SUPPORTING-TIE FOR ROD.
Application sied april 22, 1915.
fb uit fic/mm it' may concern.'
lie it known that I, Jason B. NEEVEL, a ft' u of the lUnited States, residing at in the county' of Jackson and lrtate of il/nssouri, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Supporting- Ties for Rods, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.
The invention relates to supports and ties for concrete reinforcing rods and seeks to provide an improved support and tie of simple and efficient form wherein the metal is out and formed to give increased strength with a less amount of material and no waste of stock, two 'supports being provided and so arranged that whether the tie be applied to a single rod or crossed rods the rod crossing the tie transversely will always be positioned centrally over the support so that the tie will standnnore rigid, the particular sliape also leaving the full width of the marial midway between the supports which reatiy increases the stiffness and Supporting strength. of the tie.
Supports and ties are necessarily cut from straight bars of metal. and owing to the very low price at which they are sold it is very advantageous to so shape the material as 'lo employ the least amount of stock for each tie and yet retain strength and rigidity.
'it is essential that the support and tie iin in an upright position. while the rods are being applied vand afterward and that ther possess sufficient strength to sustain immense loads as many wagon loads of reinforcing rods in handling preparatory to placing in the supports and ties are often piled upon the rods that have been placed in the supports and ties ready to receive 1ie concrete. For these reasons the greatest .t fmgth with the least amount of material is of great importance.
The present invention seeks to provide an 'oved support and tie for concrete reorcing rods that may by bending the arms of be secured to single rods or crossed .s securely ybinding the rod or rods to theJ tie and supporting means to support the rods in a separated position from the surface to which the support and tie may be secured so that the rods may be embedded in the concrete that may be poured about them.
A further object of the invention is to so shape the support and tie that the greatest Specification of Letters Patent. y Patented rigging. 2d. 1mi 5.
Serial No. 23,109.
amount of metal will be positioned. immediately underneath the point of intersection of crossed rods and immediately underneath the center of the bearing of a single rod when the support and tie is applied to rodsl on an upward facing surface, whereby the greatest amount of strength is attained with the least amount of metal.
The invention consists in the features of "improved construction hereinafter set forth,
horizontal angle of ninety degrees from that' of Fig. l. Fig. 3 is a view in elevation of the support and tie applied to a single rod. Fig. el is an inverted plan view of the sup port and tie showing but one rod. Fig. 5 is a view of the sheet'metal as it is cut from the bar of stock and bef-ore it is bent to form a support and tie.
The plate l of sheet metal represents the material cut -to the required shape before being bent to form the support and tie, 'the end 2, 3. 4, 5 and 6 having been out from a companion tie having the same shape as end 7, 8, 9, l0 and ll with no waste of material, the slits l2 and 18 being cut at the same operation, and the lines 14, and 17 indicating the location of the bends that form the support and tie of the plate.
The supporting table 18 is approximately a plane surface the sides 19 and 2O thereof extending to the full width of the outside width over the arms 21, the arms being spaced apart to receive rods longitudinally of the table as rod 22 and standing upward at right angle from the table as dotted lines 21a before the tie is applied, the arms being bent to grip the bar or bars tightly against the table when applied as shown in Figs. 1,2 and 3.
Each of the ends 23 and 24 of the table extend approximately the same distance in opposite direction and are of a Lith equal to the distance between the arcas 21, the
The nail 27 is shown in Fig. 1 securing the support .and tie to the fragmentary structure 28 but this feature is subject mattery of claims in my copending application Serial No. 20,936 and is not claimed herein.
lt will be noticedthat the rod 29 of crossed rods as well as the rod 30 of a single rod application lies approximately transversely of the table 18 and approximately in the center of the length of the table, also that the table at this point as indicated by the l0- cationv of the 'ends 19 and .20 is as wide as .the greatest width of the support and tie,
the same being equal to the width over the arms 21, the table portion of the support and tie being so shaped for'the purpose of strengthening the central portion thereof, which is well known to be the ordinarily weak point owing to they concentration of weight.
The location of the arms 21 to position the bar 29 andthe bar 30 centrally with reference to the length of the table 1S has the further advantage of placing'equal weight on each of the supports 25 and 26 and less;
ens the liability of their cutting into the wood of the structure to which they are applied, also the support and tiewill stand very much more rigid and have lessfinclination to tip over which is also very advan-f tageous.
By bending the arms fromthe end portions ofthe metal and leaving the table 18 the full width thereof a thinner metal may 35 be used than would otherwise be required were the arms cut and bent from the central portion lof the table and a thinner metal 'results in the lowering of the cost of the 'material to produce one or any given numv ber of the support and ties.
What I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In means concrete reinforcing rods, the combination of a supporting table, a pair of arms rising from vsaid table intermediate one end and the center thereof, each end of said table Ahaving the width .of the distance between width of said arms, and asupport extend? ing from each end of said table. l
3. The combination ofl a table, said table being wide at the center of the length thereof, Asaid table being of a lesser width `at each end than at-the center of 'the length thereof, a support projecting from each end of said table, and arms projecting from said table bywhich reinforcing rods may be secured thereto.
In testimony whereof I aix my signature 7o .in the presence of two witnesses.V
