ES285284U - Frame member for use with a plurality of modular construction blocks (Machine-translation by Google Translate, not legally binding) - Google Patents

Abstract

Frame member for use with a plurality of modular, consumable building blocks to form an opening, said blocks being stacked into courses forming a wall of a building structure and each block including a pair of side plates and a pair of transverse spacer members at each end of said plates overcoming one plate of another to create a block of rectangular configuration, and adapted to receive the concrete therein, each side plate having top edges that include separate pin protrusions, directed upwards and lower edges including its corresponding slits, and each side having end edges including slits, said frame member including: a pair of jambs of vertical structural columns, each of which includes a front plate portion having outer marginal walls a part of which a stop protrusion extends along each of d said column jambs and spaced between said outer marginal wall thereof, and said column jambs in each of said outer marginal walls are bent inwardly forming spaced flanges of said front plate portion generally parallel with said front plate portion and one extending in the direction of another, and a plurality of slits formed through each flange; a head member extending between said vertical structural column jambs and attached thereto, said head member having a cross-sectional configuration similar to said jambs including slits formed through said flanges and with the aligned stop protrusion with said stop projections of said jambs; said column jambs and said head member are positioned on said wall so that the flanges of said column jambs are applied against the end edges of said multi-course building blocks and that the flanges of said headboard are applied against the edges lower ones of a plurality of blocks forming a row above said head; and connecting means for joining said column jambs, and said head member with said blocks so that said combination of wall and frame member is fixed to each other; said connector means for said head is a clip member of a thickness adapted to extend through said slits and is generally T-shaped and and the leg of said t extends through adjacent aligned slits of said head and said block and the upper part of said t is longer than said slits and said leg of the aforementioned t is bent so that the members are blocked from each other.
