TILE on sTA|nTREAb- Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented April 1e, 19o?.
Application filed March 24, 1905. Renewed March 21,1907. Serial No. 363.746.
purposes,and comprises a sheet-metal plate` faced with rubber or other composition, whichcompo'sition is held in place by proj ec-I tions on the sheet-metal plate extending into the composition facing.
The mventlon consists 1n the features and combmation and arrangement of parts here# ,inafter described, and particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure-1 is a plan view of the tile embodying my invention, and Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the same on line 2 2 of Fig. 1 with a part of the adjacent tile. foundation-plate. the foundation-plate With the composition facing removed. y 1
The tile is made up of a foundation-plate 1, o'f sheet metal or other suitable material, faced with a composition of rubber or other appropriate material, as indicated at 2. The sheet metal is struck up at various points (indicated'at 3)' to form conical projections, spurs, or rings, which provide perforations, as at 4. In forming the tile. the plate prepared With these perforated projections or edges 'is placed in position and the rubber composition is applied thereto, so that'in addition to covering the surface of the plate and the projections or edges formed thereon the said composition will pass down through the perforations in the projections, as indicated at 5, so as to underlie the said projections, down to the lower face of the plate. `This securely holds the composition to the metal, and in addition to this the said compositlon linde a rest or support upon the surface to Which the tile is applied, and thus furnishes a resilientetread or tile, the resilient materlal of which extends from the floor up through the metal plate to the to face of the tile.l The base or foundation p ate of metal 1s preferably formed Withits outer edges upturned, as at 11, though I do not l1m1t myself 1n this respect,` and when so formed the composition.
material extends above the plane of these edges.
Fig. 3 is a side lview of they Fig. 4 is a plan view ofl The 'tile as above described is intended for use in the manner set forth in my application, Serial No. 228,371, filed October 13,
1904, with which locking-tongues and recesses are combined so that lthe adjacent tiles may be locked together'.
In the application referred to I show a metallic foundation-plate having thel cor'npos-ition or other facing thereon, the metal found ation having thereon the interlocking tongues and the recesses to recelve said tongues being formed in parts of the composition facing which overhangs indented portions of the foundation-plate. In my present construction I embody the features just mentioned, though in a'modified form. Instead of cutting the i metal entirely away. to form the indents in the present case vI leave'the edge portion of the metal, but press it up out of the horizontal plane .of the body of the plate, as at 10. This provides an indent at 6, for the reception of the tongue 7 on the adjacent tile,
the upturned end of said -tongue passing up into the recess'8formed in the overhanging portion of thecomposition facing. My 4present method of forming'the indent provides an opening through the foundation metal or plate at 9, through which the upturned' end of'the tongue on the adjacent tile extends vertically. This provides a stronger construction than that described in my former'application, for While in both cases I provide-an indent to receive the tongue on the adjacent tile I provide inthe present case a brid e piece or margin 10, extending over the indent and behind which the end of the tongue locks. 7
I do not Wish to limit myself to the precise formY of the parts extending up into or- `throughy the composition on the face of the plate. I :may use tapered Wearing-pins, s u'ch as shown at 12, attached tothe foundation.
- I claim as my invention- 1. A tile comprising a foun'dation-plate4 lhaving an indented side and a facing material overhanging the indented side, the indented side of the foundation-plate being bridged by 4a part of the metal of said plate leaving an opening-for a locking-tongue to pass up scribed. v
2. A tile comprising -a foundation-plate having an indented side and a facing mate -rial overhanging the indented side, the' indented side of the foundationplate being therethrough, substantially as deai. j 850,273
bridged by a part of the metal of said plate leaving an opening for a locking-tongue to pass up therethrough, said opening extending up into the facing material, substantially as described. v
3. A tile having a foundation-plate and a facing material applied thereto, said facing material having a recess in its under face and a foundation-plate having an opening therethrough registering with the said recess to receive a locking-tongue, substantially as de-v scribed. f
4. A tile comprising a foundation-plate having an indented side anda projecting .tongue and a facing material overhanging the indented side and provided with a recess to receive a tongue said indent being bridged by `a part of the metal platle leaving an opening for the tongue of an adjacent tilev to pass up throuh, substantially as described.
tgl 5. tile having a foundation-plate and a facing material applied thereto, said foundation-plate having an opening formed therethrough to receive the tongue of an adjacent tile and having a tongue to engage the opening of an'adjacent tile, substantially as described. j
6. A tile having a foundation-plate and a facing material applied thereto said facing material having a recess in its under face and the foundation plate having an opening therethrough registering with the said recess and a tongue on the plate to engage the opening and recess of an adjacent tile, sub stantially as described.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of two Witnesses.
