E' R BOYLE FURRING CLIP Filed April 13, 1929 Patented May 26, 1931 *IJNHTE) sr FUBRING CLIP Application filed April 13,
This invention relates to a furring clip made from a single piece of sheet material and possessing peculiar advantages in form and utility. Devices of this kind must insure uniform spacing from the wall to which they are attached and at the same time must allow suflicient freedom of adjustment to permit the satisfactory attachment of various forms of metal lath or the like. As outlined further on the improved clip is readily manufactured cheaply and lends itself to ease of use. 7
Some instances occur where the peculiar form of the lath which is used demands that the clip support a portion of the lath while the attachment is made to the main part of the lath. Again it is frequently desirable to provide for a sliding relative movement between the lath and the clip after the former has been attached.
lVhere wooden spacing blocks are used, a clip of this kind must be so arranged as to allow the use of tie wires without interfering with the spacing block.
For purposes of illustration I have illustrated in the accompanying drawings the preferred form of this invention, the said drawings including,
Fig. 1 a plan view of the blank;
Fig. 2 an end view of the clip;
Fig. 3 a side View thereof;
Fig. 4 a side view of one modification and Fig. 5 a side view of a further modified form of the clip.
From the blank of sheet metal there is out out a strip 1, of which one end 2 is notched at 3 to offer increased resistance against accidental dislodgment of the clip from the wall. A shoulder 1 is struck up from an intermediate point of the end 2 and along one side edge thereof. The mid portion 5 of the clip is preferably corrugated to provide the convolution 6. Two holes 7, 7 are punched out of the lower channel of two of the corrugations.
The opposite end of the strip, 8, is also notched at 3 and also has a similar shoulder 4:.
The metal strip is bent into U-form with the ends 2 and 8 spaced parallel and about the distance of the thickness of the ordinary 1929. Serial ll'o. 354,384.
building brick. The shoulders 4, 4 extend transversely from the ends and outwardly as shown in Figs. 2 and 3.
The space between the ends 2 and 8 accommodates a block 9 which extends sub- I stantially from the shoulders a, 4: to the nearer side of the convolution 6. As shown in Fig. 8 nails 10, 10 are driven through the holes 7 and secure the mid-portion 5 to the spacing block 9.
In use the clip so formed is manually pushed into the building wall promptly after the assembly of the latter so that the ends 2 and S will straddle the block 11 or its equivalent. T he ends 2 and 8 are readily pushed through the mortar or cement be tween the bricks 11 but after hardening the bond is sufficiently rigid to prevent acci dental dislodgement of the clip.
The convolution 6 permits the attachment of the metal lath 12 by means of the usual tie wires 13, after which the plaster 1 1 is ap lied.
s illustrated in Fig. 4, additional strength may be given to the ends 2 and 8 by using double thickness of metal. This is accomplished by extending the end 8 sufiiciently long to permit a length 15 to be doubled back on the end 8, across the center portion 5 and then to terminate at the extremity of the end 2. This serves to confine the block 9 into which the nails 10 are driven as above described. Further this provides a smooth wall for guiding the tie wires 13 within the convolution 6. In some instances metal lath is used having a folded or high rib 16 which fits within. a convolu tion and prevents slackening of the metal lath after the tie wire 13 is secure.
In Fig. 5 the extension 15 is carried across from the end 8 to the end 2 in spaced relation to the straight central portion 5, thus permitting the free sliding movement of the tie wire 13 vertically of the clip. This will permit the strain to be evenly distributed over a series of such fastening elements.
The advantages of the device as above described will be readily apparent and it will be correspondingly obvious that many variations in minor details are included within the scope of the attached claims.
What I claim is:
1. A furring clip formed of an integral piece of sheet metal bent to form a central part, spaced parallel ends, shoulders eX- tending transversely from intermediate points of each end, and a filling block between the ends from the shoulders to the central part.
2. A furring clip formed of an integral piece of sheet metal bent to form a central part spaced parallel ends, abutments thereon, a filling block between the ends, said block being of less depth than the distance from the abntments to the front of the central part to provide an open space between the block and the central part of the clip.
3. A furring clip formed of an integral piece of sheet metal bent to form a corru- -gated central part, spaced parallel ends,
abntmcnts thereon, a filling block between the ends and fastening means between the block and the central part.
4. A fur-ring clip formed of an integral piece of sheet metal bent to form a central part, spaced parallel ends, abutments there on, a filling block between the ends, said central part supporting a lath or the like, and tying means therefor.
In testimony whereof, I afiix my signature.
E. R. BOYLE.
