Description
UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM S. BELT, OF CINCINNATI, OHIO.
IMPROVEMENT IN METALLIC ROOFINGS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 117,855, dated August 8, 1871.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, \VILLIAM S. BELT, of Oincinnati, Hamilton county, State of Ohio, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Metallic Roofing; and I do hereby declare the following to be a sufficiently full, clear, and exact description thereof to enable one skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawing making part of this specification.
My invention consists of a peculiar form of crimp for the junction-edges of metallic roofingplates, by which the customary triangular strips on the sheathing, to which the plates are nailed, are entirely dispensed with, and ample provision made for fastening the plates to the sheathing.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of a portion of a metallic roof embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a section of the same.
A and A represent, respectively, the sheathing and rafters of a roof. B represents my im-' proved form of roofing-plate. At the junction of the plates one with another, at each side, V- formed crimps O are made, and in addition to this one side of each plate has an extension or flange, D, formed with the crimp, to which it is adjacent, by one operation of a machine I have designed for the purpose, which is the subject of a separate application for Letters Patent. These crimps are uniform in location, size, and shape, the two sides of the V being so constructed as to constitute a right angle. The flange D is perforated at equal distances with small apertures a for nails, the part of the next plate below the flange being perforated to match, as shown at 1). Through these apertures small nails are driven into the sheathing A of the roof, the heads of the nails being fitted with copper washers or gaskets to make water-tight joints over the apertures.
It will be seen that with this device for fastening the customary V-shaped strips under the V'crimps are dispensed with, and that the edge of the crimp is of much stifi'er form than that heretofore made, and less calculated to be affected by wind.
I claim- In a metallic roof, the arrangement of the V- crimped sheets B O, as shown and described, the novelty consisting in placing the crimp with the perforated flange D over the crimp of the adjacent sheet, so that each sheet will be fastened at each side to the sheathing of the roof.
In testimony of which invention I hereunto set my hand.
