Description
REUSABLE TEMPORARY SAFETY RAIL POST
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a reusable temporary safety rail post.
Specifically, the present safety rail post is an apparatus for constructing safety fences for containing elevated work areas during residential or commercial construction. The post can be installed temporarily with minimal effortand is reusable on multiple construction projects.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
It is commonplace, and required by law in many jurisdictions, to construct a temporary safety fence around raised work areas. This provides fall protection for workers working above the ground. Occasionally, workers construct temporary railings made of lumber found around a typical construction site. However these temporary wooden railings lack strength, are susceptible to weathering, waste valuable lumber and are not based on a single proven design to ensure safety.
The prior art describes a number of solutions to address this problem.
US Patent No. 6,908,075 to Nichols discloses a safety rail system designed for residential housing constructions having cantilevered second stories. The Nichols safety rail is cantilevered away from the first floor walls to allow for the overhanging second story, and once the separate rail posts are linked together using rails constructed from dimensional lumber, the elevated work area is contained. However, the Nichols safety rail attaches to the first floor studs by means of wood screws in a semi-permanent manner and cannot be easily removed once the cantilevered second story floor is installed. This results in the Nichols safety rail being difficult to remove once the second story is complete and the safety rail is no longer necessary.
US Patent No. 5,314,167 to Holloman discloses a temporary rail structure designed to attach to the floor joist header of the second story. This temporary rail utilizes common lumber to construct the railings as in Nichols and attaches via a U shaped yoke that clamps tightly to the outer floor joist header. Linking multiple Holloman posts together with lumber rails of typical lumber results in a safety rail that contains the work area, however the aforementioned U shaped yoke does not allow plywood subflooring to be installed while the rail is in place. Therefore, the Holloman rail must be removed when the subflooring is installed, which typically occurs at a time when the safety rails are still required, as the second floor walls have not been completed.
US Patent No. 4,666,131 to Kettelcamp, Sr. et al. discloses an adjustable guard rail stanchion which clamps to the underside of a roofing truss. The Kettelcamp guard rail stanchion is easily installed and removed, however it is particularly designed for a roofing application and cannot be readily modified for the needs of second story work area containment.

-2-Accordingly, there is a need for a safety rail post that is quick and easy to install and remove, reusable, strong and adaptable to different types of residential house constructions.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention overcomes the deficiencies of the prior art by providing a safety rail post that can be easily installed during construction and quickly removed after the safety rail is no longer necessary. It does so without limiting access to the work structure while providing an effective safeguard against an inadvertent fall by a worker.
The reusable temporary safety post is comprised of an upright stanchion with a bottom bracket arrangement. During use, the safety rail posts are installed on the work structure, the method of doing so varying depending on the type of construction employed, as discussed below. Once installed in place, the separate reusable safety posts can be linked together using rails consisting of typical construction lumber, which fit into angular railing brackets provided on the upright stanchions. The rails are easily secured in place using nails or wood screws inserted through a hole provided in the angular railing brackets.
In the case of a typical two story house construction, the reusable safety posts are secured to the work structure according to a first aspect of the invention.

Once installed in place, the separate reusable safety posts can be linked together using rails consisting of typical construction lumber, which fit into angular railing brackets provided on the upright stanchions. The rails are easily secured in place using nails or wood screws inserted through a hole provided in the angular railing brackets.
In the case of a typical two story house construction, the reusable safety posts are secured to the work structure according to a first aspect of the invention.
Specifically, a slotted female plate is secured near the top of the first story wall sheathing on the
-3-outside. This slotted female plate mates with an insertable male plate located near the bottom of the upright stanchion. Each post is additionally further secured to the lower wall structure by means of a lower support plate located at the bottom of the upright stanchion. Two by four safety rails may then be installed to span the gaps between adjacent posts. Removal consists of the preceding steps carried out in reverse order.
Another aspect of the present invention, which involves a reusable temporary safety rail post with a cantilevering bottom bracket, is used in applications where the structure's second story is cantilevered out from the first story. In this arrangement, the cantilevered bottom bracket is designed with an inverted U-shaped yoke that fits over the header of the first floor wall. The cantilevered design extends the reusable safety post away from first floor wall such that it does not interfere in the construction of the overhanging second story floor. The two by four rails are installed between adjacent posts in the same manner as described above. Removal is accomplished by simply removing the rails and "unhooking" the safety posts from the top of the first story wall.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in greater detail and will be better understood when read in conjunction with the following drawings in which:

