METAL INTERIOR CONSTRUCTION.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Sept. 17,1957.
Application filed November 24,1906. Serial lip. 344,857-
To all whom'itmay-con cem:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM F. KIESEL, Jr., a citizen oi the United States, residing at Altoona, in the county of Blair and, State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Metal Interior Construction, of which the following is a specification.
This inventionrelates moreparticularly .to improvements in the manner of constructing metal partitions for the different compartments'in the higher grade of steel passengercar's, although I do not wish to confine the invention exclusively to car construction.-
My object is to provide means for building up the partitions from plates of steel and to conceal or finish ofi the seams between-the plates in such manner as to present a pleasing appearance and to break up the partitions into panels of more'or less ornamental de g e the partition plates an insulating fire;- and soundproof backing, which-upon 'the reverse side of the partition will also present a finished appearance.
I attain my objects by constructingthe partitions in the manner illustrated in the accompanying draw- Figure 1 represents, in elevation, the exterior orfinished side of a partition embodying my improvements, said partition being capped bye. metal cornice molding constructed in the manner described in my co-pending .application for improvements in moldings, Serial No.
' 344855, filed of even date herewith; Fig. 2, a horizontalsection of Fig.1 where said figure is broken off at the bottom; Fig. 3, a vertical transverse section on the line a-a in Fig. 2; and Fig. 4, a fragment showing the reverse side of the partition and the clamping stri between partition sections.
Like numerals designate like parts in the several views.
These metalpartitions areintended to be employed in dividing off the compartments in parlor, dining room and other high grade passenger'cars; The partitions are formed primarily of metal plates, as indicated at 1,2, 8 and 9, the meeting edges of which are flanged on the reverse side and bolted together, preferably by riveted joints, with a finishing strip of metal riveted in between joints; the outer edge of which strip will be so formed as to present a finished appearance at-the seam. These partition strips break the partition up into panels, the plates between the principal panel strips being either plain orbroken up into more or less ornamental designs.
.At the left hand side of Figs. 1 and 2, a portion oia panel is shown, said panel being built up from, plates I Afurther object to provide nieans for attaching to the spam between plates. These strips 5 may be of' diflerent metal from the plates 1, 2 and 3, such as brass.
or aluminium, and the plates 2 andB may be further ornamented by forming thereon longitudinal channels to receive'inserts '20 to produce inlayeffects. The plate 2, which constitutes one side of this panel is riveted to the next panel plate 8, (which inthe drawings is illustrated as a curved panel), bymeans of the flanges 6 riveted together, with a panel strip 7 of T-shaped cross-section fastened between the flanges and overlapping the exterior edges of the plates. This panel strip 7 may also be of different/metal from the partition plates. The curved plate 8 may be fastened at its opposite edge to a partition plate extending at right angles to'the first panel, or it may have a panel plate. secured thereto on a parallelline with said panel, as shown at 9, the panel plate 9 being flanged and attached directly to the side of plate 8, and the joint between plates being finished by the beaded strip 11 of plate 8. In this manner the partitions may be built up in any shape desired. They may be finished ofi at the top by a cornice molding 21 of any suitable design. -As a backing for these partition plates, which at the same time will be fireand sound-proof, I provide panels 1 of asbestos board.12 spaced apart at the ends, or wher ever necessary, by strips 13 of the same material, the surface'of theasbestos board on the inside of the partition' being finished witha thin sheathing 14 of metal or other. suitable material, and the asbestos boards and sheathing 14 being riveted together at the ends, as
illustrated, to complete the panel. To fasten these inside panels to the partition plates, I provide, at suit- "able intervals along the panel-division strips 7, eyebolts 16, said eye-bolts being. riveted in between the flanges 16, where the strip 7 is cut away for the purpose,
as shown more clearly inFig. 3. .By means of these eye-bolts a clamping plate 15 is set up against the ends of the inside panels to fasten them against the principal partition plates. Where a corner joint is to be made, eye-bolts l8 willbe secured in place by transverse bolts 19 and a corner clamping plate 17 employed. By this means a substantia'land rigid partition is produced of'light construction, with a perfect insulating backing of soundand fire-proof'materials, the whole presenting an artistic exterior finishand a plain, but neat, interior ,finish for the compartment inclosed by the partition. It will also be understood that the interior sheathing plates 14. may be arranged to produce decorative panel effects for the interiors of compartments, the partition construction herein shown being designed more particularly for dividing off the kitchen compartment from the main saloon in a dining car.
What I claim as my invention and desire to secure by Letters-Patent is:
1. A metal partition comprising plates flanged and bolted together along their meeting edges. in combination with bolls fastened in with said flanges and projecting therefrom at right angles to the plates. and a clamping plate fastened in place by said bolts, whereby the finish for the reverse side of the partition may be secured in place. V
2. A metal partition comprising plates ,Ilang'ed and bolted together along their meeting edges, in combination with a strip of metal bolted in between flanges. said strip being partially cut away at intervals, eye-bolts inserted between flanges where said strip is cut away. and a .ylalliping; plate fastened in place by said bolts. whereby the finish for the reverse side of the partition may be secured to said plates.
3. A partition comprising metal plates joined together along their. meeting edges, bolts fastened to the plates at the joints, an insulating backing set up against the plates. and a clamping: plate fastened inplace by said bolts to hold the backing in place. I
4. A partition comprising metal plates joined together along theiruneeting edges, and an insulating backing composed of tire proof and sound deadening material secured to the plales at one side.
3. A partition panel built up from metal plates flanged and bolted together at their meeting edges. with beaded strips fastened in between flanges.
(i. A metal plate for inside finish having a channel formed thereon. and an insert of a different material secured in said channel. I
In testimony whereof I have afiixed my signature, in
presence of two witnesses.
