MOUNTING DEVICE FOR CONCRETE WALL STRUCTURES AND THE LIKE FiledApril 25, 1931 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 a Q N R Patented Aug. 29, 1933 UNE'EEE) STATES PATENT MOUNTING DEVICE FOR CONCRETE WALL STRUCTURES AND THE LIKE Application April 25, 1931. Serial No. 532,924
' 5 Claims. (01. 72-105).
In the so-called inserts that areembedded in concrete walls and are employed for mounting structural items or units on the walls after their production, much trouble is experienced. in adjusting the holding elements of such inserts with respect to one another, so that the attached article can be properly mounted on and secured thereby.
The object of the present invention is to provide a structure of this type in which the mounting element can be adjusted in the insert and positively fixed, and the article to be supported can afterwards be placed in position and secured without the necessity of loosening or affecting the mounting of the holding device.
In the accompanying drawings:
Figure 1 is a view in elevation of a portion of a concrete wall, showing a plurality of inserts constructed in accordance with the present invention mounted therein.
Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view throughone of the inserts in place and on an enlarged scale, and illustrating an angle bar mounted o the concrete wall thereby.
Figure 8 is a sectional View on the line 3 of Figure 2, but showing the structure free of the wall. 7
Figure l is a front elevation with the stud in section.
Figure 5 is a vertical sectional view through the main box member.
Figure 6 is a similar View of the light metal case for said box member.
Figure 7 is a perspective view of said casing element.
Figure 8 is a perspective view of the main body.
Figure 9 is a detail perspective view of the anchor head.
In the embodiment disclosed, a box is employed that is embedded in the concrete in a well known manner, so that its front face is flush or substantially fiush with the face of the wall. This box member, as shown, consists of a main body generally U-shape in cross section and of relatively heavy metal. It comprises a front wall 10, side walls 11 and rearwardly and outwardly flared anchor loops 12. The front wall 10 is provided with a longitudinal slot 13, and on opposite sides of said slot, and on the rear face of the .wall are serrations 14 that extend substantially the length of the slot 13. The box is completed by a casing element of lighter gauge material than the main body and comprises a rear wall 15,
a top wall 16 and a bottom wall 17, this casing element fitting between the side walls 11 and constituting a complete rear and top and bottom C closure for the box. The walls 16 and 1'7 terminate at their front edges in'olfset flanges 18 and 19 that extend beyond the ends of the front wall 10. Ears 20, struck from the top and bottom walls 16 and 17, constitute abutments for positioning the casing, and the flanges 18 and 19, preferably are notched, as shown at 21, to receive nails that canbe driven into the form for holding the box inplace prior to the pouring of the concrete. secured to the body element by having the edges of the rear wall 15 Welded to the rear portions 1 the side walls 11, as shown at 22 in Figures 2 and 3.
It will be understood that these boxes are initially and temporarily secured to the inner faces of the forms prior to the pouring of the concrete and when the concrete is poured, it will surround the box, leaving the front face of the front wall substantially flush with'the wall, while the loops FFICE 1 The casing element 15 is preferably 1 2, being embedded in and surroundedby the concrete, will-effectively hold the box in place.
For the purpose of attaching articles, such as shelves, angle bars and the like, the following structure is employed. A stud 23 is provided for each box and has its ends threaded, as shown at 24 and 25. This stud is passed through the slot 13 and screwed on the rear threaded portion 24, within the box, is an anchor head 26 provided with a serrated front face 27 that interfits with the serrations 14 on the rear of the front wall 10. The stud 23 has a firm bearing against the rear wall 15 of the box and by rotating it, it will be evident that the head 26 will be caused to interlock with the front wall 11 so proper adjustment and fixing of the stud prior to the application of the article to be fastened by it, which is an important factor in mounting such articles. For example, assuming a beam or angle bar of ten or more feet is to be mounted on a concrete wall, a set of these boxes is embedded inthe wall, as indicated in Figure 1, the proper position of the end studs is found, a line is mounted on said end studs, and'the intermediate. studs can then be adjusted to such line, after which the article, as for example, an angle bar 30, shown in Figure 2 can be placed on the studs and secured by the nuts 28. This greatly simplifies and makes accurate the mounting of such parts, and overcomes a serious difiiculty where it is necessary to first place the article, as 31 on the studs and then adjust and fasten them.
From the foregoing, it is thought that the construction, operation and many advantages of the herein described invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art without further description, and it will be understood that Various changes in the size, shape, proportion and minor details of construction may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention. Furthermore it may be used in various locations, and not only in side walls, but in ceilings also.
What I claim, is:
1. In means for mounting structural members on concrete structures, a boxing for embedment in the concrete or the like, said boxing having a backing wall and a front wall that is open, a holding and supporting stud that passes through and is adjustable in the front wall and abuts the back wall, an anchoring head adjustably mounted on the rear portion of the stud within the boxing and having an adjustable holding engagement with the rear side of the front wall when the stud abuts the rear wall, and a head for clamping a structural element between it and the front wall of the boxing, said head being adjustably mounted on the front portion of the stud that projects beyond the boxing and movable thereon sufiicient for clamping the structural element in place.
2. A boxing for embedment in the concrete or the like, having a rear wall, a front wall having an elongated slot therein and serrations along the slot, a stud that passes through the slot and projects outside the boxing, said stud having its ends threaded, an anchoring head threaded on the portion of the stud within the box andhavingc portions that interfit the serrations, the stud being movable through said head when so interfitted to bear against the rear wall, and a clamping nut adjustably threaded on the projecting end of the stud and through which the stud extends, said nut operating to clamp a structural element against the wall.
3. A box for embedment in concrete or the like having an open front, a stud that passes through the open front into the box and also projects therefrom, said stud being transversely adjustable in the box, means for positively anchoring the stud against movement in the box, and means adjustably'mounted on the projecting end of the stud and having a movement thereon toward and from the front wall of the box for clamping a structural member thereon after its position has been fixed by the anchoring means.
4. The combination with a concrete or like wall, of a plurality of boxes embedded therein and having outer open sides, studs extending into and projecting outside the boxes and laterally adjustable therein, means in the boxes for fixing the studs against movement and in adjusted relation in their respective boxes, and devices adjustably mounted on the projecting ends of the studs for securing behind them an article thereto after said studs have been fixed.
5. A means for mounting structural units in concrete and the like walls including a box having a substantially U-shaped body providing a front and side walls, the front wall having an opening and the side walls having flared loops attached to their corners and forming anchors, a'second substantially U-shaped back member that interfits with the body member between the side walls in advance of the anchor loops and forms a top, a bottom and a rear wall, an article holding device that enters the opening in the front wall, and means in the box for fixedly securing the holding device in place.
