METALLIC AND GLASS CONSTRUCTION.
' Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed October 27, 1909. Serial No. 524,997.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, Vroron OLSEN and Oir'ro Dar n, who are citizens of theUnited States, residing at Detroit, county of Wayne,
State of Michigan, have invented a certain' new and useful Improvement in Metallic.
and Glass Construction, and declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the same, such as will enable bthers skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specifiction.
This invention relates to combined metallic and lass constructionof' the type especially a apted'. for ornamental ceilings, and hasfor its object an improved means fdr holding in place selected and especially prepared squares or other shaped tablets of glass in desired position with respect to one another and to the supporting members therefor, with the interposition between the glass and the eye 6f the observer of as little fastening material as possible, the glass, however, being spaced below the level of the supporting ceiling beams.
In the drawings :-Figure l, is a sectional elevation of one of the finishing rosettes and glass-holding strip; together with the ad jacent edges of glassland the wooden support to which it'is fastened. Fig. 2, is a plan view of the meeting corners of adjacent sections 'of glass with the finishing rosette in place thereover. Fig. 3, is a plan from beneath a'section of ceiling, showing several sections of glass held in place by the means described. Fig. 4, is a sectional elevation of y the metal-supporting strip or beam and of the glass-holding clip in its initially .attached position thereon. Fig. 5, is a per= spective of the channeled glass-holding strip.
I indicates the supporting beam slightly spaced, from the under face of .which are intended to be supported the meeting edges oftwo lights or tabletsof glass 2 and 3.
4 is a channeled metal chamber, somewhat resemblinga U in cross section, which is adapted to be nailed or screwed to the beam 5 against the under portion of the beam I by nails or small sirews 6. After the. glass has been placed against-either of the flaiige rnembers 7 and 8, the clip portions 9 and'lO of this member 4;, are bent over so as to vengage-under the edge of the glass, that is, on the opposite face from that engaged by-the-fiang'e 7 or 8. These strips, meeting as they do at the points of intersection of their supporting beams with similar ones, running usually at right angles to them have their meeting ends covered in the first instance by a filler piece 11, which, in turn, is covered by the ornamental rosette 13 through both of these engages the screw 15, which in addition extends through the depth of the member fland into the supporting strip 1. Either the filler piece 11 or the rosette 13 may be omitted without departing from the proper scope of my invention, or, instead of the rosrtte, an electric light fixture with its ros'ette covering the meeting ends of the metal strip may be installed, the concave portion of the strip 4 being especially adapted to contain electric Wires .therewithin. Or, if desired, the nails 6 may be omitted and the support given thereto be concentrated at the ends, where the rosettes and holding screws are located. One of these rosettes 6 extends over the meeting corners of four squares, each of which is so located and so shaped as to have its other three corners similarly .held in relation to adjacent corners of the other squares of glass.
hat we claim is z- I 1. In combination with a supporting beam member, a metal member of trough shaped cross section adapted to engage against one' face of said beam, said member having its outerflanged edge portions cut into a plurality of sections independent of one another, though retaining their conneotion with the body portion of. the metal member, and said sections being altern'atingly bent "into a position of coincidence with one of two "planes substantially parallel with the adjacent face of the beam member, a pane of glass adapted to have its edge portions inserted between the two series of flanged sec-. tions along the edge of the metal member, a filler member having a broad headengaging within the troughed portion of the metal member, and a correlating screw extending through said metal member and said filler member into said beam member, substan- 'tially as described.
2. The combination of a supporting beam, apane of glass whose support out of con-j 1 Patented Jan. 17, 191 1 tact-therewith is desired, a channeled metal member supported from said beam, said? 3 vided into a plurality of sections and ada tj member having flanged edge portions di-i ed to be 'bent alternatmgly against the e ge i portions of the by said parts at'a distance from the point 01 glass, a fill opposing faces'of said pane of attachment of the channeled member to er member engaging against 15 the inner face of said channeled member at I the beam, and means engaging over the its ends, a rosette member engaging theremeeting ends of adjacent channcled members over, and a correlating holding screw eX for correlating the same, substantially as tending therethrongh into the body t the described. beam, substantially as described. In testimony whereof, We sign this speci- 20 3.
