Abstract

A wall anchor system is provided for a building of the type having a cladding system thereon wherein an outside wall structure is located on the exterior of a building and at least one insulation member located on the outside wall for retaining heat in the building. A cladding system is provided to cover the insulation including a plurality of wall anchor members and an elongated strip for extending across and attachment to the fastening member of more than one wall anchoring member. The wall anchors each comprise a flat back plate for attachment to the outside wall structure by a fastener, a wall anchor plate portion extending at a right angle from the back plate and a fastening member of the wall anchoring member extending downwardly at a right angle from the wall anchor member portion.

Description

CLADDING SYSTEM FOR BUILDING
This invention relates a cladding system for building in which insulation for the building is supported.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention stops blind fastening through insulation board.
The present invention fastens directly to substrate allowing user to follow pre marked stud lines. Fasteners that do not hold securely can easily be removed and re fastened. This results in less unsecured fasteners and allows the installer easy access to change an unsecured fastener.
The present invention creates the thermal bridging necessary to stop cold from transmitting through the metal into the wall system.
The present invention speeds application of "Insuloc channel" by initially holding insulation boards in place allowing easy instillation of the metal channel. The use of short fasteners makes the present invention easy to install.
The tabs allow a wide bearing point to securely fasten the metal channel.
The fastening of the invention allows a proper seal to exterior air vapour membrane systems. The screw can be dabbed in a sealant before installing to ensure a proper seal of the air barrier member penetration. By tightening the present invention on the wall the flat back plate will create a gasket effect against the wall membrane helping to seal the penetration.
The present invention gives the channel system great structural integrity allowing the system to handle heavier loads than comparable systems.
The present invention saves money. It gives an economical alternative to "Z-Bars". The present invention and the channel system is cheaper to install and less costly to purchase than conventional "Z-Bar" applications as described hereinafter.

According to a second aspect of the invention there is provided a building comprising an outside wall structure being located on the exterior of a building, at least one insulation member located on the outside wall for retaining heat in the building, a cladding member to cover the insulation and a plurality of wall anchor members each comprising a back plate attached to the outside wall structure by a fastener, a wall anchor member portion extending at a right angle from the back plate, a fastening member of the wall anchoring member extending downwardly at a right angle from the wall anchor member portion and an elongated strip extending across and attached to the fastening member of more than one wall anchoring member.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
One embodiment of the invention will now be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which:
Figure 1 is a vertical cross section of the present invention.
Figure 2 is an isometric view of the present invention.
Figure 3 is a vertical cross section of a prior art device.

Figure 4 is a vertical cross section of a prior art device.
Figure 5 is a vertical cross section of a prior art device.
In the drawings like characters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the different figures.
Turning firstly to the prior art arrangement shown into figure 3 and figure 4 the prior art of the "Bailey T-Stud" and the "Insulok Channel" shows in installation of the system the nail is inserted through the entire insulation creating a large hole in which air may pass through. If the nail is installed in the wrong position on the wall the nail has to be removed and leaving a hole in the insulation and the wall that is unable to be sealed.
Also in the prior art of "Bailey" and "Insulok" the system is not strong enough to support the insulation thereby causing the insulation to droop down and losing the thermal bridging.
In referring to Figure 5 the prior art of the "Z-Bar" shows that the system does not hold the bottom edge of the insulation thereby losing the thermal bridging effect. Also the system is a continuous ten foot strip which involves so much unnecessary metal losing the thermal bridging. The "Z-Bar" is not easily removed and is expensive.
Turning now to the present invention, a cladding system 1 for a building 1A shown in Figures 1 and 2 has an outside wall 2, insulation 3 and cladding 5. The insulation 3 is mounted on the outside wall by a mounting bracket 7.
The mounting bracket 7 consists of a back plate 9 which is of flat metal construction and is fastened to the outside wall 2 by a nail 11. The nail 11 is inserted through a plurality of nail holes 10. The back plate 9 is tightly mounted on the outside wall 2 such that the back plate is parallel to the outside wall 2.
Between the back plate 9 and the outside wall 2 is a layer of seal 2A which helps reduce heat loss.
Extending at a right angle from the back plate 9 is a first horizontal member 13 which is located on the first ledge 4A of the insulation 3. The first horizontal member 13 has a plurality of holes 14 which create a thermal bridging which stops the transfer of cold to the outside wall 2. A step 17 extends downwardly at a right angle from the outer edge 13A of the first horizontal member 13.
The step 17 is parallel to the back plate 9. The step 17extends downwardly to the second ledge 4B of the insulation 3. Located on the second ledge 4B is a second horizontal member 16. The second horizontal member 16 extends at a right angle from the step 17 and is parallel to the first horizontal member 13. The second horizontal member 15 has a plurality of second holes 16 which create a thermal bridging which stops the transfer of cold to the outside wall 2.
A first flange 19 extends downwardly at a right angle from the outer edge 15A of the second horizontal member. The first flange 19 is parallel to the back plate 9 and is approximately half the length of the second horizontal member 15 so that a second flange 21 can extend upwardly at a right angle from the outer edge 15A of the second horizontal member 15. The second flange 21 is parallel to the back plate 9 and is approximately half the length of the second horizontal flange 15 and the same length as the first flange 19. The flanges 19 and 21 run parallel along the outside wall 3B of the insulation 3. The flanges 19 and 21 support the insulation 3 in a vertical orientation. The flanges are spaced horizontally along the wall at a selected distance apart.
An elongate strip 23 covers a plurality of flanges. The elongate strip 23 has a vertical side 33 which is parallel to the flanges 19 and 21 and is of appropriate size so that it can fully cover the flanges 19 and 21. At respective sides of the vertical side 33 of the elongate strip 23 is a first elongate strip flange 29 and a second elongate strip flange 31. The first elongate strip flange 29 is located on the top end of the vertical side 33 and extends inwardly towards the insulation 3 and is parallel to the horizontal members 13 and 15. The second elongate strip flange is located on the bottom end of the vertical side 33 and extends inwardly towards the insulation 3 and is parallel to the horizontal members 13 and 15. A groove 35 is formed along the insulation 3 such that the elongate strip flanges 29 and 31 can be inserted so that they create a seal around the flanges 19 and 21 reducing cold air entering through the cladding system 1. Inserted through the elongate strip 23 and the first elongate strip flange 29 is a second nail 25. Inserted through the elongate strip 23 and the second elongate strip flange 31 is a third nail 27. The nails 25 and 27 ensure that the elongate strip 23 is tightly mounted onto the insulation 3 so that the cladding system 1 is efficiently sealed.
Since various modifications can be made in my invention as herein above described, and many apparently widely different embodiments of same made within the spirit and scope of the claims without department from such spirit and scope, it is intended that all matter contained in the accompanying specification shall be interpreted as illustrative only and not in a limiting sense.
