This invention relates to adjustably curvable structural sheets.
The object of the invention is to provide such a sheet having a rectilinear face which is well reinforced to withstand deformation by pressure on it, the sheet being capable of cylindriform curvature to any desired radius or radii within its range of bending and of being then made rigid against change of curvature; andbeing also capable of repeated readjustments to different curvatures.
The word rectilinear as applied to the face of the composite sheet is here used in the special sense of being composed of parallel straight lines;
' and is intended to include plane and curved faces.
The term cylindriform or parti-cylindrical for is intended to include any curved form in which the face of the composite sheet remains rectilinear in thesense defined.
A structural sheet according to the invention comprises a flat sheet preferably of metal and of sufiicient flexibility to bend readily to the desired cylindriform curvature. From the back of said flat sheet extend a series of parallel ribs which permit the flat sheet to bend transversely to the ribs, but which make it substantially rigid in the direction of the length of the ribs. sufiiciently close to one another to provide substantial support to the strips of the flat sheet ly ing between them, and to enable the sheet to bend in a smooth curve. The structural sheet further comprises adjustable means for making it rigid transversely to the corrugations, so that it is then rigid in all directions.
In the preferred embodiment of the invention the reinforcing ribs are provided by a metal sheet which is thin enough to be readily flexible and which is formed with parallel corrugations; and is conveniently a sheet of commercial corrugated iron.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which:
' Figure 1 is a perspective view of the back of the structural sheet, with a portion broken out of its vertical length.
Figure 2 is a detail sectional plan showing an alternative form of the ribs".
Figure 3is an elevation of part of the back of the sheet showing an alternative form of the adjustable tying means.
Figure 4 is a sectional plan showing several sheets curved and assembled to form shuttering for a curved wall.
Figure 5 is an elevation of part of the front of the sheet showing ornamental formations.
The ribs are 2, 3 indicates a composite sheet comprising'a flat metal sheet? and a sheet of corrugated iron 3, both being of thin enough gauge to be readily flexible. The flat sheet and the corrugated sheet are assembled face to face with the ridges 4 of the corrugations on one side of sheet 3 in contact with the fiat sheet; and they are permanently connected in that relationship by securing said ri es to "the flat sheet, as by Welding. Thereby the corrugations form, at the back of the flat sheet, a series of parallel ribs 5 which render the composite sheet 2, 3 rigid against bending in the direction of the ribsjbut leave it flexible transversely to the ribs; the ribs moreover being sufficiently close to reinforce the flat sheet against local deformation. In the alternative construction shown in Figure 2 the series of ribs is provided by separate bars such as 6 secured to the flat sheet 2 parallel with. one another.
I, l and 8, 8 are flanges provided at the edges of the composite sheet 2, 3 for securing several of such sheets to one another. They are conveniently'formed by turning back marginal strips of the sheet 2. Positioned at the back of the corrugated sheet 3 or the bars 6 and soas to lie on the ridges 9 of the ribs 5 thereof is a flat flexible sheet l0. Said sheet is fixed at or near to one of the vertical edges of the composite sheet whichis parallel to the ribs. It is shown as being thus secured by being soldered to the adjacent flange 8 and by being bolted at H to the ridge 9 nearest the edge of the sheet.- Said sheet l0 extends across the composite sheet more than half way to the opposite edge 8. its is a similar sheet similarly fixed at or near to the opposite edge 8 and also extending more than halfway across the composite sheet, so that the sheets l0 and Illa overlap.
Transverse rows of bolts l2 are fixed to the ridges 9 of the ribs 5, by soldering their heads 13 inside the corrugations. The sheets in and Illa are slotted at M to allow said bolts to pass through them and have transverse play relatively to them. At the back of the sheets l0, Illa the bolts are provided with washers I5 and thumb nuts I6 which even when loose hold said sheets Ill, llla appproximately in contact with the ridges 9.
The ridges 4 are tied together by the flat sheet 2. Consequently transverse bending of the composite sheet causes the corrugations slightly to change their curvature and the opposite ridges 9 to close together or separate accordingly as the face 2 of the sheet is made convex or concave.
Since the outer edges of the sheets l0, Illa are fixed to the composite sheet, such movement of the ridges causes the bolts M to slide relatively to the sheets I0, Illa. Accordingly, when the composite sheet has been bent to the curvature desired, screwing down of the nuts is also ties together the ridges 9; and the front ridges and back ridges being thus simultaneously tied, the composite sheet is made rigid, at the curvature in question, against transverse bending.
The fully rigid sheet may then be assembled, with others if necessary to form for instance a mould for a curved concrete wall I! as shown in Figure 4. After it has served its purpose, and been removed from the set concrete, loosening of the nuts [6 renders it free to be brought to some other form within its range; and used again.
Instead of the sheets in, Illa. being continuous from top to bottom of the composite sheet, they may be reduced to a series of transversely flexible straps l0, Mia and Ha, lib as shown in Figure 3.
The edge flanges I which extend transversely to the ribs, are cut into small sections la to enable them to curve with the composite sheet. Both sets of flanges may be formed with interlocking formations such as the pressed-out channels H3.
The fiat sheet 2 instead of presenting a wholly fiat face may have ornamental formations it, Figure 5, in the nature of flutes running parallel with the ribs; such formations-not materially im pairing the transverse flexibility of the composite sheet nor permitting transverse elongation or contraction of the flat sheet when the latter is curved.
