2. The method of forming tile-sections into a body,
which consists in bringing the several sections nearly together edge to
edge, but with an open space between such edges, interposing a foundation
cathode electrical conductor between such edges but so as still to leave a
space to be filled between such edges, then subjecting the whole to the
process of electrodeposition while the parts are in such position, and
thus depositing a homogeneous mass of metal between the tile edges until
the tile edges are permanently secured together by the engagement of the
conductor and mass of deposited metal with each other and with the tile
between the edges thereof, and continuing such electrodeposition until the
mass of deposited metal is continued over upon the surface of such sections
along such edges. 3. The method of forming tile-sections into a body, which consists in bringing the several sections nearly together edge to edge, but with an open space between such edges, interposing a foundation cathode electrical conductor comprising a loose skeleton frame of relatively strong metal between such edges but so as to still leave a space to be filled between such edges, then subjecting the whole to the process of electrodeposition while the parts are in such position, and this depositing a homogeneous mass of metal between the tile edges until the tile edges are permanently secured together by the engagement of the conductor and mass of deposited metal with each other and with the tile between the edges thereof. 4. The method of forming tile-sections into a body, which consists in bringing the several sections nearly together edge to edge, interposing a foundation cathode electrical conductor comprising a loose skeleton frame of relatively strong material between such edges but so as still to leave a space to be filled between such edges, then subjecting the whole to the process of electrodeposition while the parts are in such position, and thus depositing a homogeneous mass of metal between the tile edges until the tile edges are permanently secured together by the engagement of the conductor and mass of deposited metal with each other and with the tile between the edges thereof, and continuing such electrodeposition until the mass of deposited metal is continued over upon the surface of such sections along such edges. |
5. The method of forming tile-sections into a body,
which consists in bringing the several sections nearly together edge to
edge, such opposed edges being provided with grooves, interposing a
foundation cathode electrical conductor between such edges, then subjecting
the whole to the process of electrodeposition while the parts are in such
position and thus depositing a homogeneous mass of metal between the tile
edges and within the such grooves until the tile edges are permanently
secured together by the engagement of the conductor and mass of deposited
metal with each other and with the tile between the edges thereof and
the walls of the groove. 6. The method of forming tile-sections into a body, which consists in bringing the several sections nearly together edge to edge, but with an open space between such edges, said sections provided with prismatic ribs which extend substantially across the section and form intermediate surface angles, interposing a foundation cathode electrical conductor between such edges, then subjecting the whole to the process of electrodeposition while the parts are in such position, and thus depositing a homogeneous mass of metal upon such conductor and within such surface angles adjacent to the edges where such conductor is interposed, until the tile wedges are permanently secured together by the engagement of the conductor and mass of deposited metal with each other and with the tile-surfaces within such angles. 7. The method of forming tile-sections into a body, which consists in bringing the several sections nearly together edge to edge, but with an open space between such edges, interposing a foundation cathode electrical conductor between such edges, but so as still to leave a space to be filled between such edges, inserting within such spaces a finely-divided electrical conducting material, then subjecting the whole to the process of electrodeposition while the parts are in such position, and thus depositing a homogeneous mass of metal between the tile edges and in the midst of such finely-divided electrical conducting material until the tile edges are permanently secured together.
