Definitions
- the present invention relates to a beam or runner having a generally inverted T cross section that is used in a support grid for suspended ceilings.
- Suspended ceilings typically require a support grid comprising a plurality of interconnected beams for supporting ceiling tiles or panels, light fixtures, air diffusers, etc.
- the beams also referred to as runners or tees, have a generally inverted T-shape, with a reinforcing bulb at the top, a vertical web extending downwardly from the bulb, and opposed horizontal flanges at the bottom of the web for supporting drop-end ceiling panels.
- the beams also typically include connectors on their ends to permit end-to end connection between adjacent beams.
- the beams are typically made in a roll-forming operation in which a flat strip of sheet metal is sequentially deformed into a tee that is symmetrical in cross-section about its vertical axis, with the web having a double layer of sheet material and the opposed flanges each having a single layer of sheet material, as is well known in the art.
- Efforts are continuously being made to reduce the manufacturing costs of the grid members.
- One approach is to reduce the cost of materials by, e.g., reducing the amount of material used to make the grid members. This may be done most efficiently by reducing the thickness of the sheet material from which the grid members are formed. However, if the thickness of the sheet material is reduced, care must be taken to insure that such a reduction in thickness does not compromise the structural integrity of a ceiling grid system assembled from such grid members.
- a main runner for a suspended ceiling grid system having a combination of features that permit a reduced thickness of the sheet material from which the main runner is formed, while maintaining the structural characteristics of the min runner. This results in a runner that is more economical to manufacture (because less material is required), is easier to handle, particularly in bulk or carton quantities (because each runner is lighter in weight), and is easier to cut.
- a beam or grid tee has a cross-section generally in the form of an inverted T, with a central web of a double thickness of sheet metal, a pair of panel support flanges extending from one edge of the web, and a reinforcing bulb extending from the other edge of the web.
- a main runner in a first aspect, includes integrally-formed first and second end connectors extending from the first and second ends of the central web, respectively, past the flanges.
- the connectors facilitate end-to-end attachment of a first main runner to a second main runner.
- the first end connector is displaced out of a plane defined by the central web in a first direction and the second end connector is displaced out of the plane defined by the central web in a second direction opposite to the first direction, with each of the first and second end connectors having a distal edge.
- Each of the first and second end connectors further comprises a rectangularly-shaped embossment extending out of a first side of the end connector, the embossment being defined by a proximal edge, a distal edge, an upper edge and a lower edge.
- First and second spaced-apart locking tabs each having a proximal tapered camming surface and distal locking surface, extend out of a second side of the end connector, the distal locking surface being substantially in alignment with the proximal edge of the embossment, such that the distal locking surface of the locking tabs engage the distal edge of the end connector of the second tee.
- the two layers of forming the web of the beam are secured to each other by a first row of longitudinally spaced stitches at the upper end of the web adjacent the bulb and a second row of longitudinally spaced stitches at the lower end of the web adjacent the flanges, with the stitches in the first row being staggered relative to the stitches in the second row.
- a lower cap is applied to the flanges so that the free edges of the flanges are bent back on themselves along with the edges of the cap to provide a hemmed flange.
- the vertical dimension of the bulb is increased and the upper corners of the bulb are rounded.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a main runner for suspended ceiling grid system in accordance with the present disclosure.
- FIG. 2 is a side view of the main runner of Fig. 1.
- Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the main runner taken along line 3-3 of Fig. 2.
- Fig. 4 is an end view of the main runner of Fig. 1.
- Fig. 5 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of an end connector of the main runner taken along line 5-5 of Fig. 2.
- FIG. 6 is an enlarged fragmentary portion of the end view of Fig. 3 showing details as to the hemmed flange.
- Fig. 7 is an enlarged fragmentary portion of the end view of Fig. 3 showing details as to the reinforcing bulb.
- a main runner or tee 10 for use in a suspended ceiling comprising a reinforcing bead or bulb 12, a central web 14, and a pair of opposed flanges 16 for supporting ceiling panels or tiles, all as is well known in the art.
- the grid member includes integrally- formed first and second end connectors 18 extending from the first and second ends of the central web 14, respectively, past the flanges 16.
- first and second end connectors 18 extending from the first and second ends of the central web 14, respectively, past the flanges 16.
- first end connector 18 is displaced out of a plane defined by the central web 14 in a first direction“X”, while the second end connector would be displaced out of the plane defined by the central web in a second direction opposite to the first direction“X”.
- Each of the first and second end connectors have a distal edge 20.
- a strap 22 adjacent each end of the central web 14 is deformed out of the plane of the central web in a direction ⁇ ” opposite to the adjacent end connector, so that the strap 22 is configured to receive an end portion 24 of an end connector of a second tee.
- Each of the first and second end connectors 18 further comprises a rectangularly-shaped embossment 26 extending out of a first side of the end connector, the embossment being defined by a proximal edge, a distal edge, an upper edge and a lower edge.
- the two layers of the web 14 are preferably secured to each other by means of locking stitches or lances 34 that mechanically join together the two layers of the web 14, thus providing the main runner 10 with added resistance to torque.
- the stitches 34 may be of any configuration known in the art. In one embodiment, the stitches have a configuration such as that shown in U.S. Patent No. 5,979055, which is incorporated herein by reference.
- the two layers of forming the web 14 of the main runner 10 are secured to each other by a first row 36 of longitudinally spaced stitches 34 at the upper end of the web 14 adjacent the bulb 12 and a second row 38 of longitudinally spaced stitches 34 at the lower end of the web 14 adjacent the flanges 16, with the stitches 34 in the first row 36 being staggered relative to the stitches 34 in the second row 38.
- Placing each row of stitches 34 as close to the adjacent bulbl 2/flanges 16 is desired so as to maximize the spacing“D” between the two rows of stitches.
- the spacing between the two rows 36, 38, together with the stitches 34 in one row being staggered relative to the stitches 34 in the other row, provide greater rigidity and also avoids stitches in the area of the slots 40 that receive the connectors for cross tees associated with the main runner in the assembled suspension grid, thus avoiding potential interference between the stitches 34 and the connectors of the cross tees.
- a lower cap 42 is applied to the flanges so that the free edges 16a of the flanges 16 are bent back on themselves along with the edges 42a of the cap 42 to provide a hemmed flange.
- the cap 42 also provides for increased section properties for the main runner 10 due to the additional mass provided by the cap 42.
- the bulb 12 of the runner 10 is modified to provide for a greater beam height than a standard runner configuration. More specifically, the vertical dimension of the bulb 12 is increased and the upper corners 44 of the bulb 12 are rounded. The rounded corners 44 help to avoid interference between the bulb 12 and light fixture housings that are supported in the assembled grid system.
- the bulb 12 has a height of 0.515” and a width of 0.250”, with the corners of the bulb having a radius of 0.093”, while the runner has an overall height of 1.640”.
- the enhanced strength provided to a main runner having the combination of features described above permit the runner to be formed of thinner material than the prior art runner without compromising the beam strength of the runner.
- the thickness of the sheet material from which the main runner is roll formed may be reduced on the order of 20% (e.g., from 0.015” to 0.012”) [00030]
- the main runner has been described in terms of certain preferred embodiments, there is no intent to limit the invention to the same. Instead, the invention is defined by the scope of the following claims.
