Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented April 1.907.
A lication fil d hoveniber 2a, 1906. Serial no. 344.766.
To (all whom, it may concern:-
- Be it known that I, ROBERT B. WHITE, a citizen of the United States, residing at Boonville, in the county of VVarrick and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Metal Columns; and I do declare the following to be a full, of ar, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to improvements in metal columns.
One object of the invention is to provide a column of this character constructed of sheet metal having suitable ca and base portions which are connected wit .in the sheet-metal shaft of the column by a rigid support.
A further object is'to provide means by which a' porch-rail may be connected to the column.
With theabove and other objects in view the invention consists of certain novel features of construction, combination, and arran ement of parts, as will be hereinafter descri ed and claimed.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is a side view of a column constructed in accordance' with the invention. Figi2 is a central vertical sectional view of the same, and Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view showing the mannerin which a porch-rail may be connected thereto.
Referring more particularly to the drawings,'1 denotes the sheet-metal shaft of the co umn, which maybe of plain cylindrical shape, as shown, or of corrugated or other ornamental design.
. Arranged in the lower ends of the column 1 is a sultable base 2, which may be formed of cast-iron or of plastic material or any other suitable material. On the upper side of the base 2 is formed an upwardly1)1'ojeot-- ing boss or projection 3, that extends up into the lower end of the column a suitable distance to secure the column to-the base. The lower side of the base may be inclined to one side to accommodate the same to the Ditchor inclination of a porch-floor. ln the cape of water from beneath the column.
On the upper end of the c lumn is arranged a cap 5. pre erably formed of cast-1ron; but
it may be constructed of a plastic composition. The cap 5 and the base 2 may be formed in any desired. configuration or ornamental design. The cap 5 is provided on its under side with a downwardly projcting boss or projection 6, which fits into the upper end of the column a sufficient distance to secure the cap thereto. In the cap 5 and base 2 project the upper and lower ends of a centrally-disposed support or brace 8 for supporting tie weight of the roof; This roofsupport 8 may be constructed of any suitable material, but which is preferably formed of gamed, which may be coated or painted with tect the same.
In manufacturing. the columns the shafts a suitable preserving solution or paint to promitting nesting of the same when being shipped.- The caps and base-sections will also be formed in a variety of sizes, whereby they may also be nested together to facilitate the shipping thereof. Adapted to be 'may be made in a variety of sizes, thus persecured to one side of the support 8 is a segmental block 9, the curved outer surface of the same being of the same size as and adapted to fit the inner wall of the column. The block 9 is secured to the support 8 in position to receive the nails or other fastening devices by which the end of the porch-rail is secured to the column, thus providing for a firm support and connection for the rail.
A column constructed as herein shownand described will be simple, strong, durable, and
inexpensive in construction and may be constructed in a variety of styles or designs suitable for use on porches or other building construction.-
From the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, the construction and operation of the invention will be rea dily understood without requiring a more extended explanation.
Various changes in the form, proportion, and the minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the prineiple or sac ificing any of the advantages'of this invention as defined by theappended I claims. g under side of the base may be formed one or I .more'grooves or channels 4 to permit thcesllaving thus described myi11ventio11, i\i:hat 1 claim as new, and desire to secure bfi Lettors lajit4 11t,isi 1 A metallic column coinprising a sheet metal shaft, a hollow base-seetionarranged Weight of the roof I porch-rail to the column, substantially in the lower en?! thereof, a hollow rmp-s rtion 1n the upper enri thorool 2111-2 :1 -"ill'il'illljy lower end of said shaft, said section having arranged in the lower end thereof, a hollowy cap-section cle'taehably arranged 1n the upperin the shaft with its ends exteniiug through end thereof and a supportinggbeem arranged said base seetion and cup to Support the 3.'A Inet'iill'c column eomprisinge sheetmetal shalt, a hollow l :zs(---sv tunl arranged posed Wooclen supportinn-henna nrmn' ml in the shaft, tosupport'the '\('l i'.l.i m'tlio rool and means to provide lor the CUUlWClJtHI o'l n. rleseribed.
