Definitions

• This invention relates to a junction fastene especially in construction of roof structures such as roo trusses for connection between two rafters and between rafters and a roof beam, the junction fastener comprising two opposit parallel vertical disposed perforated sheets.
• roof trusses in construction of roof trusses, these may b prefabricated and transported by a vehicle to the building site, or assembled on the building site.
• the prefabrication of the roof trusses is difficult, especially due to the transporatio to the building site.
• the roof trusses are preferaby assembled on the building site.
• the object of this invention is to provide a junctio fastener in construction of roof trusses which is self-supporting and self-centering, giving an easy and thus a quick assembling of the elements of the roof trusses and without requirement of special tools.
• the sheets are centrally connected to a horizontall disposed axis symmetrical device therebetween, the sheets bein in a mutual spaced relationship corresponding to the width of th rafters and the roof beam, the said axis symmetrical device i resting in corresponding recesses in the junction faces betwee rafters or between rafter and the roof beam.
• the junction fastener ar stated in the dependent claims.
• Fig. 1 is a side view of a junction fastener with sheets having rectangular shape
• Fig. 2 is an end view of the junction fastener on Fig. 1
• Fig. 3 is a side view of a junction fastener with sheets having triangular shape
• Fig. 4 is an end view of the junction fastener on Fig.
• Fig. 5 is a side view of a roof truss constructed by means of the junction fastener
• Fig. 6 is showing the detail A of the roof truss on Fig. 5 on a large scale with the junction fastener located in the junction faces between a rafter and a roof beam
• Fig. 7 is showing the detail B of the roof truss on Fig. 5 on a large scale with the junction fastener located in the junction faces between two rafters.
• Fig. 1 and 2 of the drawings is showing a junction fastener 1 with sheets 2 having rectangular shape by the connection between a rafter 8 and a roof beam 9 (Fig. 5 and 6).
• the junction fastener 1 is comprising two parallel sheets 2 with dimension 240 x 360 x 2,5 (mm) that are centrally connected to a pipe 3 having a diameter of 76 mm.
• the sheets 2 have perforations 6 with diameter 5 mm for fastening elements such as nails in the roof beam and the rafter.
• the end portions of the pipe 3 is situated in corresponding apertures in the sheet 2 and welded to the sheets on the outside along the circumference of the pipe 3.
• the spacing of the sheets 2 is corresponding to the width of the rafter 8 and roof beam 9, e.g. 40 mm.
• Fig. 3 and 4 of the drawings is showing a junction fastener 4 with sheets 5 having triangular shape by the connection between two rafters 8 (Fig. 5 and 7). It is obvious why the sheets have triangular shape in this case.
• the parallel triangular sheets 5 are right-angled and isosceles having cathetus length of 240 mm.
• the sheets 5 have perforations 6 with diameter 5 mm.
• the sheets 5 are made from the same sheet blank as the sheets 2 shown on Fig. 1 and 2.
• the pipe on Fig. 3 and 4 is connected to the sheets in the same way as the pipe 3 on Fig. 1 and 2.
• the spacing of the sheets 5 is corresponding to the width of the rafters 8, e.g. 40 mm.
• Fig. 5 of the drawings is showing a typical roof trus
• FIG. 6 and 7 constructed (Fig. 6 and 7) by means of the junction fastene according to the invention.
• roof trusses By the construction of roof trusses firstly the roo beams (9) and the rafters 8 are measured and cut. In the face of the roof beams and rafters forming the junction face therebetween (Fig. 6 and 7) are measured and made the semi cylindrical recesses having a diameter corresponding to th diameter of the pipe 3.
• a junction fastener 1 with sheets having rectangular shape is fastened to the lower end of a rafte
