1,960,078 METAL PARTITIONSCRIBER John A.
Bolmsack, Cleveland Heights, and
EdwardHeller, Cleveland, Ohio, assignors to The E. Hauserman Company, Cleveland, Ohio, a corporation of Ohio q Application July9, 1929,-Serial No. 377,050 14' Claims. (01. 189-34) This invention relates to metallic partitions, and more particularly construction where joining againstoldsurfaces; and itis among theobjects of the invention to provide a construction adaptable to various conditions ofwallsandceilings encountered. A further object is the provision of a construction which can be taken down and be readily reerected in the event of necessity for removal. Other objects and advantages willappear as the description proceeds.
To the accomplishment of the foregoing and related ends, the invention, then, consists of the features hereinafter fully described, and particularly pointed out in the claims, the. following description and .the annexed drawing setting forth in detail certain structure embodying the invention, such being illustrative however, of but a,
few of the various ways in which. the .principle of the invention may be employed.
In said annexed drawing:
Fig. 1 is an elevation showing a portion of a.
partition in accordance with the invention,ythe surrounding structure being iii-section; Figs. 2, 3 and 4 are detail sections taken respectively on planes indicated by the lines II-II, III-III and IV--IV, Fig. 1 Fig. 5 is a perspective view of a detached clip; and Fig. 6 is a fragmentary detail of a flange of the vertical/member.
Referring more particularly" to the drawing,
there is shown a partition comprising panel units b, b assembled with a cornice c and a vertical support member 2). Between such structure and the.
adjacent wall to be connected to is a section comprising members 41 extending to engage in a wall connector, as a wall channel :2. Thelatter, in the form of a mold having rebent flanged edges, is adapted to engage against the wall, which in old construction encountered is usually of a' plaster finish, and to further facilitate good engagement therewith, the web of such channelor mold may have extrusions or semipunchings m such as to embed and primarily provide against shifting. Within the channel member is an internal spacer a, which may be of wood or hollow metal and may be continuous or in the form of blocks spaced at intervals. In its preferred form, such spacerstands out beyond the flanges of the channel, and is of a cross section narrower against the web and widened at its outer portion. It may be placed in position and fastened directly to the wall by suitable plane or expanding fastenings, or in some instances it is sumcient to provide a wedge across from an adjacent vertical-member for instance by a thrust wedge or strut 1) (Fig. 1).
The support members 1) comprise in general a vdinal slots 1' adapted clip k. .The latter is of slip over the shape and having a groove in its web for the receptionof the panel stretcher. The flangesi' of,
are provided with longituto j receive tongues't of a generally channeled form having flanges or wings k and a connecting web or bodyw. Such clips are of stamped sheet metal .of suitable gauge, and at wingsand web are this together with the cutout or narrowed web portionw, allows of a slight springing or forcing of the wings k, sufficient yielding being had that the wings may be spread to allow the tongues t to flanges and into the slots 1 and interlock therewith. A beading or reenforce k may be incorporated in the wings in therstamping, to further strengthen the structure without 'necessarily-undue weight.
The panel unit b with end vertical member i is set in position, and the cornice member 0 placed above it and extending to the wall. The clips k such vertical member may now be brought into assembly with the vertical member 1', the wings of the clips being spread sufficiently to allow the tongue t to slide over the flanges i and seat into the slots i interlocking therewith. The scriber sheets a in their preferred form are provided with an offset, and afford a finish molding having a flange a further rebent towards and parallel to the body of a sheet. With such construction, the plane edge of the scriber maybe inserted between the fiangeof the channel mold e and the spacer block 1, the scriber plate for such positioning being swung around angularly with respect to the plane of the partition, as indicated in dotted lines spacer a acting as a fulcrum, the molding margin of thescriber is brought against the vertical member z'. At the same time that the plate a is swung into itsfinal position, its upper edge, preferably provided with-an offset 0, Fig. 2, is inserted into the recess of the cornice, being lifted as necessary, so as to snugly engage therewith. By a sharp blow the flange a is snapped over and behind locking projections k .on the clip. The final appearance is thus that of a finished post with a stretcher extending therefrom to the Wall.
the juncture between bent in an easy'curve, and
in, Fig. 4. On now swinging the plate inwardly, the edge ot the For a neat and consistent effect at the floorengaging portion of the scriber element, a mold f is desirably employed, and in its preferred construction, this may be made up of two generally angle-shaped sheet metal members nested together'such that two flanges, as at i may be welded or otherwise fastened together, while the mold with the scriber sheet.
other flanges are slightly spaced apart, the outer angle member having its upstandingflange further rebent as at f to present a finished appearance, and the irmer flange i may extend higher, in order to permit easy initial assembly of the It will be understood that this is accomplished before the scriber sheet is swung around into its final position, and by reason of the telescopic engagement of the mold with the scriber or plate a, final adjustment down snugly with the floor may be readily had.
Plinths g may be attached to the verticals below, finishing the joint at the floor and making aneat contact therewith.
In a similar manner, scriber sections may be connected between a partition and the ceiling as required. Obviously also, the details as described in their preferred form may be varied, as for instance the notching in the clip may-be changed, or the notches may be shaped to support the brace wedge; again, the offset sheets may be omitted or the contour of the cornice may be varied, and the floor mold may be varied in shape or be omitted entirely. The wall mold may be varied to such an extent that the sheets may be fastened directly to the internal spacer, and the clips may be clamped or otherwise applied to the verticals or be made in more than one part.
And in general, other modes of applying the principle of the invention may be employed, change being made as regards the details disclosed, provided the means stated in any of the following claims, or the equivalent of such, be
employed.
