FIG. 7 shows more detail of the embodiments ofFIGS. 1-6 ; -
FIG. 8 shows more detail of the embodiments ofFIGS. 1-7 ; -
FIG. 9 shows more detail of the embodiment ofFIG. 1 ; and -
FIG. 10 shows a second embodiment of the present invention. - Before explaining the disclosed embodiment of the present invention in detail it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of the particular arrangement shown, since the invention is capable of other embodiments. Also, the terminology used herein is for the purpose of description and not of limitation.
-
FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of abrace 100 for use in a tri-level safety rail. A U-shapedlip 104 is designed to fit around a gutterboard, which is a horizontal bordering structure typically positioned near to a roofline of a structure such as a house. It is important that thelip 104 be strong, sturdy, and solidly fixable to the gutterboard, as thebrace 100 must be able to withstand a significant amount of force exerted thereupon. - It is the purpose of the present invention that a group of
braces 100 be combined in the aggregate to provide a type of safety fence or safety rail around the roof of a house or other structure. One common use for such an arrangement is during the installation, repair, or tear-down of a roof of a house, although this is but an example and the present invention should not be considered as limited exclusively thereto. Amovable bracket 108 holds the bottom level of the safety rail. Thebracket 108 can be affixed in position by finger-screws or other securing means (not shown inFIG. 1 ). Two fixedbrackets -
FIG. 2 shows more detail of the bottom end of thebrace 100. A plurality ofholes 204 are positioned within thelip 104 so as to provide strength and durability for attaching it to the gutterboard, or other portion of the structure requiring a safety rail. InFIG. 2 , themovable bracket 108 has asecuring means 216. At the opposite end of thebracket 108 existholes bracket 108. Theseholes bracket 108 could for example by a 2×4, although the present invention should not be considered as limited exclusively thereto. -
FIG. 3 is a view of the base of abrace 100 secured in place and attached to a gutterboard. Thebrace 100 differs from that shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 in that the support brackets ofFIG. 3 face toward the roof. InFIGS. 1 and 2 , it is apparent that thesupport brackets brace 100 ofFIG. 3 , as with those inFIGS. 1 and 2 , is attached to the gutterboard via a variety of nails or screws located inholes 308 which penetrate through thelip 104. A securing means 216 holds the body of thebrace 100 securely in place. -
FIG. 4 is another view of the base of thebrace 100 fromFIG. 3 . InFIG. 4 it is apparent that there can bemultiple holes 308 within thelip 104. Indeed, themore holes 308, and more securing mechanisms passing therethrough such as nails or screws, the more solidly thelip 104 and therefore theentire brace 100 will hold to the gutterboard. However, an increase in the number of holes and securing mechanisms used will also increase the time necessary to install (and later remove) thebrace 100. - The
brace 100 can have a securingweld 312 or other solidifying means at its base. This is because it is so important that thelip 104 and body of thebrace 100 be very solidly attached. The main portions of the mechanical stress exerted on thebrace 100 will exist largely at its base. -
FIG. 5 again shows the base of abrace 100, in which amovable bracket 504 differs from the earliermovable bracket 208 in that thebracket 504 includes a cylindrical-shaped housing 512, for accommodating a pipe-shaped mechanism such as that used in chain-link fences. This is because, as stated, the present invention is intended to provide a type of safety fence or safety rail around the roof of a house or other structure. -
FIG. 6 shows abrace 100 supporting three levels of safety rail 804, which inFIG. 6 are 2×4s, although the present invention should not be considered as limited exclusively thereto.FIG. 7 shows a pair ofbraces 100 attached to a gutterboard at a roofline, where thebraces 100 are supporting cylindrical pipes which are acting as safety rails. -
FIGS. 8 and 9 show perspective views of safety rails supported by thebrace 100 of the present invention. InFIG. 19 it is apparent that both 2×4s as well as pipe-rails can co-exist within the present invention. -
FIG. 10 shows another embodiment of the present invention. In the embodiment ofFIGS. 1-9 , the purpose of thedevice 100 is generally to install a new roof. In the embodiment shown inFIG. 10 , the purpose of thebrace 1000 is instead to tear off an existing roof for repair or replacement. In these circumstances, there may not be a gutterboard available, or it may be so badly deteriorated such that it is unreliable. - Use of the embodiment shown in
FIG. 10 is accomplished as follows. Atriangular device 1004 is attached to a roof beam which supports shingles which are to be torn off. Thetriangular device 1004, which is sometimes referred to as a roof-jack, is nailed into the beam using the three holes provided therein. Thetriangular device 1004 is carefully chosen so that its angles match with the pitch of the roof. Alternatively, thedevice 1004 can be adjustable in angle, so that that present invention could accommodate a variety of roof pitches. - Normally, the
device 1004 exists to create a foot layer or walkway, in which boards (e.g. 2×6) are inserted as shown inFIG. 10 , as a type of stepping beam or foot rail for the roofers to move about on the slanted roof surface with less difficulty. However, the present invention takes advantage of a different effect of attaching thedevice 1004, which is to create a vertical surface 1008. Thebrace 1000 is secured to this vertical surface 1008 via a slot orhollow securing mechanism 1012 in which thebrace 1000 can be vertically inserted. Additionally, the exact positioning of thebrace 1000 within the slot orsecuring mechanism 1012 can be fixed using a threadedsecuring mechanism 1016, similar to those used in the embodiment ofFIGS. 1-9 . - A third embodiment of the present invention exists, in which a brace can be used with masonry, bricks, walls, wall studs, or other non-roof vertical surfaces. In this embodiment, an attachment mechanism is securedly affixed to a wall or other surface. The attachment mechanism has extension members securedly joined thereto, where these members support a base receptacle for seating a brace, and also provide a walkway such as but not limited to 20 inches in width. This embodiment has the advantage of interchangeability of parts. The brace can be inserted into the receptacle, the triangular device, or even into a
U-shaped lip 104. Using such interchangeable parts, a construction company can purchase a smaller amount of braces, and insert them in the walls as the walls are being completed but before the roof is begun. After the walls are completed, by making some simple adjustments, the same braces can be used on the roof as well. Thus, it is not necessary to purchase separate safety parts for the roof and also for the walls. - It is anticipated that various changes may be made in the arrangement and operation of the system of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, as defined by the following claims.
