This inventionrelates to means for securing panels in frames. More specifically it relates to panelled construction such as the interior partitioning of buildings and to the holding of the panels by means which are adjustable for varying thicknesses of panel.
Our invention comprises short brackets or clips commonly called glazing clips which are positioned at intervals aboutthe panel frames and which have cooperating stud and slot engagein their frames to compensate ment with the frameswhereby they may be ad- I justably moved to and from the panels.
One of the objects of our invention is to provide a device of the character described which will be adjustable through a wide range to accommodate varying thicknesses of panel and to prevent breakage in the use of glass panels by compensating for inequalities in the thickness thereof f 7 'Another object is to assemble and hold the panel in position without the aid'of putty or the like. v
Another object is to provide a device simple in its construction and operation and inexpensive inits production." g I [These and other objects will more fully hereinafter appear. .7
- While our invention is susceptible of use with framework of wood or the like, we shall for purposes'of illustration describe. it as applied to metallic framing.
In the drawing: o Fig. 1 isa perspective view showing a panel framejwith the panel held in position therein according to ourinvention;v
Fig. 2 is a side elevational view of the same';
Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken on the linear- -50 of Fig. 2, and d Fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view such as on the line yy of Fig. 2 but illustrating a slight modification.
Referring to the drawing; the panel framing, here shown as being made from sheet metal, indicatedat 1,'has formed integrally therewith a molding member 2 which extends about the inner side. of the f panel frame and functions as an abutment against which one side edge of the 7 panel 3 seats. 5 l
10 Claims. m1. 189 -78) As a means for engaging the other side edge of the panel and holding it firmly against the abutment 2 we employ a plurality of angular sheet metal members'l. These members, which we shall hereinafter refer to as glazing clips or clips, are provided with panel engaging arms 8 and frame engaging arms 91 p v 'The clips 7 are provided with headed stud members 10 which are adapted to engage and cooperate with the slots in the frames. This stud member 10 is herein shown as formed integral with the clip 7 and may be so made by drawing out from the central portion of the arm 9 a deep cylindrical protuberance. The top of the protuberance is then cutaway and the edges of the metal are bent back upon themselves to form the head. This headedstud, however, may be, provided in any other suitable mamier. M In operation, after the panel 3 has been seated against the abutment 2, the headed studs 10 of the clips 7 are passed through the enlarged portion 4 of the slots in the frame and the clips are then moved through the elongated slot extensions 5 and 6 until the arms 8 are brought into intimate contact with the panel. 7
The slots are provided with two-way extensions primarily so that it will not be necessary, in fabricating the frame members 1, to make right and left elements, as would be necessary with a oneway slot if it were desired tohave them run in a downward direction toward the panel, By utilizing'two-way slots, the frame members 1 are interchangeable for both sides of the frame; In addition to this advantage it is possible to employ two glazing clips in each slot, one of which will seat in the upper extremity of the extension 5 and the other in the lower extremity ofthe extension 6.
In any event it is to be noted that the elongated extensions of the slots are slightly narrower than the heads of the studs 10 and that they approach the panel at a slight angle so that the clips will be retained in looking position frictionally by engagement with the panel and slot.
Theclips 7 are provided with lateral flanges 11 and 12, the flange 11 being slightly offset from the arm 8 and the flange 12 being slightly rounded or bent inward. These flanges serve to resiliently support a finish or molding member 13 short broken away sections of which are shown in place in Fig, 1. These finish molding members, which are usually complements of the abutment 2, run through the length and width of the frame and engage the flanges of all of the clips.
These finish members are provided with opposed flanges 14 and 15 and they are positioned by hooking the flange 14 over the offset flange 11 after which the flange 15 is pushed into position over the rounded edge of the flange 12.
It will be noted that when this finish member is positioned in engagement with the clips it will resist any tendency which they may have to back away from the panel because of vibration or shocks.
When our device is used with glass panels it may be found desirable to provide cushioning means between the panel and one of its side engaging members. This may be accomplished placing a piece'of felt, rubber or any suitable cushioning material between the panel and the flange 8. We have shownfor this purpose, in full lines in Fig. 3 and in section in Fig. 4', a band or strip of rubber 16 which surrounds the flange 8.
While one of the purposes of our invention is to eliminate the use of putty and itsatt'endant objectionable features, nevertheless a surrounding filler of putty, rubber, felt or the like may be employed to accomplish a tight seal, as shown at 1'? in Fig. 4.
Our invention is adaptable for use with panels of any suitable material such as glass, wood, comjections on one side of the frame, or we may employ, glazing clips on both sides of the panels.