-5-DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
With reference to Figure 1, showing the safety rail post used for non-cantilevered constructions, the present invention consists of reusable temporary safety post 10, which is comprised of an upright stanchion 12, a number of angular railing brackets 14, and a bottom bracket assembly 30 which is used to connect the safety posts to the upper edge of the first story wall as will be described below. These components may be manufactured from metal, with aluminum and galvanized or stainless steel being preferred.
With reference to Figures 2 and 3, bottom bracket assembly 30 consists of first and second plates 22 and 24 strongly connected to stanchion 12, such as by means of permanent welds, and a bracket 20, which slidingly connects with first plate 22, and which itself is securely connected as shown in Figure 3 to the upper edge 6 of first story wall 5, In the case of a typical two story residential housing construction where there is no overhang of the second story floor over the first floorwalls, post 10 is installed as follows.
Referring to Figures 2 and 3, bracket 20 is fastened to wall 5 using wood screws or nails 8 inserted through pre-drilled holes 21 in the bracket's base plate 19 into the wall's exterior sheathing or the wall studs behind the sheathing. This can occur before or after

These components may be manufactured from metal, with aluminum and galvanized or stainless steel being preferred.
With reference to Figures 2 and 3, bottom bracket assembly 30 consists of first and second plates 22 and 24 strongly connected to stanchion 12, such as by means of permanent welds, and a bracket 20, which slidingly connects with first plate 22, and which itself is securely connected as shown in Figure 3 to the upper edge 6 of first story wall 5, In the case of a typical two story residential housing construction where there is no overhang of the second story floor over the first floorwalls, post 10 is installed as follows.
Referring to Figures 2 and 3, bracket 20 is fastened to wall 5 using wood screws or nails 8 inserted through pre-drilled holes 21 in the bracket's base plate 19 into the wall's exterior sheathing or the wall studs behind the sheathing. This can occur before or after
-6-the first floor wall has been erected, but preferably occurs as the completed wall structure is lying flat on the ground floor as shown in Figure 4 for easy access.
Once bracket 20 is installed post 10 can be installed. This is achieved by sliding first plate 22 into bracket 20 previously mounted onto wall 5. As can be seen best in Figure 2, bracket 20 includes a pair of opposed flanges 25 welded onto base plate 19 to define a slot 26 between them sized to slidingly receive plate 22. The lower ends 28 of slot 26 inside the flanges can be closed or stoppered for example by depositing a bead of excess welding material or by any other means known in the art. This controls the degree of insertion of plate 22 into slot 26. The dashed weld lines 23 indicate where first plate 22 is welded to upright stanchion 12 (not shown in Figure 2).
Once safety post 10 is installed into bracket 20, it is then additionally secured by fastening lower support plate 24 to wall 5 using nails or wood screws 8 inserted through slots 27 formed or cut into the lower edge of plate 24. Lower support plate 24 provides enhanced stability to the entire assembly, and is located at the lower end stanchion 12 on the same side as plate 22. Once all the support posts 10 are connected, wall 5 can be rotated onto its upright position as shown in Figure 4.
With posts 10 in place, safety rails 45, typically two by fours, can be installed with the length of the rails determined by the requirements of the particular application as shown in Figure 5. The safety rails can be installed before or after wall 5 is rotated into its

This controls the degree of insertion of plate 22 into slot 26. The dashed weld lines 23 indicate where first plate 22 is welded to upright stanchion 12 (not shown in Figure 2).
Once safety post 10 is installed into bracket 20, it is then additionally secured by fastening lower support plate 24 to wall 5 using nails or wood screws 8 inserted through slots 27 formed or cut into the lower edge of plate 24. Lower support plate 24 provides enhanced stability to the entire assembly, and is located at the lower end stanchion 12 on the same side as plate 22. Once all the support posts 10 are connected, wall 5 can be rotated onto its upright position as shown in Figure 4.
With posts 10 in place, safety rails 45, typically two by fours, can be installed with the length of the rails determined by the requirements of the particular application as shown in Figure 5. The safety rails can be installed before or after wall 5 is rotated into its
-7-upright position, but for ease of installation, and for safety reasons, the rails are preferably installed before the wall is moved upright. Ideally, angular railing brackets 14 are sized to receive two rails placed side by side and secured by a nail or wood screw inserted through a hole 17 provided in each bracket. In one embodiment of the invention, each post 10 may have three railing brackets 14.
Removal of posts 10 is accomplished by removing rails 45 and then pulling posts 10 upwardly to disengage plate 22 from bracket 20. Plate 24 will simultaneously slide past nails or screws 8 in slots 27. Brackets 20 and fasteners 8 can be removed later or left in place to be covered by brick or siding.
In another application, the present invention may be modified for use in housing construction in which cantilevered second stories are employed. This occurs forexample when a second story floor extends out past the first floor walls in order to accommodate a brick fascia on the outside of the first floor with vinyl or aluminum siding or a similar cladding on the second floor.
In this embodiment of the present invention, the reusable temporary safety post has a bottom bracket arrangement adapted to fit over the upper edge or header of the first floor wall.

