To all, w/ m'nt it nifty flo/'teema- Beit y ownthat l, JEROME M. -JoLnMA-N, a citizen of the Ti/Tnited States, residing at Warren, in the eountyef lVa-rren and Stat-e of Pennsylvania, have invented new and useful Improvements in @orner-Beads, ot which the following is a sneciiication.

'llliis invention 'relates to what I shall 'for convenience term a corner-bead, intendinyiy this designation to include not only bead itself, which I shall hereinafter refer to as such, but clip to he associated with th h/ead and to 'which lathing or equivalent' moans fastened. Thereare ordinarily several clips used inconjnnction With'a bead;

but whether there be one or more they are so 'constructed that when assembled in 'operative helation with the bead and when fastened to latiiing or the like suoli bead Will be held 'perfectly uprigl'it in a rigid manner, thereby to insilre stability-ii point of the utmost iin- In 'the drawings aooompai'iying and form- 'ing apart of this speciiieation I show a sini- 'pl'eforn'i of. embodiment of the invention, 'which to enaliile those skilled in the art to practice said invention I will set forth in detail in the following description, whilethe novelty oi the invent-ion will be included in the claims succeeding said description. y

Referring to said drawings, vFigure 1- is a top plan view of a corner-bead and clip oonnetted together, each involving the invention y"and showing a manner of using the aa e. Fig'. 2 is a detail view in perspective of `a portion of the bead, and Fig. 3 is a like View of the clip.

rihe bead shown in the drawings is d'esignated in a general Way by 2. This bead in practice is adapted to be located at the angle of Wall and to entend suoli distante from Y auch anglo that the plaster will Vcover the liead to its outer edge.

steelbeingprefei'ably employed for the purpose, by reason of which tne bead can be readily made integral. The bead 2 is so shapedas to present along its outer side longitudinally thereof a channel, as 3, and ianges, as 4, diverging from said channel, thefflanges preferably having perfor-ations 5 rinly in place, the plaster filling these perforations. The 'flanges 4 have along their outer edges inturne-d auxiliary flanges, as 6, disposed in thepresent case at acute angles with respeotto the main llanges 4. In this 6:1 of any desirable number to anchor the bead p Way lI produce a bead which is substantially tubular 'in torni and which will be very much stiffer than one Where the ianges 6 are eX- tended'outirard. In addition to this I provide by such relation of the respective iianges -4 and 6 a triangular way, in which may be fitted for sliding movement the ,triangular head 7 of a clip, (designated in a general way by 8.) There may be several of these clips S, connected with the head2, although `I have illustrated only one of them in the drawings. By. reason of this sliding relation thel clip can be easily adjustedl longitudinally of the bead. From the'triangularhead 7 of the clip there extend divergent arms, as 9. The clip is made 'from a strip-of resilient material, so thatv I can readily bend'the arms 9 at different angles to eachother and to adapt them to the position ofthe lathing. p

It will be understoodf; that theauiliary ianges 6 are separatedffroin each other, and

through the space between the saine the arms 9 oi the clip extend in ya i'ree manner, so that the adjustment to which I have referred can be readily secured. The shape of the head 7 agrees 4substantially with that of the triangular space ol the head bounded bythe flanges L and 6. As the strip Iis resilient, it is a ready matter to adjust the same, this being accomplished by moving the arms 9 toward each other, so as to i'ree thenornially' solid relation o'lthe head 7 with the iianges 4 and 6. When the arms are released, they move away i'roineaoh other, so as to press the head 7 in solid engagement 'with the flanges L and 6, and thereby prevent the clip from accidentally moving. i By form adjusted it will be held in solid relation with the bead at several places, or, in other Words,'

6 serving as a mouth for the passage'v of the arins 9 el" -theelipj From this it "will be evident that the outer portions of the sides ol" the body extend toward eaeh other.

fa body, anda channel ,extending along the body, the `outer portions' of the sides of' thel body being extended toward and separated These outer portions in the present ease con; stitute the flanges 6 when. the bodyof the: bead is made in triangular form. This, however, is not essential, for-l do not limit my-l self to any particular shapeof body, although I Iind a body which is substantially triangular in cross-section as best adapted for my purposes. .The bead therefore'is'oornposed 1n the present case of a body'and a channel extending along the body. The-clip has no movement inthe channel, but moves solely Yin the body and lits therein when the two parts are in Working relation, so that there is a bearing 'For a clip close to the framework upon which the plaster is laid.

What l claim isl. A bead having a central `ehannel, and.

.flanges diverging from said'ehannel, each ol' the flanges having inturned flanges along turned flan es.

@liasse their outer edges extending toward and sepa rated trein each othen 2. A bead having a central channel, and flanges diverging from said channel, each of the flanges having inturned flanges along their outer edges extending toward and separated from each other combined with a re# siient clip having a 'triangularl rhead and arms, the head being adapted to longitudinally adjustably lit the .space bounded by the several flanges, and the' arms .beingI adapted to extend through thesp'acebetween the in- 3. bea for the purpose described having from' each other to provide a mouth.

4. A beadfor the purposel described coniprising a substantially tubular body having a mouth along one side anda channel along the other side combi-ned with a clip having a head to travel solely/,in said tubular body` said elip havin arms extendingijrom the head thereol`- an through said mouth.

In testimony whereof l have ,hereunto set my hand in presenoeof two subscribing wit'- nesses.
