FIRE PROTECTION SPRINKLER SUPPORT SYSTEM
FIELD
The t disclosure relates to fire protection sprinklers and more
particularly, to a support system for mounting fire protection sprinklers within a drop
ceiling.
OUND
This section provides background ation related to the present
disclosure which is not arily prior art.
Fire protection sprinklers are commonly mounted in suspended
ceiling structures by a support bar and bracket assembly system wherein the
support bar is supported by a pair of end brackets which are mounted to a T-rail of
the drop ceiling. A center bracket assembly is commonly used for engaging a
sprinkler adapter to the support bar while a sprinkler head is suspended from the
sprinkler adapter through an g that is cut in a ceiling panel.
Various center bracket designs have been utilized for mounting the
sprinkler adapter to the support bar. However, center brackets have had
complicated designs and/or are cumbersome to install. Accordingly, it is desirable to
provide a center bracket design that is easy to install and that is simple to
cture.
With tional fire protection sprinkler support systems, the
support bar typically extends a full width of the space between opposing T—rails of
the suspended ceiling system. In on, the end support brackets typically extend
directly vertically above the T—rail to which it is mounted. In some applications, the
end ts and support bar can interfere with the lation of light fixtures and
other structures that are mounted within the suspended ceiling. Accordingly, it is
desirable to provide a support system for a fire protection sprinkler that does not
interfere with the installation of nt light fixtures and other structures within the
suspending ceiling.

for receipt thereof. Wing screw 64 is inserted through the re 46 ed in
the tab 44 of the support bracket 28 and is threadedly engaged with the threaded
boss 60 provided in the tab 61 of the hinge bracket 30. A bolt er in the form of
an O-ring 76 can be mounted to the wing screw 64 in order to keep the wing screw
64 from falling out of the aperture 46 in the support bracket 28 prior to installation.
The side legs 34 of the support bracket 28 can include internally extending
projections 80 which can engage the support bar 16 to aid in retaining the support
bracket 28 against the support bar 16 and to prevent the center bracket ly 20
from sliding freely relative thereto when the center bracket assembly 20 is in an
open ion.
With reference to Figs. 5-7, the end bracket assembly will now be
described. The end bracket assembly 18 can include an outside bracket 90 (Fig. 6)
and an inside bracket 92 (Fig. 7). The inside bracket 92 can be mounted to the
outside bracket 90 by a wing screw 94 as illustrated in Fig. 1. Alternatively, the
inside bracket 92 can be integrally formed with the outside bracket 90 as a bent tab
extending from the main body of the outside bracket 90.
The outside bracket 90 can e an angled body 96 having a
mounting tab 98 extending from an upper end thereof. ng tab 98 can include
an aperture 100 extending hrough for receiving a self-tapping sheet metal

screw 101 that can be screwed into an underside of the support bar 16. A pair of
side tabs 104 can extend from the ng tab 98 on opposite sides thereof for
engaging the support bar 16 etween. The side tabs 104 can be offset from
the aperture 100 so as to prevent rotation of the outside bracket 90 relative to the
support bar 16. The mounting tab 98 can be bent at an angle or of between 105°
and 135° relative to the angled body 96. More preferably, the angled body 96 is
angled at 120° from the mounting tab 98.
The outside bracket 90 includes an upper t surface disposed
at a lower end of the angled body 96. The upper support surface 108 is designed to
rest against a top of an upper bar of the T—rail of the suspended ceiling system. An
outer clamp face 110 extends downward from the upper t portion 108 and is
