fit against the inside of the longitudinal webs of adjacent tile, substantially as speeilied.
2. A hollow-tile wall comprising in combination, hollowtile laid in courses breaking joints with each other and having cross and longitudinal webs, and clips interposed between the tile in the joints thereof and having oppositely-turned flanges to iit and enibrace the meeting webs of the tile, the cross webs of adjacent tile extending between the two inner iianges which it on the inside of the longitudinal webs of adjacent tile, substantially as specified.
3. A tile wall comprising in combination, tile laid in horizontal courses breaking joints with each other, and a metal clip having two pairs of right-angle iianges embracing the webs of adjacent tile and an oppositely-turned ange engaging the web of a tile in thc next course and provided with a right-angle extension fitting between the cross-webs oi adjacent tile and furnished with two pairs oi oppositely-turned iianges to embrace the crossweis of adjacent tile, substantially as speciiie HERBERT A. STREETER.
