Application filed January 25, 1926.
My invention relates to improvements in furring brackets for securing wire lath in space-d relation to the wall sheathing of stucco structures, in which a spacing ele- 2; inent is normally frictionally held on a driven element, and is an improvement over the wire fasteners disclosed in my, Patent No. 1,551,775; one of the objects of the present invention is the provision of a spacing element embodying a strip of sheet metal bowed flat ways intermediate its ends in the form of an arch, having one or more reinforcing ribs extending across said arch.
With the foregoing and further objects and purposes in view, my invention resides in the Combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the exact embodiment of the invention herein disclosed can be made within the scope of what is claimed without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the accompanying drawings- Figure 1 is a view in elevation of a fur ring bracket constructed in accordance with my invention, disposed against the wall sheathing of a structure, preparatory to attaching it thereto, and a portion wire lath supported thereby; Figure 2 is a medium vertical sectional elevation of the bracket in its final position attached to the wall sheathing, a portion of the wire lath confined between the spacing element and the head of the driving element, and a section of the stucco composition applied thereto;
Figure 3 is another view in elevation of the bracket attached to the wall sheathing, and a cross sectional view of the wire lath confined between the crown of the spacing element and the head of the driven element;
Figure 4 is a sectional view of the spacing element on line 4'i of Fig. 5, and a side elevation of a fragmental portion of the driven element.
Figure 5 is a top plan view of the spacing element, and portions of the Wire lath;
Figure 6 is a bottom plan view of the spac ing element; and
Figure 7 is a longitudinal sectional view of the spacing element on line 7 -7 of Fig. 5.
Referring to the drawings in detail, throughout which like reference characters .te like parts:
Serial No. 83,756.
The numeral 1 designates the wall sheathing of a stucco structure, and consists preferably of boards nailed across the face of the studs and like frame timbers forming the frame work of the walls of thestructure,
adapted to receive a coating of stucco composit-ion.
The wall sheathing may, if desired, be provided with a covering of building paper 2. The designation wall sheathing when the same appears hereinafter, is to be taken to include any building paper or the like that may be disposed against the face thereof.
3 designates the pointed shank, and 4 the disk-shaped head, of the driven element or nail of the present furring bracket, while 5 designates the spacing element thereof, and which comprises a strip of sheet metal having its intermediate portion bowed fiat ways upwardly in the form of an arch 6, and having its ends struck outwardly in opposite directions to form a pair of end lips 7.
The apex of the arch 6 has an opening 8, through which projects the shank 3, the latter adapted to fit tightly against the sides of said opening to resist removal from the spacing element, but slidable therethrough when said shank is operatively forced in the wall sheathing against which the spacing element is seated.
9 designates a pair of laterally spaced upwardly struck concavo-convex reinforcing ribs, which extend preferably from the outer end of one of the end lips 7, across the arch 6 and terminate at the free end of the opposite end lip, on opposite sides of the opening 8. The reinforcing ribs 9 are intended both for providing rigidity to the comparatively thin sheet metal from which the spacing element is formed, and for providing means engageable with the wire lat-h for limiting lateral movement thereof on the spacing element in a direction away from the shank 3, whereby when the nail is driven in the wall sheathing the head 4: may engage said wire lath for binding it fixedly on the spacing element. The reinforcing ribs 9 arepreferably disposed in parallelism and on opposite sides of the shank 3 and at slight distances from the latter to provide suitable lath seating space indicated by 10, 10.
The end lips 7 are adapted for seating against the wall sheathing for supporting the spacing element.
'lhe spacing element is preferably assembled on the shank 3, in the relative position best shown in Fig. F1, and thus assembled,
the brackets are applied for attaching the wire lath to the wall sheathing, by projecting the forward endof the bracket includingthe spacing element through any of the meshes of the lath, with the nail 8 on one side of one the wires ofthe lath, and one of thercin'forcing ribs 9 on the opposite side thereof, after which the nail is projectei'l in the'wall sheathing until the head t ei'igages and binds the lath wire-firmly against the spacing element and the latter against the wall sheatl'iing.
,-Ob'viously, the wire lath 1.1 may be disposed between either of the ribs t) and the shank 'It is also to be understood that there may be a wire disposed on each side of the shank.
Any number of the brackets may be employed for attaching the lath. I have found that disposing them at intervals of about eight inches provides ample spacing and astening for the various types of lath at present generally used for stucco reintorcen'ient, including the wire lath commonly known poultry Wire. I,
After the application of the lath to the wall sheathing with my improved furring brackets, the stucco composition 12 is preferably applied by spreading it on the wall sheathing and on and around thd lath and the exposed portions of the brackets until a stucco coating of suitable thickness is obtained.
Iclaimr i 1. In combination, a sparing element embodyinga strip of flat metal bent to form an intermediate arched portion having at its free ends a pair of opposed outwardly extending end lips, a ,pair of laterally spaced concave-eon\"ex ribs termed in said end lips and extending into said arched portion, and a cooperating driven element extending tlnrough the apex of said arched portion.
2. 1n combination, a spacing element embodying a strip of tlat metal having its merging portion bent thereby forming an intermediate arch portion and a pair of outwardly projecting end lips at the free ends of said arch portion, said end lips disposed in the same plane, an upwardly struck eoncm'o-conrex rib extending across each of saidend lips, a'ndan upwardly struck con- Caro-convex rib extending across said arch portion and merging atits opposite ends with said first named ribs, and a cooperating driven element projecting through said arch portion along one side of said second named rib.
