' METALLIC SHINGLE.
Be itknownthat I, GEORGE C. SHERMAN,
Geneva, in the county of Ontario and State of-New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Metallic Shingles, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to an improvement in metallicshingles, and the-object is to rovide shingles which can be laid on the roo boards of a roofv and which are so interlocked together that the rain cannot beat under the shingles, norin any wise get to the roof boards. The invention relates to certain other novel features of construction and combinations of parts which will-be hereinafter described and pointed out in the claims. In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a View in perspective showing several of the shingles connected together and as applied to a roof; ,Fig. 2 is a transverse sectional view; Fig. 13 is a plan view of one of the shingles before it is folded, Fig. 4 is a bottom plan view and Fig. 5 is a sectional view.
- A represents the shingle, and 1 is the upper flange which is bent over on to the outer surface of the shingle, and 2 is the lower flange which has a cutaway portion at one end 12 and the flange is bent over onto the inner surface of the shingle.
3 is one ofthe side flanges which is adapted to be folded over on itself, as at 4, and extending over the outer surface of the shingle and beneath. the upper flange is the nailing stri' 5,Wl1i0l1 forms a part of the flange3 and whi 3h is bent down and lies in the same lane with the surface or body of the shingle. Another side flange 6 is folded over onto the inner surface of the shingle and has the upper end thereof cut off for a short distance, as at 7, and at its lower edge the flange is cut ofl on an incline, as at 8.
, Along the roof boards 9 a flanged strip 11 is secured which projects below and outwardly from the roof boards at the caves and along the sides of the roof. In laying the hooking the flange 6 into the flange 3. The
flange 3 is closed at the top by having its upper edge bent down against the body of t e Specification of Letters Patent.
lGClGlOIl from the first-named side Patented June 2, i908. I Application filed November 16, 1907. Serial No. 402,556. I i
shingle and by the flange .1. 1 Theflange IliS i made higher at this end of the shingle to permit its overlapping the flange 3. The flange 6 does not come into contact with the closed end of the flange 3 on account of the cutaway portion 7, and the flange-6 is hooked overv the flanged strip 11, and then the, shingle is pushedupwardly underneath the flange 1.,
and so on, until the entire rowis completed.
"As each shingle is laid the nailing strip 5 re ceives nails therethrough for, securing it.to;-
the roof boards. a
The second row is startedwithiahalfshin-i le, to form lapjoints, and instead of'theya 11 they hook on the flanged strip 1.. i
By the cutaway portion 12 of the-flange 2 any water or rain which could possibly strike ower flanges 2 hooking on the flangedlstripz the flange Gwould pass down the flange and I out through this opening to the base ofthe shingle where it would strike the outer surface of the shingle belowand-the cutaway or inclined portion of the flange 6 revents the end being closed and permits t e water to pass off. The cutaway portion 7 at the upper end of the. flange 6, ermits of the flange 3 being closed by the ang e 1 thereby assuring a tight connection at the top and preventing any Water from passing down' through the upper end of the flan e 3'. Again the cutaway, portion 12 of the ange 2 permits and leaves enough of the turned over flange 2 to form a cover throughout-the connection of the shingles whichextends down and is even with the roof or shingle leaving merely aslight-o ening for any-water.
to pass through and w ch would prevent any water from being driven up b'eneaththe shingles.
It is evident that slight alterations might several parts described without departing from the spirit and sec e of my invention, and hence I do notwish to llmit myself to the exact construction herein set forth, but Having fully ,described my invention, what;. I claim as new and desireto secure by Letters Patent is .9 be made in the form and arrangements of the 1; A shingle, comprising abod y portion having upper and'lowerflanges bent in oppo-. site directions fromeach other, a side flange overlapping the shingle and'having a nail strip, the upper flange overlapping said side flange, a side flange bentin t e oipposite di-;
angehaving its ends cut away whereby'it is capableof being received over the opposite side flange of a second shingle, the lower flange having one end cut away, which portion of the flange extends down over the lower flange of the adjoining shingle and the lower flange of the shingle interlocking flange of the lower shingle.
v 2. A shingle, comprising a body portion having upper and lower flanges bent in opposite directions from each other, a side flange having its upperend closed overlapping the shingle, another side flange underlapping the shingle in the opposite direction from the first named flange, said flange having one end cutaway so as not'to come into contact with .the closed end when interlocked with the first named side flange of the second shingle, \and the lower flange of the shingle interlocking with the upper flange of the lower shingle;
'3. A shingle, comprising a body portion, flanges at the top and bottom and bent in opposite directionsfrom each other, a side flange having its upper end closed overlapping the shingle the top flange being higher a san end and overlapping the side flange at 1 (closed end, another side flange underlapp ng'the shingle in the opposite direction with the upper from the first side flange, saidflange having is one end cut away so as not to come into contact with the closed end when interlocking with the first named side flange of the secon shingle, and the lower flange of the. shingle adapted to overlap the upper flange of the lower shingle.
4. A shingle, comprising a body portion having upper and lower flanges, the upper Y flange bent over the shingle and the lower flange under the shingle, a side flange having its upper end closed overla ping the shingle, the upper flange. being higlier at one end to overlap the side flan e and permit the interlocking of the lower ange of another shingle with said upper flange, anotherside flange underlapping' the shingle in the opposite direction from the first side flange, said flange having one end cut away so as not to come into contact with the closed endwhen interlocking with the opposite side flange of the second shin'gle.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in presence of twowitnesses.