In this embodiment of the present invention, the reusable temporary safety post has a bottom bracket arrangement adapted to fit over the upper edge or header of the first floor wall.
-8-Reference will now be made to Figure 6 showing a safety post 100 modified for this particular application.
As will be seen post 100 includes a stanchion 120 and one or more rail brackets 140.
The stanchion and brackets are substantially the same as described above with respect to the embodiment of Figures 1 to 5. In this embodiment however, plates 22 and 24 and bracket 20 are replaced by a cantilevering yoke 210.
Yoke 210 consists of a horizontal plate 215 that stanchion 120 is welded to, and an inverted U-shaped bracket 220 that is sized to closely fit over the header 7 of lower wall 5 as shown most clearly in Figures 7 and 8.
Installation can occur before or after the second story floor 234 is installed, but necessarily after the first floor walls have been erected. Bracket 220 is fitted over header 7 of first floor wall 5. If the second story floor is already installed, posts 100 must necessarily be installed between the second story floor joists. When installed, plate 215 passes beneath the fascia 235 of second story floor 234. Plate 215 is long enough that stanchion 120 easily clears the fascia. Since plate 215 passes beneath the fascia, it does not interfere in the installation of plywood or underlay to the upper surface of the second story floor, nor in the erection of the second story walls. Once the posts 100 are installed, safety rails 415 are installed in the same manner described above to form a fence around the second story floor as shown in Figure 9.
As will be seen post 100 includes a stanchion 120 and one or more rail brackets 140.
The stanchion and brackets are substantially the same as described above with respect to the embodiment of Figures 1 to 5. In this embodiment however, plates 22 and 24 and bracket 20 are replaced by a cantilevering yoke 210.
Yoke 210 consists of a horizontal plate 215 that stanchion 120 is welded to, and an inverted U-shaped bracket 220 that is sized to closely fit over the header 7 of lower wall 5 as shown most clearly in Figures 7 and 8.

Bracket 220 is fitted over header 7 of first floor wall 5. If the second story floor is already installed, posts 100 must necessarily be installed between the second story floor joists. When installed, plate 215 passes beneath the fascia 235 of second story floor 234. Plate 215 is long enough that stanchion 120 easily clears the fascia. Since plate 215 passes beneath the fascia, it does not interfere in the installation of plywood or underlay to the upper surface of the second story floor, nor in the erection of the second story walls. Once the posts 100 are installed, safety rails 415 are installed in the same manner described above to form a fence around the second story floor as shown in Figure 9.
-9-Plate 215 is not only long enough to clear fascia 235, it is also long enough that should a load be applied to stanchions 120, it flexes in a spring-like manner. This prevents torque applied to the stanchions from inadvertently disengaging bracket 220 from header 7. As an additional safety measure, the two opposing vertical sides 221 and 223 of bracket 220 have minimum vertical dimensions depending on the closeness of the fit of the bracket over header 7.
In one embodiment constructed by the applicant, yoke 210 is constructed from 1/4"
sheet steel. Bracket 220 is sized to fit over header 7 with 1/16 of clearance.
Vertical side 221 is 2 3/4" high and side 223 is 4" high. Plate 215 extends outwardly from the lower edge of side 223 approximately 8'/2".
Although fasteners can be driven through bracket 220 into header 7, this is not preferred due to the added effort and difficulty of removing the fasteners once the second story floor is installed.
Removal of posts 100 is accomplished by disassembling the safety rails, and removing brackets 210 by rocking and sliding them off headers 7.
The above-described embodiments of the present invention are meant to be illustrative of preferred embodiments and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Various modifications, which would be readily apparent to one skilled in the
