TILE FLOOR.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented March 23, 1909.
Application filed March 19, 1908. Serial No.- 421,992.
To all whom ii may concern:
Be it known that LFHANK IAnsoNs, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Boston, in the county of Suolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and usefulv Improvement in Tile Floors, of whichthe following is a specification.
My invention relates to tile iioors and more especially a tile iioor which is laid over an existing loor of wood, concrete, or other mak terial, and the object of my invention is to provide a tile floor which may be laid more cheaply and efficiently than the tile iloors now in use.
My invention will be explained in connection with the drawings which accompany and form a part of this speciiication and which illustrate two types ol:l tile floors constructed in accordance with the present invention, but it will be understood that many modiiications may be made in the speciiic types of tile floors therein illustrated without departing from the spirit oi my invention.
In the drawings Figure 1 is a plan view representing a wooden floor. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of a tile constructed in accordance with my invention, and Fig. 3 is a sectional view of a wooden floor having my improved tile secured thereto. Fig. 4 is a sectional view of a modiiication in which my tile is secured to a concrete Iioor.
In the iigures A A represent the planks or boards of a woodenloor and B B represent tile securing means projecting from said Iioor at regular intervals and having laterally extending heads. As shown in the drawings, these tile securing means may be screws.
The tile C is provided on its under side with apertures D extending part way therethrough and so arranged as to register with the screws B or other tile-securing means after the latter have been placed in position on the floor to which the tile is to be secured.
Preferably the position of the screws or other tile-securing means is determined by means of a templet having holes conformingk to the apertures D in the tile. After the position or' the tile-securing means on the -floor has been determined by means of such templet or in any other suitable manner, and the screws B or other tile-securing means are placed in position, the apertures D are lilled with a suitable cementitious material and each tile is then placedy in position on the floor and over the tile-securing means, so that the latter extend up into the apertures D, thereby forcing the cementitious material E around the heads of the tile-securing means. It will be apparent that when the cementitious material hardens the tile is very securely held in position on the 'Hooi'.
In Fig. 4, A represents a floor of concrete having dumb-bcll shaped tile-securing mem bers B embedded therein at regular intervals. The tile-securing members may be secured to the concrete Hoor during the construction of the same, or if a tile floor is to be laid over an existing concrete loor, apertures may be cut into the latter and the dumb-bell shaped members embedded therein and secured thereto by cement in a manner that will be readily understood.
After the various sets of dumb-bell shaped members B have been embedded in the cement floor, the apertures D in the tiles are filled with the cementitious material as before and placed on the concrete licor so that the members B will extend up into the said apertures, thereby forcing the cement around their heads and thus iirmly holding the tile to the floor.
It will be obvious that the shape and con vstruction of ythe tile as well as the form of the tile-securing means do not constitute material features of my invention and may be 'subjected to a wide range of variation without departing from the principle thereof.
I claim:
l. In combination, a floor, a plurality of tile securing members projecting therefrom at regular intervals, a tile provided on its under side with a plurality of recesses theA walls of which are normal to the base of the tile, said recesses extending part way through thetile and registering with said tile-securing members, and cementitious material iilling said recesses and surrounding the projecting portions of said tile securing members, whereby the tile may be positioned and secured to the iloor.
'2. In combination, a floor, a plurality of tile securing members each having a laterally extending head and projecting from the floor at regular intervals, a tile provided on its underside with a plurality of recesses the walls of which are normal to the base of the tile, said recesses extending part way through the tile and registering with said tile-securing members, and cementitious material iilling said recesses and surrounding the projecting portions 0f said tile securing members, whereby the tile may be positioned and secured t0 the H001'.
3. ln combination, a H001', :i plurality of dumb-bell shaped tile-securing` members projecting therefrom et regular intervals, one heed 0f each 0f said members being` embedded in said lloor, a tile provided on its under side with a plurality of recesses the mlls 0f which are normal t0 the base 0f the tile, said recesses extending part Wely through the tile and registering with seid tile-securing members, und cementitieus umleriail lillingl mid recesses and surrounding the rnojeeting porl tions of said tile-securing members, whereby the tiles may be positioned und secured lo the H001'.
ln testimony whereof, l have hereunto subseribed my neme this 18th (lary of Mell, lees.
